Consequent up on massive soil testing and recommendations thereof we are inching towards the ideal ratio of N:P:K which is 4:2:1
Extent of fallow land and measures required to bring them to cultivation
• Fallow land in the state- 11.17 lakh hectsres (nearly 17%)• Measures required –
Taking up different plantation crops in well drained uplands remaining fallow.
Growing low duty and fodder crops. Fallow Low land prone to water logging could be exploited
for fisheries/ integrated farming systems. Establishment of Irrigation points; bore wells, WHS, farm
ponds/ dugwells etc. Treatment of land for reducing soil erosion and runoff losses. Livelihood interventions. Incentivising productive use of fallow land.
Extent of use of subsidy and quality inputs by tenant farmers
• While providing extension services and different quality agri-inputs farmers are not discriminated for owning land except for infrastructural development.
• Thus, all the tenant farmer have equal access to quality agri –inputs.
Scope for improving Potential and sustainable use of land resources
• Ample of scope for improving potential of land resources-– Exploiting irrigation potential – Provisioning appropriate drainage facilities– Appropriate and adequate soil amelioration– Adoption of proper nutrient and soil management
practices.– Capacity building of farmers and extension functionaries.– Reclamation of degraded land through proper treatment.– Reduce the extent of fallow land through proper usage

Efficiency of Water Use
• Efficiency of Canal Water use- < 38.5 %• Ground water & Surface lifts- 60 %• Challenges-
– Transmission losses on account of unlined and ill maintained distribution channels.
– Vast coverage under Rice crop (nearly 2/3rd). (the WUE of rice being one of the least)
– Inadequate spread of Micro irrigation.– Due to improper irrigation scheduling.– Improper crop planning
Micro irrigation and water Management for WUE
• Spinkler and drip irrigation systems are being popularised in a massive way.
• HDPE pipes are being promoted for minimising transmission loss
• Capacity building for efficient crop planning and water management in ayacuts.
• PIM and IWRM being promoted through formation of WUA (Pani Panchayats).
Watershed development and rain water harvesting
• Extent of coverage under watershed – • During 11th and 12th Plan period (upto 2012-13)
– 13442 no of Soil Conservation Structures and – 1589 nos. of WHS have been established.– 2943 ha of Plantation and – 7.2 km of avenue plantation have been taken up– 5330 micro watersheds implemented covering
treatable area of 28.76 lakh hectres.(2753 completed and 2577 are under operation)
Augmentation and application of irrigation water
• Strategies– Lining of canal & Rehabilitation of systems– Lining of distributaries and maintenance.– Promotion of participatory irrigation
management(PIM) & Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM).
– Proper crop planning and irrigation scheduling.– Adoption of improved methods of irrigation.– Adoption of appropriate Water Management practices. – Establishment of new irrigation sources.
Energy and Farm Power• Level of energy use from different sectors
– Power consumption - 151 million units (1.16 % of the total consumption)Govt. has decided to install separate Dedicated Agriculture Feeder for supply of power to Agriculture sectors throughout the State. Rs.150 crore has been provided in the budget during Financial Year 2013-14 for this purpose.
• Optimum use of machinery shall enhance efficiency in energy use. • Availability of farm power - 1.405 kW/ha. (To be enhanced to 2 kW/ha by 2020.)
– Human and draft animal contributes 0.71 kw/ha – machinery contribute 0.695 kw/ha
Nearly 5.5 lakhs machinery including pump sets are available in the State.55 lakh Agricultural labour and 80 lakhs draught animal contribute to the Farm Power.
• Access of Smal and Marginal Farmers to Farm Mechanisation– More than 1200 nos. Agro Service Centers have been Established in the State.– Normally small/marginal farmers are benefited by custom hiring of the Implement
/machinery available at Agro service centre.– More over SF & MF are major benefactors of mannual and bullock drawn farm
equipments.– Ample of subsidy extended to small and marginal farmers for farm mechanisation.
Energy and Farm Power Contd………
• Strtegy to improve energy efficiency in farm Operation– Ergonomic aspect is being taken in to consideration while designing
Manual/ Bullock drawn implements.– Special energy feeders are being set up in different places to supply un
interrupted power to Agriculture and fishery sector.
• Strategy to improve agricultural Mechanisation– More fund is being made available from State plan Schemes over and
above the GoI allocation.– Subsidy for different Agriculture implements/machinery has been
increased.– Subsidy up to 75% of the cost being extended in case of specific
implements/ Machineries.– Demonstrations and trainings are conducted in large scale– Special training on repair and maintenance of farm machineries and
equipments especially to un-employed youths.

Extent of services of Research & extension agencies used in Agriculture Development
• KVKs act as a member both in ATMA Governing Board & ATMA management Committee
• One of the Subject Matter Specialists of KVK acts as DPD (technical) of ATMA.
• KVKs also provides technical support to various flagship programmes being implemented.
• Res.-Extension-Farmer linkage is being strengthened through various programmes.
• Transfer of technology is being done through Capacity building programmes.
• Other NGOs/ Organisations/ Technical support Institutions working in the field of agriculture development are being involved as partners in the development process.
Extent of information on improved input and technology shared to the farming community.
• Disemination of such information is being done through – various mass media, – providing quality input and input assistance, – conducting demonstrations and trials, – organising Farmer Field schools, Farmers’ Training,
Exposure visits and other capacity building programmes. – Incentivising technology adoptions and farmers’
recognition – Free mobiles with access to market information to all
farmers (5000 have been supplied in the first phase).
Scope for improving information and technology disemination
• A lot of technology having potential to improve the pace of development in agriculture still remains unexploited.
• Development in agriculture has become very competitive in the post globalisation era.
• Technology need to be constantly upgraded and transfered for results as continuous process.
• Interactive portals/infromation kiosks need to be established . • There need to be simulated pictorial programmes on
technology which can solve the language barrier. • Technology Parks need to be established with state of the art
technologies employed.
