• Diversification from high water requiring wheat crop to

less water requiring crops like pulses and oilseeds

• Efficient water management

• Integrated Pest – Disease management

• Intensive Extension (Transfer of Technology) activities

• Targeting resources towards SC/ST/Small/Marginal

/Women and BPL farmers

Important Initiatives• Additional promotional assistance on drip up to 40 percent

• Assistance on water storage Diggies in canal command area to promote pressurized irrigation.

• Convergence of diggies programme with MNREGA

DiggiDiggi• Pressurized irrigation made mandatory

for entire Narmada Command area. The same policy is also being g to extended in lift canal area of IGNP.

Issues

31

• Positioning of urea for Rabi 2013-14 as per month wise requirement.

• Release of balance fund under RKVY and CSS schemes

• Uniform subsidy on seed distribution for all crop varieties under NFSM in line of ISOPOM

• While restructuring centrally sponsored scheme :

Provision for staff cost and contingency for the posts sanctioned under existing scheme should be kept

For each scheme there should be provision of publicity both through electronic as well as print media

Separate provision for administrative expenses, mobility and supervision should be included for effective implementation and monitoring

Continue-----

32

• Issue related to crop/weather insurance

- A technical support unit may be established in MoA to design crop product for weather based crop insurance

- A post of Acturial may be created in MoA to examine and determine the premium, claim and crop product offered by insurance company

- All the automated weather station should be under national umbrella of IMD

• Horticulture related issues:

- Automation and fertigation should be the integral part of NMMI (subsidy on liquid fertilizers).

- Ceiling of area (5 ha) may also be exempted under NMMI.

- New crops like strawberry should be included for assistance under NHM
