Chapter 4 Sole of Sugar Cooperatives In
CHAPTER 4 SOLE OF SUGAR COOPERATIVES IN DEVELOPMENT OF IRRIGATION FACILITIES 4.1 Introdwctj-Qft As seen in the previous chapter, the problem of distribution of water between sugarcane cultivating areas and other areas has been an important issue since the beginning of the 20th century. Now, as I have examined the issue only at the macro level in the previous chapter, it is necessary to see how some individual cooperative sugar factories have really acted in the area of irrigation development and how their activities affected other areas than their command areas or other parties than sugarcane-growers. In this chapter, at first, efforts on irrigation development of a few sugar cooperatives are examined, and then, the effects of irrigation development by sugar cooperatives on other areas or other parties are studied with examples from a few districts in Maharashtra. 4.2 Vasantdada Shetkari SuRag C<?PPei:9tiYfi> The case of Vasantdada Shetkari Sahakari Sakhar Karkhana Ltd., Sangli is worth noting because, although Sangli was not a traditionally known sugarcane-cultivating area, amazingly rapid development of lift irrigation was seen fcr in the early history of this sugar cooperative, because of the foresight and help of a notable leader, Vasantdada Patil. When the factory started its first crushing season in 1958, the area under sugarcane available to it from its command area was not more than 800 hectares. In the command area of the factory, there were 3 rivers flowing, namely, the Krishna, the Warna and the Verla; however, the government was then thinking that lift irrigation projects on rivers were not feasible. -

Agriculture & Forestry, Vol. 61, Issue 2: 189-199, 2015, Podgorica 189 DOI: 10.17707/AgricultForest.61.2.17 Patil S.K and Nagarajan R. 1 GEOSPATIAL ASSESSMENT OF IRRIGATION WATER POTENTIAL FOR BLACK SOIL SALINIZATION SUMMARY The quantum of irrigation water used as supplementary or as dependent source and its quality, could contribute to the development of secondary soil salinity. This affects on the crop growth and yield as well degrades the soil over the period. River, open dug well and tube well is used in intensive sugarcane cultivation in the Krishna, Warana and Yerala basin. An attempt has been done to understand the water quality and it’s spatial distribution. Water Quality Index were created based spatial distribution of hydrochemical parameters and derived indices - salinity, sodium absorption ratio, percent sodium ratio, residual sodium carbonate and permeability index. The changes in salinity of irrigation water from post to pre monsoon season indicates salt movement and addition through return flows. The order of importance of geochemical parameters suggested can act as tool for proper management through WQI. Nevertheless continuous monitoring of irrigation sources and proper drainage facilities are needed to overcome effect of poor quality irrigation water sources. Keywords: Secondary soil salinity, Water Quality Index, Black soil, Hydrogeochemical parameters, Krishna River INTRODUCTION Salinization of land has threatened civilizations in ancient and modern times. About 7% (~955 M.ha) of the land surface of the earth is affected by primary soil salinity and 77 M.ha by secondary salinization due to human activities (Metternicht and Zinck, 2003). Proper irrigation water management and drainage was not provided during the rapid irrigation development of the early and mid-decades of the twentieth century. -

Krishna River Valley
IRJC International Journal of Social Science & Interdisciplinary Research Vol.1 Issue 7, July 2012, ISSN 2277 3630 CHANGING PARADIGMS OF RIVER VALLEY SETTLEMENTS- KRISHNA RIVER VALLEY MR. SATHISH S* *Doctoral Student, Institute of Development Studies, Manasagangothri, University of Mysore, Mysore-570006.Karnataka State, India. INTRODUCTION Very first settlement after adaption of agriculture was around rivers. These river valley settlements have definite birth and extinction by various factors. They are the early settlements and starting point of urbanization. Any urbanization attracts migration due to opportunities created by social grouping. Tracing of Historical development in these settlements give clear picture of urbanization process. They also become places of study for human achievements in terms of architecture, urbanization, social, political and economic developments. Conserving these precincts for posterity becomes the prime necessity. These settlements are ignored in developmental process. Water conservation and distribution of scarce resource lead to complexities indecision making in projects. Frequent floods impacts on normal life. Planning in river valley, calls for addressing developmental process in multilayers of decision making involving various specialized agencies. Government needs advice on these issues by past experiences in similar situations. An attempt is made to understand these forces for conducive developmental process in changing times. Krishna valley region is chosen as it experiencing rapid migration tendencies and change of climatic conditions along with changing river course due to soil erosion and levels of water courses. This article Concludes in organizational and strategic decision making systems for positive development and conservation of settlements of historic value. KEYWORDS: Developmental Process, Historic value, Social grouping, Strategic decision making. -

There were limitations to observations during the rainy season as the sugar industries and distilleries do not work during this period and as such the report is not holistic. Shortcomings in the report if any can be brought to the notice and can be changed. The following people have given their valuable help during the completion of the report and hence it is essential to acknowledge them.

City Development Plan 2031 Kolhapur Industrial Hub, Tourist Attraction, Robust Infrastructure, Knowledge Industry
Urban Infrastructure Development Scheme For Small And Medium Towns City Development Plan 2031 Kolhapur Industrial Hub, Tourist Attraction, Robust Infrastructure, Knowledge industry The Destination: KOLHAPUR I am heartened to know that Kolhapur has developed a firm vision for its future in the form of the City Development Plan. Kolhapur occupies a cherished position in the state of Maharashtra, be it in the field of agriculture, arts or industry. From ancient times it has made valuable contributions to Marathi culture and indeed to the Indian society, especially in the areas of Marathi film industry, food, religion and literature. It is a continuous endeavor of the State Government of Maharashtra to ensure that all its citizens have access to basic infrastructure, a better standard of life and proper opportunities to earn their livelihood. The schemes of Central Government like JNNURM and UIDSSMT provide the tools to support this vision for Maharashtra. Kolhapur has utilized the opportunity provided by UIDSSMT by defining a systematic vision and action plan to upgrade Kolhapur’s urban infrastructure and administrative machinery. The process of preparing the City Development Plan ensured that all the stakeholders of the city had a say in defining the vision. The City Development Plan envisages the future status of Kolhapur as a hub for industries – engineering, IT and agro based, famous as a tourist location with efficient urban services. I commend and congratulate the Kolhapur Municipal Corporation and the citizens of Kolhapur for contributing to this significant step towards development of Kolhapur. I appeal to other cities and towns in Maharashtra to follow the example set by Kolhapur and plan for their own development.
