1.Background of the ProjectThe importance of technology in sustaining socio economic growth and area development is
quite well known. An efficient technology transfer system leads to an efficient use of the
resources human as well as the natural.
Vivekananda Institute of Biotechnology (VIB), a branch unit of Sri Ramkrishna Ashram,Nimpith has been working in sundarbans with a mission to reach the grass root level people,
especially farmers, with relevant science and technology interventions.
Biotechnology is perceived to be in the hi-tech domain it is a vast subject and the youth form
the rural areas have a kind of feeling that it is not something for them. VIB tries to play a strong
role, here to demystify this notion and to prove that they can use it profitably in the rural areas.
Sundarbans, the famous mangrove forest and the international heritage site richly endowed with
natural resources, which is not put to an efficient usage for want of proper technology and skilled
persons. Development is a major concern in this region of the country. About 4 million people
inhabit this part of the country with majority living under below poverty line.
The development of agricultural biotechnology offers the opportunity to increase crop
production, low cost farming, improve food quality & safety and enhance pollution free
environment. This report describes the Channel Management for agro - biotechnology and
Krisi Sampad Karmi(KSK) potential business plan for the project area. The supply VIB
products of biotechnology innovations and will be affected by present farmer thinking by
expectations of producer and consumer demand for the products. The demand for bio products
by farmers and food processors is derived from the expected profitability of using the technology
as an input to production.

1.1. Objectives To validate a model of technology delivery system in this rural area. To deliver technology to the farmers of this region to improve their livelihood. To minimize the cost of cultivation and to increase the production by using bio fertilizer,
bio & botanical pesticides, vermicompst.
Awareness camp of organic based farming Commercial production of Vermicompost and thereby marketing or distribute it to the
market or to the farmers through different channels as a source of income.
To discover the scope of employment generation through KSK for rural unemployedyouths.
To prepare the potential business plan for KSK.
Major occupation of the people is agriculture. Other occupations are fishing, honey collection and wood cutting Literacy level as well as per capital income is much lower than that in
other parts of West Bengal
Communication system is very poor and most are the areas are inaccessible.

2.Methodology:-For the studies, a detailed review of literature together with collection and analysis of primary
and secondary data. Sample design acknowledges sample collection, both primary and secondary
data and deciding tools for data collection to identify and leverage points. Field work includes
focused group discussion, awareness camp, skill training, unstructured questionnaire, personal &JLG group interview and general discussion.
2.1 Research Design:-
Two Gram Panchyet (Ramganga & Digambo pur) of sundarban area under the district of South
24 pargana, West Bengal was selected for the research work. The reason for the selection was
that, to make potential business plan based on agro bio technology and establish a Krisi Sampad
Karmi (KSK) through above methodology in Ramganga & Digambo pur Gram Panchaytat .Here
80% of population depend on agricultural for their subsistence.
2.2. Sample Design:-
2.2.1 Sample method and sample size:-
As the number of target population was very vast, I have decided to go random sampling. The
sample population includes Agricultural farmer, Agricultural Labour, Middleman, Shop Keeper
fishery and other farmer. The sample size is taken as 125 farmers, 9 middlemen, 11 Shop
Keeper, 13 fisher man, 25 Betel vine cultivar, 30 tomatos farmer and 37 other agriculturalFarmer.
2.2.2 Survey Design
In order to conduct comprehensive quantitative and qualitative of basic requirement is accurate
and reliable data. Due to difficulties associated with of total population of each category of
agricultural intermediaries, only representatives and readily available respondents were
purposively selected and interviewed.
2.2.3 Collection of primary Data
Primary data are collected through unstructured questionnaire. Focused group discussion,
personal interviews and genera groupl discussion were conducted about some facts, issues before
and present situation of the Bio-Fertilizer, bio & botanical pesticide and vermicomposed .

5.1.2 Function:-
Sales and promotion:-KSK Support by VIB to reach as many as small & marginalfarmers at a minimum cost. The KSK has more contacts with farmer of his area and often
more acceptable by the farmers.
Financing: - Act as a link man between bank & farmers. Information: - KSK tries to contracts VIB regularly about the problem of the farmer to
solve as early as possible. He also informs the farmer presented and future project.
Monitoring:- Prime job of the KSK to monitor JLGs & master farmer to judge groupmembers whether JLG guide line is followed or not on the regular basis.
Awareness & Training: - KSK frequently Organize awareness camp as well as trainingprogram of per there requirement.
Selection and recruitment: - KSK can play an important role for selection of masterfarmer with help of VIB.
Meeting: - Conducting the monthly meeting of the master farmer in the target blocks forexchange of information & view as well as to remove any confusion.
Demonstration: - Awareness camps are essentially required to generate confidenceamong farmers regarding the scope of using Biofertilizer, Bio & botanical pesticide,
vermicomposet, etc through demonstration.
5.2 Roles and Responsibility of KSKs:
- Identification of Potential progressive farmers with the help of awareness camp,
individual contact and group meeting.
KSKs should understand the demography of farmers like family background, landholding, type of crop produced, habit of organic & chemical farming, arrange bank loan,
relationship with the ADA and agricultural officer.
To make a network to reach other untapped areas with the help of friends, familymembers, Panchayats staff, government officers.

KSK should build up a good relationship among the farmer. Provide solution to farmers continually buying the product and give advice for plant
protection.
Responsibility of KSKs to provide demonstration and services to the farmer as perinstruction from VIB .
KSKs should notice the farmers impotent of organic farming .
KSK should follow up the customer after selling VIB products and enhance the business..
Pre-sanction, inspection, post sanction and monitoring of loans and advances by aboutbank loan.
Responsibility of the KSK to Monitor Joint Liability Group (JLG) , master farmer &farmer group frequently.
Organize awareness camp/plant clinic(as per the demand of farmer) with the help of VIB To identify & selection of farmer to specify training program & motivate them for the
same.
To maintain daily sales report (DSR) & submit the same to the VIB authority. During plant clinic/awareness camp/Seminar KSKs should deliver the lecture, it will
create a positive impact among the farmers at the presents of expert member form VIB.
5.3 Field Diary for KSKs:
Verification of potential business plan is essentially required to judge potentiality of farmers.
Management people along with master farmers start their function with record keeping is each
G.P. VIB already has business plan for KSKs but the capacity of KSKs to meet the proposed
plan

5.4 Progress of KSKs through this model:
KSKs play an important role Technology Delivery Model (TDS) of VIB, entire program success
depends on KSKs. A compact training is to be required for them to improve their skills &
efficiency about the organic farming as well as financial service.
First of all KSKs and master farmer to take skill training program as per trainingschedule (orientation program of 7 days).
Field Visit (if possible with the help of VIB management team).a) Visit of 10 farmers per day(DSR)b) Demonstrate them about VIB programc) Approach the farmers about organic products and servicesd)
After visit 60 farmers arrange awareness camp with the help ofrespective expert member.
KSK must keep in mind that farmers they have visited will have to participate in theawareness program.
Feedback from farmers regarding their level of satisfaction on training program andshould be submitted the VIB authority (Identification progressive farmers).
Must maintain a data base of all progressive farmers. If any confusion arises KSK will again take initiative to motivate them If KSKs are able to manage 50 master farmers from each G.P that should be indicator the
efficiency of KSK.
KSKs can formulate JLG from the progressive farmer data base.5.5 KSKs value addition:-job
Identify the progressive farmers with the help of survey form/awareness camp/opinionleader etc.
Provide information about JLG, Soil testing and organic farming. Timely provide soil testing report. Timely provide banking facility. Ensure farmers training before each cropping pattern. Ensure availability of product. Ensure follow up feedback (Regular basis visit).

Operation mechanism of covering 1000 Farmer
To identify 50 master farmers. Each master farmer have identifies 20 farmers & makes a farmers
club as per the NABARD Norms.
Total no. of farmer will be 50*20 = 1000

5.6 Training schedule in master farmer
6.Awareness programFarmer here even today practice cultivation by tradition means. Few years ago they had a lot of
negative conception about the use of chemical fertilizers. But now a day they are using
excessively chemical fertilizer which reducing productivity/fertility statues of the land. As a
result farmer fails to earn profitable amount. Within last 2 months I have been able to conducted
19 awareness program through this project I have tried to make them conscious of the improved
modern technology in agricultural., how to make good profit with less investments, the
advantage of organic farming and necessity of soil testing.

7.Master Farmer identification and formation of JLGgroup
As per the instruction of NABARD project the initiative to assemble 1000 farmer under a single
roof. It is beyond the ability of KSK to control 1000 farmer and to make each and every one of
them aware of the modernized method of farming. KSK fails to manage the 1000 farmers in
present situation master farmer technology of NABARD will be the way to overcome the
situation. The farmers able to take modern technology through master farmer.
I have identified 25 master farmers in the projective area. There will be 20 farmers under I
master farmer. They will be take the necessary knowledge about the organic farming from there
master farmer who will trend by the expert member of respective subjective previously at VIB .
This master farmer group will form a farmer club in the future.
Joint Liability group(JLG) is a group of individuals(usually five) who guarantee each other in the
group in order to avail a loan. The loan is sanctioned to individuals of the group, without takingany tangible collateral, however should there be any default all the member of the group are
collectively responsible and jointly liable for the repayment of the loan. Each individual can use
the loan for their own purposes- purposes can range from consumption to repayment of other
outstanding debts of assets. I have identified 21 JLG group.

8.Joint Liability Groups
8.1 Objectives
The scheme aim at the following objective
a) To augment flow of credit to tenant farmer's cultivating land either as oral lessees orsharecroppers an small farmers who do not have proper title of their land holding through
formation and financing of JLGs.
b)
To extent collateral free loans to target clients through JLG mechanism.c) To build mutual trust and confidence between banks and tenant farmers.
8.2 General feature of JLG
A Joint Liability Group (JLG) is an informal group comprising preferably of 4 to 10 individuals
coming together for the purpose of availing bank loan either singly or through the group
mechanism against mutual guarantee. The JLG members would offer a joint undertaking to the
bank that enables them to avail loans. The JLG members are expected to engage in similar type
of economic activities like crop production. The management of JLG is to be kept simple with
little or no financial administration within the group
8.3 Criteria for selection of JLG members
JLGs can be formed primarily consisting of tenant farmers and small farmers cultivating land
without possessing proper title of their land.
Members should be of similar socio economic status and background carrying outfarming activities and who agree to function as a joint liability group.
The group must be organized by the likeminded farmers and not imposed by the bank orothers.
The members should be residing in the same village /area and should know and trust eachother well enough to take up joint liability for group / individuals loan.
The members should be engaged in agriculture activities for a continuous period of notless than 1 year within the area of operation of the bank branch.
The group members should not be a defaulter to any other financial institutions.
8/2/2019 Akram MTS-1Report
17/37
17
JLG should not be formed with members of the same family and more than one personfrom the same family should not be included in the JLG.
There is a need for a very active member of the group to ensure leadership role andensure the activities of the JLG. The selection of a good /able / active leader for the JLG
is an essential need, which will ultimately benefit all the JLG members. However care
should be taken to ensure that became loans are not cornered by the group leader.
8.4 Size of the JLG
The group should be formed preferably with 4 to 10 members to ensure the group members to
offer mutual guarantee.
8.5 Formation of JLGs
KSK discuss with the JLG members the bank's regulation, lending procedures, services etc. Theprinciples of self-help and group strength need to be emphasized. Group cohesion has to be
ensured. Adequate emphasis should be placed on the roles, expectations and functions of the
group / members & the benefits of group dynamics.
8.6 Saving by JLG
The JLG is intended primarily to be a credit group. Therefore savings by the JLG members is
voluntary. All the JLG would normally consist of 4 to 10 individuals. The group members may
be encouraged to open an individual "non frill" account. However, if the JLG chooses toundertake saving as well as credit operations through the group mechanism, such groups should
open a savings account in the name of JLG with at least two members being authorized to
operate the account on behalf of the group.
8.7 Critical factors in the JLG approach
The success of JLG concept depends on several factors. However, following factors are
critical: -
The concept depends heavily on mutual trust within that groups and on peerpressure to the repayment of loans.
The quality of group leadership is critically important for sustainability of thegroup.
The JLG exists only for the single purpose of expediting certain categories of loans. Generally
they are not multifunctional groups.
8/2/2019 Akram MTS-1Report
18/37
18
8.8 Purpose of Credit
The finance to JLG is expected to be a flexible credit produced addressing the credit requirement
of its members including crop production, consumption, marketing and other productive purpose.
8.9 Type of Loan
The branches may consider cash credit, short term loan or term loan depending upon the purpose
of loan.
8.10 Loan Limit
Considering that the loan to be granted is against the mutual guarantee offered by the group,
maximum amount of loan may be restricted to Rs. 50,000/- per individual
8.11 Rate of Interest
The rate of interest to be charged on the limit financed to JLG at per applicable in our Bank from
time to time. At present rate of interest would be charged as under 6.96% (Agricultural loan)

9.1 Bio- Fertilizer
It is a great source of nitrogen to meet the needs of crops because also has the capabilities to
cause a rejuvenation of soil microbiology to tap out the biological fixation of nitrogen.
Azotobacter Are free living bacteria which utilize atmospheric nitrogen gas for synthesis and
then mineralised in the soil after the death ofAzotobacter thereby contributing towards the
nitrogen availability of the crop plants. Azotobacter is a free-living nitrogen-fixing bacterium,
which is used as a biofertilizer in the cultivation of most crops.
All plant needs nitrogen for its growth and Azotobacter fixes atmospheric nitrogen non-
symbiotically. Therefore, all plants, trees, vegetables, get benefited. However, especially cereals,
vegetables, fruits, trees, sugarcane, cotton, grapes, banana, etc. are known to get addition
nitrogen requirements fromAzotobacter. Azotobacteralso increases germination of seeds. Seeds
having less germinating percent if inoculated can increase germination by 20-30%.
What is Bio Fertilizer?
Bio Fertilizeris a Natural organic fertilizer known that helps to provide all the nutrients required
by the plants and helps to increase the quality of the soil with a natural microorganism
environment.
Our fertilizers are 100% natural organic material from the nutrient-rich lands of Costa Rica, thatcould be easily applied with water over your plantations on any stage, or use it as a base for
creating a potent and concentrated natural organic liquid fertilizers that could be used in many
different growing mediums with excellent production results for organic farming, industrial and
home applications such as gardening.
Bio Fertilizers are the most advanced bio technology necessary to support developing organic
agriculture, sustainable agriculture, green agriculture and non-pollution agriculture. This Bio-
organic Fertilizer can increase the output, improve the quality and it is responsible for agriculture
environment. Today, it has been widely used with excellent results in all kinds of plants and
several countries.
It is well known that the continue use and overuse of petrochemical based fertilizers and toxic
pesticides have caused a detrimental effect to our soils, water supplies, foods, animals and even
people. The Biological Grower is more sensible with sustainable approach and employs the
resources of both science and nature to allow better results in his production. For centuries, peat
moss has been recognized soil bacteria, fungi, earthworms, and other bio-organisms to enrich the
8/2/2019 Akram MTS-1Report
22/37
22
soil to produce safe, nutritious and abundant crops. An excellent fertilizer sources. We have
developed all natural organic fertilizers made with pure peat moss.
Biofertilizer Contains a wide range of naturally cheated plant nutrients and trace elements,
carbohydrates, amino acids and other growth promoting substances. Kelp acts as a soil
conditioner by stimulating microbial activity in the soil which results in improved air-water
relationships in soil, improved fertility and makes soil less prone to compaction and erosion.Organic Growers who use kelp in their regular fertility program report increases in yield, quality,
shelf-life and resistance to environmental stresses such as drought, extreme heat, early frost, and
pest and disease problems.
This blend makes an excellent foliar fertilizer. Besides being a nutritionally complete fertilizer
(containing even calcium), the nutrients are readily absorbed by the leaf. This is because the
nitrogen in fish is in the form of amino acids which plants take in and use directly unlike
inorganic fertilizers in which the nitrogen needs to be converted into a usable form first.
Additionally, because the micro-nutrients in the fish and in the kelp are in a naturally cheated
form they are quickly and readily absorbed into the leaf surface. Foliar applications on a regular
basis can increase the health, vigor and yield of plants due to this easily absorbed additional
nutrition.
Organic fertilizers differ from chemicals fertilizers in that they feed your plants while adding
organic material to the soil. Soils with lots of organic matter remain loose and airy, hold more
moisture and nutrients, foster growth of soil organisms, and promote healthier plant root
development. If only chemicals are added the soil gradually loses its organic matter and micro
biotic activity. As organic matter is used up, the soil structure deteriorates, becoming compact,
lifeless and less able to hold water and nutrients. This results in increased amounts of chemical
fertilizers needed to feed plants. We also like organic fertilizers because they're made from
renewable resources; chemicals are not.
The Bio Fertilizer is a premium natural fertilizer composed just with certified organic ingredients
special of nutrient-poor Western soils. This organic fertilizer is unequaled in its ability to nourish
the beneficial micro-organisms in the soil greatly increasing the soils humus content and
improving its ability to sustain and nurture healthy, more colorful plants. Use by the handful
when planting individual plants, broadcast and mix it deeply into the soil when planting flower
beds or spread it around established plants and scratch it into the soil. It is also excellent for use
in vegetable gardens, container plantings and as a compost-pile activator
The Peat moss is a plant that could lives well in an environment poor in oxygen but when dies,
it's decomposition could takes thousands of years, That property, give them special properties to
the cells, making them much bigger and it that helps to KEEPS the water and nutrients that could
be applied later to the plants.
Bio Fertilizer: The Best Economic Value: Proven, top-quality product. Stick with bio fertilizer
the one that always has and always will give you top quality and the best value immediately for

your investment and much more profits at long term. It is homogenous easy to handle and has
shown the best growth results, all of this at a highly competitive price
Why should we use bio fertilizers?
With the introduction of green revolution technologies the modern agriculture is getting moreand more dependent upon the steady supply of synthetic inputs (mainly fertilizers), which are
products of fossil fuel (coal+ petroleum). Adverse effects are being noticed due to the excessive
and imbalanced use of these synthetic inputs. This situation has lead to identifying harmless
inputs like bio fertilizers. Use of such natural products like bio fertilizers in crop cultivation will
help in safeguarding the soil health and also the quality of crop products.
What are the benefits from using bio fertilizers?
Increase crop yield by 20-30%. Replace chemical nitrogen and phosphorus by 25%. Stimulate plant growth. Activate the soil biologically. Restore natural soil fertility.
Provide protection against drought and some soil borne diseases
What are the advantages of bio-fertilizers?
1. Cost effective.2. Supplement to-------- fertilizers.3. Eco-friendly (Friendly with nature).
Reduces the costs towards fertilizers use, especially regarding nitrogen and phosphorus.
What types of bio fertilizers are available?
1. For Nitrogen
Rhizobium for legume crops. Azotobacter/Azospirillum for non legume crops. Acetobacterfor sugarcane only. BlueGreen Algae (BGA) andAzolla
8/2/2019 Akram MTS-1Report

How bio fertilizers are applied to crops?
1. Seed treatment: 200 g of nitrogenous bio fertilizer and 200 g of Phosphotika aresuspended in 300-400 ml of water and mixed thoroughly. Ten kg seeds are treated with
this paste and dried in shade. The treated seeds have to be sown as soon as possible.
2.
Seedling root dip: For rice crop, a bed is made in the field and filled with water.Recommended bio fertilizers are mixed in this water and the roots of seedlings are dipped
for 8-10 hrs.
3. Soil treatment: 4 kg each of the recommended bio fertilizers are mixed in 200 kg ofcompost and kept overnight. This mixture is incorporated in the soil at the time of sowing
or planting.
How could one get good response to bio fertilizer
application?
Biofertilizer product must contain good effective strain in appropriate population andshould be free from contaminate microorganisms.
Select right combination of bio fertilizers and use before expiry date. Use suggested method of application and apply at appropriate time as per the information
provided on the label.
For seed treatment adequate adhesive should be used for better results. For problematic soils use corrective methods like lime or gypsum pelleting of seeds or
correction of soil pH by use of lime.
Ensure the supply of phosphorus and other nutrients.
What would be probable reasons for not getting response
from the application of bio fertilizers?
1. On account of quality of product Use of ineffective strain. Insufficient population of microorganisms. High level of contaminants.
2. On account of inadequate storage facilities May have been exposed to high temperature. May have been stored in hostile conditions.
3. On account of usage
8/2/2019 Akram MTS-1Report
25/37
25
Not used by recommended method in appropriate doses. Poor quality adhesive. Used with strong doses of plant protection chemicals.
4. On account of soil and environment High soil temperature or low soil moisture. Acidity or alkalinity in soil. Poor availability of phosphorous and molybdenum.
Presence of high native population or presence of bacteriophages.
9.2Azospirillum & Azotobacter
Azospirillum contains 109 /gm spores ofAzospirillum species. This microorganism fixes the
atmospheric nitrogen and makes it available to plants in a symbiotic manner. Azospirillum is
mainly useful for monocot vegetables. Azospirillum bio fertilizer also secretes some fungicides,
enzymes but in minute amount. Use ofAzospirillum bio fertilizer increases the crop production
in large scale.
Application
Use for the non-leguminous crops before the mentioned expiry date.
Mix the inoculants uniformly with the seeds gently with the minimum amountof water taking care to avoid damage to seed coat. Dry the inoculated seeds
under shade over clean paper or gunny bag and sow immediately.
For transplanted crops: Mix the inoculants in bucket of water stir the mixturevigorously. Dip the roots of seedlings in this mixture before transplanting.
Transplant as usual.
It can be mixed with pit mixture before planting of vegetables / fruit crop. If the seed is to be treated with pesticides; first follow the pesticide treatments
and finally treat seeds with Azospirillum inoculants.
Recommendations
Jowar, Bajra, Wheat, Maize, Paddy, Cotton, Sugarcane, Vegetables, Grass, Fruit trees and
Ornamental plants. Only Rhizobium is recommended for leguminous plants like Groundnut,
Soybean, Red-gram, Green-gram, Black-gram, Lentil, Cow pea, Bengal-gram and Fodder
legumes.
8/2/2019 Akram MTS-1Report
26/37

9.3Rhizobium
Rhizobium fertilizer contains Rhizobium micro-organisms. These micro-organisms live in
association with the roots of leguminous plants in the form of root nodules. These micro-
organisms fix the atmospheric Nitrogen in the roots & make it available to plants, which plants
cant fix directly and makes the soil fertile & also increases the plant health.
Application
Use for the non-leguminous crops before the mentioned expiry date. Mix the inoculants uniformly with the seeds gently with the minimum amount
of water taking care to avoid damage to seed coat. Dry the inoculated seeds
under shade over clean paper or gunny bag and sow immediately.
For transplanted crops: Mix the inoculants in bucket of water stir the mixturevigorously. Dip the roots of seedlings in this mixture before transplanting.
Transplant as usual.
It can be mixed with pit mixture before planting of vegetables / fruit crop. If the seed is to be treated with pesticides; first follow the pesticide treatments
and finally treat seeds with Azospirillum inoculant.
It reduces dose of nitrogenous fertilizers like Urea and Increases the proteincontent of seeds.
It provides nitrogen to the plant and increases the yield.Recommendations
For all leguminous plants like soyabean, groundnut, mung, check pea, all types of beans,
methi , alfalfa, lupin, barseem etc.
9.4 PSB/PSMCulture
Phosphate solubilizing micro organisms for all crops. There are many types of micro
organisms presnt in soil out of which some microbes & fungi can solubilised the complex
insoluble form of phosphorus into simple soluble forms that can be taken by plants. Generally
these micro organisms are very few in soil.
PSB/PSMculture contains millions of soil phosphate solubilising micro-organism per gram.
Thesephosphate solubilising bacteria stay near the roots & make the phosphorus available to
plants from soil as well as fertilizers & increase the production drastically.

9.5 Botanical pesticides
Many plants are known to have pesticidal properties and the extract of such plants or its refined
forms can be used in the management of pests. Among various plants identified for the purpose,
neem has been found to be most effective. Neem (Azadirachta indica) Neem has been found
to be effective in the management of approximately 200 insects, pests and nematodes. Neem is
very effective against grasshoppers, leaf hoppers, plant hoppers, aphids, jassids, and moth
caterpillars. Neem extracts, are also very effective against beetle larvae, butterfly, moth and
caterpillars such as Mexican bean beetle, Colorado potato beetle and diamondback moth. Neem
is very effective against grasshoppers, leaf minor andleaf hoppers such as variegatedgrasshoppers, green rice leaf hopper and cotton jassids. Neem is fairly good in managing beetles,

11.3 ROLE OF CIRCLES
The Kiosk Banking channel is a low cost and effective online channel to extend outreach in the
unbanked area. Circles are requested to
Engage SCAs/CSCs operating in Circles to roll out Kiosk Banking. Examine the engagement of local level BCs/outlets having necessary infrastructure i.e.
Internet enabled PC along with printer, etc.
Create awareness at grass root level viz Link Branches / CMFs / BCCSPs. Provide due publicity among rural masses target group. Ensure arrangements for proper supply of stationery at CSPs. Circle Administrator to ensure installation of fingerprint scanner and licenses,
printer/web camera, trainings and support to KO/BC.
11.4 KIOSK BANKING: GETTING STARTED
Once the National/Regional level BCs are selected, the KO identified by the BC is required to
pay the activation fee after which the KOs terminal ID (machine ID) gets mapped into the Kiosk
portal by the Administrator. This ensures that the Kiosk banking model can be accessed only by
the authorized agents since the corresponding terminal ID needs to be mapped by the
Administrator before being able to view the Kiosk Banking portal.
11.4.1 Enrollment

For opening an account with the Bank, the customer submits a simplified account opening form
to the KO. KO enters the customer details and captures his photo (using the web camera) in the
system. Documents as per the liberalized KYC norms are also collected during this process. The
CSP will capture the image of the customer with provided by the BC. On successful uploading of
data, the system generates a reference number and acknowledgement receipt.

11.4.2 Account Creation
KO submits physical account opening form for verification/checking to Link Branch. The Kiosk
Banking application sends information on the customers to Link Branches. The Link Branch
verifies this information against particulars of the physical account opening forms received by
them.
As per RBI guidelines, verification of KYC is the responsibility of the Bank. Linkbranches have to verify all the account opening forms along with KYC documents.
On successful verification by the Link Branch, the account creation file is uploaded intoCBS which creates CIF for the customer and opens savings bank account with zero
balance making the link branch as the home branch.
The application keeps track of customer creation status and updates the status onsuccessful creation of CIF and savings bank account by CBS.
The KO, using the reference number already generated for the customer, logs into theKiosk application and prints Identity Card for the customer.
As part of Risk Mitigation efforts, the Link Branch also has to physically verify at leastfive percent of the account opening forms on random basis every month by personally
visiting the Customer Service Points / Kiosk Outlets.
11.4.3 Transaction Handling
For conducting any transaction, the customer needs to visit the kiosk. Customers can do online,
real time banking transactions locally at his place without visiting the Banks branch.
The kiosk operator logs into the system using his own ID which is also passwordprotected and biometrically verified. The transactions take place only after successful
validation of the customers fingerprint, the mapped accounts for the given customer will
be shown in drop box in the Kiosk Banking interface.
The Customer's main menu display the customer's particulars and welcome messagealong with available services like deposit, withdrawal, balance enquiry, and statement of
accounts.

13. ConclusionIt was observer from varies result and activity that the Green Revolution, benefitted mostly the
big farmers with some capital reserves. The small farmers, in spite of their access to finance from
the formal and informal sources, were not able to get as much benefit as the big farmers drove
since the size of their farms was too small. In context of Bengal not only the size of thelandholding was an issue. The landholdings were also fragmented here. Mechanization had also
some cost involved in it and above a certain size of consolidated holding it could prove to be
effective.
However, the issue of far greater concern is the damage caused, over the years, by Green
Revolution to the agro-ecosystem as a result of excessive use of chemical fertilizers and
pesticides. More and more reports are surfacing on the harmful effects of over-application of
synthetic agricultural inputs. So the agricultural experts are recommending stopping or reducing
the use of chemical fertilizers and moving over to bio fertilizer, organic manure and bio &
botanical pesticide. We all are talking about the Evergreen Revolution.
For this region the objective of the project work are, to model of validate technology to improve
their livelihood, minimize the cost of cultivation through bio fertilizer & pesticide,
vermicomposed etc, employment generation & find out the business plan.
After having thoroughly contract with the farmer extensive visit of the village are following
finding record that they have no idea about the organic farming and there couponed but after
awareness camp of the target farmer interest adopt the pollution free modern technology. Its help
their soil health as well as pour food and quality fodder animals.
.
14. Recommendation To arrange awareness camp in regular basis. To develop a system for proper management. All the KSK should submitted the report weekly basic. To monetary the business plan frequent by VIB authority. Farmer training schedule before cropping season. Update the data base of the farmer on regular basis Maintain the proper channel of supply the VIB products to hand of farmer.
