  1. STATUS & STRATEGY OF PULSES CULTIVATION IN TRIPURA

  2. PULSES PRODUCTION STATUS

  3. Pulses: Demand Projection-Tripura

  4. SWOT ANALYSIS Strength: • Pulses can be grown in almost all types of soils/lands with minimum effort. • There is scope for increasing production through aggressive transfer of technology and critical input supply.  Weakness: • Cultivation in marginal/ rain fed condition.       • Inadequate seed availability • Poor crop management. • Inadequate/ non-scientific storage facilities.        • Inadequate processing and un-organized marketing

  5. SWOT ANALYSIS (contd.) Opportunities: • Large chunk of seasonal fallow land can be brought under Pulses (16400 hac.) at the end of 12th Plan. • Most suited crop for sustainable agriculture, multiple-cropping and inter-cropping systems. • Even with the available existing technology, there is vast scope to increase the production of pulses.

  6. SWOT ANALYSIS (contd.) Threats: • Highly prone to vagaries of nature such as drought, water logging etc. • Highly prone to damage by insect-pest, diseases, nematodes and weeds. • Cultivation on marginal lands. • With expansion of irrigation in command areas, the areas under pulses get shifted to sub-marginal land.

  7. PULSES TARGETS-2013-14 • Area coverage will be 14,280 hect. from existing level of 8400 hect. • Production target is fixed at 11000 MT from existing level of 6000 MT. • Productivity level will be increased to 775 Kg/hect from the existing level of 706 Kg./ hect.

  8. STRATEGIES FOR INCREASING PRODUCTION Area Expansion : • Utilization of Seasonal Fallow land:

  9. STRATEGIES FOR INCREASING PRODUCTION (Contd.) Increase in productivity: • Transfer of Technology with improved package & practices. • Ensuring availability of good quality HYV certified / improved variety of seeds • Life saving irrigation • INM, IPM • Improved Farm implements • Post Harvest Management

  10. PULSE SEED VILLAGE: • 10 Agri. Sub-Divisions have been considered for undertaking Pulse Seed Production Programme • Seeds of Arhar, Moong ,Black gram, Lentil and Field Pea will be produced

  11. PRODUCTION PLAN OF PULSE SEEDS Pulse Seed Village Programme: • Minimum 10 hectares will be covered. • To be taken up in selected pulse villages. • Multiplication of Seeds in Govt. Farms as well as in the farmers’ field. • Seed Certification under technical supervision of State Seed Certification Agency. • Storage of seeds in De-humidified go-down
