The main stakeholder in agricultural sector ‘farming community’ also faces lot of difficulties in getting information of various developmental activities being implemented by different developmental agencies in a district. The Central and State Governments have been implementing a number of programmes for overall development of the farming community and the resource poor and remotely located farmers are more often deprived of many of such schemes because of their ignorance about these programmes. Therefore, it is the need of the hour to bring together information on available resources, infrastructures, ongoing developmental programmes/schemes etc. in a book form at the district level. Krishi Vigyan Kendra Bongaigaon was established in 2014 under the umbrella of Assam Agricultural University, Jorhat-13 and has been rendering its service for effective transfer of technologies among the farming community. The present compilation is a step taken by KVK Bongaigaon which contains basic information on the present state of agriculture in the district, details of various research and development organizations relevant to the farming community and different schemes that are in operation in the district. The inventory is expected to fulfill the need of the farming community. 5 I congratulate all the members of KVK Bongaigaon for their earnest efforts in bringing out the Agriculture Inventory of Bongaigaon District in the present form, within a short period of conception of the idea. Date : 19.02.2016 Dr. Chinmoy Kumar Sarma Programme Coordinator KVK, Bongaigaon 6 PREFACE The Agricultural Inventory of Bongaigaon District is expected to fulfill the need of farming community, policy planner and those who are engaged in agricultural development in the district.

Telephone directory of important agriculture and related departments/ offices in Bongaigaon KVK, District 37-43 10 Chapter I Bongaigaon District in General Bongaigaon district is an administrative district in the state of Assam in northeastern India. The district headquarters are located at Bongaigaon. The district of Bongaigaon was created on 29 September, 1989 from parts of Goalpara and Kokrajhar districts. The district loss size when part of the district was split to make Chirang district in the year 2004. Bongaigaon district occupies an area of 1093 sq. km. (Statistical Handbook Assam, 2014). The district is situated in North West side of Assam, surrounded by Kokrajhar and Dhubri district in North West, Barpeta in the East and river Brahmaputra in the south. Bongaigaon is situated at an average altitude of 62.6 m with the cardinal points 26028´ to 260 54´ North latitude and 890 to 900 96´ East longitude. As per 2011 census, the total population of the district is 7,38,804. Administratively, the district is divided into two subdivisions viz. Bongaigaon and North Salmara, 3 numbers of Revenue circles viz., Bongaigaon, Boitamari, Srijangram There are five community development blocks (CD) viz., Dangtol, Boitamari, Tapattari, Srijangram and Manikpur, and 65 numbers of Gaon Panchayat. Agriculture plays an important role in the economy of the district and about 70 per cent of the rural population directly involve in agriculture as their livelihood. Rice is the main crop of the district and mono-cropping of rice is a common practice in most of the rice growing areas. There is considerable scope of crop intensification by way of increased cropping intensity. Planned productivity, diversification and modernization of various subjects of agriculture help to increase the cropping intensity. Productivity enhancement in various crops is also an important issue as there is considerable yield gap due to various regions which need to be 11 addressed. Crop diversification and productivity enhancement will also look after food and nutritional security of the people of the district. Animal husbandry is a wide spread activity in the upland farming system; however, there is need to improve the productivity level in this sector. The agro-climatic condition of the district is ideally suited to livestock farming systems and there is assured local market for various produces. Inland fish production in the region is not satisfactory and a considerable portion of the fish is to be imported from outside the district. In some areas, integrated fish farming is being practiced which have potential for further development. The industrial scenario of the district is quite encouraging. This is one of the most industrially developed district in the state. There are 52 numbers of registered MSME units under the Commissionerate of Industries and Commerce, of which 48 are micro and 4 are small. The district has 39 different types of industry of which 5 agro-based, 2 forest based, 7 textile, 2 chemical, 7 engineering, 5 electronics, 3 mineral and rest 8 are miscellaneous.

After decades of adopting peaceful means (with sporadic attacks on government property or staff), militant factions of the movement started targeting non-Bodo residents since the late 1980s. Over time, organizations and coalitions have emerged among non-Bodo communities – both recognized as indigenous or as marginalized immigrants such as Adivasis1 and Bengali-speaking Muslims2.

  • District Hiv/Aids Epidemiological Profiles
    DISTRICT HID/AIDS EPIDEMIOLOGICAL PROFILES Developed using data triangulation Assam Factsheet 2014 Assam State AIDS Control Society Khanapara, Guwahati-22 Foreword The National AIDS Control Programme (NACP) is strongly evidence-based and evidence-driven. Based on evidence from ‘Triangulation of Data’ from multiple sources and giving due weightage to vulnerability, the organizational structure of NACP has been decentralized to identified districts for priority attention. The programme has been successful in creating a robust database on HIV/AIDS through the HIV Sentinel Surveillance system, monthly programme reporting data and various research studies. However, the district level focus of the programme demands consolidated information that helps better understand HIV/AIDS scenario in each district, to enable effective targeting of prevention and treatment interventions to the vulnerable population groups and geographic areas. This technical document prepared by the SIMU division of Assam SACS is a follow up exercise of the detailed District epidemiological profiles report 2013 prepared using the information collected and analyzed during the data triangulation exercise conducted during 2011-12. The 2013 report provided useful information support to the district level health functionaries but at the same time we were informed that a concise report will be even better. So, keeping this in mind, the 2014 report is being prepared in a factsheet format which is adapted from the District Epidemiological factsheets prepared by NACO and using updated information. The reports are prepared by some of the ICTC, PPTCT, Blood bank and STI counselors who are supported by a group of Public Health experts from medical colleges and state programme officials and we are grateful to each of them for their support in this activity.

  • Introduction of the Bodos
    Chapter 2 Introduction of the Bodos India is a meeting ground of diverse races, cultures, civilizations, religions, languages, ethnic groups and societies. Streams of different human races like Austro-Asiatic, Negritos, Dravidians, Alpines, Indo-Mongoloids, Tibeto-Burman and Aryans penetrated in India at different periods through different routes .They migrated and settled in different parts of India making their own history, culture and civilization. They had contributed to the structuring of the great Indian culture, history and civilization. The Tibeto-Burman people are predominant in whole North-Eastern region. The Bodos are one of the earliest settlers in Assam. The older generation of scholars used the term 'Bodo' to denote the earliest Indo- Mongoloid migrants to eastern India who subsequently spread over different regions of Bengal, Assam and Tripura. Grierson identifies the Bodos as a section of the Assam-Burma group of the Tibeto-Burman speakers belonging to the Sino-Tibetan speech family.1 S.K. Chatterjee subscribes to the same view. According to him these people migrated to eastern India in the second millennium B.C. and a large portion of them was absorbed within societies of plains-man at quite an early state.2 Isolation caused fragmentation of the original stock and ultimately the branches assumed independent tribal identities like the Tipra, the Bodo-Kachari, the Rabha, the Dimsasa, the Chutiya etc. Rev. Sydney Endle, in his monograph, The Kacharis, used 'The Kachari' in the same wider sense incorporating all these branches. In present day socio-political terminology 'the Bodo' means the plain tribes of the Brahmaputra Valley known earlier as 'the Bodo-Kachari'.

  • PLP 2016-17 Dhubri District
    PLP 2016-17 Dhubri District EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The theme for the PLP 2015-16 is “Accelerating the pace of capital formation in agriculture and allied sector”. 1. Introduction to PLP for 2016-17 The criticality of capital formation ‘in’ and ‘for’ agriculture need not be overemphasized. However, the recent declining trend in investment credit vis-à-vis crop loan has serious implications for sustaining capital formation. The theme selected for the PLP 2016-17 is “Accelerating the pace of capital formation in agriculture and allied sector”. The PLP maps the potential in priority sector which could be exploited with institutional credit within a specified time frame. PLP is intended to provide a meaningful direction to the flow of credit to different sectors at the ground level taking into account all relevant factors. The various linkages and other support required to be provided by line departments to facilitate credit flow as planned are also listed in the PLP. NABARD in the year 2012-13 had prepared Base PLP for five years, coterminous with the XII Five year plan-(2012-17). The Base PLP projected a five year credit potential under priority sector covering Primary, Secondary and Tertiary sectors, with an emphasis on the Primary sector. These projections were based on parameters such as technical feasibility, availability of infrastructure, availability of exploitable resources, cropping pattern, agriculture practices and other developmental indices such as access to markets, etc. Some of these parameters may have undergone a change in the district since the finalization of Base PLP on account of factors such as changes in Government’s priorities and policies, strengthening of rural infrastructure, market forces, cost escalation, etc., necessitating a re-look at the credit potential for the year 2016-17.
