STATEMENT REFERRED TO IN REPLY TO PARTS (a) to ( e) OF LOK SABHA STARRED QUESTION NO. 253 FOR ANSWER ON 10th JULY,2019
REGARDING “AGRICULTURAL EXPORT ”.
(a) India, with a large and diverse agriculture, is among the world’s leading producer of cereals, milk, sugar, fruits and vegetables, spices, eggs and seafood products. Recent growth rates show milk, sugar, fruits and vegetables, spices, eggs and seafood products. Recent growth rates show that agri-food production is rising faster than growth in domestic demand, and volume of surplus for export is witnessing accelerated growth. This offers scope and opportunity for capturing overseas markets to earn foreign exchange and enable producers to earn higher prices for farm produce.
(b) Under the Agriculture Export Policy, several unique product-district clusters have been identified for a more focused pre and post-harvest management of the production as well as for upgrading the supply chain to attain much higher levels of export from these clusters. These clusters have been identified based on the existing production contributing to exports, exporters operations, scalability of operations, size of export market / India’s share, awareness about SPS requirements, and potential for increase in export in short term. The list of such clusters, including the clusters identified in Maharashtra, is at Annexure-I.the clusters identified in Maharashtra, is at Annexure-I.
(c) The Ministry of Agriculture & Farmers Welfare has signed 65 MoUs with 61 countries in the field of agriculture and its allied sectors. The areas for cooperation in these MoUs/Agreements inter alia include enhancing investment in agriculture, cooperation in research and development, increasing productivity, enhancing trade, post-harvest management, value-addition/food processing, plant protection, animal husbandry, dairying and fisheries.
During the G20 Summit meeting held in Argentina, the Saudi Crown Prince had expressed to ramp up investments in India through Public Investment Fund (PIF) and Agriculture is one of the areas among others, where Saudi Crown Prince has shown interest.
(d) Investments in the agriculture sector in the areas of Research & Development, development of infrastructure and marketing would result in increase in productivity, quality fetching better price for the produce.
(e) The Government is taking a number of measures to increase the income of farmers. In the Minimum Support Price (MSP) policy announced in 2018-19 season, the farmers are assured of a minimum of 50 percent as margin of profit.
Government has been implementing/reorienting various schemes for betterment of agriculture sector with four key elements: reducing input costs; ensuring fair price for the produce; reducing wastage; and creating alternate sources of income. Some of the major initiatives of the Government towards welfare of the farmers are Soil Health Cards (SHC), production and availability of quality towards welfare of the farmers are Soil Health Cards (SHC), production and availability of quality seeds, Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchai Yojana (PMKSY), e - National Agriculture Market (e-NAM), Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojan a (PMFBY), Paramparagat Krishi Vikas Yojana (PKVY), National Mission for Sustainable Agriculture (NMSA), Mission for Integrated Development of Horticulture (MIDH), National Programme for Dairy Development (NPDD), National Dairy Plan-I (NDP-I), Dairy Entrepreneurship Development Scheme (DEDS), Dairy Processing and
Infrastructure Development Fund Scheme (DIDF), Supporting Dairy Cooperative and Farmer Producer Organizations engaged in dairy activities (SDCFPO), Blue Revolution etc. Moreover, Government is also promoting allied activities like dairying, poultry, beekeeping and fisheries, which will mitigate risks associated with dependence on agricultural crops through income supplementation.
The Government has also approved a new Umbrella Scheme ‘Pradhan Mantri Annadata Aay Sanrakshan Abhiyan’ (PM-AASHA). The Scheme is aimed at ensuring remunerative prices to the farmers for their produce as announced in the Union Budget for 2018, which envisages scaling up procurement significantly from the current Kharif marketing season.
In the Interim Budget 2019-20, a new programme named “Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi (PM-KISAN)” was announced. Under this programme, vulnerable landholding farmer families, having cultivable land up to 2 hectares, were to be provided direct income support at the rate of Rs. 6,000 per year. Now, all the landholding farmers in the country (subject to certain exclusions) have been brought under purview of the scheme.

India’s exports have to be seen in the backdrop of global trade developments and entire trade
ecosystem. India’s exports have faced a very challenging period in recent years, on account of
developments arising from the global financial crisis of 2008-09, which accentuated after 2013-14, when
the world economy experienced a major trade slowdown. Thus, after achieving a turnaround from the
initial shock, exports came under immense pressure again in the post 2013-14 period due to accentuation
of the global economic / financial crisis in the second phase when countries like China also got adversely
affected. However, since then exports have been growing on a secular basis since 2016 -17 for almost
three years and total exports reached a new peak of more than half a trillion dollars, for the first time.

(SHRI PIYUSH GOYAL)
(a) to (d): A Statement is laid on the Table of the House.
**********
STATEMENT REFERRED TO IN REPLY TO PARTS (a) to ( d) OF LOK SABHA STARRED QUESTION NO. 260 FOR ANSWER ON 10th JULY,2019
REGARDING “PROTECTION OF INTERESTS OF PEPPER FARMERS”.
(a)&(b): Representations have been received from traders/growers associations of pepper in the country regarding alleged import of low quality pepper into India from Vietnam through Sri Lanka. Since most of the pepper producing countries are in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) region, the stakeholders have raised apprehensions of routing the pepper produced in (ASEAN) region, the stakeholders have raised apprehensions of routing the pepper produced in ASEAN countries including Vietnam, to India through Sri Lanka, by utilizing the provisions of India Sri Lanka Free Trade Agreement (ISLFTA ) and Agreement on South Asian Free Trade Area (SAFTA).
The various steps taken up by the Government to curb import of pepper to protect the interests of the Indian farmers include, inter-alia, the following:
1. The Union Government Vide Directorate General of Foreign Trade (DGFT) Notification dated 6/12/2017 fixed Rs.500/- per kg as the Minimum Import Price for black pepper.
2. Subsequently, an amendment was brought in the Minimum Import Price (MIP) notification by making import of pepper at or above Rs.500/- per kilogram free and import below Rs.500/ per kg prohibited import of pepper at or above Rs.500/- per kilogram free and import below Rs.500/ per kg prohibited vide DGFT Notification dated 21/3/2018.
3. To prevent improper import of pepper from other countries taking advantage of preferential access under the India-Sri Lanka Free Trade Agreement (ISLFTA) and Agreement on South Asian Free Trade Area (SAFTA), Sri Lankan Authorities were requested to exercise extreme care and diligence in issuing the Certificate of Origin. On our request, Sri- Lanka has introduced a new procedure to prevent misuse of Certificates of Origin for third-country black pepper shipments destined to India. While issuing such Certificates of Origins, relevant authorities in Sri Lanka are also cross verifying information on exports of pepper obtained from different sources in Sri Lanka, to ascertain the genuineness of exports. Sri Lanka has also put in place a mechanism under which access has been given to Indian authorities to examine the scanned copies of Certificates of Origin issued for black pepper exports under ISFLTA and SAFTA.
4. Sri Lanka has temporarily suspended import of spices including pepper and areca nuts through the Entreport Trade and Commercial Hub Operations to prevent these spices being re-shipped from Sri Lanka to India as Sri Lankan products.
5. Sri Lanka has also agreed to facilitate the visit of a technical team to examine the existing procedures in Sri Lanka for issuing Certificate of Origin and the new mechanism set up by Sri Lanka for verification of authenticity of certificates issued for black pepper shipments exported by Sri Lanka under ISFTA and SAFTA.
6. Instruction has been issued to authorized officers of Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) and field formations of Customs to be vigilant at the point of entry in the ports in order to address the possibility of entry of inferior quality pepper from various countries. Chairman, CBIC, Department of Revenue has been requested to issue necessary advisories to the relevant authorities Department of Revenue has been requested to issue necessary advisories to the relevant authorities in the international borders of Nepal, Bhutan, Bangladesh and Myanmar to tighten the vigil on the borders to prevent the alleged illegal entry of black pepper into the country
(c)&(d): Government fixes Minimum Support Prices (MSPs) of 22 mandated Kharif and Rabi crops and Fair and Remunerative Prices (FRP) for Sugarcane on the basis of recommendations of Commission for Agricultural Costs and Prices (CACP), after considering the views of State Governments and Central Ministries/Departments concerned and other relevant factors. Crops considered under MSP
are major agricultural commodities which are widely grown and have large area under cultivation, are generally items of mass consumption with fairly long shelf life or/ and necessary for food security. While recommending MSPs, CACP considers a host of factors including all India weighted average cost of production of crops. Based on the latest three years actual cost estimates provided by the Directorate of Economics and Statistics under the Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare, which is compiled under ‘Comprehensive Scheme for studying the Costs of Cultivation of Principal Crops in India’. CACP undertakes cost projection exercise crop-wise, state-wise for the ensuing season under certain implicit assumptions by utilizing statistical techniques. These projected estimates of cost of production are considered into formulation of price policy recommendations by the CACP. Pepper is not one of the selected 25 crops that come under the Scheme.

(d) whether the Government is now trying to strike a balance between the consumers and the farmers by imposing a quantitative restriction on the import of pulses and if so, the details thereof?
ANSWER
okf.kT; ,oa m|ksx ea=h ( Jh ih;w’k xks;y )THE MINISTER OF COMMERCE AND INDUSTRY
(SHRI PIYUSH GOYAL)
(a) Yes, Sir. India has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Mozambique on
cooperation in the field of Production and Marketing of Pigeon Peas on 7th July, 2016 for a
period of five years.
(b) & (c) : The MoU was signed keeping in view the domestic prevailing prices and availability
scenario and with the objective of promoting production of pulses in Mozambique and
encourage trade of pulses between India and Mozambique. Under the MoU between India
and Mozambique, both parties have agreed to target minimum yearly quantities of imports
of pigeon peas and other pulses from Mozambique to India till 2020-21 whether through
private channels or Government to Government (G2G) sales. Government of India (GoI) is
committed to purchase pulses from Mozambique only to the extent of shortfall in targets of
imports by private traders. Till now, no imports of pulses have been made from Mozambique
on Government account under the MoU. The minimum agreed quantities of import of pulses from Mozambique under the MoU during 2016-17 to 2020-21 are as follows:-
Year Quantity/ Targets for Imports in lakh metric tonnes (LMT)
2016-17 1.002017-18 1.252018-19 1.502019-20 1.752020-21 2.00
Domestic production of pulses in the country have remained short of the domestic consumption
requirements. The gap between demand and supply of pulses in the country are met by imports.
Domestic Production and imports of pulses during 2016-17 to 2020-21 are given below:-
Year Total Production of Pulses (in LMT)
Total Imports of Pulses (in LMT)
2015-16 163.2 57.982016-17 231.3 66.092017-18 254.2 56.082017-18 254.2 56.08
2018-19 (3rd Advance Estimates) 232.2 25.282019-20 - 2.45
Source: Department of Agriculture Cooperation and Farmers Welfare (DACFW) and D/o Commerce
The import targets of pulses under the MoU are very small as compared to domestic production of
pulses. The Import of pulses did not have any significant impact on domestic farmers and miller
community.
(d). In view of bumper domestic production of pulses during 2017-18 and 2018-19, and
Government of India’s commitment to ensure better prices for farmers, quantitative restrictions
have been imposed on import of some of the major pulses to protect farmers’ interest. The import

ANSWER
okf.kT; ,oa m|ksx ea=h ( Jh ih;w’k xks;y )THE MINISTER OF COMMERCE AND INDUSTRY
(SHRI PIYUSH GOYAL)
(a) & (b) In view of the fluctuating nature of international prices in plantation crops and the dependence of growers on the export markets, Government launched and implemented the Price Stabilization Fund (PSF) Scheme from 1st April, 2003 to 30th September, 2013 to provide financial relief to small growers of coffee, tea, rubber and tobacco having land holdings up to four hectares. This financial relief was provided when tea, rubber and tobacco having land holdings up to four hectares. This financial relief was provided when prices of these commodities fell below the price spectrum band. Every year, a uniform price spectrum band for all four commodities was announced by the High Powered Committee (HPC) constituted by the Department of Commerce with a range of + 20 % to - 20 % of moving average of the previous seven years international prices of the crops. The scheme was based on the principle of contributions from the growers and the Government depending on normal/boom/distress periods, with a provision for withdrawal by the growers during the distress period. The Price Stabilization Fund Trust (PSFT) was set up by the Department of Commerce and NABARD to implement the PSF Scheme. The grower members were required to deposit Rs. 500 (non-refundable) towards entry fee, which would form part of the PSF Corpus. If the price falls
within the band, the year would be declared as normal year and growers as well as PSFT would deposit Rs. 500 each in the PSF saving account of grower opened for the purpose of the scheme in the Nationalized banks. If the price goes above the upper band, the year would be declared as boom year and only the grower would deposit Rs. 1000 in the account and if the price falls below lower band, the year would be declared as distress year and only PSFT would deposit Rs. 1000 in the growers’ accounts. In distress year, each eligible grower was allowed to withdraw Rs.1000 from the respective account. The scheme was closed on 30/9/2013. Therefore, no fund was allocated and utilized under the scheme during the last three years.
(c) A corpus fund was set up in the year 2003 with the Government of India’s contribution of Rs. 432.88 crore and growers’ contribution of Rs. 2.67 crore (Total Rs. 435.55 crore) to implement the PSF scheme. The PSFT, set up in September, 2003 for a period of ten years was implementing the PSF scheme and operating the PSF Corpus Fund. As per the provisions of the scheme, interest earned on the Corpus was utilized for implementing the scheme, keeping the corpus fund vested in the Public Account of Government of India intact. The PSF Trust has been re-registered for a period of 10 years commencing from 11/9/2013.As per the guidelines of the PSF, interest is calculated at the end of each financial year and transferred to the Reserve Fund –PSFT.
(d) to (f) The PSF scheme was not successful. The scheme was reviewed in October, 2012 with a view to rectify the deficiencies in the scheme. As a result, a draft modified PSF Scheme was prepared and discussed in the meeting held on 4/6/2014 under the chairmanship of Expenditure Secretary. In the meeting, it was decided that the available corpus with the Price Stabilization Fund Trust may be utilized by the Department of Commerce to implement a modified insurance premium subvention scheme for insuring the growers. Accordingly, the Department of Commerce approved a pilot scheme in the name of Revenue Insurance Scheme for Plantation Crops (RISPC) to protect small growers of tea, coffee, rubber & cardamom from the twin risks of weather and prices for implementing in nine districts of seven States by the commodity boards through selected insurance companies. However, the scheme did not elicit desired response from the target groups and insurance companies. groups and insurance companies.
The Indian Institute of Plantation Management Bengaluru evaluated the scheme and recommended crop specific insurance schemes for Coffee, Tea, Cardamom and Tobacco so that the needs of each crop could be met. The commodity boards have been advised to formulate suitable schemes as recommended by the evaluation study. The finalization and approval of the modified scheme is dependent upon the submission of suitable schemes addressing the deficiencies of the earlier scheme.
