2. Introduction of the project

a) Identification of project

The role of the pesticides in the well-being of human race needs no emphasis. Pesticide usage

has become essential in order to maximize agriculture production and reduce public health

pestilence. The rapid changes in cropping patterns, increased fertilization and adoption of

programs for high yielding varieties have all contributed to increased use of pesticides. Further,

pest problems keep on changing with the changing environment. New physiological kinds evolve

as a result of mutations to withstand new conditions in nature. Many pest species develop

resistant strains when the same Pesticide is used far too often. The problems of pest resurgence

and secondary pest out-breaks crop up with the indiscriminate use of pesticides. These associated

problems offer a great scope for revolutionizing the use of pesticides. However, in India though

the overcall pesticide growth figures may appear impressive, the rate of consumption per hectare

of cultivated land is very low in comparison per hectare of cultivated land is very low in

comparison to other countries. India used 180 g of pesticides/ha. as against 10,790g, 1870 g and

1490 g/ha used in Japan, Europe and U.S.A. respectively. India spent just Rs. 2.15/ha. on

pesticides while Japan and U.S.A spent Rs.110/ha and Rs.35/ha respectively during the same

period. India consumed 12 gm. of pesticides per kg. of fertilizer used against 146 gm. in Japan in

and 19 gm in U.S.A in . This is one of the major factors that can be attributed to low per hectare

yields in our country since the crops and especially the high yielding varieties cannot manifest

their production potential in absence of proper pest protection. That the production potential

remains suppressed for want of protection can be exemplified by considering how in wheat, a

crop comparatively resistant to insect pestilence, we have had a “revolution” where as in paddy

which is one of the most heavily infested crops, we have had no break-through. In case of wheat,

the per hectare yield in India rose from 827 kg. to 1338 kg. Corresponding yields of paddy in

India on the other hand was 1826 kg. as against 6185 kg. 5326 kg. , 5105 kg.and 4000 kg. in

Japan, Egypt, USA and USSR respectively.

With in the country itself, there is a great imbalance between different regions with regard to the

use of pesticides. Of the total of approximately Rs.5000 million spent on pesticides in at the farm

level, south contributed for about 45 per cent of the total consumption in the rest of the country.

b) Project proponent

The project is for the Expansion cum modification of existing Formulation unit with New

Technical grade pesticides facilities by Pioneer Products Limited at 5 KM Stone, Sampla Beri

Road, Village Sampla, Tehsil – Sampla, Dist.- Rohtak – 124501 (Haryana).

c) Brief Description of nature of the project

Pioneer Pesticides Limited is a well-known company in agrochemical industry. Banking on their

rich collective experience of over 20 years. To the farmer community it is simply known as PPL.

PPL Group is a popular name in agri-inputs industry over last twenty years. It has been working

extensively with the farming community to help them raise better and healthy crops. Today

PPL‟s reach and impact has crossed geographical boundaries. Through extensive research in

agricultural fields, the company has manufactured many successful products and services. This

has largely helped farmers grow healthy crops and increase their productivity.

Being established among the frontrunners in the agri-inputs Industry, PPL group products

portfolio consists of a wide spectrum of high quality eco-friendly pesticides, fungicides,

herbicides etc. to cater to every arena in the agricultural sector of crops (food and commercial),

horticulture and floriculture, in applications for public health, house-keeping and veterinary

treatment besides loss prevention in warehouses, depots and granaries. Apart from these, the

group has also forayed into the packaging industry on an encouraging note.

PPL lives to its commitment of prompt deliveries and adherence to promised delivery agenda.

The organization works hand in hand with farming community to bring innovation linear to life,

fulfilling its motto of “Yielding Prosperity”.

d) Production details and Product Specification

Manufacturing of Pesticides used for the pest control in the agriculture & public health. The raw

materials and final products are synthetic organic chemicals and will be manufactured with latest

modern technology which will be environment friendly.

e) Need for the project and its importance to the country and its region

Pesticides are essential input for agriculture and the project will provide adequate availability of

the required products at cheaper rates and will also reduce the import quantities.

f) Production Gap

This would thus appear from the above that there is an unabridged major gap between the

demand and supply of pesticides for both public health and agriculture. The investments

involved in setting up of basic manufacturing plants as compared to formulation units if fairly

high. It has been possible for small-scale entrepreneurs to go in for formulation business but

financially not possible to invest in basic manufacturing facilities. In the country basic

manufacturing are mostly with large-scale multinational companies and, in some cases, may be

wholly owned by them. In view of the fact that the present companies of these subsidiaries have

sizeable capacities for the manufacture of basic chemical in their own countries, they are

reluctant to invest money for basic manufacture in India. Also, these companies are reluctant to

transfer technology and losing monopoly sales especially when these products are proprietary.

g) Demand Supply Gap

Since the requirement of Pesticides is increasing @ 10% to 15% every year, there is a huge gap

between the demand and supply.

h) Import vs. Indigenous production

At present more than 50% requirement is fulfilled by Import and there is urgent need to create

indigenous manufacturing facilities to provide better Quality at optimum cost.

i) Export Possibility

All the products have high potential of Export

j) Domestic/ Export Markets

The technical grade pesticides will be consumed internally within the formulation plant and rest

will be sold to many formulators all over the country. At the same time export will be done in

containers.

k) Employment generation (Direct & Indirect) due to the project

Directly 110 people will be employed in the plant after establishment and operation. Indirectly

an equivalent amount of employment will be generated, in terms of man-hour

3. Project Description a) Type of Project

10. Environmental Management Plan a) Air Pollution Control Gaseous emission from fuel burning, consist of common pollutants like SO2, NO2, and

PM would be discharged into atmosphere through Stack of suitable height.

Green belt will be developed covering >33% of the total project area, around the plant

boundary as dust preventive barrier.

Odor Control System: All the vents of the batch tanks and solvents are connected to

scrubber to absorb any pollutant / odor producing gases and chemicals. Green belt around

the plant boundary will absorb the odor to some extent.

The operation of centrifuging/ filter will be done in closed equipment to avoid any vapors

coming out in the local atmosphere. The vents of centrifuges / filters will be connected to

scrubbers.

The drying of the product is done in a closed type continuous Fluidized Bed dryer/ Nudge

filter to avoid the exposure of any chemicals to human being.

Volatile organic solvents are carefully handled in a closed system, thereby preventing any

discharge of these chemicals into the air.

Process emission quality will be maintained as per the following standards:

H2S < 45 mg/Nm3

NH3 < 175 mg/NM3

HCl <20 mg/NM3

SO2 <40 mg/NM3

Cl2 <9 mg/NM3

b) Waste Water Management Out of total water requirement of 174 KLD, 104 KLD of fresh water will be required while

the industrial waste water generated (~ 93 KLD) will be treated in the Effluent Treatment

Plant ETP/ MEE. After treatment (~70 KLD) will be recycled back in the system. The

domestic Waste sent to Soak Pit but in later future STP is proposed to be commissioned.

c) Noise Environment Installation of the plant machinery will be done after- due consideration to design noise

levels and noise mitigation measures.

The green belt developed helps in reducing noise levels generated due to plant operations.

There will be no major sources of industrial noise; minor noise generated from the

industrial operations will be controlled by proper maintenance.

Proper mitigation measures will be taken in addition to above for the reduction of noise

levels i.e. use of acoustic enclosures and providing personal protective equipment etc. to

the workers.

Periodical monitoring for noise is being carried out on regular basis.

Proper maintenance, oiling and greasing of machines at regular intervals is done to

minimize generation of noise at source.
