18. State experience in implementation of A3P * Based on feed back the experience is very encouraging. * A3P has been very effective in increasing the yield of pulse crops. * INM and IPM based block demonstrations motivated the farmers to adopt the demonstrated technologies. * e-pest surveillance under A3P promoted the IPM technology among the farmers. * The seed minikits of improved varieties had good impact in popularizing these varieties. * The farmers of adjoining villages have also been benefited by these block demonstrations.

19. Status of Wheat Minikit Allocation and Distribution 2011-12 Unit – Nos. District wise deficit in distribution (1) Damoh HI-1544 (-) 130 by MSSC (2) Shahdol HD-2932 (-) 20 by SFCI

22. Brief over view of NFSM and A3P 1- The impact of NFSM under Paddy, Wheat & Pulses is very encouraging. 2- Production & Productivity of NFSM crops has been considerably increased. 3- The increased in productivity is as below. Pulses - 17.6% over normal Wheat - 18.8% over normal Paddy - 31.6% over normal 4- Farmers have adopted improved package of practices as demonstrated. 5- Under A3P an area of about 1,94,000 ha. has increased under Pulse crops. 6- Other farmers of surrounding area are also influenced with new technologies and have started adopting them.

23. Specific issues & Suggestion * In pulses except gram there is lack of improved disease resistant varieties. * Shortage of certified seeds of improved varieties at proper time. * Unavailability of notified hybrid varieties of rice from resource institution. * Lack of interest in seed production programme of early duration pulse and paddy varieties by the farmers due to their low yield potential.

24. Cont. … * The farmers belonging to the category of small/marginal/SC/ST could not get the desirable benefit despite of the subsidy (50%) because of the poor economic condition. Hence there is need to increase the subsidy up to 75% * A new intervention of seed storage facility need to be included in NFSM crops. * It is suggested to increase the rice district to the extent of 15 districts. * To overcome the problem of availability of gypsum from IFFCO and PPL. some more companies should also be authorized.
