  • Horticulture & Cash Crops Development Department
    ` Annual Progress Report 2010-11 1 Horticulture & Cash Crops Development Department Government of Sikkim 1. Introduction Sikkim is a land blessed by nature with bountiful resources, manifested in rich biodiversity, perennial water sources, diverse soil profile, extremely varied climate and wide ranging topographical variations. Diverse agro-ecological situations ranging from sub-tropical in the lower valleys to alpine in very high elevations present an extremely congenial environment for horticulture diversifications. Our horticulture development programmes are based on the advantages arising out of our inherent strengths and disadvantages posed by geography and topography. Nonetheless, our efforts directed towards converting disadvantages into advantage have brought about path breaking transformations in horticulture sector. Promoting farm activities that are fully compatible with our ecology and ethos forms the basic core of our development strategy. As a result of various interventions, this sector has been able to achieve much in area expansion under different commercial crops. Increased productivity, high level of crop diversification and technological inputs are some of the manifestations of departmental interventions. Tangible area increase under flowers and vegetables has been achieved over the years especially cultivation of off-season vegetables. Protected cultivation, a notion quite remote a few years back now has evolved into one of the most effective inputs for flowers na vegetables. Fruit cultivation is a traditional practice in the State and the resurgence of orange cultivation has strengthened our confidence and given new hope to our farmers. Similar strategy is being followed with greater zeal for controlling large cardamom decline. Climate change as everywhere has posed new challenges with threats of new pests and diseases, change in cropping pattern and shift in cropping line.

  • Disaster Management Plan-(2020-21) East Sikkim-737101
    DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN-(2020-21) EAST SIKKIM-737101 Prepared by: District Disaster Management Authority, East District Collectorate, East Sichey, Gangtok 1 FOREWORD Recent disasters, including the Earthquake which occurred on 18th September 2011 have compelled us to review our Disaster Management Plan and make it more stakeholders friendly. It is true that all the disasters have been dealt significantly by the state ensuring least damage to the human life and property. However, there is a need to generate a system which works automatically during crisis and is based more on the need of the stakeholders specially the community. Further a proper co-ordination is required to manage disasters promptly. Considering this we have made an attempt to prepare a Disaster Management Plan in different versions to make it more user-friendly. While the comprehensive Disaster Management Plan based on vulnerability mapping and GIS Mapping and minute details of everything related to management of disasters is underway, we are releasing this booklet separately on the Disaster Management Plan which is basically meant for better coordination among the responders. The Incident Command System is the part of this booklet which has been introduced for the first time in the East District. This booklet is meant to ensure a prompt and properly coordinated effort to respond any crisis. A due care has been taken in preparing this booklet, however any mistakes will be immediately looked into. All the stakeholders are requested to give their feedback and suggestions for further improvements. Lastly, I want to extend my sincere thanks to the Government, the higher authorities and the Relief Commissioner for the support extended to us and especially to my team members including ADM/R, SDM/Gangtok, District Project Officer and Training Officer for the hard work they have put in to prepare this booklet.

  • Climate Change and Sustainability of Agrodiversity in Traditional Farming of the Sikkim Himalaya
    CLIMATE CHANGE AND SUSTAINABILITY OF AGRODIVERSITY IN TRADITIONAL FARMING OF THE SIKKIM HIMALAYA Ghanashyam Sharma and Lalit Kumar Rai ABSTRACT limate change impact at the global level has become a major concern today and Sikkim Himalaya is no exception. In the regional context, climate change has contributed to unpredictable or erratic rainfall Cpattern, drying up of local springs and streams, species migration to higher elevations, shift of sowing and harvesting period of crops, emergence of invasive species and incidence of diseases/pests in crops as well as in fodder species. Building resilience in both human and ecological systems to an optimum level is the best possible way to adapt to climatic variation. This study has identified the primary challenges of mountain farmers for ensuing adaptive capacity and water security in the agriculture systems. High levels of impact from climatic change was recorded for paddy, maize, wheat, oil seeds, cardamom, ginger, drinking water sources and springs and fodder trees. A total of 9 types of rains (jhari) and 12 traditional landuse practices are studied which have undergone changes due to climatic change impacts in the area. Innovative coping mechanisms developed by local farmers against emergence of diseases and pests, invasive alien species, untimely shift of crop sowing and harvesting season, rapidly declining productivity, climatic variability etc. are detailed. Pastoralists are now resorting to an alternate strategy for making the best use of their land and herds. There is a need to develop a comprehensive master plan for strategically planning conservation, addressing poverty and food security in the wake of climate change impacts.
