Strategies of Seed Rolling Plan 2014 • Plan for Crop wise seed Requirement-Kharif 2014-15. • Plan for Crop wise seed Requirement-Rabi 2014-15. • Crop variety wise seed Production Plan Kharif /Rabi -2014-15 • Advance arrangement to meet the shortfall in production kharif 2014-15 • Crop Variety wise seed Production Plan 2014-15 • Advance arrangement t p meet shortfall in production Rabi 2014-15. • Seed Bank 2014-15. • Seed Contingency Plan for Kharif and Rabi 2014-15.
Advance arrangement to meet shortfall in production-Kharif
Advance arrangement to meet shortfall in production-Rabi-2014-15 –estimated.
Seed Bank: Seed Contingency Plan 2014-15. Excess Rainfall Early Season excess Rainfall (May-July)
Seed Bank: Seed Contingency Plan 2014-15 Drought Mid-Late Season draught( August-November)
Comparative Analysis of Seed Rolling Plan • The areas covered only under HYV and Hybrid are included in Seed |Rolling Plan. • Crop wise Seed Requirement plan 2013to 2015;- Marginal increase in area coverage in most of the kharif and rabi crops. • Crop variety wise seed production Plan 2013 to 2015 The seed production of Paddy remained constant from last year; i.e 2013 and 2014 ( 1200 qtls but the target may slightly increase in 2015-16 ( 1250 qtls ) The seed produced will be fully organic which farmers may get premium price. \where as crop production of other major crops are in increasing order by 187 qtls over existing figure of production . Advance arrangement to meet the shortfall in production
Comparative Analysis of Seed Rolling Plan-contd: • Advance arrangement to meet the shortfall in production Some old and newer varieties are been included as per the availability of varieties in case of shortfall , the shortfall on seed requirement is filled up by the farm saved seeds which are organic in nature and channelized through seed village scheme where the growers are certified registered farmers. The seed certification will be done under the strict supervision of designated seed inspector.
Comparative Analysis of Seed Rolling Plan-contd: • Rajmash , Mustard and Buckwheat are the major cereals Pusles and Oilseed in Rabi season. Most of the fallow land left out by Kharif Maize in dry land and Paddy from irrigated areas are covered by Mustard and Buckwheat var , Meethey. • Seed Bank: Contingency plan.
