based Approach
Central India Initiative (CInI)
Background
18 to 25 degrees belt stretching from Gujarat to West Bengal - hilly and undulating
High rainfall - high runoff; reasonable forest cover
50 million tribal population (70% of tribal population of India)
Low literacy, high poverty, land and water productivity far below potential
Low use of modern technology in agriculture

Central India Initiative (CInI): IWMI-Tata’s Recommendations
• Zone ‘A’ includes Jharkhand, Orissa, Chhattisgarh and West Bengal. The focus is on stabilizing Kharif crops, through the creation of decentralized water harvesting structures near farm lands.
• Zone ‘B’ includes Madhya Pradesh, parts of Chhattisgarh and Maharashtra. The focus is on promotion of ‘Wadi’ (orchards) and creation of water harvesting structures such as nallah and cement bag bunds.
• Zone ‘C’ includes Maharashtra and parts of Madhya Pradesh. The focus is on promotion of ‘Wadi’ (orchards), developing and revival of irrigation systems to participatory approach and package of practices for crops like cotton , soyaben etc.
• Zone ‘D’ contains Gujarat and south Rajasthan. The focus is on Community Managed Natural Resources; large check dams and lift irrigation systems.

Central India Initiative (CInI) Objective
Launched in 2003, the CInI envisages a series of livelihood projects across the region, addressing core issues aimed at alleviating poverty amongst tribals in a sustainable manner.
Coverage Presence in 40/109 tribal districts of CInI
21 CSO Partners in all 9 states
Approx. 400,000 households
Linkages with govt, research institutions and donors
Livelihood interventions – improved agriculture, horticulture, dairy, poultry, water resources, tassar, etc.
Ensuring Food Security and Enhanced Livelihoods
• Kharif Paddy Stabilization• Improving the Crop productivity
of Maize
Vegetable Cultivation – Additional Income Source
Increasing Area under Rabi Cultivation
Revival and Creation Irrigation Potential
Centralized Irrigation System
Decentralized Irrigation System
Forest based Livelihoods
• Lac Cultivation providing additional income of Rs. 10,000/annum
• Tassar Cultivation – two cycles with annual income of about Rs. 10,000 to Rs. 15,000
• Horticulture promotion with assured annual income of about Rs. 20,000 after a period of four years
Off-farm Livelihoods
Meet the Demand of Deficit market
Increase in market demand and assured family income of Rs. 1,500/month
Formation of Dedicated Cell
CInI Cell was formed in 2005
1. For Geographical focus in the poverty belt of Central India tribal region
2. Work comprehensively towards the livelihood enhancement of the tribal communities
3. To Strengthen CInI as “State Immersion” and work in collaboration and cooperation with Government, Civil Society Organisations (CSOs), Donors, Research Institutions and Community Based Organisations.
Key Roles and Responsibilities
• Serves as a knowledge bank: One source information on the Central India Tribal region.
• New Idea incubator; Exploring new ideas in the field and efforts towards up-scaling and mainstream them.
• Establish strong networks and coordinating unit: Establish linkages with Institution of excellence, government agencies and donors
• Develop a strong brand equity for CInI
• Monitors and provides technical support: The organisations implementing CInI strategies, through regular monitoring missions and field visits.
State Immersions of CInI Cell
• CInI Cell has been registered as an organization under Societies Act 1860
• CInI Cell is based in Jamshedpur. Region office in Ahmedabad for better coverage in the western India states.
• Close tie-up with the Tribal Development Department, Government of Gujarat towards implementing Rs. 150 billion (for 5 years) ‘Vanabandhu Kalyan Yojana’
• Linkages with Tata Steel towards developing and initiating the Rs. 1 billion Tata Steel Centenary Project in Orissa, Jharkhand and Chattisgarh
• Partnership with NABARD and Government of Madhya towards systematic implementation of National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme and Tribal Development Funds
Recommendation of SP-2011
(a) Inclusiveness in growth(b) Regaining agricultural dynamism
(i) what needs to be consolidated and strengthen and (ii) what needs to be added or modified
(c) Prepare disaggregated district-wise poverty ratios of the CInI states, and ensure the investment is aligned with the national strategy of fund flow
(d) Strengthen establishment of CInI as “state immersion”
Future Strategy• Thematic Focus in each Zone : as it is ‘Kharif Paddy Stabilization’ for Zone A
• Continue focus on most poverty ridden districts:
• Engaging with the sector, whilst understanding the key issues in the region, forms the core area of work : Like Farmers distress in Vidharbha region.
• Convergence and consolidation efforts for larger and visible impact
• Dissemination of field learning's and pilots/idea incubation for large scale replication
• Developing strategic collaboration with research institutions such as ICRISAT, ILRI, World Vegetables etc. to achieve agriculture dynamism.
• Dovetailing efforts with the 11th Five Year Plan: Linkages with national level development programmes such as NREGS, etc.
• Forming state level forums in all the CInI states with representatives from Civil Society Organisations, state governments, research institutions, Community Based Organisations, etc.
Proposed Five Years Growth
• Reaching out to about 1 million tribal households
• Focus on most poverty ridden districts
• Providing households with an income of Rs 30,000/annum from the present Rs. 12,000/annum
• Strong Network with all state Government for wider recognition
• Financial Disbursal Target at 800 million
• Generating Nearly double funds from other sources
