Status of Implementation of NFSM Special Initiatives and Overall Impact of NFSM  Yield advantage of Hybrid Rice promoted in an area of about 497 hectares;  Farm Machinery provided for Basmati Growing areas;  Irrigation resources augmented through provision of pump- sets;  Yield per hect. of qtls. of Hybrid Rice estimated in Jammu, Samba and Kathua districts.

Strategies under NFSM during  Restoring Soil Fertility through Macro & Micro-nutrients;  Covering 5000 hectare area under Hybrid Rice;  Covering hectare area under Basmati Rice;  Thrust on Farm Mechanization;  Augmenting Irrigation resources;  Capacity building of farmers through FFS.

Input Planning for Kharif 2012  Seeds: Adequate quantity of Hybrid Seeds, Basmati & other varieties arranged to meet the requirement of Demonstrations and enhanced SRR;  Fertilizers: Adequate Stocking of Urea, DAP and MOP in the three NFSM Districts and Zinc Sulfate in hectare area; (Tenders received for Zinc Sulfate)  Seed Treatment & Plant Protection Chemicals and Bio-agents: Available from Authorized dealers/ manufacturers;  Machinery and equipments: Available from Authorized dealers/ manufacturers;

Issues for Discussion  Resource Persons & Institutes for Training in SRI on farm & off-farm;  Training of Farmers and Extension Officers in Hybrid Seed Prodtn.;  Provision required for Deep Bore-wells/ Tube wells;  Support for BGA Prodtn.;  Raising rate of assistance for Distribution of Hybrid seeds, Paddy Trans-planter, rotavator, and other machines;  State nominees should also be sent for International exposure
