  13. Fertilizer Consumption(2007-08)

  14. Quality Control

  15. Maharashtra’s Response to AgricultureHistorical Perspective • First State to adopt Dry Land Farming Technology. • Pioneer in Horticulture Development through EGS to promotehigher income & more employment in farming sector • State Seed Corporation – First farmers company in seed sector • Pioneers in Co-operative network • Sugar factories, Dairies,Water user association. • Corporate Horticulture Company • Four State Agricultural Universities • Very effective & Research based Farmers Organisations

  16. Major Emerging Concerns • Un-viable farming • Lack of diverification in Crops & Other activities in Vidarbha & Marathwada • Land locked areas in Marathwada & Vidarbha • Lack of infrastructures, markets, roads, railway rake points, airport • Infrastructural Bottle necks • Roads, Market facility, irrigation, Tribal area • Input dissemination , poor credit, Bank facility

  17. Production of cotton in Million bales of 170 kg each

  18. During 2007-08 due to satisfactory and well distributed rainfall resulted into highest production

  19. Strategy • Bridging Yield Gaps • Increasing & improvement in irrigation • improving irrigation, coverage of watershed, Massive Farm pond programme & drip irrigation • Improvement in Market Infrastructure • collaboration with the external agencies • Improvement in Communication • Roads, ICT & Strengthening the enter relationship by convergence • Empowering Farmer through • Market & Price discovery • Training in skills to earn higher income • Preparing for exploiting global opportunities in fruits & vegetables • While emphasizin dual approach increase in farmers income food security, will be given equal impotiance.

  20. Bridging The Yield Gaps National 2001 2082 782 803 687 980 273 64.47MT Average

  21. Strategy • Bridging Yield Gaps through • Supply of Quality input supply • Effective extension • Improving agriculture Research & extension interaction • Promoting FFS by emphasizing skill transfer to staff as well as farmers • Emphasizing Soil Health Programme • Diversified farming which includes Horticulture, Dairy & Animal Husbandry and Watershed infrastructure

  22. Empowering socially unprivileged farmers (S.C. & S.T. ) State ‘s initiatives for the poverty alleviation of S.C. & S.T. farmers Implementation of Special Component Plan for S.C. & Tribal Sub Plan for S.T. • Item S.C. S.T. • A) 10th five year plan • 1) Beneficiaries 0.59 lakh 0.18 lakh • Covered (no’s.) • Expenditure incurred (Rs. In crores) 182.23 52.32 • B)11th five year plan • preceding two years • 1) Beneficiaries 0.38 lakh 0.14 lakh • Covered (no’s.) • 2) Expenditure incurred (Rs. In crores) 158.28 38.94 • Proposed programme for next three years • 1) Beneficiaries to be 0.79 lakh 0.16 lakh • Covered (no’s.) • 2) Outlay proposed (Rs. In crores) 286.14 81.00

  23. Empowering socially unprivileged farmers (S.C. & S.T. ) • SC & ST farmers should be trained in Modern Farming, agri business, Dairy Horticulture etc. • Priority in Land development, Farm ponds & mechanisation • At least one youth from each family will trained in Horticulture, dairy & other avenues like dairy, poultry, sericulture, bee-keeping, Medicinal plants to generate income and employment. • This will be done through training of this youth through the RAMETI & SAMETI

  24. Konkan Paddy- Increase area under Hy. Rice, Use of Urea DAP briquettes , Popularising “Chatu-Sutri”-Four point paddy production technology Cashewnut - Area expansion , Productivity enhancement , Promotion of organic cashew Mango - Area expansion under Alphonso , Post harvest management including better transportation of mango, Adoption of GAP Construction of Konkan Jalkund, Check dams, Diversion Bundhara Western Maharashtra & Khandesh Sugarcane - increase productivity & release area for foodgrains and soybean Soybean – increase area & productivity Grapes& Banana – major stress on export Pomegranate - area expansion in DPAP blocks Floriculture & high value vegetables- cultivation under controlled conditions Promote organic fruits & vegetables More emphasis on ICM & IPM for horticultural crops like Pomegranate, Grapes Promote floriculture & Cold chain Region based Crop strategies

  25. Marathwada Cotton - Increase the yield & promote Clean & quality cotton Maize - Increase the area for cattle feed & industrial use Oilseeds & pulses - Bridge the yield gaps Promote the cultivation of sweet oranges, mangoes & banana Kharif sorghum - Promote industrial use Discourage the cultivation of sugarcane and divert the area under soybean & gram Promote protective irrigation through the farm ponds, dug wells and other water harvesting structures Region based Crop strategies

  26. VIDARBHA Paddy- SRI method for increasing productivity Soybean- increase the area & productivity Cotton- promoting Clean & quality cotton through contract farming, reduction in cost of cultivation through INM & IPM Organic cotton & mandarin promotion campaign Pulses – promoting as intercrop in soybean and cotton Mandarin Orange – improving the quality & productivity through improved packages of cultivation and quality planting material Promoting PHM of mandarin orange through better packing , transportation & preservation Promoting Public Private partnership to develop clusters of pulses, vegetables, flowers & fruits for the ultimate market in the urban areas Water harvesting through farm ponds, dug wells, check dams, malgujari tanks & bodis Region based Crop Strategies
