Group 2 Agroforestry Models including Agronomics & Development of Value Chain under National Bamboo Mission
Participating States SMAF Odisha Gujarat Tamil Nadu Kerala Uttar Pradesh Karnataka Himachal Pradesh Meghalaya Chhattisgarh Mizoram Telangana Jharkhand AP Sikkim Punjab NBM Odisha Kerala Chhattisgarh Telangana Jharkhand AP Karnataka
Experiences of States • Karnataka –Achieving SMAF targets through convergence • Punjab-Difficult to grow MPT – stress on Eucalyptus Poplar • Mizoram-Transportation of seedlings in hilly areas • Telangana, Uttar Pradesh- Administrative issues, policy by State • Chhattisgarh- Revision of planting cost & to be per plant rather than per ha All States • Request for assistance for micro irrigation through SMAF Implementing agency • Models for different agroclimatic zones with economics – CAFRI / AICRP • Provision for more demo plots • Marketing policy • Skill Development

Recommendations • Enhancing cost norms of SMAF and equating to existing agroforestry schemes in the States • Ratio of funding to be 50:25:25 instead of 40:20:20:20 • Synergy with PMKSY – PDMC • Need for extension workers and demo plots • Involving KVK, ATMA, ICAR, research units of States • Rationalization of plantation categories • Coverage of agro forestry under PMFBY • Loan facility
National Bamboo Mission www.nbm.nic.in • Synergy between Departments, R&D and entrepreneurs • Important role of M/o MSME and corresponding Dept in States • Backward forward linkages to be developed around the clusters identified • Stress on species of industrial use – superior planting material • Primary processing centres close to planting areas; Common Facility Centres • Focused plan for domestic production of quality agarbatti sticks - reduce imports • Planting Litsea and other spp for domestic production of jigget – reduce imports • Extension network to be strengthened for awareness and capacity building • Skill development of entrepreneurs • Increase use of bamboo in Govt. constructions Action Plans received from only 10 States
