EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Introduction Agriculture is the way of life of the District. It provides sustenance for the vast majority of our population, but because of the failure of the crops in the last few years there has been a loss in the momentum which suggests a deeper problem in our strategy, correcting this is the main focus of the plan. The present comprehensive Agriculture policy after taking a careful note of the harsh realities backed by necessary figures and statistics has stressed the need to act on the following aspects. Agriculture To increase the crop productivity in the said plan the policy emphasised on the important of Micro – irrigation by providing subsidy to the micro irrigation equipment, dissemination of need based technologies and demonstrating the same at the gross root level so that farmers will be educated in identifying the constraints in the crop production. In the recent years organic farming is gaining importance, which also finds a place in the plan which certainly helps to maintain the soil health. Importance has been given to increase the area under irrigation both expanding the areas repair of old projects structures and constructing the new projects in the District. Horticulture Akola District blessed with soil and assumed rainfall situation for cultivation of irrigated horticulture crops like Citrus, Lime and dry land crops like Custard apple, Pomegranate but farmers are not getting better remuneration from crops due to various reasons like distress, irregular flowering, pest and diseases problem and decline in ground water etc. So plan emphasises more on construction of pack house, shed net and green house for controlled cultivation, HRD, rejuvenation of old orchards and community tanks for protective irrigation coupled with area expansion of fruits including the dry land horticulture crops and medicinal and aromatic plants. As mentioned above, the major constraints of the horticultural production is the irrigation and marketing. So importance has been given to bore well recharging, micro irrigation and rainwater harvesting with the help of community tank. Also about marketing emphasis was given on Grading House, Pack Houses, Training on Handling and packing, Strengthening of Farmers groups. etc Popularisation of Organic farming and providing and technical know –how to the farmers and exporting the same is stressed in the plan. Importance has been given to the processing of fruit crops especially the orange, lime, Aonla crops. District is known for onion cultivation but because of the greater fluctuations in the Prices of the Onion, majority of the farmers are deprived of the better prices, hence to avoid this plan emphases on the construction of Onion storage go downs so that they can avoid the distress sales. Efforts about motivation of farmers towards Onion seed Production. Watershed Development The focus of the plan is to conserve soil and moisture as well as to put to the best use according their capabilities to improve the overall productivity of the catchments in a holistic way. To achieve this, the plan emphasises on construction of farm ponds under RKVY, holistic watershed approach through NWDPRA and allied programmes. Promotion of in-situ soil water conservation on farmer's field with participatory method is also focussed.

Considering the fact that soils particularly in the intensive irrigated land and natural saline track area in the District are rapidly turning into saline and alkaline, the production of these areas can only be increased by treating them with soil amendments like gypsum and green maturing to reduce the effect of excess salts and promotion of use of BBF planters. Animal husbandry Development The plan concentrates on increasing the high yielding cattle and buffalo’s population of the District by providing necessary facilities. Along with up gradation of local cattle through effective A.I. programmes and A.I. delivery system, Strengthening of distribution of hatcheries involving SHG and producer associations, Breed village scheme for sheep and goat development and scientific infertility tackling programme for dairy animals also development of high- tech market facilities for meat and milk markets. Also emphasis will be given on increase in the no. of milk parlours at village level. Fisheries Development With the main objective of increasing the production of fish from tanks, river and reservoir fishery various development schemes finds a place in the District plan, placing greater importance on production cum employment oriented activities. With the increased demand for fish, all the tanks and ponds and village tanks in the District will be brought under fish culture also waterlogged and saline soils will be exploited for culturing fish. This can be achieving through strengthening of co-operative fishing societies, providing fish culture and assistance for purchase of fishing equipment. Social forestry Vast fallow land area is available in the District, which needs to be planted with various tree species and encouragement is given for community and private land plantation and Road Avenue. To make available a large number of sapling nurseries will be allotted to unemployed rural youths which provide rural employment. Farmer’s income will be increased only when they get the remunerative prices, in times of distress sales, the produce needs value addition which finds a place in the plan through Agro processing, Public private partnership participation and providing right information to the farmers by strengthening the extension system. Sericulture Development Akola District falls under non traditional area for sericulture; however scope exists for improvement. Hence the plan proposal includes subsidy for new plantations of mulberry, procurement of cocoons, and erection of raring shed with HRD activities. Districts Industries Development For overall socio economic development of the District, focus has made to strengthen the manufacturing industries and processing units. Also provision has been made to provide capital investment subsidy to new, expansion or modernised industrial unit. Agricultural Marketing Development Agricultural marketing plays a pivotal role in strengthening the economy of a producer with the main objective of achieving marketing efficiency District plan emphasise on the overall development by constructing the rural go downs, providing cold storage facilities grading units, packing units. Importance has been given for the organising fruit melas, producers- consumer’s exhibitions, Grain Mohotstava, Shetkari Bazar to promote the marketing. Irrigation Development

The division has proposed to irrigate an extensively large drought area in Akola District by constructing medium and small tanks, Bandhara and Barrages. The plan targets to increase irrigation potential from 15 % to 23%. The importance has been given to farm Water users Association in the canal areas for effective utilisation of irrigation water, renovation of old dam and new dam constructions. Also motivation towards Protective irrigation at critical stages of crops through Farm ponds Public Private Partnership For the anticipated growth of 4.0% in the District XII five Year Plan PPP finds to be an alternative with regard to the Value addition and contract farming in Soybean and Cotton crop and processing and packing units. Also Promotion of Oilseeds industries, production, Procurement processing and redistribution of certified seeds at gram Panchayat level, Establishment of organic retail sale points at District level, Establishment of cold storage and go downs, participatory organic farming and watershed development are some other areas wherein the PPP approach can play a vital role Impact on Farmers Income The prevailing average net income of the farmers when considered taking in to account the allied activities stands at Rs. 29564. The effort put in through the various activities taken up by the development departments is expected the farm family income to Rs 37125 at the end of XIIth Five Year Plan

CHAPTER I INTODUCTION

The C-DAP highlights the need to implant professionalism in extension service as a device for agriculture development in the country. This envisages the need to develop a cost effective and sustainable extension system to facilitate the farming community towards achieving prosperity and not merely productive. The C-DAP is being created in each District to achieve the above mention concept. The responsibility of C-DAP is to bring together researcher extension worker other stakeholders (including NGO societies co-operative and Private service providers and farmers to make on the basis of joint diagnostic studies District extension plan and recommendations for research to perform this responsibility the C-DAP has to develop a demand driven situation specified multi-agency oriented Comprehensive District Agriculture Project (C-DAP) The C-DAP thus a basic document which spells out the goals and the mode of organising and utilising the resources needed people money expertise facilities etc. The present mechanism of planning and implementation of agricultural and allied development programs is centralised and is in isolation with each other The present planning is mainly top-down in nature and is not done without participation of concerned departments extension workers and farmers. The feedback system is very weak and thus the real field problems are not brought before the research and extension planners. The extension or research recommendations are to general covering entire agro climatic zone. The problems in agriculture differ strikingly from situation to situation is therefore necessary to develop participatory location specific and need based research and extension recommendation and the activities to achieve those objectives of C-DAP . Immediately after independence extension was focused on human and community development. It subsequently shifted to food crop production view of food security. Later on the extension was used as tool in achieving Green Revolution. The extension activities were however limited to agriculture and other line departments like Animal Husbandry, Fisheries, and Social Forestry have primary focused on provision of subsidies inputs and services to farmer with little attention to extension. After the implementation of T and V system of extension it was recognised that it needed to be overhauled to agitate the needs of 21st century farmers. It was recognised that extension should be broad based utilising the farming system approach. That is to say attention should be paid to the needs of farmers in rained areas and to diversity extension programs into livestock horticulture and other high value commodities that are capable of increasing farm income. It is also realised that present system constraints weaknesses and gaps in Research Extension Farmers Linkage should be bridged. The all above factors the success stores in rural area the research and extension carried out by individual private organisation NGOs cooperative etc. should also be taken to consideration while formulating extension and research plans. The need for integrated local area plans, based on specific endowments and needs of each area, was stressed from the beginning of planned development. However, despite several reports and studies, only sporadic efforts and isolated cases of such planning could be located. It has therefore been decided by the Govt. of India that the 'District Plan Process' should be an integral part of the process of preparation of State's Five Year Plan. This was emphasized by the Hon’ble Prime Minister in his address to the National Development Council (NDC). Concerned by the slow growth in the agriculture and allied sectors, the National Development Council (NDC), in its meeting held on 29 May 2007 conceived a special Additional Central Assistance Scheme (ACA) and passed a resolution to that effect. The National Development Council has reaffirmed its commitment to achieve a growth rate of 4 % per annum. As agriculture growth is an essential element of the strategy to make growth more inclusive, the NDC in its resolution advised the State Governments to prepare

Comprehensive District Agriculture Plan (C-DAP) that will fully utilise available resources and will include allied agriculture sectors. In Akola District the C-DAP has been launched in 2007-08 and was followed accordingly. Present C-DAP is in line with the preceded C-DAP and is purely based upon participatory methodology developed by MANAGE Hyderabad. The Comprehensive District Agriculture Plan (C-DAP) is prepared by Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Akola for Akola District with the help of following departments and organisations:

Ø State Agriculture University Ø State Agriculture Department Ø State Animal Husbandry Department Ø State Fisheries Department Ø State Forest Department Ø State Dairy Development Department Ø State Sericulture Department Ø NGOs and farmers in the selected villages

Purpose of the C-DAP: The main objective of Comprehensive District Agriculture Plan (C-DAP) is to evolve an action plan for achieving sustainable agricultural growth with food security and cropping system that will improve farmers’ income. Along with that Comprehensive District Agriculture Plan (C-DAP) is to design an integrated and participatory action plan for the development of local area in general and agriculture and allied sectors in particular. It enables optimum utilization of scarce natural, physical and financial resources. C-DAP help to assess and plan for the infrastructure required to support the agriculture development. It is expected to establish linkages with the required institutional support services, like credit, technology transfer, ICT, research. It is hoped that this document will depict the general farming system picture of Akola District and information about plan for extension and research in agriculture and allied fields taking the farmers prosperity as basic concern. To rejuvenate agriculture during XI Five-Year Plan, the NDC (National Development Council) has set a target of achieving a growth rate of 4 per cent with the strategy of making agriculture growth more inclusive. To achieve this, the NDC in its resolution advised the state governments to prepare Comprehensive District Agriculture Plan (CDAP) which is a comprehensive documentation of agriculture and allied sectors, both in physical and financial terms. The Department of Agriculture, Government of India, in compliance to the above resolution and in consultation with the Planning Commission, has prepared necessary guidelines for the Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana (RKVY) scheme, to be known as NADP/RKVY. One of the important features of RKVY is to achieve 4 per cent annual growth in the agriculture sector during XI plan period by ensuring a holistic development of agriculture and allied sectors. The RKVY, a State Plan Scheme, intends to motivate respective states to increase public investment in agriculture and allied sectors by giving them much needed autonomy in planning and executing the same based on agro-climatic conditions. Through an integrated approach RKVY aims to achieve the goal of reducing the yield gaps, maximise returns to the farmers and bring about quantifiable changes in the production and productivity of the various components of agriculture and allied sectors. Under RKVY, the District is expected to formulate a District agriculture plan by taking into account the resources available from the on-going schemes such as Backward Region Grant Fund (BRGF), Swarnajayanthi Gram Swarojgar Yojana (SGRY), National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (NREGS),

Bharat Nirman etc., and such a District plan should aim at projecting the requirements for the development of agriculture and allied sectors within an overall development perspective of the District. The plan should also present the financial requirement and the sources of financing the agriculture development plans in a comprehensive way. Thus, the preparation of the District agriculture plan is an elaborate, exhaustive and iterative process. As such every care is taken to ensure the CDAP is properly and comprehensively made. The Process and Methodology Keeping the above objectives and guidelines, the District plan has been prepared considering the various parameters and modalities. As stated earlier, a holistic approach is needed for agriculture sector development. Hence, while preparing the CDAP, almost all the sectors/programmes concerning rural development, farming and vulnerable sections have been taken into consideration. The important sectors/programmes include: horticulture; sericulture; fishery; animal husbandry; minor irrigation; watershed; agricultural marketing; technology and extension; rural industries, rural credit etc. The CDAP for XI Five-Year Plan is prepared keeping the X Five-Year Plan parameters as benchmark. The main problems encountered in the agricultural sector namely, investment, gaps in the yields, production and productivity levels, infrastructure, technology and extension, interdependence of various sectors etc. have been analysed in detail. For the systematic and scientific planning, a SWOT analysis of the District has been done. Further, the growth drivers of the District, the innovative schemes suitable and supportive for higher growth in agriculture are included in the plan. The data base of the plan is both quantitative and qualitative. The former is based on secondary sources, and the latter on the observations and discussions held with various stakeholders like progressive farmers, elected representatives of Panchayat raj institutions (PRIs) at different levels, voluntary and non-governmental organisations. The CDAP is prepared broadly on the framework suggested by the Planning Commission i.e. decentralised and integrated approach. As per this direction, the plan preparation began with consultation process with stakeholders at different stages starting from the village (gram panchayat) level. The consultations began with leaders/model farmers, presidents and vice presidents and knowledgeable members of GPs. The same method was adopted at the TP and ZP levels. In particular, the members of Standing Committees for planning and agriculture were actively involved throughout the preparation of the CDAP. The concerned District Ministers were also consulted during the preparation of the plan. An exclusive planning team was constituted by the Chief Executive Officer of the ZP under the overall supervision of the Chief Planning Officer of ZP. Above all, guidance and advice was sought from time to time from the Scientists of the University of Agricultural Sciences, Bangalore and Economists and Experts in Decentralisation of the Institute for Social and Economic Change, Bangalore. The senior Officers of the Department of Agriculture at the state level were also provided opportunities for interactive discussions on the draft plan; they gave useful inputs and suggestions from time to time. Steps in preparation of C-DAP In order to prepare Comprehensive District Agriculture Plan (C-DAP), following steps were undertaken: Ø Orientation of District Level Officers and Scientist on C-DAP Ø Identification of Multidisciplinary teams of officers Ø Training of Multidisciplinary Teams Ø Identification of villages Ø Field survey Ø Compilation and presentation of data Ø Consolidation of data Ø Preparation of C-DAP report Ø Orientation of District Level Officers and Scientists on C-DAP

CHAPTER IV DEVELOPMENT IN AGRICULTURE SECTOR

Introduction: Agriculture sector continues to be the pivotal sector in the economy of Akola. The Whole District divided in four agro ecological situation i.e. 1. Shallow to medium type soil with high irrigation potential. Major crops includes soybean, Cotton, Tur, followed by citrus orchards and vegetables. 2. Natural saline track with deep black Cotton soil predominantly rain fed situation, Major crops are soybean, Cotton, Tur, Jawar, sunflower and gram. 3. Heavy rainfall zones, medium to heavy medium clayey soil, major crops are soybean Cotton, Jawar, floriculture crops irrigation mainly by bore wells followed by canal. 4. Non saline track with heavy to medium black soil with soybean and Cotton as main crops. Dairy is major subsidiary occupation as source of income.

Although yield levels of many crops in the District, as said earlier, are far below the productivity potential, there are instances of many farmers harvesting notable yields year after year. On field analysis, it is observed that the successful farmers, who are aware of the major constraints resulting in yield-reduction, immediately adopt the specific recommendations so that the reduction in yield is not considerable. The systematically disseminate the technology (lies) of crop protection and improvement, it is proposed to take up intensive constraint-specific demonstrations in all noted crops of the District with emphasis on one or two of the most productivity-influencing factors. The crops and the associated technologies to be demonstrated through cereals, pulse and oilseed development programme and Cotton development programme. Promoting Micro-irrigation: The District has hardly 9.00 per cent of irrigated area which calls for the urgent adoption of the micro irrigation technologies, so that irrigation potential can be enhanced thus contributing to the production. As the District is mostly depending on the ground water resources for irrigation ground water use has increased manifold. Keeping this view It is proposed in the Plan to provide farmers with the sprinkler and drip irrigation units at 75% subsidy and extend the existing area limit to a minimum of 5.00 hectares per farmer. Need based demonstrations: To systematically disseminate the technology (/ies) of crop protection and improvement, it is proposed to take up intensive constraint-specific demonstrations in all noted crops of the District with emphasis on one or two of the most productivity-influencing factors. Certified seed production: Among many factors that contributing to the poor crop productivity in the District, less use of certified seeds appears to be the most common factor attributing to poor productivity potential. Therefore, it is proposed to adopt a comprehensive approach to make available the certified seeds of all prominent crops in requisite quantities to all farmers over the Plan Period. The Plan is proposed in such a way that the seeds are produced in the farmers’ fields on a ‘Seed Village scheme’ (Grambijotpadan), with active participation of land army, SHG and NGO at village level, so that due to reduction in burden arising out of unnecessary cost incurred on transportation and other miscellaneous expenses, seeds are made available to the farmers at a relatively low cost. Since it is an uphill task for the institutions to co-ordinate seed production on a large scale on account of paucity of required infrastructure, it is planned to associate at least 50% of the same work to land army, SHG and NGO at village level. Organic farming:

Comprehensive District Agriculture Plan (C DAP) for Akola District 2012-13 to 2016-17

Page | 22

In recent years organic farming is gaining importance among the farmers as it has good influence on soil properties and crop health, it is proposed to make enriched organic manures and vermicompost available to the farmers at 50% subsidy .Also, there is a huge demand for the supply of green manures seeds, hence it is proposed to supply the green manure seeds in requisite quantities at a subsidy of 100% Increasing the area under irrigation: In the last five years a large number of development works have been taken up by the minor irrigation department. This provided irrigation for drought area of Akola to an area of 12840 ha. Also the protective irrigation and the available soil moisture can be increased through watershed development. Presently the develop watershed counts to 142674 ha. and it is proposed to develop the watershed at the area of 301297 ha. Encouragement to farm mechanization: The major threat of the District is the migration of labours from village to other non agricultural work. Under these circumstances agriculture is now dependent on mechanization. In this context it is needed to subsidize the supply of all types of tractors and tractor and bullock drawn implements at 33% and 25% subsidy respectively for small and marginal farmers and SC/ST and women farmers Encouragement for scientific storage: Storage of agricultural produce enables to get remunerative prices for farmers. Distress sales may be avoided. Storage facilities are also utilized for stocking of various inputs like seeds, fertilizers and pesticides for timely supply to farmers. Subsidies should be given to the Institutes or Self Help Groups or to the Registered Farmer Clubs. Post harvest management and Value addition: Post harvest management and value addition to the crops such as oilseeds, pulses and minor millets offers vast scope for agro processing. Small processing units should be supplied at subsidised rates. Participation of private entrepreneurs should be encouraged by awareness programmes at all the levels. The PHM and value addition in horticultural crops is also given due consideration. Scope for Public-Private Partnership Approach Involving the PPP approach in certified seed production from the time of seed distribution of procurement, certification and redistribution of certified seeds to farmers at the onset of a season can be done. Also, imparting trainings, arranging field visits, farmer-scientist-extension staff interactions, agricultural exhibitions, etc through PPP approach. The Management of Organic Villages can be done entirely through PPP approach. PPP managed organic produce sale points at District level can be initiated. Management and maintenance of Agro-processing units and storage of Go-downs and Community-owned organic manures, bio-pesticides and bio-agent production units can be established, strengthen and managed to its full potential through PPP approach The major crops of the District i.e. soybean and Cotton provides major area and higher scope for PPP. Infrastructure development: During the cropping season farmers are busy in their agricultural related works hence, it becomes difficult for the farmers to come to the training centres and equip with the recent technologies, so it is proposed to provide well equipped decentralised training centre at Taluka polyclinic so that farmers can be motivated with recent technologies with this media. A knowledge resource canter is proposed to establish through RKVY at KVK, Akola. Integrated crop management through farmers field schools: In the recent past, many crops have suffered due to the unpredicted break of pests and diseases. Bollworm in green gram and Cotton, Rust on soybean, leaf minor in ground nut, phytopthera on citrus etc., so there is

Comprehensive District Agriculture Plan (C DAP) for Akola District 2012-13 to 2016-17

Page | 23

a need to give attention on integrated management of these pests and diseases by bio-pesticides and integrated management methods through the farmers field schools by imparting season long training to the selected farmers about eco friendly pest control measures. Also, it is possible through adopting villages and making those and organic villages. Strengthening Extension: A coordinated consortium of the successful farmers, extension personnel and scientists at Taluka level to provide an on-the-spot solution to farmers’ problems. Strengthening the Extension wing of the ATMA and KVK alongside the departmental extension unit. Natural resource management module: To improve livelihood poor farmers of dry land area through the adoption of low cost integrated natural resources management technologies by developing micro watershed through remote sensing – G.I.S techniques and to develop ecologically sustainable farming systems.

CHAPTER V ALLIED AGRICULTURAL SECTORS

5.1 Introduction The 4.% growth targeted during the next FYP not only includes agriculture sector but also the allied sectors like horticulture, animal husbandry, sericulture, watershed, fisheries etc which plays a equally very important role in increasing the income of the farmers, hence, the comprehensive plan for allied sectors is also proposed and presented below. 5.2 Horticulture Development Akola District has diversified fruit and vegetable production which includes kagzi lime banana, papaya, and mandarin. Farmers are also diversified towards pomegranates. The horticulture industry generates income through its quality of fruit and vegetable production and productivity. It also creates employment opportunities and enhances nutritional security of the farmers in the District. They are very innovative and are involved in organic cultivation. Area under horticulture crops during 2011-12. Increased considerably in the District, to 13350 ha. with production of 188341 MT Akola owing to its very good soil and climate, is enriched with natural resources and suitable for growing export quality of kagzi lime banana, papaya, and mandarin. Utilization of these resources will strengthen horticulture industry. Identified potential Horticulture crops of the District

Fruits : kagzi lime, banana, papaya, and mandarin Vegetable : Onion, Tomato, Chilly, Cucurbits, okra and Brinjal and Minor veg-crops. Spice : Ginger, Turmeric Medicinal/Aromatic: Panpimpari, Safed Musali Flower : Gaillardia, Rose, Tuberose, Marigold.

Strategies for Horticulture development Ø Encouragement for production of certified planting material. Ø Area expansion of important fruit crops like kagzi lime, banana, papaya, and mandarin crops and

medicinal and aromatic plants. Ø Promotion of intercrop like medicinal and aromatic plants in orchards. Ø Introduction of high yielding varieties and scientific cultivation practices in vegetables. Ø Promotion of floricultural crops both as open field crops and under protected cultivation. Ø Efficient utilization of irrigation water through micro irrigation systems, thereby reducing the

juvenile period of perennial plants to increase productivity and quality of horticultural produce. Ø Bore well recharging on large scale. Ø Giving thrust for soil and water conservation with special reference to rain water harvesting. Ø Promotion of INM and IPM (including production of bio pesticides and parasites) Ø Promotion of organic farming by utilizing bio mass available for fruits and vegetable crops. Ø Rejuvenation of Orange orchards. Ø Promotion of primary processing and value addition to improve employment opportunities and

increase the per capital income. Ø Strengthening the market infrastructure like establishment of wholesale market in fruits and

vegetables and cold storages. Ø Extension services including providing logistics support like qualified personnel and mobility and

efficient utilization of mass media for dissemination of knowledge. Ø Encouragement of public, private Partnership.

Means to achieve strategies Ø In Akola District Area expansion of major crops like kagzi lime, banana, papaya, and mandarin will

be taken up under National Horticultural Mission. Ø Establishment of nurseries for production of elite planting materials will be taken up under

National Horticulture Mission. Ø Promotion of flower crop will be taken up under National Horticulture Mission. Ø Micro irrigation systems scheme is implemented utilizing funds provided under Micro Irrigation

scheme of union government with the state scheme. Ø INM/IPM and production of parasites under National Horticulture Mission and under state sector

scheme. Ø Organic farming under National Horticulture Mission. Ø Rejuvenation of old orange orchards under NHM. Ø Post harvest handling using funds of state government, NHM and District comprehensive

agricultural plan. Ø Marketing support through NHM and state scheme.

Supportive Service required Ø Research and development through Universities and research organizations. Ø Extension services through Krishi Vigyan Kendra. Ø Financial support through banks. Ø Infrastructure development like roads, marketing facilities through co-operative sectors in

collaboration with government institution. Ø Soil and water management and conservation through water shed department. Ø Regular supply of electricity.

Gaps in Research Ø Research on precision farming in vegetable and flower crops. Ø Research on crop diversification in new crops and proper planning to produce commodities as per

the need to realize higher returns for the investment made. Ø Developing sophisticated statically and mathematical model to analyse the data to take important

farming decisions. Ø Research on diseases forecasting units and bio control. Ø Research on organic farming and its certification.

Gaps in extension services Ø Lack of market led extension to create awareness about quality maintenance, grading, handling of

fresh horticultural crops and value addition, through organizing group meeting exhibition, Krishi melas, study tour, etc.

Ø Infrastructure lacuna like inadequate logistic support to the extension personnel at grass root level and lack of vehicle for movement.

Gaps in Processing Ø Modernisation of processing units for horticultural crops like grapes, mango, spices. Ø Establishment of food parks,

Gaps in storage Ø Lack of cold storage unit for better storage of horticulture produce and to avoid market glut and to

fetch better price in future. Ø Need to give emphasis for establishment of pack houses, cold chain and controlled atmospheric

storage.

Comprehensive District Agriculture Plan (C DAP) for Akola District 2012-13 to 2016-17

Page | 30

Gaps in Marketing Ø Inadequate marketing infrastructure like wholesale markets, national terminal markets, functional

infrastructure for collection, grading and scientific retail market. Ø Lack of public private partnership to expand regulated markets and to pump more money for

establishment of marketing infrastructure. Ø Lack of awareness among farming community to take up own marketing responsibility by availing

government subsidy. Ø Inadequate co-operative marketing system for horticultural produces. Ø Lack of initiatives to encourage contract farming to take up cultivation of medicinal aromatic

plants, vegetables and flower seed production. Ø Lack of strategies to exploit market potential available in the metro cities for organically produced

quality food. Regulatory issues/reforms required Ø Legislation for efficient use of water especially utilization of ground water may be passed. Ø Ban on marketing of fruits and vegetables in unhygienic condition. Ø Regulation to tap export potential, in horticultural crops.

Scope for public private partnership approach Ø There is enough scope to take up PPP approach for expansion of regulated market and to pump

more money for market infrastructure development. Ø Enough scope is available under contract farming to ensure scientific market price under tie up

arrangement with private companies and financial institution. Strengthening SHG’s/voluntary institution participation Ø Making use of existing SHG’s and locally established group to train and take up various agro based

entrepreneurship to increase per capita income. Marketing linkage programme Ø Creation of awareness among farming community about market and value addition. Ø Formation of farmers association at village level to avoid middlemen and creating direct linkage

(safal like market entrepreneurs). Ø Employment of self help group and developing entrepreneurs among the members of self help

groups. Ø Encouraging the farmer to grow demand driven market produce.

Improvement of logistic and transport net work Ø Creating proper accessible roads between all talukas to transport farm produce easily to District

centres. Ø Agro climatic conditions of the District are suitable to take up cultivation of export oriented quality

cut flowers under open as well as control conditions. Restructuring department and service system Ø Requirement of vehicle support for mobility of ground level officials to conduct various extension

activities and for effective implementation of schemes. Ø Requirement of computers and internet connection at talukas to speed up the work under various

NHM schemes. Due to continuous drought in the District and outbreak of diseases in the horticultural crops, the area under fruit crops especially the Pomegranate is declining; hence efforts are directed in enhancing the area

Comprehensive District Agriculture Plan (C DAP) for Akola District 2012-13 to 2016-17

Page | 31

of different crops. Also possibilities have been explored to area under medicinal and aromatic plants. Further, concerted effort is also made on increasing the production. 5.3 Watershed Development Geographical area of District is 5.37 lakh hectares, of which 4.44 lakh hectares is available for land development activities to reduce soil erosion, increase in ground water table, forestation and dry land Horticulture. In the next five years, 3.012 lakh areas can be developed under various schemes on watershed basis. Due to excess exploitation of ground water in the region, temperature is increasing as well as it has adverse effect on the rainfall distribution, tending towards the desertification of the region. Saline and alkaline Reclamation In Akola District, Akola, Murtijapur, Balapur Akot and Telhara talukas are affected by Salinity and alkalinity in black and deep black soils. In all, 31% of the total geographical area in the District has been affected. By identifying proper water courses and sub-surface drainage system and adoption of soil reclamation techniques the salinity and alkalinity problem can be rectified. 5.4 Animal Husbandry Development Introduction Infrastructure gaps have to be filled and increase the extension and training programmes Provision of AI facility in all the GPs and training of rural unemployed youths in A1 technique need to be taken up. In Akola District there are 269343 cattle, 49455 buffaloes, 4657 sheep 134681 goats and 57061 poultry birds populated. To serve this population there are 6 veterinary hospitals 68 veterinary dispensaries 1 mobile veterinary centre 1 diagnostic lab and 1 A.I. centre is in operation. Initiatives that need to be considered by strengthening existing schemes/new schemes are: Bridge yield gaps, improve extension services, improved productivity, improved value of production, improved technology, dissemination have been incorporated in the annexure.

Constraints for shortfall during 11th five year plan period a) For milk production Ø Shortage of high yielding bred cows and graded buffaloes Ø Failure to supply balanced feeds to the milking animals. Ø Lack of grazing lands, green fodder and forage crops. Ø Lack of qualified technical man power as per Veterinary Council’s specifications. Ø Lack of infrastructure facilities for overall veterinary services. Ø Weak veterinary extension activities due to lack of man power, infrastructure and mobility. Ø Heavy infestation of animals by ecto and endo parasites. Ø Existence of endemic dreadful diseases. Ø Lack of flow of technology from lab to farmers.

b) For meat production Ø Deforestation and encroachment by agriculturists Ø Heavy infestation of animals by ecto and endo parasites Ø The local breed is a poor wool producer Ø Prevalence of brucellosis in large number of goat population.

c) For egg production Ø Less number of layer farms due to high investment

Comprehensive District Agriculture Plan (C DAP) for Akola District 2012-13 to 2016-17

Page | 32

Ø Lack of infrastructure at rural areas Ø Lack of technical man power Ø Lack of flow of technology from lab to farmers.

Strategies to improve production in 12th five year plan The success of artificial insemination in domestic animals mainly depends on maintenance of critical LN2 levels in various veterinary institutions. This requires proper LN2 containers and carriage systems especially at Taluka levels. In rural area women are mostly involved in dairying. Along with up-gradation of local cattle through effective A.I… programme, high yielding crossbred cows, graded buffaloes if provided to rural poor at subsidised rate, milk production will be further boosted. For lactating cows, high nutrition is very critical which should contain carbohydrates, proteins, fats, vitamins and minerals at optimum levels. Providing quality concentrate feeds to farmers at subsidised rates will increase the production. Green fodder and forage crops access to livestock will decrease the cost of concentrates and thereby production costs. Repeat breeding problem is common among high yielding cows, which should be taken by employing qualified veterinary at rural veterinary staff institutions. Periodical training programmes for farming community should be conducted at taluk and village levels regarding dairying, sheep and goat rearing, piggery and poultry etc., will play a vital role in upliftment of their economy though scientific knowledge. Good infrastructure for effective veterinary extension activities at taluk level is a must. Without Veterinary extension activities at village level and proper mobility, it is quite difficult to disseminate the latest technology to poor farmers. Existing mobile Veterinary centres at taluk level have to be strengthened by providing proper infrastructure and man power. Production of clean and hygienic milk and other animal products has to be encouraged. Scientific poultry production (layers and broilers), piggery and other livestock farming have to be encouraged. Along with disease prevention measures like mass vaccination against deadly diseases, health camps play an important role at village level. During outbreaks of endemic diseases availability of quality medicines will be valuable in saving life of domestic animals and thereby improving the economic status of the farmer. Eradication of ecto and endo parasites in livestock especially in sheep and goats has to be given prime importance. Backyard rearing of productive dual purpose chickens like Giriraj at village level has to be encouraged. The white colour in the local breed of sheep is an added advantage in the improvement of breed. But a suitable exotic breed has to be selected and propagated in the District to improve wool quality and quantity.

Fisheries have gained increasing importance in the economy of the District as a source of nutritious food with greater scope for generation of employment. The District has got 49 inland ponds and 5 reservoirs, 12 GP tanks, 32 department tanks with water spread area of 3119 ha. Purna and other rivers flow in the District with a length of 485 km. The fish production for the year 2013-14 is 2042.9 MT during 12th five year plan more thrust is to be bestowed on the priority sectors and also on those requiring greater attention which could result in perceptible impact on the development of fisheries. With the main object of increasing the production of fish from tanks, river and reservoir fishery resources, various development schemes are being implemented in the District placing greater emphasis on production – cum employment oriented activities. Fish seed production, rearing and distribution The fish seed production and hatchery unit is proposed for the District. This will help to increase fish production in the District. Exhibition and Training To educate the farmers to take up fish culture scientifically, training to farmers in fish culture activities would be conducted. Exhibition activities will also be taken up to create awareness among the public regarding fisheries. The requirement of funds for fisheries sector i.e. for existing and proposed to given in Table 5.5.1.

The agro climatic condition, soil etc., are quite favourable for cultivation of mulberry and silk worm rearing. The irrigation has been a factor influencing the growth of mulberry cultivation in the District. At present the area under mulberry is 38.7 hectares. The average holding of mulberry garden per Seri culturist in the District is 0.53 hectares. The development of sericulture envisages expansion of area under mulberry mostly through institutional credit. During 12th five year plan the target of 331.60 hectares of mulberry cultivation is planned. More than 600 families of the District will be engaged in sericulture activities. Sericulture farmers mostly depend on Departmental staff for silk worm rearing and cocoon production. Average cocoon production 25990 kg/ha has been achieved in the years 2013-14. The proposed action plan for sericulture activities for five years is enclosed in annexure (physical and financial). New Plantation

5.7 District Industries Development To promote sustained growth of industries with employment and revenue generation for overall socio-economic development of the District, focus has been made to strengthen the agro-processing industry in the state and to increase its percentage share of the GSDP from the present average to over 20% by the end of the policy period. The major areas of operation are: Prime Minister Rozgar Yojana is the most important area of operation. Under this Scheme the financial assistance will be given through National/Schedule Banks to the educated unemployed youth for establishing the business, service and industries. Thereby reducing the unemployment problem to some extent. Besides this DIC loan and Seed money is to be implemented. The Action Plan has been prepared and presented in Table 5.7.1. For these programmes, an amount of Rs.242 lakh is estimated as shown in table below. Table 5.7.1 Action plan for District industries Sr. No. Programme 2012-13 2013-14 2014-15 2015-16 2016-17

The main objective is to achieve Market Efficiency i.e., to increase the producers share in a consumers rupee. The word marketing emphasis wide range of activities i.e., from movement of produce from farmers gate to consumers table which involves transportation, storage, grading and standardisation, processing and packaging and so on. In order to confer benefits of proper weighment, competitive prices, timely payment of price for their produce a system has been evolved to see that there is no unauthorised deduction in weighment or payment to avoid exploitation of producers from middlemen as well as elimination of non functioning middlemen to reduce marketing costs and margins in the marketing chain. Further to encourage development of modern markets by completing the process of amending the APMC act and notifying the rules there under, and also encourage development of linkages to markets through a variety of instruments including co-operatives of farmers, contract farming and other means preferred by the states. Agricultural Marketing system includes the overall arrangements and facilities available for the supply of farm inputs as well as assembly and distribution of farm outputs. Also includes the activities involved in the supply of various production inputs such as seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, implements and equipments needed by the farmer and other associated services for agricultural production however, the present policy package primarily focuses to the issues related to output marketing in the corporate sector.

Canal Banks and common lands and also in private Agricultural and non-agricultural lands. Maharashtra state has the largest drought prone area in the country and it needs more vegetative cover to mitigate the situation. Nearly 91% of the agriculture in the District is rain fed which mainly depend on soil and availability of water, and will be incomplete without a clear and well established roll of trees and associated vegetation in it. Restoration of degraded forests and forestation of waste land and Agro and Farm forestry activities are the only solution to increase tree cover. Akola District has at total area of 5.37 lakh hectares with 0.367 lakh hectares of forest area accounting for 6.83% of geographical area. National forest policy of India envisages that at least 33% of the area should be covered under forest/tree cover. Increasing the tree cover to 33% and meeting the local demands are the main national targets. The rain fall is of the irregular and erratic and the average rainfall is 730 mm. As Akola District is having only 6.83% of land under forest, the alternate way to increase the area under tree cover is to afforest all available waste lands (both Government and Private) including planting all along with agricultural fields bunds and planting in private non-agricultural fields drainage lines, tank foreshores, roadside, railway lines and canal banks by encouraging people to grow more trees. In this direction a proposal is prepared and submitted in order to increase tree cover in Akola District and increase the percentage of forest in the District. These afforestation activities will provide employment to the needy people, and also meet their demands of Timber, Fuel wood, Fodder and green manure requirements and will reduce the pressure on natural forests and forest based raw materials. Incidentally the area under tree cover will also be increased.

Strategy The plantation activities are broadly classified as: Ø Block plantations Ø Road side plantations/Railway track plantations Ø Agro-forestry on field bunds Ø Farm forestry by distribution of seedling

In farm forestry, desired tall plants are to be raised and supplied free of cost to the farmers. It is observed that the people of the District are also having a remarkable awareness about tree and tree growth which is evident from the fact that large number of agriculture fields are having exclusive Neem trees, nurtured and well protected. And people have a special liking for Neem trees. Incidentally Neem is meeting the timber demands of the people in the District also. The achievement made in this sector during X plan is given in Table 5.9.1. Table 5.9.1 XII Five Year Plan Targets

Extension activities: Involvement of people in all forestry activities is the latest strategy recommended by Government of India. As such in all these activities sufficient extension activities will be carried out in order to influence people to take part actively. Necessary publicity through News papers, audio and visual media, brochures, pamphlets etc., and awareness creation programmes will be implemented in association with local NGO’s. Information will be provided to the people regarding the worth of the produce, sale and demand, place of marketing. To encourage and impart technology raise and maintain hygienically different seedlings to the people in their own land. Participation of students and NGO’s with forest department to provide proper linkage communications. 5.10 Minor Irrigation Development The minor irrigation in Akola District is aiming to provide direct and indirect irrigation to the agricultural lands by constructing and maintaining the Percolation tanks, minor/medium irrigation tanks, barrage, anikut/pick-ups, lift irrigation schemes, etc. Water User Associations (Association of Beneficiaries coming under command) are also being formed for the management of the projects.

CHAPTER VI DISTRICT PLAN

________________________________________________________________________________________________ Introduction During the last two decades, the agricultural situation in the District has undergone a qualitative change. The present approach of the farmers is inadequate for familiarizing the entire family with modern agricultural technology. It is well recognised that the farmers are changing over the years, both as individuals as well as their contact with the outside world and their information seeking habits. Hence they require extension services and other services mentioned below to achieve the targeted growth rate of 4.0% in agricultural sector. Growth Drivers Agriculture Ø The crop productivity can be increased by providing the irrigation at the critical stages of the crop

growth by adopting micro irrigation technology. The increased response of the farmers towards adoption of micro irrigation technology and protective irrgation needs to be immediately addressed. This will enhance the crop productivity.

Ø Farm mechanisation is an important driver of the District as the timely redressel of farm operations under the present labour crisis situation holds the key to successful farm output. For the better crop growth farm mechanisation becomes an imperative.Result in better output levels on account of timely farm operation.

Ø Agro processing has to be promoted in the big way as the agriculture suffers from series of problems starting with low production, poor prices and lack of post harvesting facilities. Hence, crop productivity may be successful when the produce fetches a good prices.

Ø Soil health needs to be maintained as it is the basic requirement of the crop productivity. This needs to be addressed by promoting the adoption of organic farming and by assisting the usage of organic material on a large scale, along with supplementing the soil with micronutrients. In the recent past, farmers are enthusiastic in adoption of Organic farming. Hence, it is planned to popularise the concept of Organic Village and Farmers field Schools in the District on a large scale.

Ø Availability of certified seeds for the rural agrarian farming community is very much limited because of many factors. Making available the quality seeds has, far a long time been an un accomplished task, may be because of little knowledge farmers have about the quality of the seeds. So efforts need to be made to make available the credit seeds at grass-root level at relatively less cost. This enables the self-reliance among the farmers apart from enhancing the crop productivity.

Ø As the District depends mostly on the rainfall for crop production frequent occurrence of dry spells results in the reduced productivity, hence farmers are advised to cultivate crops in wider row spacing so that risk crop failures are reduced for this mostly use of BBF planters are suggrested..

Ø Use of low cost technalogies recommonded by SAU s and central research stations

Horticulture Development Ø District is known for horticulture production because of the agro climatic and soil properties. This

need to be exploited to take up export quality production of fruit crops including the dry land fruit crops.

Ø Processing of fruits especially Orange and lime for value addition this industry can performing well in the District.

Comprehensive District Agriculture Plan (C DAP) for Akola District 2012-13 to 2016-17

Page | 44

Ø Expansion of area under Orange, Lime , Pomogranate , Custerd apple and dryland horticulture crop like Amla needs attention as the climatic situation permits well in the District.

Ø Also there will ever incerasing demand for Floriculture imparts scope for flower cultivation. Ø Since last three - four years farmers are inclined towards Shed net houses, Poly houses, which

directly results into net gain of cultivators created tremendous scope for protective cultivation.

Sericulture Development Ø Though the District is not traditional for practicing sericulture but climate is congenial to make this

a profitable option. Since last three years as a subsidiary business farmers are taking interest in Mulbery cultivation in Akola distt . area under Mulbery is 39 ha. and ava. production of coocon in kg / ha is 25990.40. There is increasing scope for sericulture.

Animal Husbandry Development and dairy Ø Availability of the dry fodder throughout the year and with up coming irrigation projects in the

District animal husbandry activities finds a scope. Ø Procurement of milk network is well established both by co-operative, SHG and Private agencies.

Fisheries Development Ø The District has 44 tanks and 5 Reservoirs with a water spread area of 3119 ha. shows a bright

scope for extension of the activity across the District. Ø The District has 40 registered co-operative societies and increasing demand for fish in the cities as

well as in rural areas can be exploited to improve the marketing of fish.

VISION FOR XII PLAN

For overall development of the farming sector, the District plan of Akola emphasises on varied kind of activities to be taken up by different development departments. The main objective of this plan is to achieve the targeted growth rate and increasing the farmers income. The targeted rate in agriculture is achieved by increasing the productivity of cereals by 1.5 and oilseeds and pulses by 6.0 per cent. While, the horticulture division concentrated on enhancing the area and practicing high tech horticulture. Sericulture is finding a place in the District efforts and is made to expand this as an income- generating sector. Animal husbandry and agriculture go hand in hand, so efforts are directed to strengthen the farming sector to take up this as an allied sector in addition to agriculture. Importance is also given to practice the fisheries where ever possible. Also, most important is the credit facilities extended to farming sector to take up the above said activities. The targeted credit flow is around 75-80 per cent of the total credit disposal of the District.
