15. 12 TH PLAN APPROACH Coarse cereals included Special plan for remote areas Cropping system

16. Strategy of targeting low productivity districts – Assured funding – PMTs at District, State and National level Result oriented Approach – Production targets – Krishi Karman Awards at State and National Levels – Mid course corrections Promotional Programs – Seeds, nutrients, plant protection measures and farm machines What worked

17. 1/4 th districts (105) unresponsive – Problems of remote locations – Agro ecologies Weak Documentation – Low Capacity of extension machinery Seed production – New varieties – Hybrid Rice, pulses What didn’t work

18. Priorities of NFSM in 12 th Plan  Strengthen Delivery Channels  Improve work environment ▪ Skills and tool sets  Improve Accountability ▪ Concurrent evaluation  Develop Alternate Delivery Channels  Emphasis on new Institutions ▪ Within (FPOs), Outside (NRLM)  Involve NGOs ▪ Remote inaccessible areas

19. Accelerated Crop Production Program as the key driver of change in the lowest producing areas – Holistic treatment for the cropping system instead of a crop Technology promotion to sustain 11 th Plan gains Technology development for food crops in commercial crop based cropping system Strategic and Adaptive research – NARS and CGIAR institutions New programs – stabilized production of foodgrains Special projects in high productivity areas – value chain integration and marketing support – improving access to technology for small holders Special project for remote areas Promoting agri Services in farm operations Approach

22. Why continued focus on Foodgrains? Sustained and ever increasing demand Strategic – 2/3 rd of Crop area is under food grains Crop Diversification and Eastern India – Climate Change and Millets/Pulses crops Sustainable agriculture – Feed/Fodder Maize, millets – Global Food Situation – Trade oppurtunities

23. Pulses Demand-Supply

24. Pulses – New initiatives Linking pulses farmers to market – Setting up farmer producer organizations through Small Farmers agri business consortium (SFAC) – Building pulses value chain in PPP (Rallis) Remunerative Minimum Support Price – Procurement operations by FPOs backed by SFAC- NCDEX-NAFED ‘Nitrogen award’ being worked out as bonus to monetize environmental benefits of pulses

25. Kisan ki Unnati Desh ki Pragati Finally While cereals production is more assured, a lot of work needs to be done on pulses and millets Liberal budgetary support, strong political will and innovative programs augur well for the success in Pulses as well NFSM created opportunities for innovations to effectively meet the needs of the farmers Thank you
