28. Impact of Central programs on Production • Enhancement in SRR. • (Increased from 22% in 2006-07 to 40% in 2010-11) • Seed production by SSC up from …… in 2006-07 to …. In 2010-11. • Demonstration of new technologies. • (SRI, Hybrids, Line sowing, improved package of practices) • Increasing trend in use of farm machineries specially • (Increased from 0.21 lakh in 2006-07 to 1.70 lakh in 2010-11). • Increased use of Micronutrients, Bio-Pesticides and Bio-fertilizers. • Field level functionaries provided under ATMA and NFSM. • Large number of exposure visits organised for farmers. • Additional area brought under cultivation through land improvement. • Providing platform for initiatives and new activities to raise production. • Increasing trend in productivity of crops in Bundelkhand and E.U.P.

29. 12th Plan : Enhancing Production & Productivity The targeted growth rate for 12th plan is 5.10 %

30. Initiatives for 12th plan • Providing KCC to all the eligible farmers • Pre-positoning of fertilizers to meet the peak demand • Dhaincha Seed production programme for successful green manuring. • Inter-croping of pulses with sugarcane for raising pulse production. • Line sowing of wheat in eastern U.P. • Massive weed control programme • Three fold increase in crop loan distribution. • Strengthening of soil health • Promoting sowing of Ground nut in Zaid for enhancing oil seed production. • Reclaiming wasteland in the catchment of Ramganga • Revival of Bhoomi sena yojna.

31. STRATEGY • Crop specific strategies to reduce gap between potential and actual farm yields. Wheat - line sowing mainly in Eastern UP Rice - SRI, Stress tolerant varieties, Use of hybrid seeds. Pulses - Intercropping with sugar cane, jowar and bajra, coverage in zaid. Maize - Use of hybrid seeds. • Bridging yield gaps in Eastern UP and Bundelkhand. • Rejuvenation of soils through soil testing, green manuring, bio-fertilisers, micro-nutrients etc. • Improvement of degraded lands and land productivity through IWMP. • Intensification of modern extension techniques through Mass media , Mega Farmer Fairs, farmer clubs and KVKs . • Thrust on efficient water management in Bundelkhand. • Timely availability of quality inputs • Saturation of all farming families with kisan credit cards and enhancing crop loan from Rs. 23447 crores to Rs. 33134 crores.
