Chapter I Introduction

1.1 OBJECTIVES:

This Comprehensive District Agricultural Plan (C - DAP) describes what the district can achieve over a medium term of five years and how it should work to achieve it. The C – DAP has been prepared with the following objectives:-

1) To continuously raise productivity, production, employment and income in agriculture and allied activities through optimal utilization of natural and human resources;

2) To strengthen, reorganize or newly build up physical infrastructure and institutions to effectively help adopt and operate modern technologies and practices to provide further impetus to agricultural growth and rural Development;

3) To provide food security and to eliminate hunger;

4) To focus all activities in support of small and marginal farmers, poor and disadvantaged people with a view to secure social justice and to reduce poverty and distress;

5) To continuously improve economic well being and quality of life of all stake holders in the district; and

6) To help the district to take off on a faster track of growth and sustainable development.

Along with crops and their productivities the C-DAP deals with all the infrastructural and allied activities like soil health and conservation, optimal utilization of land and water resources, adequacy and purity of inputs, credit, marketing, livestock, dairying, poultry, fisheries, sericulture, agro-processing, agro services and strengthening of research, education and extension services, for continuing technological up gradation of the entire farming system.

These goals and the strategies (meaning courses of action) to achieve them have been discussed in the following chapters on different sectors and services supporting them. All the strategies are designed to continuously raise productivity.

The C-DAP proposals will provide employment to thousands of unemployed or partly employed people, raise standards of living in rural areas, reduce poverty and distress, and specially reach the benefits of growth and development to the thousands of small and marginal farmers who are mostly in distress today because of the non-viability of their farms and several other consequential handicaps, Naturally, this last group of small and marginal farmers and their handicaps are the focus of attention of many C-DAP proposals.

The most important aspect of C-DAP is the implementation of strategies. For doing it effectively we have to strengthen, reorganize or newly build up physical infrastructure and institutions to effectively help adopt and operate modern technologies and practices and to provide further impetus to agricultural growth and rural development. Earnest implementation of all C-DAP projects, schemes and programmes will result in simultaneous increments in productivity of each crop and each of the allied activities, in each farm in each village, and in each block in the district. Combined with improvements in credit, marketing, employment and other infrastructure, the overall growth is bound to have a multiplier effect. It should be certainly possible to raise farm production and farmer incomes at least by 50% over a medium term of five years. That should mean the beginning of the Second Green Revolution. The momentum generated, the self confidence gained in reprocess and the continuing upgrading of agro- technologies will continue to lift the district economy to higher and higher levels in future. Outcomes of all the efforts will remain in the farmer's hands. No one else will claim any share or tax from them. Even the access to credit will be much easier and cheaper than what it has been during the past several decades. Accomplishment of this C-DAP will thus lead to the most desired well-being of the people of the district.

1.2 GOVERNMENT OF 'S INITIATIVES :- The Planning Commission's approach paper to the 12th five year plan also reflects the national concern for inclusive growth. In fact,. that paper is titled" Towards a faster and more inclusive growth. The pro-poor inclusiveness is bound to be the future strategy of development. It shall be operative in two ways. First is that sectors like agriculture which had been neglected in the earlier decade would again be contributing to the vibrant economy. Second is that the poorer sections of the population whom the earlier growth process had bypassed shall be enabled to fully engage themselves with the development process.

The core purposes behind all the above initiatives are;

1) Rejuvenation of Agriculture and reversal of the downward trend in agricultural production;

2) Acceleration of growth of agricultural production;

3) Optimal utilization of land and water resources;

4) Creation of additional employment;

5) Reduction of poverty;

6) Immediate relief to indebted farmers;

7) Decentralized development planning with reference to location specific, potentials, needs and problems

8) Special attention to and focus generally upon poor and especially upon small and marginal farmers whose farm holdings are not viable and who for this and several other handicaps live in poverty and distress.

Looking to the above initiatives and the core purposes underlying them generally, and especially to the RKVY with its assertive precondition of decentralized comprehensive District Agriculture Plans ( C-DAPS) based upon agro climatic variations, location specific potentials , needs and problems , one can confidently say that the bad days of neglect and indifference towards this district , its development potential , its needs and its problems are at last gone. In their place a new era has dawned in which well organized and determined efforts of each and every farmer will be enthusiastically and actively supported by Gram Panchayat, NGO's. Local Technology Support Groups Banks, and higher entities in the Agricultural Department, District Administration. KVKs and the Agricultural University. The GP, NGOs and the village TSG will together ensure that no farmer or no farm remains out of the campaign or remains unsupported . Generally, the farmers will need technological advice on soil health , soil nutrients, fertilizers,, adequate and pure seeds and harvesting or marketing . The poor small and marginal farmers would , in addition , need support of agro- services, bullocks , tools implements etc, and a sort of small working capital loan for payment of those services. A tripartite arrangement may have to be made between a Bank , GP and the individual small farmer or a self help group formed by a group of small farmers for meeting expenses up to harvesting time.

1.3 Main concerns of agricultural sector in the district are summarized below:

1. Land continues to be a critical concern from many angles. On one side, size of the operational holding has been coming down significantly. On the other side, soil health has deteriorated significantly in the recent past affecting factor productivity especially of fertilizers. The reduction of the organic carbon in the soil also led to many micro-nutrient deficiencies, besides deterioration in the texture and structure of the soils which again adversely impacted moisture retention capacity. 2. Wide fluctuations in sown area as well as in irrigated area have become a common phenomenon. Weather changes, monsoon failures, un-scientific ground water exploitation, poor reservoir-management, power shortages and investment-holiday in the 1990s in surface irrigation and drainage, are mainly responsible for this unfortunate development. To get over these problems, the district should focus on conjunctive-use of surface and ground water, investments in surface irrigation and drainage, watershed management in rained areas and special effort to bring current fallows and cultivable wastes under cultivation. 3. There is a clear deceleration in crop-sector growth in recent past. This is, on account of many factors including failure in maintaining soil health and inadequate investments in irrigation. But the most notable among all the factors responsible for the poor performance is the failure to bridge yield gaps in almost all the major crops. These gaps are because of knowledge gaps or lack of skills and awareness or due to resource constraints. Critical interventions are needed to bridge the substantial yield gaps. 4. Reinvigorating extension and research systems is crucial as investment in both these areas is low when compared to the same in neighboring district. Without a good extension system, other interventions cannot be implemented. 5. Substantial indebtedness in the farming community and poor credit coverage are other matters of concern. Due to rise in cost of production, the credit needs have increased. But due to increase in the oral tenancy contracts, the accessibility to credit from formal financial institutions has become difficult, particularly for the tenant farmers. Decline in long-term credit for making investments in assets like wells has become a serious concern. High rate of failures in digging wells is another issue about which the district has to worry. 6. There is urgency to un-burden agriculture by shifting substantial man-power to non-farm sector, as gainful employment opportunities are limited in agricultural sector. 7. Rain fed agriculture continues to be less rewarding. More than 80% of the area under rained cultivation is covered by jawar, bajra, pulses and cotton. The poor performance in oil seeds sector has caused stagnation in the crop sector. Besides seed, extension and credit which are common to both irrigated and rain fed agriculture, special focus on watershed management, diversification to tree crops and good mechanization are vital for rain fed agriculture. 8. Improving the marketing efficiency by modernization, expansion of infrastructure and establishment of specialized markets for commodities like banana, turmeric, chillies, onions etc, is the need of the hour. 9. Minimizing production losses, substitution of inefficient native breeds by more input- responsive breeds and expansion of procurement network are needed for the development of livestock sector. 10. Poor productivity levels of fruit crops because of large extents under old and senile gardens needs early attention. Use of hybrid seeds in vegetable crops, expansion of areas under modern and efficient micro-irrigation systems, poly-houses for quality and off-season production and investments for modernizing markets and processing units are the interventions needed in horticultural sector. 11. Poor productivity levels of fish in case of reservoirs and tanks are concerns which need to be addressed. The gap in productivity levels across districts needs special attention. Modern mechanized crafts and quality infrastructure are also necessary for exploitation of marine resources. 12. Productivity levels in mulberry based sericulture are quite lower than what they are in neighboring China. Reeling infrastructure is also very poor and inefficient in the district. Both the problems related to production and processing are to be addressed.

1.4 Areas of focus under RKVY (production growth) The components/activities which would be eligible for project based assistance under RKVBY (Production Growth) are elaborated below. This is an illustrative list and the district may choose other components/activities, but ensure that they are reflected adequately in the DAP. a) Integrated development of major food crops such as wheat, coarse cereals, minor millets, pulses, oilseeds: Assistance can be provided for making available certified/HYV seeds to farmers; production of breeders seed from institutions such as public sector seed production, production of foundation seed; seed treatment; Farmer Field Schools at demonstration sites; training of farmers etc. Similar support would be provided for development of other crops such as sugarcane, cotton or any other crop/variety that may be of importance to the district. b) Agriculture mechanization: Assistance can be provided to individual beneficiaries for farm mechanization efforts especially for improved and gender friendly tools, implements and machinery. However, assistance for large equipment eg. Tractor, combine harvester, sugarcane harvester, cotton picker etc. for which individual ownership may not be economically viable, assistance should only be limited for establishing custom hiring centers under RKVY (Infrastructure & assets) stream. c) Activities related to enhancement of soil health: Assistance can be provided to the farmers for distributing soil health cards; micro nutrient demonstration; training of farmers for promotion of organic farming including printing of publicity/utility literature; amelioration of soils affected with conditions such as alkalinity and acidity. d) Development of rain fed farming systems in the outside watershed areas: Assistance for promoting integrated farming system (agriculture, horticulture, livestock, fisheries etc.) generating livelihoods for farmers Below the Poverty Line (BPL). e) Integrated Pest Management Schemes: This would include training of farmers through FFS (Farmer Field Schools) etc. on pest management practices; printing of literature/other awareness programme. f) Promoting extension services: This would include new initiatives for skill development and training in the farming community and to revamp the existing district agriculture extension systems. g) Activities related to enhancement of horticulture production: Assistance will be available for nursery development and other horticulture activities. h) Animal husbandry and fisheries development activities: Assistance will be available for improvement in fodder production, genetic up-gradation of cattle and buffaloes, enhancement of milk production, enlarging raw material base for leather industry, improvement in livestock health, poultry development, development of small ruminants and enhanced fish production. i) Study tours of farmers: Study tours of farmers within the country especially to research institutions, model farms etc. j) Organic and bio-fertilizers: Support for decentralized production at the village level and their marketing etc. This will including vermi composting, biodynamic farming and superior technologies for better production k) Sericulture: Sericulture up to the stage of cocoon production along with extension system for cocoon and silk yarn production and marketing.

1.5 Purpose of DAPs The district agricultural plans are being prepared in this background to serve the purpose of attracting more investments for the development of agriculture. The district agricultural plans are being prepared in a bottom-up manner to assess the requirements of funds for development of agriculture and allied sectors in each of the districts. While seeking support from RKVY, the state government is interested in mobilizing funds for agricultural development from other schemes and sources. Although when the development plans are prepared, the available funds may be falling short of requirements, other opportunities may arise in due course to access additional funds needed from donors and development investors.

1.5 Methodology

Beed district has divided the 2 Agro-climatic zones (Western Maharastra Scarcity

Zone (MH-6) Central Maharashatra plateau Zone (MH-7)) in to 6 farming situations based on the cropping pattern, availability of irrigation source, soil class, temperature levels and rainfall data. In each farming situation, careful analysis was carried out on the yield gaps for each crop. The yield gap was calculated as the difference between front line demonstrations yield of that crop in that specific farming situation and the representative (average) farmers’ yield of that crop in the same situation. The factors responsible for the yield gap were identified through discussions with the farmers and the scientists from SAU. The gap was mainly on account of differences in knowledge, skills, awareness and resources. Knowledge, awareness and skill gaps could be bridged only through strengthening extension system, training and demonstrations. Resource gaps are planned to be bridged by promoting investments and subsidizing critical inputs.

After completing yield gap analysis for all the crops in all the farming situations, the attention has turned to administration of interventions at the field level. There are 1024 gram panchayats in district, each covering a population of 500 to 15000. The factors responsible for the yield gap were identified through discussions with the farmers and the scientists from SAU. The gap was mainly on account of differences in knowledge, skills, awareness and resources. Knowledge, awareness and skill gaps could be bridged only through strengthening extension system, training and demonstrations. Resource gaps are planned to be bridged by promoting investments and subsidising critical inputs.

The planning is also done from the micro-level. After the setting up of Agricultural Technology Management Agency (ATMA), there is an emphasis on micro level planning. Block level technology teams are conducting diagnostic surveys in different farming situations and are identifying constraints. Six villages are covered by these surveys and the feedback is collected from a number of groups of farmers. Wherever possible, sarpanches and members of the gram panchayat were involved with the processes of taking feedback and diagnosing the constraints. The data collected from the panchayat level are aggregated first at the taluka level. The data on area, production, productivity, problem soils etc are validated at the taluka level. The data are finally aggregated at the district level. The thrust areas are decided based on the feedback from villages. The objectives and concerns expressed by the farmers also relate to increasing productivity, building up of soil fertility, market oriented production, mechanization and micro-irrigation to improve precision and resource productivity. The aspirations of the farmers are reflected in high growth rates targeted for the XII plan period. Production strategies are planned for different sub-sectors and the investment requirements are estimated. Horticultural crops and sericulture were also included in the taluka level agricultural plan. Other allied departments like animal husbandry, fisheries etc have developed the plans similarly and given their Taluka level plans separately which were integrated in the District Agricultural Plan.

CHAPTER III SWOT ANALYSIS OF THE DISTRICT SECTION – I

3.1 : INTRODUCTION : Analysis of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats is called SWOT Analysis and is an effective tool in decision making. The job of the Development Administration is to: i) Capitalize upon the strengths; ii) Minimize the effect of weaknesses; iii) Take advantage of opportunities; and iv) Avoid or overcome threats.

We set certain objectives like raising of productivity and production, social justice and removal of poverty. SWOT analysis is to look at the possibilities of achieving them from the input end. It is to check how the existing conditions would affect the future programme of action for development. Strengths and weaknesses are two internal attributes of the district while opportunities and threats are of external environment.

Strength relates to the potential for future development. It is a potential which is as yet unused or underutilized. Strengths do not get translated into development until they are matched with opportunities.

Weaknesses of the district are negative aspects or liabilities which tend to make it less effective on its path of development. They are of two types, i) the incurable ones and ii) the correctible ones. Weaknesses cause great harm when they are matched with threats from the environment. An example may be, of poor agricultural practices subject to uncertain climate conditions. Similarly, obsolete technology is a weakness. Old traditions inhibit acceptance of improvements and to that extent add to the harm of that weakness.

Opportunity: as used in this chapter is any chance to follow a new or revised strategy which would benefit the district in the process of growth and development. Opportunities always exist and only need to be identified. Most opportunities have to be sought. In a few cases, they have to be and can be created. The focus of development administration must always be on identifying additional opportunities, selecting those which are most promising and capitalizing on them.

Threats are probable events which can seriously hamper the process of development in the district. Threats always exist. They become less severe if they are recognized soon enough and care is taken to guard against them. The development process should avoid the threats in the environment or overcome them.

Analysis of strength, weaknesses, opportunities and threats (SWOT) is a complex process. It can deal with the whole system or organization of growth and development at once.

We are presenting examples and lists of a few strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats of the district in the following sections (2), (3), (4) and (5). Issues emerging from those lists are presented in section (6). Strategies or action proposals to deal with these issues are discussed in chapters 4, 5 and 6.

This SWOT analysis very briefly shows, what the district is capable of doing, what it is doing and what it should be doing. Development is a dynamic process, continuously making impact and changes in all the four aspects of the SWOT analysis. A periodical review of SWOT should, therefore, be an essential element of any development process.

SECTION – 2:

3.2 STRENGTHS:  Wide Range of Crops Can be Grown in Kharif & Rabi Season.  Good no. of Milching cattle's.  Well Irrigation Potential (15%) to Facilitate Crop Production.  Soils are fertile & in good physical condition due to limited use of fertilizer & Irrigation.  Cotton & Sugarcane are the major Cash Crops.  Good Network of Sugar Industries.  Good Network of Cotton Ginning & Pressing Units.  Good Network of Cooperatives Milk Collection Centers.  Soybean is a Major Diversified Crop.  Major farming systems are Agriculture, Agri + Horti., Agri.+ Dairy, Agri.+ Dairy + Sericulture,  Growing awareness regarding bio-fertilizers and bio-pesticides.  Major Soils Suitable for cultivation of Horti. Crops like s. orange, Mango, Custard Apple, Pomegranate, K. Lime etc.  Major Area under Mulberry Cultivation & Sericulture Production.  Availability of abundant labours.  Major Potential for Water Harvesting works.  Dry land Horticulture crops like Anola & Custard Apple area is increasing significantly.  Increasing trend in adoption of improved practices in cash crops and horticulture crops  Increasing area under micro-irrigation system.  Increasing no of Farmer Groups - Cotton, Pomegranate, Mango, Vegetable growers and marketing Groups.  A Sago production factory developed so a new crop introduced in district is Tapioca and area of this crop also increasing.

SECTION – 3 3.3 WEAKNESSES:

 Lack of Proper Transportation Facility  Scarcity zone with Sporadic Rains results in crop failure  Non Availability of Processing units for fruits and Vegetables  Irrigation Potential is not utilized properly.  In-situ water conservation is not in practice  The milk cooperative are becoming non viable  Imbalanced application of chemical fertilizers  Existing monoculture practice has limitation of risk management  Low lying area with deep soils is highly prone by ill drainage.  lack of good forage and fodder Variety  No genetic improvement in goat.  No forward & backward linkages for livestock products

We are presenting the list of weaknesses under different subheads like Social, infrastructural, economic other than agriculture, economic, agricultural and governance. C-DAP strategies naturally focus on the last two groups.

SOCIAL WEAKNESSES: Beed is a socially backward district; identified as such also by GOI’s Sharma Committee. Poor literacy: Rate for 7 + age group in 2001 was 68.48 % against the state average of 77.27%. Among 35 districts of the state the district rank on the literacy count is 30 i.e. 5th from the bottom. Its ranking for schooling years is 29th with value of 4.11 against the state average of 4.97. Dropout rates are also very high.

POOR HEALTH SERVICES. i) Infant mortality rate is lower at 52 than the state average of 74 for 1991. ii) Many Social disparities prevailing in rural areas. iii) Many gender disparities. iv) Low Human Development index. Beed district HDI is 0. 47 against the state average of 0.58. The district rank for HDI is 18 out of 35. v) The percentage of below poverty line families in the district is 25.84. vi) The indices (i) to (vii) above show that the quality of life in the district is generally poor. vii) There is huge temporary migration (about 2 lakh families) to other districts/states as sugar cane cutter workers. They migrate from October to March to sugar factories, and again return to their villages during Kharif season. Their social life is disrupted; education of children suffers.

3.4 INFRASTRUCTURAL: i) The greatest infrastructural gap in the process of growth and development is the shortage of electricity (power) supply resulting in load shedding in the rural areas for the whole day and more. Farmers feel handicapped and harassed as the agricultural labourers are reluctant to work and help during nights. There is water available but it cannot be lifted and served to the thirsty crops. There is no possibility of correcting the situation in the plan period. The development process of digging new wells and expanding micro-irrigation systems on old and new wells will get stuck up as it depends on how we face and overcome this weakness. Going back to diesel engines and pumps seems to be one remedy. But it means restarting manufacturing of diesel engines and pumps to the level of 1960/s. Higher prices and shortages of oil will mean another weakness in that situation also. ii) Poor agricultural credit: The co-operative moment and the D.C.C. bank are both very weak. Membership of the primary coop. credit society does not cover a majority of farmers, especially the small and marginal farmers and other asset- poor or asset-less groups. Moreover the primary co-op. societies do not go beyond short term crop finance. The nationalized and other commercial banks appear to have liberalized lending policies. But they have, as yet, not strengthened their organizational networks at the grass-roots. A large number of Bank employees appear to be still holding to the old thinking of credit worthiness and returns. iii) Poor Network of Communication: With the rapid expansion of Telephones, Radio and TVS, a few informative programmes are run among many other entertainment items. But their duration is small and time not suitable to a majority of farmers. In fact, there is in almost every village a small group of young farmers very curious about modern technologies and willing to do experimenting on their own farms. There is need of exclusive channels all the time running agricultural programmes relevant for the day and the season.

The tenor and tone of the relays should be appropriate to the 21st century audience and technology. Their audience is no longer the illiterate ignorant and awestruck mass of villagers. Today’s farmers are curious to know what practices which countries are adopting and with what results. They are to be informed and motivated to Act.

3.5 ECONOMIC NONAGRICULTURAL WEAKNESSES : i) Poor Industrial progress. There is no major manufacturing industry in the district. ii) There were only 179 registered factories and only 140 working factories in the district in 2011 with only 4659 workers. Percentage share of the district in the income from the Secondary Sector of the State was 0.81% in the three year average for 2011-2012. iii) Low per capita income. For Beed district the 2011-12 value was 55139 rupees against State average of Rs. 95339.

3.6 ECONOMIC – AGRICULTURAL WEAKNESSES: i) A major weakness is the skewed land holding or land ownership pattern. 51.4% of land holders in the district are holding and operating holdings of less than 1 hectares together holding 19.79% of cultivated area and 30.06% of land holders are holding of 1 to 2 hectares together holding 32.08% of cultivated area. Most of these small holdings are fragmented, meaning that they consist of more than one piece of land scattered or located away from each other. Those holdings are un-economic and non-viable. The owners do not afford to keep a pair of bullocks. Their cultivation is indifferent. The lands are rarely deep ploughed and do not at all get any manures or fertilizers for soil health. As a result their soils have gone on degrading and their productivities are very low. Thus 19.79% of the cultivated area is not contributing in the process of agricultural growth and 51.4% of the holders are living a low level of life of bare existence. We have proposed an innovative scheme for organizing these asset poor farmers in Self Help Groups and train and help them to undertake agro- services and small agro-producing enterprises in the village which are critical for rejuvenating the whole system of agriculture of the village. In the process these SHGs will also bring their own holdings back to viability and with additional employment and earnings get out of poverty. ii) Second important weakness is deteriorating soil health. There are no adequate facilities of testing soils for advice as to the nutrients or other inputs required for restoration of soil health or enrichment. As a result productivities of all crops are lower. We have made proposals for a network of soil testing laboratories and upgrading of the existing ones. iii) Vast areas in the district have not yet been covered for watershed development. As a result precious soils are continuously getting eroded and scarce water resource is lost through floods and is not conserved or stored as a recharged ground water. We have proposed that watershed development work of all remaining areas should be undertaken and completed in the next 5 years. iv) IRRIGATION: a) Rain fed area is 83% and irrigated only 17%. We have not been using even the available potential properly. Digging of new wells and farm ponds, completion of watershed development, maintenance of the existing canal system and introduction of micro irrigation systems are a few but very important remedies we have proposed. b) There is over watering of certain crops especially of sugarcane. That does not add to yields but is likely to harm the soil through salinity or water logging. v) Crops: a) Proportion of high value crops is low but can be increased. Recommended crop rotations or combinations are not followed. b) Cultivation practices do not fit the requirements of the crops or modern technologies. c) There are productivity gaps as the average yields for all the crops are far below what has been achieved by progressive farmers with best practices within the district. vi) Seeds, nursery plants or even chemical fertilizers or pesticides with standards of purity are not available in time and in adequate quantities. vii) Organic manures have become rare. A lot of village or town sweepings and stunk or leaves are not composted and go waste. viii) There is unbalanced use of chemical fertilizers both by focusing on a few selected crops like sugarcane and in uncontrolled doses likely to harm the crops and soils. ix) Proven inputs like vermi culture, Bio fertilizers or Bio-pesticides are rarely used. There is vast scope for their use as well as their local production. Similar is the case for Bio-dynamic farming.

X) MECHANIZATION: The level of farm mechanization is low. Labour shortages are already experienced in the peak seasons. Mechanization and new tools and small machines would help the situation and relieve drudgery of workers. We have advocated local production of improved tools, implements and smaller machines as well as their repairs and those of heavier machines.

XI) LOW LEVELS OF ACTIVITY IN ALL ALLIED SECTORS There have been many failures and setbacks to the allied sectors because of management gaps and improper functioning of cooperative societies. Vast potentials exist for addition to incomes and employment and meeting the needs of the people and the demands of the market. All these weaknesses should be corrected.

3.7 GOVERNANCE: There appear to be many executive gaps likely to slow down the process of implementation of the programmes, schemes and projects proposed by this C- DAP. We describe below the weaknesses which are likely to cause those executive gaps. i) The district has staff under the department of Agriculture including those working for extension i.e. for motivating the farmers and to reach the most modern technologies to them. This huge extension establishment in the district needs upgrading through very intensive and rigorous rounds of training and motivation. ii) Those who are senior and well qualified and who also show promise for extension work may have to be picked up as Trainers. Those who do not like extension work may be posted to other duties. iii) Qualified and Trained workers staying in the extension work may be given better scales. Those picked up as effective trainers should be given promotions to higher ranks. iv) The whole work of extension should be re-modeled to fit the 21st century requirements of both the modernize of technologies and of the reformed approaches to the now fairly awakened groups of farmers. The extension worker needs in fact to function as a grass roots driver in the movement for development. Upgrading of the present day staff with effective training and motivating them for their new roles are tough challenges for the department not so much for the expenses involved, but for the human efforts needed to accomplish them. v) Presently, the coordination linkages between different departments and between different wings of the same department are weak. The interface between the departments and Panchayat Raj bodies also appears to be weak. Those missing links combined with mediocre performance of most of the entities are likely to cause many executive gaps. iv) Competent and strong executive authorities for implementation of the C- DAP will, therefore have to be set up with full backing of the State and Central Governments.

Section (4) : OPPORTUNITIES:-

 Scope for Value addition in millets  Scope for in-situ moisture conservation and water management  Scope for agro forestry, Farm Forestry etc.  Scope for Olive Oil Plantation  Scope for animal husbandry activity  Scope for improving the productivity through watershed treatment  Scope for Promoting dry land Horticulture like Custard Apple, Anola, Tamarind etc.  Scope for mulberry plantation and silkworm rearing centre  Scope for composite fish farming  Scope for IPM/INM & Seed treatments  Scope for artificial ground water recharge  Scope to improve productivity through area treatment  The Existing food grain based farming has potentials for improvements  The Existing livestock based farming has Potential for Improvement  Potential of Good fodder for milch animal  Scope for Increasing Rearing Centers of Sericulture.  Scope for increasing fish production due to 16 medium project & 166 minor irrigation projects.  Scope for utilizing Fish breeding centre at dam.  Scope for increasing area under forest & pasture cover.  Due to abundant cereals & pulses production, there is scope for milch & poultry production

Section (5) THREATS :

 Growing cost of cultivation and demising returns from the farm produce.  Extensive over exploitation of groundwater is at alarming stage.  Cyclic drought at every 3-5 years interval ruins the economy of farmer.  Shortage of fodder during drought.  Unsustainable groundwater use affects the drinking water availability.  Low line areas with deep soils are affected by improper drainage.  Growing cost of livestock feeds and healthcare  Indiscriminate use of water and chemicals is affecting the fertility and physical properties of the soil.  Extreme use of pesticides leading to losses at both the ends i.e. cost of pesticides and outbreak of pest population.  Shortage of employment during drought.  Growing energy crisis may adversely affect the irrigation potential.

(4) SECTORAL / REGIONAL GROWTH DRIVERS OF THE DISTRICTS:

The farming system of the district had continued, until recently, as a tradition. There had been no express driving force behind it. Farmers own survival and sustenance were the only motives which instinctively kept them struggling against mostly unfavorable conditions of climate and social and economic systems under feudal regimes.

The SWOT analysis shows that the district has not yet been able to take good care of its natural resources. Nor have the existing potentials of production been optimally utilized. With a view to actualization of the vision for i) the district, ii) the farmers in general, and iii) the asset poor and asset less farmers in particular, it is imperative that from now on, the focus and the thrust of all development efforts in the district (including this C-DAP) should be on raising agricultural production, productivities and production capabilities. The CDAP has, therefore, proposed that 'production capability' should be the Growth Driver, for the entire farming system of the district for the next ten years. As a consequence C-DAP has designed all strategies, projects and programmes to raise and maximize production capability of i) each farmer, ii) each piece of land, iii) each unit of water or other inputs, iv) each unit of investment, v) each crop and vi) each unit of the other activities allied to agriculture. (Like live stock, dairy, poultry, fisheries and sericulture)

The other alternatives which may have been considered as growth drivers are i) technology orientation, ii) market needs and iii) Farmer's returns or profits etc. All these are, however, included in the concept of production capability as supporting strategies. Maximization of production capability would naturally be built upon modern Science and Technology. Moreover, we are not committing the system to any particular crop or crop combination or any one product. There would always be a choice to suit the market needs or the ruling prices. Further the-farmer would always be free to look to his own returns and profits.

C-DAP concept of production capability as a growth driver is also in keeping with all the notions of development as raisins of capabilities is accepted as the true object of development all over the world.

Production capability includes the production know-bow, input systems, practices, tools, implements and equipment required capability to improve all those factors. For service organizations like SHGs it includes skills as well as required supporting materials and processes required for rendering those agro-service.

3.8 OUT OF THE SEVERAL PROPOSALS MADE IN THE C DAP: We are highlighting a few below, which, in over opinion, set the direction of development and or which the success of the C DAP should depend.

(i) The massive programme of watershed development combined with the expansion of soil testing facilities and supported by inputs for soil health enhancement is the key driving force for the sustained growth and long term development of agriculture in the district. All the small and marginal holdings which are degraded for want of inputs and will be covered by these two very positive aspects of soil conservation and soil health enhancement. Combined with other inputs and improvements, one third of all the cultivated area which has not been making any positive contribution to production will come back in the production stream,

(II) DILIGENT WATER RESOURCES MANAGEMENT: The huge watershed development programme proposed in the C-DAP will augment ground water availability substantially. Its diligent use through old and new wells fitted with micro irrigation systems will double the irrigated areas, enable growing of high value crops including horticulture and raise their productivities. Thousands of farm ponds will provide irrigation for at least one more crop and improve the viability of presently nonviable farms. Better maintenance and management of the canal systems of the existing projects will add large areas under irrigation.

(iii) Empowerment of Asset Poor and asset less farmers. The proposed empowerment will, a) Help rejuvenation of agriculture in the village through the good services provided by the SHG/S; b) Help rejuvenate their own presently non-viable farms through their own good services and input; and c) Lift the more than 60% of the total farmer families from their BPL marginal living to a self employed, wage earning and dignified status of well being. The proposed empowerment will make a quiet but, fully constructive socio-economic revolution. iv) Improving productivities of all the crops through better practices and inputs will be another driving force for growth. Raising the areas under higher value crops will raise incomes of the farmers. There should be an all-round effort to fill in all productivity gaps. v) Effective extension and intensive training of farmers are two key elements of C- DAP. The whole process of dissemination of modem technology and acceleration of growth of agricultural production depends on how we conduct these two driving i.e. direction setting activities. vi) Peoples participation: The C-DAP is proposing another key strategy for securing people's participation and support to its programmes. The proposal is to promote formation of an Association For progressive Farming separately for each block with village wise branches and a district wise federation. These associations will constitute the people's participation compliment to the C-DAP mission.

The C-DAP will be directly approved by the DPC or DPDC. Several of the elements like training, organizing, or monitoring are the responsibility of people's representative bodies like Z.Ps, Panchayat Samitis, GPs or NGO/s like ATMA, KVK etc.

Agriculture itself and several supporting activities are in the private sector. This should mean that the process will not be much burdened by official inertia or indifference. The reward being their own district's development and well being of the people, we do hope that everyone concerned would do his best and make the C-DAP a success.

***** CHAPTER IV DEVELOPMENT OF AGRICULTURE SECTOR

4.1 INTRODUCTION:

Agriculture is the major occupation of majority of the population in Beed district. Economic, industrial, educational, social development of this area is dependent on agricultural production. Despite of higher promotions per capita availability of food over time did not increase significantly. The growth rate of agricultural production is only around 2 per cent. The growth rate of production in agriculture must be more than the growth rate of population. Hence there is an urgent need to accelerate agricultural growth to address issues on food security, nutritional adequacy and income generation. This can be achieved by identifying the problems in crop production, infrastructure facilities, issues related to the natural resources, input management and accordingly there is need to improve agricultural services keeping in view the vision and objectives.

4.2 LAND USE: The total geographical area of Beed district is 1068605 ha. and the net sown area is 876000 ha Out of net sown area, the area sown more than once is about 49104 ha and hence gross cropped area has increased up to 1038900 ha (97.22 per cent of total geographical area) and the cropping intensity in the district is 118.59 per cent. The area under forest is 22973 ha which is only 2.15 per cent of the total geographical area. Cultivable waste and fallow land is about 2.74 per cent and 6.68 per cent of total geographical area respectively which can also be converted as productive land in future. (Table-1) The land use pattern of Beed district is compared with the land use pattern of Maharashtra state.

4.3 SOIL HEALTH: (BEED) The soils in Beed district are very much as regards the capability classes and fertility. There are shallow soils in , Ashti and parts at Beed taluka while there are deep vertisoils in Majalgaon, Georai along the river banks of Godavari and

1 Sindhphana. The shallow soil have 80-90 days growing period for crops. Majalgaon taluka has 4600 hectare at class I land and need to be utilized for high growth rates of production and productivity. The soil constrain are given below as swell shy ink soil base some problems. The caution exchange capacity ranges between 20 to 40 moles.

Constraints:  This does not allow favourable air water ratio around roots.  Occurrence of Calcium carbonate induces imbalance in nutrient availability.  Shallow soil poses a problem of low water retention capacity and low organic matter.  Multi-nutrient deficiency  Susceptible to Low hydraulic conductivity and hence water stagnation or longer duration for Vapsa condition erosion.  Soil health in terms of physical, chemical and biological condition is poor.

Potentials:

 Soils provide fairly long duration of growing period.  Soils are productive if properly managed.  Soils suitability facilitates growing of number of different crops.  Irrigation facilities further increases productivity.

Land Management Strategies:  Watershed development needs first priority.  Watershed based crop planning is a must in order to exploit high potential of the district.  Soil water storage and long growth periods for crops available in black soils should be properly utilized for increasing growth rate of productivity.  Grapes, mango, tamarind and custard appal based horticulture need to be developed under larger areas.  Adopt recommended practices of organic manures and fertilizer on the basis of soil test.

In order to achieve the 4% growth some of the important steps and projects are suggested.

The imbalances in nutrient availability, physical conditions and micro nutrient deficiency situation have led to deterioration of soil health. The first and foremost job is to restore soil health so that productivity increases on sustainable basis. The first and foremost job is to restore soil health so that productivity increases on sustainable basis. The important steps are suggested here. The projects regarding soil and land care management have been formulated. There are several aspects of soil health which include soil testing laboratories, production of bio-fertilizers, compost and vermi-compost preparation, green manuring and organic farming. Separate provision for integrated watershed development programme of each taluka is presented in the report.

4.4 Water Resources and Management:

Availability of surface water in region is less than other regions of Maharashtra as under

Sr. Availability Water Region no. m3 per ha. 1 Marathwada 1500 cn3 2 Vidarbh 4348 cn3 3 Rest of Maharashtra 9100 cn3

Normal requirement of water for irrigation is 3000 m3/Ha. as per Maharashtra irrigation commission. Availability of surface water in Beed district is low of the order of 1386 m3/Ha, against requirement of 3000 m3/ha. The average rainfall for Beed district is various from 575 to 760 mm. All eleven talukas have been included in as latest list of 195 DPAP talukas of Maharashtra Government.

3

The total availability of ground water in the district is about 127502 Ham. The no. of existing wells is about 56961. About 4879 wells are in the command of irrigation projects where as balance 52082 wells in non command area need recharging. There exists potential for dug give additional about 70000 wells as per latest survey.

Kundalika, Saraswati, Sindphana, Borna, Gunwati, Wan, Mehekajri are some of the main rivers flowing in the district. flow in the northern Border whereas Manjra flows on the southern position of the district. Two major irrigation projects viz. Manjra Project and Jaikwadi project have already been completed along with 7 medium irrigation projects and 252 minor irrigation projects.

Thus the total surface water potential of the district as per present plan is about 153488 ha. This potential does not include irrigation due to tanks below 100 ha, percolation tanks, underground Bandharas and small K.T. wears. It is obligatory that the balance irrigation potential is created in next four years and all area brought under irrigation.

Actual irrigation during the year 2010-11 is only of the order of 153488 ha. The low utilization of created irrigation potential is mainly due to irregular special distribution of rainfall resulting in non availability of adequate storage of water at times of need, poor maintenance and repairs of irrigation project.

In view of the paucity of water in general in Marathwada, it is obligatory that all available water is used most economically and efficiently by switching over to micro irrigation to feasible extent. In addition to efficient use of available water, equity demands that additional water is diverted from water surplus regions of Maharashtra to this district by implementing inter basin transfer project.

The following measures are recommended for judicious, economic and efficient use of +all available water.

4 a) The existing canal and distribution system of irrigation projects in operation is renovated and modernized so as to ensure that water in adequate capacity reaches all created potential area in next 5 years. b) All irrigation projects presently planned and those under construction are completed in next 5 years and irrigation potential created, thereby ensuring that about 218000 ha. of actual potential is effective. c) About 25% of the total surface irrigation potential of 218000 Ha. Viz. 54500 is brought under micro irrigation 50% of this area i.e. about 27250 Ha be brought under drip irrigation and balance 27250 ha. be provided with sprinkler irrigation in next 4 years. d) All the existing 56000 wells outside command area of irrigation projects are recharged so as to ensure increased availability of water in next 5 years. e) About 70000 new wells are dug and completed in next 5 years Govt. may facilitate granting of loans to farmers by giving guaranty. f) 50% of the total wells in district i.e. 63000 are provided with drip irrigation facility and balance 50% i.e. 63000 wells are provided with sprinkler irrigation facilities in next 4 years. In this context it is proposed that 90% subsidy be provided to all farmers in view of shortage of water and the farmer’s contribution is limited to 10% only. However while preparing budget estimates, Govt. subsidy is assumed at 50% only as per existing rules. However increasing subsidy to 90% is strongly recommended so as to force the cultivator to switch to micro irrigation and our ambitious programme becomes feasible and implementable. The same principle of 90% subsidy recommended to for switching from surface irrigation to micro irrigation. g) Existing farm ponds provide film to achieve the protective irrigation to the crops in next two years. h) Encouraging and making obligatory participatory irrigation by forming water user’s societies so as to ensure efficient use of available water.

Statement showing requirement of funds every year is enclosed for ready reference.

4.5: MAJOR CROPS IN THE DISTRICT:

5 CROPPING PATTERN AND PRODUCTIVITY: Agriculture and allied activities are the main sources of livelihood for majority of rural masses and control the economy of the district. Out of total geographical area (1068605 ha) of Beed, the net sown area is 876000 ha. and total gross cropped area is 1038900 ha (Table-2). About 73.91 percent of total gross cropped area is under Kharif crops, (Table-3) and 26.01 percent is under rabi crops. About 37.57 percent of the gross cropped area is cultivated for different cereal crops such as Sorghum, Bajra, Maize, Wheat, 11.98 percent area for pulses (Pigeon pea, Gram, Green gram, Black gram), 11.69 percent area for oilseeds (Soybean, Safflower, Sunflower, Groundnut), 37.83 percent area for cotton, 3.98 percent area for sugarcane and other area for Fruits, Vegetables etc. Proportion of Bajra is maximum in Kharif season followed by Cotton, Pigeon pea, Soybean, Sugarcane, Kh.Jawar etc. Similarly proportion of R. Jowar is maximum in rabi season. Wheat, Sugarcane, Gram, rabi Jowar is cultivated on irrigated area.

Average yield of cotton is only 196 kg/ha of lint (2011-12 to 2013-14), which is lower as compared to state average (Table 4.4). Average yield of cotton in the district is also very low when it is compared with frontline demonstration. Second important crop of this area is rabi Jowar which is grown on 1.65 lakh ha. area of the district and average yield of rabi Jowar is only 740 kg / ha.( 2011-12 to 2013-14). (Table 4.4) The average yields of Bajra, Kh. Jowar, Tur, Mung, Udid are also not satisfactory. The yields of crops, which are grown on irrigated area are higher as compared to rainfed. But, the proportion of irrigated area is very low, which needs to be increased.

Growth rates required to achieve the yield obtained in frontline demonstration in 5 years are shown in table no. 4. It is possible to improve the productivity of crop with the growth rate of 6 to 10 percent per year under improved agricultural services. Growth rates of different crops in last 3 years are shown in Table no. 5. This can be improved by adoption of better Management practices.

IRRIGATED AREA: The total source wise irrigated area of the district is 176636 ha, which is 17 percent of total cropped area (Table 4.6). Maximum irrigated area occurs in

12 Georai Tahsil (34774 ha. while minimum irrigated area in Wadawani Tahsil 475 ha. Major source of irrigation in this district is open well through, which maximum area is irrigated (143531 ha. (Table 4.6). It is well known fact that crop yield increases under irrigated condition (table 4.8, 4.9). It is possible to take 2 to 3 crops per year on the same piece of land one after another. Hence, it is proposed to increase the irrigated area up to maximum possible limit, as early as possible.

Irrigated area can be increased by 50% or so if modern methods of irrigation such as drip or sprinkles are used. It is also suggested that necessary arrangements for improved on farms surface irrigation methods be made.

CROPS AND CROPPING SYSTEMS IN IRRIGATED AREA: Irrigation in Beed District is 176636 ha, but the actual irrigation in last year is less (table-8), Wheat, R. Jowar, Sugarcane, Cotton are the major crops grown under irrigated conditions. Crop yields are higher under irrigated condition. Land utilization efficiency increases due to irrigation and hence, it is suggested to increase irrigated area. Irrigated area can be increased by constructing minor, medium or major irrigation projects as early as possible and wells in untapped ground water areas considering the availability of rainwater. Irrigated area can also be increased up to 20%-25% (of treated area) by integrated Watershed Development Work.

After construction of irrigation projects and integrated watershed development work, it is expected that irrigated area may increase in Beed District.

The crops which generate higher monetary return should be preferred in irrigated area. The irrigation water is not available for all the area for all the crops in the district. It means water is a limiting input. In this situation our aim should be to harvest more yield per unit of water. Awareness amongst the farmers in this regard should be created so that, they should try to convert the irrigation water into more agricultural production and ultimately higher monetary returns. At present, most of the farmers, prefer sugarcane crop. Sugarcane requires about 1600 mm of irrigation water i.e. 16000 m3 water for one hectare area. If same quantity of water is used for chilli crop, more than 2 ha. area can be irrigated or if it is used for onion, it is possible to irrigate three hectares of area and the total monetary return of chillies or onion will be much higher as compared to sugarcane. This concept needs to be explained to all farmers in training programmes.

Sweet orange is also important cash crop in this area which requires less quantity of irrigation water (1200mm i.e. 12000m3 per ha. per year) as compared to sugarcane. Area under this crop should be increased under judicious water management.

15 Area of cotton in this district is more i.e. 3.69 Lakh ha. but only 10.82% area is irrigated (Table 7). Proportion of rain fed area is maximum hence the average yield is only 196 kg / ha of lint (5.94 q. / ha of seed cotton). Priority should be given to this crop for irrigation because it gives much higher yield under irrigated condition as compared to other crops. Cotton is a two seasonal crop (duration is 170-180 days) maximum growth period occurs in rainy season, hence irrigation requirement of cotton in this area is only about 250 mm, it means only two irrigations are required. Under irrigated conditions, it is possible to harvest more than 30-35 q/ha of seed cotton. Hence, it is suggested that area under irrigated cotton should be increased. Same policy should also be adopted for tur, in which by giving one or two protective irrigations after rainy season i.e. at flowering and at pod development stage increases yield from 7 q/ha to more than 25 q/ha.

Farmers of this area prefer wheat crop, which is comparatively a sensitive crop for water stress and short winters. In case of wheat about 550 mm of irrigation water is required to harvest maximum yield. There is drastic reduction in yield, if water supply is reduced. Hence, under scarcity situation it is suggested to take drought resistant crops like gram, sorghum, safflower which require less irrigation water and more area can be irrigated. The quantity of irrigation water, which is required for wheat, is sufficient to irrigate 2 to 2.5 ha of gram or sorghum and the total monetary return per unit of water is much higher in case of gram or rabi Jowar. Therefore there is a need to increase the irrigated area of rabi Jowar and gram, because yield response to irrigation water is good in both the crops.

4.6: INPUT MANAGEMENT: To harvest maximum crop yields, it is expected that the farmers should use all inputs (pure seed of high yielding or hybrid variety, manures, fertilizer, irrigation water, pesticides, weedicides, growth regulators etc) as recommended by the experts. It is also expected that the farmers should complete all operations such as preparatory tillage operations, seed bed preparations, sowing, intercultural tillage operations, spraying, dusting etc. at a right time. But

16 there are difficulties to the farmers. Irrigation facility is available only for 17% area. Remaining area is rain fed on which watershed development work is not completed up till now. In this situation farmers are not ready to take risk for more inputs. There is a need to create confidence among cultivators. Adequate and timely credit facilities needs to be created.

SEEDS: Use of pure seed of improved varieties is the basis of all agricultural improvement. “Reap as you sow” is a age old saying which is true in scientific farming also. No amount of advanced agricultural practices will boost up crop yield if the seed used is not of high quality. Good seed does not cost much but relatively it pays more. There are several varieties released in some of the crops like cotton maize but in some of the crops local varieties are used. Yield potentials are very low. More and continuous research is essential for increasing productively.

In crops like K. Jowar, Bajra, Maize, cotton the seed replacement rate is 100 per cent (Table 9) which can be considered as good sign of improvement but in case of Tur, Mung, Udid, Groundnut, soybean, R. Jowar, wheat, gram the seed replacement rate is very low. Rabi Jowar is grown on large area but the seed replacement rate is only 9 per cent. in such cases farmers are using local seeds without seed treatment which may or may not be of good quality seeds. There should be provision of seed testing in laboratory.

ORGANIC MANURES: Integrated approach for nutrient management is suggested by the scientist but it is observed that, most of the farmers are using only chemical fertilizers and they are not using organic inputs because of unavailability at local level. Organic manure is a complete food for the crops. All nutrients (including micro nutrients) are available in manure. Farmer should produce organic manure, comport, vermicompost at their site.

18 FERTILIZERS: Crop wise NPK consumption shows that in cotton, sugarcane, wheat and maize, the farmers of this district are using NPK up to 75% of recommended dose per hectare, even though the yield of wheat and sugarcane are not satisfactory when it is compared with expected yields. This is because farmers are not adopting the principles of integrated nutrient management.

It is also observed that they are not using balanced fertilizers. (Table no. 4.11) In case of Tur, Mung, Udid and Soybean nitrogen is used as

recommended dose but p2o5 is not used in sufficient quantity. In most of the cases, bio fertilizers are not used which is very essential to harvest higher yield.

All type of fertilizers (straight fertilizers, complex fertilizers, micro-nutrients, liquid fertilizers should be made available to the farmers. (Table 11) The requirement of micronutrient to the crop is comparatively low but it is equally important as major nutrients. Liquid fertilizers are more useful and efficient in drip and sprinkler irrigation systems.

CHEMICALS: Different type of pesticides, weedicides, growth regulators are required in crop production programme. Chemicals should be standard and of best quality. Pesticides are required to protect the crop. There should be provision of testing of chemicals in laboratory of Agro polyclinic.

LABOURS: Human labours and bullock labours are not available in adequate number. At many places it is observed that the farm operations like preparatory tillage, land layouts, sowing, intercultural operations, spraying, irrigation, harvesting etc. are not completed in time, which adversely affect the crop yield. Load shading of electricity has also become a serious problem. When labours are available for irrigation, during daytime, the electricity is not available and when electricity is available during night time, labours are not available.

Number of marginal farmers, small farmers are more in number. They can not afford to keep a bullock pair, they can not afford to buy a tractor, they are unable to complete the farm operations in time. In this situation is very essential to shift to mechanization hence a proposal is given separately.

4.7 FARM MECHANIZATION/FARM EQUIPMENTS

Farm operations are the most drudgery, difficult and laborious work in crop production programme. If appropriate type of implement/tool/machinery is available, the farm work can be completed in short time and the quality of work is also good. Because of comfort to agricultural workers, it improves efficiency and reduces labour cost. Farm mechanization increases profitability.

Women play a major role in crop production and post-harvest activities related to agriculture, horticulture dairy; poultry etc. Women are involved in large

23 number of agricultural operations including sowing, planting, weeding, hoeing, fertilizer application, spraying, dusting, harvesting, threshing, grading, processing etc. If women-friendly tools, implements machineries are available it improves efficiency of working.

In Beed district, availability of farm implements, machineries are studied and it is observed that farm implements/machineries are at lower level. Numbers of tractors, threshers, were studied. (Table 12). It shows that highest number of tractors (620) were in the area of Georai Tahsil, indicating 208 ha of cropped area per tractor whereas lowest number of tractors were in Ashti, Wadawani Taluka indicating 1381 ha of cropped area per tractor by considering the cropped area of different Tahsils Farm machinery status and projection is given in table no. 13.

The PRA team of ATMA and line department has discussed the issue of mechanization with farmers of Beed district and it is reported by the several farmers that there is shortage of farm labours. This is a serious problem. Therefore it is very essential to switch on to farm mechanization. Considering the requirement, it is proposed to have an organization at district place to

28 manufacture & repair different types of tools, implements, equipments, machineries etc. The organization may be Govt., co-operative or private but they should be involved in research, manufacture and sale of tools, implements, machineries required for crop production programme and post-harvest activities. More labours are required for transplanting of seedlings, planting of sugarcanes, harvesting of Jowar, Maize, Picking of cotton, harvesting of Wheat, safflower, grading of sweet orange etc. The use of equipment, machineries should reduce the labour requirement. The machineries required for post harvest activities may also be given more priority.

The Lead Bank and Land Development Bank should provide adequate investment credit, reasonable rate of interest, to the cultivators, for the purchase of tractors, electric pumps and other farm machinery, to improve their productivity. Taluka-wise projected investment credit for XII plan period is shown in table 33 and 34.

4.8 SPECIAL PROJECTS/PROGRAMMES ON-GOING IN THE DISTRICT: Reduced public investment in agriculture and allied sectors during last decade has resulted in decline in growth rate of agriculture. Therefore, there is an urgent need of enhancing investment in agriculture (both public and private) to augment productive capacity. As public extension system empowers farmers technologically and economically, it need be adequately backed by public finance.

Large numbers of schemes and projects sponsored both by the central and State Governments are implemented and operational in each district. There is need to network and co-ordinate these schemes/projects to empower farmers for enhancing agricultural productivity through resource use efficiency.

Major schemes implemented at district level are:

4.9: CONSTRAINT ANALYSIS: Yield gap analysis of major crops:

Average yield of different crops in Beed district, yield obtained in frontline demonstration and yield gaps are shown in Table 4, 5 Yield gaps are more (more

31 than 50 per cent) in Bajra, Wheat cotton and R.Jowar where as yield gaps are less (less than 50 per cent) in Kh. Jowar, Sugarcane and soybean. Taluka wise yield gaps of different crops are calculated and shown in Table 4.5. Yield gaps are more in the area of Ahti, Kaij Tahsils whereas yield gaps are comparatively less in the area of Shirur, Georai Tahsils. The yield gaps are mainly because of poor management. The reasons for yield gaps are shown in Table. 14.

36 4.9.2 EXTENSION & ADOPTION GAPS/LIMITATIONS: Though extension services are essential ingredients in agriculture and rural development, there is a wide gap between scientific know-how and field level do – how. According to NSSO, Govt. of India (2005) report, only 40% of the farmers in the country accessed one or the other source for getting information related to modern forming while 60% farmers are unaware of modern agriculture technology. Further, the farmers who received farming related information from one or the other source, only about 50% actually tried the information or adopted the recommended technology indicating huge technology transfer (Extension) and adoption gaps. This gap being largest in live stock and fisheries sub-sectors which are emerging as an important contributor to the total agriculture GDP.

The huge technology unawareness, technology transfer and adoption gaps may be ascribed to: 1) In appropriate and non-attractiveness of technology package 2) Farmers unawareness of new and modern technology due to low literacy rate 3) Non-availability of modern technology related quality inputs at right time, in right quantity and at right and affordable cost. 4) Deteriorating terms and inadequate infrastructure for trade agriculture produce and 5) Ineffective agriculture extension services.

LIMITATIONS OF PUBLIC EXTENSION SYSTEM: The size of existing extension service network in agriculture and allied sectors at district level is, by and large, satisfactory. Although the ATMA has been established for integration, co-ordination and convergence of extension efforts at the district, the perceived innovations in institutional reforms still face the implementation and operational linkage problems. Decentralization and participatory approach in extension delivery is a step in right direction. However the flow of appropriate technology, and value added information and combination of various supports services at right time and place to empower small and marginal formers for improving efficiency and viability of farming is in effective due to lack of sensitization, orientation and capacity building of field extension personnel of line departments and bottom level decision makers, The

37 evidences of impact of ATMA module of extension delivery on small and marginal holdings and other disadvantaged group of farmers and farm women, which constitute huge number and preeminent for food and social security of the rural communities, are hardly visible. The key limitations of district extension system are:

 Public extension services are widely viewed as supply driven rather than demand-driven.  There is more focus on input distribution and subsidy administration rather than core function of farmer’s empowerment through credible extension work.  Segmented approach in extension service delivery without considering farmers interests and priorities.  Public extension deals with a large area and population with diverse cropping pattern and extension services are general in nature.  Poor networking and weak co-ordination in district line departments.  In inadequate capacity building/skill up gradation of extension workers to provide demand-driven, specialized, location specific extension services.  Due to large vacant posts, deployment of extension workers to other supervisory work, and constraints on budgetary allocation, the public extension system is not able to effectively perform its extension services.  Weak and / or non-existence of research – extension – farmer – market linkages.

4.9.4 EXISTING INSTITUTIONAL MECHANISM IN THE GOVT.

Besides deficits in public investment, credit, infrastructure and market economy, the “knowledge deficit” is the primary cause for the “development deficit” in agriculture and rural economy. The gap between scientific know-how and the field level do-how has been widening in recent years. This knowledge deficit need to overcome speedily and effectively through efficient and accountable Agriculture extension machinery to enhance productivity, profitability and viability of farming, specially of small and marginal holdings.

38 EVOLUTION OF PUBLIC EXTENSION SYSTEM IN STATE Public Extension System has undergone several changes since early 1950. Beginning with Community Development (CD) programme in 1952 through the National Extension Service in 1953, the main focus was on human and community development. There has been a steady progression towards technology transfer, with IADP in 1961-62, IAAP in 1964-65, HYVP and FTEP in 1966-67, and SMFDP in 1969-70.

The most significant development was the introduction of the Training and Visit (T&V) extension management system in mid 1970’s. T&V extension system was well suited to rapid dissemination of broad based crop management practices and registered impressive gain in irrigated area. Indeed, the T&V system played an important role in ushering the Green Revolution. The various mechanisms evolved in T&V system were very successful in providing a two-way channel for dissemination of technology to farmers and the feed backs of the problems faced by the farmers to research system with better Research – Extension - Farmer (R-E-F) linkages.

However, the T & V system being “Top-down” in approach generated uniformity rather than specificity with low level of involvement of farmers. The capacity building of extension functionaries and farmers was not adequately addressed and mostly remained with centralized operations. During post-green revolution period, when the T&V extension approach was extended to rain fed farming, the system failed to respond to the more location specific, risk-prone situation in sustainable manner. The system did not meet with success, the needs of diversified agriculture in rain fed area. Further due to closure of the World – Bank support to T&V extension approach, the R-E-F Linkages considerably weakened.

The state Department of Agriculture was reorganized in 1998 on “one window” pattern with a view to deploy more of its technical manpower in the field for implementation of various agricultural development programmes and to provide agro-technical services to farmers through single village level worker

39 (VLW). This was a broad based extension model but lacked functional integration and the staff was equipped with traditional managerial skill of input supply, quality control with poor awareness about changing needs of farmers. This field staff is heavily burden with various schemes/protects and targets with very less emphasis on technology transfer and technology application in real-life field situation of farmers.

PRESENT EXTENSION SERVICES 1. GOVERNMENT SECTOR

The Department of Agriculture of the state is the nodal agency for insuring overall development and growth of agriculture. At the district level, the Department of Agriculture is headed by Superintendent Agriculture Officer (DSAO) assisted by Deputy Director of Agriculture (DDA), Sub-Divisional Agriculture Officers (SAO), Taluka Agriculture Officers (TAO), Circle/Mandal Agriculture Officer (CAO), Agriculture Supervisors (AS), and Agriculture Assistants/Village Level Worker (VLW). The main responsibilities of Agriculture Department are:

 Implementation of various central and state sponsored schemes.  Transfer of Technology and  Providing other technical services

Department of Agriculture assists in transferring the latest agriculture technologies developed by SAU, ICAR and other Research organizations to the farm families through farmer’s field school, village seed programme, field demonstrations, kisan melas, training of farmers, direct contact, literature and print and electronic media. The department has introduced Krishi Vigyan Mandals (KVM) and Self Help Groups (SHGs) for participatory extension services.

The district line Departments of the state Govt. such as Horticulture, Animal Husbandry, Dairy Development, Sericulture, Forestry, Fisheries etc are involved in providing extension services through supply of subsidized inputs and routine technical messages through seminar, workshops, demonstration, field visits,

40 exhibitions, etc. Besides they implement various central and state sponsored schemes of the respective departments.

Apart from Agriculture and other Line departments, the Zilla Parishad (ZP) also has the department of Agriculture headed by Agriculture Development Officer (ADO) assisted by supporting staff at District Parishad and taluka and village Panchayats. They are mainly engaged in input supply and distribution, and quality control besides Extension services.

Following State Govt. setup corporations are mainly responsible for production, supply and procurement of inputs along with products related extension services in the district. a) MAIDC Ltd. b) MSSC Ltd. and c) M.S. Seed certification Agency. Agriculture University Extension Services in the district covers. The organization of zonal Agri. Res and Extension Advisory committee meetings, monthly district workshops, Diagnostic team visits, joint field visits, demonstrations, trainings of extension personnel’s and farmers mainly through Krishi Viyan Kendra’s, ZRS/sub-stations and District Extension Agronomist with a team of subject matter specialists.

Krishi Vigyan Kendra’s (KVK) mandate is technology assessment and refinement through On Farm Testing (OFT) and Front Line Demonstrations (FLD) of improved technology /products and its dissemination through training of extension personnel’s and farmers, and vocational training of rural youths and farm women. The Programme Coordinator (PC) as the head of KVK plans and implements tailor-made extension programmes based on thrust areas of the district. The PC of the KVK is assisted by six Training Associates of major disciplines and three Training Assistants and supporting staff. The scientific Advisory Committee (SAC) of the KVK comprised of district heads of various line Departments, progressive farmers and KVK/SAU scientists meet twice in a year to review the progress of the work and discuss the future plan of work. The success of KVK largely depends on its strong linkages with line departments and contact farmers.

2. CORPORATE/PRIVATE/NGOS SECTOR Increasing restraints on Govt. finances and new arrangement in extension services, the corporate, private and large number of NGOs/ agencies are increasingly involved in providing technical and materialistic extension services in the district. The corporate houses, private wholesale dealers, retailers, traders are mainly involved in farm business through consultants and agri-business outlets. The major corporate players, which have already come up with their Agri-products are “e - chaupal” of ITC, Tina Oil meal, , “Aadhar” of Godrej Agro-vet, Shub Labh of Mahindra Group, Tata Krishi Seva Kendra of TATA Group etc. Most of these outlets are offering Agri-inputs at a single window and agricultural extension services related to their brand products. Some of the sugar mills in the district have also adopted the innovative method of agro-extension.

The farmer’s organizations (KVMs, SHGs) and NGOs largely dependent on Govt. grants/subsidies are also providing extension services in the district through participatory mode. The NGOs are mostly involved in promotion and credit linkages of SHGs, watershed development, organic farming, rain water harvesting, rural sanitation and health awareness etc. These private groups of extension agents are giving services free to nominal charges.

INNOVATIONS IN TECHNOLOGY DISSEMINATION: With a view to increase the quality of public extension system to face the challenges of 21st century, it was necessary to evolve new strategies for effectively disseminating newer technologies being evolved by the NARS. As reforms in the present public extension system, an Agriculture Technology Management Agency (ATMA) was established and pilot-tested in four districts of the state during 11th five year plan. The main aim of ATMA is to integrate the various stakeholders at district level associated and involved with agriculture development activities within district. Based on experiences gained through pilot testing, the ATMA module of Extension delivery has been adopted in all the district of the state in the 12th plan.

4.9. ANALYSIS OF VARIOUS CATEGORIES OF FARMERS INCOME

The total gross value added (GVA) at constant prices (2004-05) for Beed district was observed to be Rs. 149969.28 Lakhs (or about Rs. 1499.69 crores). Due to the implementation of the various projects / schemes / programmes in Beed district. During the XIth period the level of income or the gross value added. From 6 major sectors in projected to be Rs. 214320.85 Lakhs (or about Rs. 2143.20 crores). Indicating an annual compound growth rate (CGR) of 7.5%.

45

The distribution of this income among various categories of farmers in Beed district is presented in the following table.

(1) Average income per household (Year taken as per above) = Rs. (2) Average income per household (Year taken as per above) = Rs. (3) Compound Growth Rate = %

46 ALLOCATION OF INCOME: As data relating to category wise cost of production and gross incomes from agriculture and allied sectors are not available. We have allocated total gross value added on the basis of proportion of land operated by each category of farmers in Beed district. For example in 2012-13 period the total GVA of Beed district was Rs. 149969.28 Lakhs, while the land operated by the marginal farmers was only 19.79% total land operated. Hence the allocation of income to this categories of farmer would be 19.79% of total income or Rs. 29678.92 Lakhs but the total no. of cultivators as marginal farmers was 334989, hence the average income per cultivator is estimated at Rs. 8860 by adopting the same methodology we have allocated gross value added to other categories of farmers on the basis of proportion of land operated by which category farmers for both the period i.e. 2012-13 (initial years) and 2014-15 final years of the XII Plan. Following conclusions may be drawn from this table.

1. All categories of farmers have benefited from the income originating in agriculture and allied sector. During the XII Plan period in Beed district. i. e. marginal, small, semi medium, medium and large farmers.

2. Considering all farmers together the average income of house hold has increased form Rs. 23009 in 2012-13 to Rs. 32882 in 2014-15.

Limitation: It is assumed that the productivity of land and labour is equal among all categories of farmer. This is an important limitation of this analysis.

4.10 STRENGTHENING OF DISTRICT EXTENSION SYSTEM: ACTION PLAN AND COST:

Agriculture Technology Management Agency, (ATMA)-Retooling necessary With a view to overcome the limitations /constraints being posed over years by the present form of technology dissemination. Agriculture Technology management Agency (ATMA) has been established as a resisted society at district level to serve as a focal point for integration and coordination of research and extension activities within district. The Governing Board (GB) of ATMA

47 chaired by District collector is responsible for developing Linkages with key line Departments, Research organizations, NGO’s and key stakeholders associated and involved with sustainable agriculture development in the district. GB of ATMA reviews the progress and functioning of ATMA whereas Management Committee (MC) headed by project Directive is responsible for planning, implementation and review of day to day activities of extension services. The composition and key functions of GB and MC of ATMA are given in Annexure. The primary goal of ATMA is to develop an efficient and effective public extension system that is well integrated and demand driven so that the credibility and quality of technology dissemination for different farming system groups specially of resource poor and disadvantaged farmers is enhanced. The thrust areas of research and priorities of extension in the district be set out through Strategic Research and Extension Plan (SREP) of the district developed by participatory Rural Appraisal (PRA). The Programme implementation at Block /Taluka level and below is to be achieved through Farmer Information and Advisory Centre (FIAC) which acts a planning and operation arm at ATMA. The FIAC is supported by two groups viz, Block Technology Team (BTT) – a group of technical officers at block derived from different functional area and Farm Advisory Committee (FAC) – a body exclusively of farmers. BTT develops the Block Action Plan (BAP) in Light of SREP and responsible for its implementation while FAC plays a more proactive role in approving the BAP before they are referred to ATMA GB for final approval.

ATMA at district level and its various arms at block and village level need revamping and retooling through various process interventions. Viz: - Strategic Research and Extension Plan (SREP) - Decentralized decision making - Bottom up Planning - Public – private partnership - Convergence of services - Farmers groups as institution mechanism - Developing and managing institutional Linkages. There is an urgent need to revamp district. Extension system to improve the integration, coordination and linkages among district line departments, KVK,

48 SAU/2RS, private sectors/NGOs and farmers organization for effective planning and execution of district extension programme ATMA at district level has to play a key role in effective coordination and implementation of various extension programmes. ATMA must function as coordination, facilitators and control unit for programme planning, execution, release of funds for various activities and finally monitoring and review of the ongoing programmes. ATMA is not on scheme out of so many schemes at the d level but it is a modal Agency. Hence ATMA must be strengthened to take up the function as envisaged in the ITD concept during 11th plan period. It is proposed to allocate Rs. 400 lakh for strengthening ATMA as detailed stream - II Figure 4.1

4.11: PROJECTED OUTCOME AND GROWTH RATE DURING THE PLAN PERIOD PROPOSED GROWTH RATES:

In case of Kharif Jowar the productivity is increasing with growth rate of 8.06 (table -5), but the area is decreasing, as a result the growth rate of production is slowed down. Average yield in district when it is compared with average yield obtained in frontline demonstration, the yield gap is 48 percent. This indicates that there is a considerable scope to increase the productivity by improving the management practices. To reduce the risk, this crop should be grown in inter-cropping system. Considering the response of present varieties to manures, fertilizers, irrigation and other management practices, it is possible to improve the productivity with the minimum growth rate of 8 percent.

Bajra is drought resistant crop grown on medium to coarse textured shallow soils. Short duration high yielding varieties are available. If there is slight improvement in management practices, such as seed treatment, to maintain optimum plant population, integrated nutrient management, intercultural operation for insitu moisture conservation in scarcity situation, the yields are very high. The growth rate of last 5 years is 2.84 percent. Considering the present

60 varieties and future agricultural services the growth rate of productivity is proposed as to 7 percent per annum.

Maize is a heavy feeder. It gives good response to nutrient and irrigation. There is no much risk in crop production because there is no severe pest attack, hence area is increasing. Considering the situation growth rate is proposed as minimum of 8 percent per annum.

Cotton is most important cash crop of this area. Area under this crop is maximum. Now B.T. varieties are used for cultivation, hence there is no attack of boll worms. Productivity is increased with the growth rate of 4.77 percent in rain fed area and 4.09 percent in irrigated area. In future also the productivity will increase with about 10 percent because more useful information on plant density, nutrient management, irrigation and plant protection, based upon research experiments will be available to farmers.

Among pulses, tur, mung and udid are the major crops. Tur is a two seasonal crop having 170 days duration. This crop is sown in last week of June or First week of July. At the end of rainy season i.e. 90 to 100 days after sowing flowering starts in this crop. Because of low moisture in soil, there is shedding of flowers. It reduces the number of pods and finally the yield is low in rainfed situation. This crop responds very wells to improved crop management practices under irrigated condition. There is considerable scope for its improvement in productivity. Growth rate of last 5 years is 2.74 percent. Considering improvement in management practices and agricultural services the growth rate is proposed at a minimum 8.0 percent per annum. Mung, Udid these are short duration crops. Irrigation is not required in normal situation. There is scope to improve their productivity.

Soybean is important oilseed crop of this area. Productivity is also better. Yield gap is only -35 percent. The growth rate which is required to achieve the productivity, which is obtained in frontline demonstration, is 9.05 percent. There is a scope to improve the productivity of soybean. The productivity can be more

61 than the productivity obtained in frontline demonstration. Hence, minimum growth rate is proposed as 4 percent.

In rabi season, the major crops are Jowar, Wheat and Gram. Rabi Jowar is grown on stored soil moisture. The stored moisture is only about 30 to 45 percent of total water requirement of Jowar and hence the yield is low. This can be improved by irrigation, nutrient management and timely intercultural operations. Growth rate of last 5 years is only 1.11 percent. The area under rabi Jowar is more. If there is slight improvement in management there can be considerable increase in yield. The irrigated area of Jowar will increase in future. Hence, the growth rate of rabi Jowar is proposed as 9.0 percent. Situation of gram is also same as rabi Jowar. Productivity is high under irrigated condition. In addition to this, high yielding varieties of gram are released recently. These varieties under irrigated conditions will help in improving productivity. Hence, growth rate is proposed as 6 to 7 percent for gram. Wheat is important crop in irrigated area. Farmers are also giving priority to wheat if irrigation water is available. Growth rate of last 9 years is only 1.38%. This might be due to inadequate irrigation water. Several time it is observed that there is no sever pest in case of wheat, which reduces the risk in cultivation and if irrigation water is available in adequate quantity, the productivity is higher. In future, it is possible to increase irrigated area and hence growth rate is proposed as 5 to 6 percent.

TABLE NO. 24 PROPOSED GROWTH RATES OF PRODUCTIVITY

Sr. Growth Rates of Crops No. Productivity 1 Kh. Jowar 7.87 2 Bajra 6.48 3 Kh. Maize 8.56 4 Tur 8.20 5 Kh. Sunflower 4.93 6 Soybean 4.01

Sugarcane is important irrigated crop. Maximum amount of irrigation water is used to this crop. Area under this crop is about 29000 ha in Beed District and average yield is only 60 ton/ha. Average yield of this crop was 110 ton in 1960- 61, which has decreased because farmers are not adopting the concept of integrated nutrient management, improved irrigation management and soil health including self management, productivity is low. This can be improved, hence growth rate is proposed as 10 percent.

CROP DIVERSIFICATION PLAN AND PROJECTED OUTCOME: In Beed District, the total cropped area is 1038900 ha, out of which about 336800 (33%) ha area is under cereal crops. Among cereals, Kh. Jowar, Bajra, Maize, Rabi Jowar and Wheat are the major crops. Kharif Jowar is an important crop but it is not much economically profitable. This crop faces problems like, in the event of late sowing (after 1st July) the crop is severely affected by shoot fly, steam borer, which becomes very difficult to control. This crop also suffers, because of grain mould due to September rains, causing deterioration in quality and hence fetches low price, due to such constraint the area under sorghum is reduced and shifted to Maize, Tur, Soybean.

Bajra is predominant Kharif crop of this area. Area under this crop is 99600 ha under scarcity situation, the productivity is higher, this crop can be grown on coarse textured slrallow soils, but this crop is also not much profitable to the farmers. Hence, it is proposed to shift some area of Bajra, to Maize, Tur and Soybean.

63 Maize is an important cereal crop. Farmers are giving preference to this crop because there is no much risk of pest attack, high yielding varieties are available and yield potential is very high. This crop can help for achieving higher growth rate in cereals. It is a heavy fedder of nutrients; hence an appropriate Land Management with integrated nutrient practice is necessary for sustainable growth rate. At present, the area under Maize is 10300 ha. It is proposed to increase the area by reducing the area of Kharif Jowar and Bajra.

Rabi Jowar is most important cereal crop of the district, which meets the requirement of both grain and fodder. The area under this crop is 165200 ha even a small increase in productivity can lead to significant rise in production. At present productivity of this crop is low because of mostly rain fed area. Rabi Jowar is grown on residual moisture. Local varieties are used. Seed replacement rate is very low and farmers are not adopting improved agricultural technology. There is scope to improve the productivity of this crop by enhancing the area under irrigation, use of improved varieties and by increasing the seed replacement rate and by adopting insitu moisture conservation technologies on large area. Wheat is grown on 26200 ha with a productivity of 991 kg/ha. The climate is not ideal for growing wheat in this district, but there is low risk of pest as compared to other crops and therefore farmers are giving preference to this crop, hence there is no need to reduce the area but need to improve the productivity by seed replacement, fertilizer management and proper irrigation management.

Tur is important pulse crop and it is also suited to this rainfall pattern. Area under this crop is 43100 ha with the productivity of 519 kg/ha. The major constraints in increasing the productivity is rain fed area, use of local varieties, low seed replacement rate. There is scope to increase the productivity by providing. Protective irrigation, using high yielding varieties and by adopting improved agricultural practice. This crop may help to improve the growth rate.

Soybean is potential crop emerging as a star oilseed in this district. Area under soybean is 102400 ha with productivity of 1459 kg/ha. Area and

64 productivity is increasing. There is scope to increase the productivity. This crop can help to maintain good soil fertility and hence it is proposed to increase the area by reducing the area of Kh. Jowar and Bajra. It is also suggested to increase the area under other oil seed crop like, groundnut, sunflower, safflower etc.

Cotton is most important cash crop of the district. Area under this crop is increasing. At present, area is 369400 ha with the productivity of 196 kg lint/ha. The productivity is very low because more than 94.5 percent area is rain fed. Very good varieties are available now, if cotton is grown under protective irrigation and ideal management, the yield potential is very high (35-40 q/ha). It is also observed that crop rotation is not followed, which increase the incidence of insect and diseases. It is also essential to adopt the principles of integrated nutrient management for optimum yield, in rain fed as well as irrigated condition. Now, it is proposed to increase the yield by increasing area under protective irrigation and by adopting improved agricultural practices.

Sugarcane is cash crop of prime importance. At present area under sugarcane is 38900 ha with average yield of 66 t/ha. The area under sugarcane in this district undergoes cyclical changes. It increases with availability of water, but when production increases, farmer faces the problem of marketing and they get low prices. Most of the farmers always prefer to take sugarcane when irrigation water becomes available. But, it is highly essential to explain them to take fruit crops, vegetables, spices medicinal plants. Under scarcity area crops, which are giving more monetary return per unit of water that should be preferred. Sugarcane requires more amount of irrigation water. Improper management leads to water logging and soil salinity. Duration of this crop is also more. In comparison with sugarcane the vegetable crops like chillies, onion, tomato and potato can give more monetary return per unit or water. Hence, it is proposed to reduce the area of sugarcane or if it is not possible keep the area static and increase the productivity of sugarcane. There is a scope to increase the productivity upto potential yield of 300 ton/ha. Productivity can be increased

65 by using high yielding varieties, improved planting method, adopting INM, using drip irrigation method and other improved agricultural technologies.

Considering the above concepts area proposed in Table 25. Gross value added from various crop at current prices and growth rates are calculated (26, 27).

68 CHAPTER V ALLIED AGRICULTURE SECTOR

5.1 INTRODUCTION : C-DAP of the district is aimed at enhancing the growth rate of Agriculture. Along with it other allied activities like, Sericulture, Horticulture, Animal Husbandry Fisheries, Watershed development, Agro-based rural development, Food processing units, Development of Rural Industries, Agricultural Marketing and Agricultural credit have also-been included in the Project Report.

Critical Analysis of the available data/statistics and information was made to formulate the strategies and recommendations for enhancing the growth rate of Agriculture as well as of allied activities. Thus, by increasing the growth rate of allied activities to minimum level of 6 percent per annum, it is expected that the overall growth of Agriculture and Allied Activities together will help in achieving CGR to 4 percent during the 11th plan period.

TH 5.2 DEVELOPMENT OF HORTICULTURE IN BEED DISTRICT DURING 12 FIVE YEAR PLAN: INTRODUCTION: In Beed district of Maharashtra state different tropical and subtropical fruits and vegetable crops are grown in all the talukas. With the introduction of the scheme of horticultural development through EGS, the plantation programme of fruit trees was enhanced in the district. The Horticulture mission has geared up the horticultural development in the district. During 12th plan the expansion plan of fruits and vegetables has been proposed and on implementation of this plan the production of fruits and vegetables will increase to a considerable extend.

DEVELOPMENT OF IRRIGATED FRUIT CROPS : In Beed district more than 80 per cent area is rainfed and the area under irrigation has increased after the completion of irrigation projects. Sweet orange, guava, mango, pomegranate, papaya are important fruit crops which are grown under irrigated conditions. Banana, fig and grapes are taken in few pockets in the district. Kagzi lime is also taken as irrigated crop. In vegetables onion, chilli, tomato

1 are the main crops. During 12th plan the expansion of the area has been proposed with the growth rate of 10 to 15 per cent. With the increase in area under irrigated fruit crops, the production will also increase at the growth rate of 15 to 20 per cent. The additional production of the fruits gardens will result in increased gross values of fruit gardens and the farmers will be benefited. For the expansion of area of irrigated fruit crops additional amount will be required which will be made available through the scheme of development of Horticulture through EGS and Horticulture mission. The additional production of fruits should also get the market in the state and outside the state. Even there is scope for export of fruits like kesar mango and grape to Western countries. Eastern parts of Beed district, particularly Georai, Majalgaon, Wadvani and Parli talukas have medium to heavy soils and good irrigation facilities. The irrigated fruit crops can be grown in these talukas and there is good scope for area expansion in Eastern parts of the district. As continuous growth in horticulture and vegetable plantation, recommendation of pack house and onion storage structures are included in 12th plan. A separate proposal under RKVY is given with this.

DEVELOPMENT OF NURSERY ACTIVITIES: In Beed district in all 9 nurseries are engaged in the job of production of planting material. The demands for the planting material will increase and in order to meet out the increased demands of the farmers it would be essential to strengthen the existing nurseries. The nurseries should be provided the funds from the proposed proposal for increasing irrigation facilities, raising of net houses and poly houses, electricity supply, equipments and other inputs so that the nurseries should be able to fulfill the requirements of the farmers. The funding to State Government owned nurseries and Agril. University owned nurseries will be made as per the requirements of the nurseries. For the private nurseries the loans can be given on repayment basis from the receipts of planting material supplied to Govt. agencies.

DEVELOPMENT OF VEGETABLE CROP : In Beed district different vegetables like brinjal, chilli, onion, tomato, cabbage, cauliflower etc are grown in all the seasons of the year. In 12th plan the area under vegetables can expanded twice if irrigation facilities are available. In the area expansion plan for the vegetables the growth rates of about 5 per cent are expected during the 12th plan. With the increase in area under vegetables, the production of vegetable is bound to increase. For the increased production of vegetables a well

2 organized market system will have to develop. The vegetables like onion and potato can be stored for longer period and therefore, can be transported to distant markets. Therefore, there is considerable scope to increase the area under onion and potato.

DEVELOPMENT OF SPICE CROPS: In Beed district the spice crops like chilli, onion, garlic, coriander, turmeric and ginger are grown in all the talukas of the district. The area expansion plan of these spice crops has been prepared and on an average the area expansion is expected at the compounded growth rate of 9.88%. There is good scope for the area expansion of spice crops in Beed district and therefore a separate proposal has been prepared for encouraging the production of spice crops in Beed district.

VEGETABLE SEED PRODUCTION: The vegetable seed production is very important aspect in the commercial production of vegetable crops. As the farmers find difficulties in procuring good quality vegetable seeds, it is essential to undertake the seed production of vegetables. The progressive farmers and seed companies should come forward for this job.

DEVELOPMENT OF FLOWER PRODUCTION: In Beed district the flower crops like marigold, gaillardia, rose, chrysanthemum, Jasmine, tube rose etc are taken on small scale. The area under these flower crops can be expanded during 12th plan and in area expansion plan it is proposed to expand the area at the rate of 5to 10 per cent of growth rate.

HIGH TECH CULTIVATION: The importance of high tech cultivation of flower crops and vegetable crops has been increased during recent past. In Beed district also there is scope to undertake the high tech cultivation of flower crops. The farmers from all the talukas of Beed district should come forward to undertake the high tech culture. Such farmers will be trained at the initial stage and then the trained farmers will be supplied all the required help in the form of material and finance to undertake the high tech cultivation of flower crops like gerbera, aster, carnation, rose etc. Such flowers produced by high tech cultivation will be suitable for export in western countries. By

3 export of flowers the farmers will get higher prices and will get higher monitory returns.

POST HARVEST HANDLING, MARKETING AND EXPORT: Fruits, vegetables and flower are perishable in nature and therefore, there is need to train the farmers for proper handling of them after harvesting. The refrigerated vans for transport can reduce the post harvest losses during transit. Similarly the pre cooling treatment and cold storages can reduce the losses during storage of produce. For the export of grapes such facilities are required. In Beed district kesar variety of mango is grown on a sizeable area and from the total production of fruits of kesar mango, the export quality fruits can be graded and packed suitably for export. Thus there is considerable scope for export of kesar mango from Beed district. A separate proposal for export of fruits and Vegetables from Beed district has been prepared.. The export will be highly remunerative to the farmers of Beed district for increasing their monitory returns. Besides mango, the grape few vegetables and flowers should also be considered for export from Beed district.

XII PLAN OUTLAY: Table shows the XII plan outlay for Horticulture under stream I (Infrastructure & Allied) Rs. 495 lakh and stream II (Production Growth) Rs. 14598 lakhs. Thus total outlay of Rs. 15093 lakhs.

Justification for Activities to be implemented in the District

1. Integrated cotton development program: It is aimed at increasing cotton under rain-fed conditions, to maintain soil fertility and soil health. The package will include the technologies that would decrease the cost of cultivation which will add to net profit. 2. Agril. Mechanization: The trainings about introduction, importance, use and maintenance of various small tools and implements are conducted by KVK on regular basis. The KVK can train those groups who are provided with agriculture implements by state department. It can also take up empowering those groups for efficient use of implements. The KVK propose to establish one agril. Implement repair workshop. 3. National Food security Mission: 4. Soil health mission and soil survey, soil testing: The KVK has a well equipped soil testing laboratory which analyses 4000 to 5000 samples per year. Soil health cards are distributed to farmers. The soil fertility index of village is prepared and displayed in 22 villages. 5. CropSAP: 6. Group and collective farming: The KVK has formed 15 rural farmers and farm women SHGs who are engaged in agriculture produce processing. 7. Skill development program: The various agriculture and allied enterprises which have commercial scope and self employment avenues needs skilled workers/ farmers. The income generating skill development programs are major source of sustainable additional income. 8. Sugarcane Development Program (RKVY): The district has an area of 37550 ha of sugarcane with yield average of 22 tons/ha. The low yields can be attributed to various factors. The sugarcane development program would demonstrate those anomalies like soil selection, spacing, fertilizer management, irrigation and mechanization. 9. Agriculture extension Janjagrati Campaign: The mass awareness program for dissemination of improved agriculture technologies can be held through Janjagruti campaigns. 10. Integrated Watershed management program: 11. Establishment of Silage Making Unit: The district has major forage shortage due to drought conditions which adversely affects livestock production. The quality of available fodder is also very low. The scarcity is severe during summer season. The silage making is a process where in the available forage in Kharif & Rabi season can be stored after treatment to make it available during forage shortage period. 12. Establishment of Hydroponics fodder production unit: The production of highly nutritious forage grass under controlled conditions gives green fodder through year. It involves optimize use of available water and land. It supports support loose housing farm. It also increases productivity of livestock. 13. Establishment of Azolla production unit: The production Azolla as feed supplement increases productivity of dairy animals and reduces expenditure on feeding. Azolla production is cost effective and the technique is farmers friendly. 14. Bio dynamic units: KVK has trained personnel in bio dynamic agriculture. We have implemented organic farming scheme. This is our most valued aim at institute level. The end to end organic farming concept is being implemented in five villages.

39 15. Integrated Farming System: Under present difficult situation, agriculture needs to have holistic approach wherein the concept of IFS had to be followed. This would provide certain amount of stability to farmer income as compared to mono crop system. The IFS has to demonstrate on different situations, agro-climatic conditions and social strata. The model demonstrations in all blocks of the district involving diverse clientele should be conducted. At least 50 such farmers from the district would be selected for IFS demonstrations. The IFS would involve major systems involving agriculture, animal husbandry and other location specific enterprises that would provide sustainable income for the farmers. The 1.5 acre and 2.5 acre models under rainfed and irrigated conditions need to be evaluated. 16. Information, education and communication: The animal husbandry section of KVK provides information about location specific technologies that will be adopted by the farmers in the district. Preparation of balanced ration from locally available resources, income generating livestock activities like poultry rearing, goat rearing dairy, advanced technologies like loose housing, hydroponics, Azolla as feed supplement are other areas which needs to be disseminated on large scale amongst farmers. 17. HRD in horticulture: The horticulture in the district is being introduced with different advanced technologies and new crops like shed net vegetable cultivation, poly house development ,floriculture, pomegranate cultivation, plastic culture. The concepts being new to the farmers, they need to be trained in use of these advanced technologies. The horticulture section of KVK can undertake this task. The refreshers course for departmental workers will also strengthen the human resource. 18. Well recharging: There is large number of wells provided by state department to the farmers. The KVK can provide technical knowhow about recharging to the farmers to make those wells functional for longer duration. The KVK has also developed the model of roof water and rain water harvesting at kvk farm to increase the water level. 19. Seed treatment campaign: The each year KVK has been conducting seed treatment campaign in selected 10 to 15 villages in both Kharif and Rabi season to eradicate the problem of seed and soil born disease in sorghum because sorghum is main staple food crop for rural people and also increasing the productivity level 15-20 percent. 20. Seed production in seed village: The KVK under its mandatory work has introduced many improved varieties of different crops and developed seed village concept for some of them like soybean, wheat, redgram, green gram, bengalgram and onion. 21. Building community groups and farmers organization: This is mandatory work of Krishi Vigyan Kendra.KVK is knowledge and resource center of the district where all the subject SMS are available. It has well qualified and trained extension workers who are in constant touch with farmers. The KVK has already formed 25 community FIG (Farmers interest groups) for different commodities viz sericulture-3, Pomegranate 3, Spices-2, Poultry rearing 5, Value addition in Aonla candy-2, Soya Papad-3, off seasonal vegetable and flowericulture-3, Goatry-2, Dairy loose housing system-2 etc. 22. Increasing women participation: KVK has one home scientist who is well experienced in conducting skill development long durational vocational trainings for processing of fruits and vegetable, cereals sorghum rawa, dal making and various type of demonstrations viz: drudgery reduction technology in agricultural activities, health and nutrition, Nutritional kitchen gardening, reducing anemia levels and income generating activities for rural farm women. The areas of interest are value addition to different agriculture produce.

40 23. Group and collective farming: The modern day agriculture stresses more on group farming for to reduce cost of cultivation and facilitate group marketing for high end crops like vegetables, fruits and value added products.

5.3 COMPREHENSIVE DISTRICT AGRICULTURAL PLAN (SERICULTURE) BEED DISTRICT:

Sericulture development, particularly mulberry area and silkworm cocoon production started from 2002 in the district. After 2006 the area and production increased substantially. At the end of 2014-15 (March 15) Beed district was first in area and production in Marathwada region. The data on mulberry plantation, DFLS consumed and cocoon production of Beed district since 2002 have been incorporated in Table

Mulberry plantation And Cocoon Production in District Sr. Year No. of Plantation Supply of Production Cocoon Production No. farmers Area in ha Silkworm of cocoons production for involved Eggs MT kg/ha 100 cocoons in Kg. 2012- 1 13 232 153.2 125519 74.454 485 52

Mulberry was grown on an area of 298.8 ha (747 acres) and there were 506 farmers engaged in sericulture. On an average each farmer had 1.48 acres or 0.59 ha of area under mulberry in the district. A total of 500 farmers were trained in mulberry cultivation and silkworm rearing.

Nagapur (B), a village situated 10 km east of Beed city has been declared as one of the best villages “Sericultural Village Award” by the Sericultural Department, Govt. of Maharashtra, in 2007. This village has 42 ha (105 acres) under mulberry cultivation. There were about 150 farmers undertaking Sericultural activity in the village. One of the progressive farmer Shri. Lakul Kadam has been awarded “Sericultural Shri Award” by the Govt. for producing very high productivity of silk cocoons.

The office of Silk Development Officer in Beed District has no land or Training facility.

DISEASE FREE LAYING CONSUMPTION (DFLS CONSUMPTION): It is observed that a total of 272150 DFLS were consumed on a total area of old plantation of 298.8 ha. On an average 1015.50 DFLS were consumed per hectare. The average consumption of DFLS per hectare for Marathwada Region was 952.67 DFLS. The recommended and potential consumption is 2000 DFLS (i.e. 400 DFLS each for 5 crops) per hectare per year. The average consumption of DFLS of Beed District was slightly higher than the average consumption of Marathwada Region. However, it is clear that DFLS consumption per ha in Beed District was low when compared to the potential consumption affecting the productivity of silkworm cocoons in Beed District.

SILKWORM BREEDS:

48 It is necessary to increase the area of mulberry silkworm rearing under bivoltine hybrids so as to increase the production and productivity besides meeting the international demand of standard quality row silk yarm.

1. COCOON PRODUCTION: It is observed from table no. that a total of 163725 kg of silkworm cocoons with a total value of Rs. 49847909/- (Rs. 4.98 crores) were produced in Beed District. Thus, Beed District had the distinction of largest producer of silkworm cocoons and first district as regards area of mulberry cultivation in Marathwada Region. The potential and recommended productivity is 1000 kg of cocoons per year from 1 ha of mulberry cultivation. It is clear from the above figures that the average productivity of cocoons of Beed District is low as compared to the potential yields. There are wide gaps in the actual productivity of the District and the potential yields.

2. CONSTRAINS FOR LOW PRODUCTIVITY:

The average productivity of cocoons per ha, per year of Beed District was 610.9 kg / ha, which was low when compared to potential yield of 1000 kg / ha. The constraints for the same are as under:-

1. Low consumption of DFLs by the Farmers. 2. Lack of Training facilities with the District silk office. 3. Inadequate utilization of mulberry leaves. 4. Inadequate Technical Staff with District Silk Office. 5. Bivoltine CSR hybrids are not reared on large mulberry gardens 6. Very few Chawki rearing centre facilities. 7. No private cocoon reelers and private cocoon market in the District. 8. Delayed payment to the farmers, against the purchase of cocoons by the Sericultural Department. 9. Low adoption of improved and recommended technologies of mulberry cultivation and silkworm rearing of high quality by the Farmers.

3. STRATEGIES AND NEW SCHEMES PROPOSED FOR SERICULTURAL DEVELOPMENT TH DURING XII PLAN PERIOD:

49

INCREASING THE AREA UNDER MULBERRY CULTIVATION: During 2014-15, the area under Mulberry Cultivation in Beed District was 268 ha, which is now proposed to double this area say up to 500 ha during the XIIth five years plan.

INCREASING MULBERRY AREA UNDER BIVOLTINE CSR HYBRIDS: As mentioned earlier to meet the deficit of saw silk yarn in the State and Marathwada Region, it is necessary to increase the quality of silk production and productivity, which is possible only through increasing the area under bivoltine CSR silk breed. It is necessary for the Sericultural Department Staff to do lot of extension work improved technologies of bivoltine hybrids and to provide facilities as to reach large number of farmers in Beed District to produce more and more bivoltine hybrids. The cocoons of bivoltine hybrids fetch high price as well as incentive from the Department.

TIMELY SUPPLY OF INPUTS AND PROMPT PAYMENTS AGAINST COCOON PURCHASES: Prompt supply of inputs and payments against silkworm cocoons purchased by the Department of Sericulture from farmers are very necessary in the interest of Development of sericulture in District.

If above mentioned constraints are taken care of and suggestions and strategies are properly implemented the productivity and production of silk cocoon and yarn would be doubled and we would be taking one step forward to achieve our vision of self sufficiency and export of silk yarn.

5.4 ANIMAL HUSBANDRY: COMPREHENSIVE AGRICULTURE DEVELOPMENT PLAN BEED DISTRICT : LIVESTOCK

INTRODUCTION: Animal Husbandry sector contributes significantly to agricultural GDP. It has immense potential for employment and income generation and has shown steady progress over the years. There are 11 talukas in the district. These are Beed, Georai, Majalgaon, Ambejogai, Kaij, Patoda, Ashti, Dharur, Parli Vaijanath, Shrirur and Wadhwani.

PRESENT SCENARIO:

51 The livestock resources of the Beed district are of the order of ten Lakh cattle units, comprising of cattle, buffaloes, sheep, goats, pigs and poultry etc. Taking into consideration, the moderate price of Rs. 40,000/- per cattle unit, the livestock resources of Beed district amount to the order of Rs. 4000 crores as a fixed asset. This generates the products like milk, work (draft), meat, eggs, wool, skins/hides and organic manure.

Details of livestock population and Veterinary Institutes in the district are indicated in the appended tables (No. ---).

CATTLE AND BUFFALOES: State Breeding Policy for cattle aims at increased productivity of cows by genetic improvement. However, it also aims at conservation of native breeds and ensuring adequate supply of quality bullocks for animal draft power in rural areas. For achieving genetic up-gradation, three-pronged strategy is to be adopted. a) Cross-Breeding program for Non-Descript Deshi by using frozen semen of Jersey and H.F. exotic breed bulls. b) Natural services by true to type bulls of selected native breeds in such areas as tribal, hilly and non accessible areas. c) For genetic improvement in buffaloes frozen semen from recognized breeds of buffalo bulls like Surti and Murrah will be used.

BREEDING – (ARTIFICIAL INSEMINATION) There is one district A.I. Centre at Beed, which caters to the need of 11 talukas by supplying LN2, frozen semen straws and other required A.I. accessories. For providing these facilities in the entire district, the Department of Animal Husbandry hires a private vehicle on yearly rate contract basis. As per the laid down, breeding policy of the state, HF, Jersey and Deoni bull frozen Semen straws are supplied to the district from main frozen semen centre located at . Buffalo breeding is also taken care of by providing frozen semen straws of Murrah and Surti buffalo bulls.

52 For hilly tract areas of the district, where infrastructure facilities are not available, necessary arrangements to provide natural services have been provided by posting breeding bulls in those isolated areas.

The A.I. work is mainly undertaken by the Govt. and Z.P. Veterinary institutes in the district. Apart from this cooperative societies and private agencies are also providing A.I. services to some extent. Details of number of A.I. carried out and numbers of calves born in the district are provided in the appended table.

It is observed that only 20 per cent of cows and 16 per cent of buffaloes are getting breeding coverage through A.I. activities in the district. Details of all Veterinary institutes are provided in the appended table. On scanning the available information, data and statistics etc. it is observed that i) Coverage by A.I. in respect of Deshi cows is upto 10 per cent and for cross-breed cows it works out to be 30.6 per cent. Coverage in buffaloes is 16.4 per cent. ii) Technical man power is inadequate. As per the laid down policy there should be one Veterinarian for 5000 cattle units. (Present available ratio is 1:10,000 cattle units). iii) Mobility of the staff available is very much restricted for want of vehicles or conveyance allowance. iv) As per the Govt. breeding policy, HF frozen semen straws are being used for A.I. in irrigation area, while Jersey bull semen straws are used for other parts of the district. v) Frozen semen straws of Surti and Murrah buffalo bulls are being used for upgradation of local buffaloes. vi) LN2 is being supplied from district head-quarter to different institutes. Only one vehicle is available on rate contract basis for this job. vii) Another important constraint is that of shortage of electricity supply (load shedding) which is getting further aggrevated by non supply of LPG or even kerosin oil. This hampers the important activities like thawing of frozen semen straws and sterilization of instruments etc. viii) Extension activities in the district are very poor; there is communication gap between farmer-breeders and the Veterinary institutes. This affects in

53 presenting the animals and arranging timely A.I. services and thus results in lower conception rate.

To overcome the situation following strategies are suggested:-

(A) DOOR STEP DELIVERY OF BREEDING SERVICES: Breeding Services through A.I. program has reached to only about 9 percent in Non-Descript and some 30 percent of eligible cross-bred cattle in the district. Its average success rate is also very low. In buffaloes, it is yet to be acceptable to buffalo keepers due to silent heat in this species. For increase in success rate of A-I services and also for covering sizable number of population, it is necessary to have timely delivery of services. Therefore door step delivery of this service is the right strategy.

Unemployed Veterinary graduates and Diploma holders will be engaged (as Pashudhan Sevaks) on contract basis. In Beed District such 90 Pashudhan Sevakas will be required. Those along with the available manpower will be reaching to maximum number of eligible cows / buffalo population for doing timely A.I. work. To overcome non-availability of electricity, LPG supply must be at all Institutes. This will result not only in better conception rate, but will help in increased number of calves born. In turn this will help to increased growth rate of milk production. Mobile van at district head quarter for supply of LN2 frozen semen straws and vaccines etc. is a must. Budget required is shown separately in the Financial Outlay of the Project.

(B) SCIENTIFIC REARING OF CALVES:

Level of scientific rearing of calf is poor among milch animal keepers. As a result there is delayed maturity in heifers and the benefit of genetic program is not available to its fullest potential, resulting into lower growth rate of milk production than is possible.

Cross-breed genetically improved calves born and genetically up-graded buffalo heifers will be the target group. For selecting calves of 1 to 2 years age group, the growth attained shall be the criterion taking Tahsil as unit. Provision of

54 Rs. 20/- per calf per day will be made. It is expected that this will help the owners to understand the importance of scientific calf rearing and as a result; 40 to 50 percent calf born from A-I program will grow into cows within some 3 years time and thus will help to increase the growth rate of milk production.

(C) SCIENTIFIC TACKLING OF INFERTILITY IN DAIRY ANIMALS:

A very large no. of cows and buffaloes from breedable age group ware found suffering from infertility problems and had not calved even ones. The incidence of infertility problem is high is cross bred animal also. Scientific approach is essential for better diagnosis and effective treatment of infertility cases. Regular Gynacco-clinical examination of problem cases, monitoring of oestrus and oestrus cycles, testing of blood samples for assessing deficiencies and testing for hormonal assey etc. will help in bringing such animals into production. In certain cases Ultra – Sonography will also be required.

Cross bred infertile cows and high yielding problematic buffaloes will be selected for necessary treatment. For this infertility register maintained at Veterinary Polyclinics, dispensaries and A.L. Centers will be referred to. Necessary budget provision (Rs. 1000 per cow or buffalo) will be made. For Beed district it amounts to Rs. Ten Lakh per annum, and the same is indicated in appended financial outlay of the project.

Ensuring quality of A.I. Services: i. Close monitoring of A.I., Services provided by inseminators.

ii. Inseminator must register himself.

iii. There should be certain minimum specified standards for storage and distribution of semen, LN2 and record of sources of semen used.

iv. Knowledge updating in respect of advance A.I. technology by arranging/ compulsory Refresher Training Course for All A.I. workers.

55 v. A.I. Services cards should be made compulsory.

vi. All the above mentioned multi pronged, planned strategy will help in increasing, the number. of calves born. Thus large number. of heifers born will subsequently turn into milch animals.This will result in boosting up the milk production growth rate up to 6 per cent in the plan period.

For increasing A.I. among deshi cows it will be better to have integrated area u for insemination and allied activities by selected clustered villages, so that intense close technical watch can be provided through expertise personnel.

New projects included in this scenario are given below-

1. Establishment Of Gokul Grams under Rashtriy Gokul Mission: Establishment Of Gokul Grams under Rashtriy Gokul Mission for maintenance of non productive Cows and buffaloes. 2. Establishment of Mobile Extension Centers for publicity of govt. schemes & creation of awareness among farmers at District level. This is for Information, Education, communication and use of technology transfer to rural farmer. 3. Supply of Mini Setter & Hatchers of 5000 eggs capacity: This project included for promotion of DOC production of deshi and improved birds at farmers doorstep, get employment and income source. 4. Mobile marketing units for poultry meat and eggs, subsidy ceiling Rs.3.75 Lakh per unit: This project is included for promotion of clean meat. 5. Mobile marketing units for poultry meat and eggs, subsidy ceiling Rs.3.75 Lakh per unit: This project is for Marketing of live birds/ goats etc. 6. Supply of Veterinary Mobile Units cum Diagnostic Laboratories: Veterinary health services like treatment of ailing animals, operations & surgical interventions, Pregnancy Diagnosis, Infertility treatment, Artificial Insemination, Vaccinations etc. are being provided to the livestock in Maharashtra State

57 through District Veterinary Polyclinics, Taluka Mini Veterinary Polyclinics and Veterinary Dispensaries Gr-1 and Grade-2 in Local and State sector. The farmers who could not bring animals to these veterinary centres are provided veterinary health services through Mobile Veterinary units. The facility of door step veterinary health services is being provided to the farmers through 65 Mobile Veterinary Units which are operated through the normal Jeep or other vehicles of this category. These Mobile Veterinary Units doesn’t have laboratory facility for the spot diagnosis of the diseased animals. Ailing animals when undergoes in recumbency stage, it is very difficult to bring such animals in veterinary dispensary for its treatment. According to data of 18th Livestock Census 2007, the livestock in the Beed was large animals 9, 25,381 and sheep- goat population 4, 79,896. In district Beed total number of villages is 1406 where farmers are largely dependent on their animals for the activities which contribute to their food basket & household income for those who daily earn by the sweat of one's brow. It also plays a significant role in generating gainful employment in the rural areas, particularly among the landless, small and marginal farmers and women, besides providing cheap and nutritious food. Livestock are the best insurance for farmers against unpredictable conditions of nature like drought and other natural calamities. The State is providing veterinary health coverage for every 9th village and for every 7400th unit of animal. Laboratory diagnosis is an important part of any surveillance or disease control programme. There is a need to provide efficient and timely Veterinary Health Services to the Livestock and Poultry for the animal which could not able to reach the veterinary hospitals & laboratories, thereby ensuring a disease free status amongst them which will ultimately help in achieving 4% Annual growth rate in milk, 6% annual growth rate in eggs & meat production. To achieve this, modern & well equipped infrastructure at the mobile veterinary unit is essential. To ensure this, a detailed review of the existing veterinary mobile unit was undertaken by Commissionerate of Animal Husbandry of Maharashtra state in which, it has been estimated to have modern mobile infrastructure along with the diagnostic equipment’s which could reach the door step of farmers and provide on the spot diagnosis & treatment which could save the life of the diseased animals. The needed mobile veterinary infrastructure have to be estimated as per the following details i. 2 Veterinary Mobile Units cum diagnostic laboratory Vans ii. Internal fabrication of these veterinary diagnostic laboratories

58 iii. Modern Diagnostic equipment’s like Blood Analyzer, Hematological Analyzer, Microscope, Centrifuge machine, etc. iv. Extension services equipment’s like projector, mike, laptop etc. v. Garage for the Veterinary Mobile Units cum diagnostic laboratory So, it is proposed to strengthen the infrastructure of veterinary mobile unit by converting it into Veterinary Mobile Units cum diagnostic lab with an outlay of Rs. 48 lakhs, is proposed to be implemented under RKVY. Implementation of this project will ensure a prompt and efficient delivery of veterinary health services with qualitative improvement in it, which will directly benefit the livestock & poultry in the state and thus, the livestock owners and farmers at large would actually receive the prompt and efficient veterinary health services for their livestock. This will definitely result in enhancement of productivity of the livestock & poultry thereby facilitating sharp increase in production of milk, meat & eggs. Ultimately, the state as well as farmers & livestock owners will be benefited by enhanced economic gains and this will substantially help in uplifting the socio economic status of farmers & livestock owners in the state. This will also help in achieving the stipulated annual growth rate in milk, eggs & meat production as recommended by National Development Council. Total 2 Units x 24.00 = 48 lakhs. 7.

DAIRYING: INTRODUCTION

The overall growth rate (4.5 per cent) in the Livestock sector is steady in spite of the fact that, investment in this sector is not substantial. Women constitute 70 per cent of the labour force in Livestock farming. As the ownership of livestock is more evenly distributed with landless labourers and marginal farmers, the progress in this sector will result in a more balanced development of the rural economy. Animal Husbandry and dairying will receive high priority in the efforts for generating wealth and employment of the rural economy increasing the availability of animal protein in the food basket.

Milk production is helping to raise economic condition of marginal farmers, unemployed youths and women labourers. However, due to acute shortage of feed and fodder, lack of infrastructure facilities for collection, testing,

61 chilling, pasteurization, packing and disposal of milk, there is slow growth rate of milk production.

PRESENT SCENARIO: Details of Taluka-wise cows and buffalo population and cooperative milk societies are provided in the appended tables (table No) During 2014-15, milk production in the district was 207426 liters per day. There are 150 milk routes in the district at present. There are 9 milk unions, one at district level and 8 at taluka level. There is a milk processing plant at Beed with an installed capacity of 1 lakh liters per day and utilized capacity is 84000 liters per day. There are 4 chilling plants with a capacity of 52, 000 liters. Beed, Ashti, Georai and Ambejogai are major milk producing talukas in the district.

During 2014-15, total milk collected through 608 milk societies was 2.07 Lakhs liters/day. However, 834 coop. Milk societies have become dormant. In addition to this, other private agencies like Dynamic, Warna and Sanhyadri are also collecting 14,000-15000 and 21000 litres of milk dally. Reason for the gap in production of milk in Beed district is that only 34816 cross-bread cows and 64296 deshi cows along with 75979 buffaloes in Beed district. Other constraints in milk production in Beed district are-

i. The Government Agency through Cooperative Milk Societies is collecting milk only once a day. There are enough bulk coolers of even farm cooler for safe storage of milk drawn during the evening hours were provided to milk collecting societies but they were not using these. ii. Government Agency is testing milk samples as pooled samples both for SNF and FAT percent. iii. Payment to the producer is not that promt like that of private agencies. iv. There are 834 Co.op.Milk Societies out of 2030 co-op. milk societies in the district which have become dormant and need revival. Reasons for their dormancy are poor financial condition, frauds and mismanagements etc.

Successful dairying stands and thrives of following four pillars:-

[a] Breed and breeding. [b] Feeds and Feeding.

62 [c] Management – including disease control and health cover. [d] Milk and Milk Products – their disposal.

A) BREEDS AND BREEDING: For enhancing milk production, upgrading of Non-Discript (Deshi) cows by using H.F. and Jersey exotic bulls frozen semen be used. And for conservation of established local breeds like Red Kandhari and Deoni Breed Cattle semen of these breed bulls be used. For up gradation of local buffaloes frozen semen of Surti and Murrah breed buffalo bulls be used. For obtaining better conception rate, insemeinations of cows/buffaloes will have to be arranged at optimum time by reaching of the farmer-breeders door step.

B) FEEDS AND FODDER: Another aspect of successful dairying is feeds and fodder. Two important constituents of feeding are fodder (green and dry fodder) and concentrates. It is observed that fodder crop cultivation is declining, Usually, the animals are fed with food crop residues. Stocking of fodder in the form of silage and feeding of chaffed fodder is also in very much neglected percentage. The waste lands have not been developed in grazing lands. Ramnas which used to provide thousands of tons of hay / fodder are now in such a neglected conditions that they are not providing any fodder / hay.

It is observed that in Beed district Jawar, Bajra, Maize and Sugar Cane tops are used as fodder and that too in unchaffed condition. This result in huge wastage of fodder. Hence, to avoid wastage, only chaffed material should be fed to animals. It is also noticed that majority of the farmers are not feeding wheat bhusa with erroneous impression that animals do not eat it as this sticks to the animals pallet. It will not be out of place to mention here that cattle owners from Haryana, Punjab and Uttar Pradesh etc. are not finding it difficult to feed wheat bhusa to their animals. Hence, it is necessary to persuade the owners to feed wheat bhusa to their animals.

In Beed district very few cattle owners are feeding Lucerne or other green fodders to their animals. To increase the growth rate of milk production, farmers

63 having enough land and some irrigation facilities be encouraged to grow green fodder such as Lucerne, Burseem and more important one like Para grass. Animals can consume up to 25kg. of green fodder depending on their size, weight and production level etc. However, minimum 7 to 10 kgs. of green fodder should be fed.

CONCENTRATE FEED: Concentrate feed is required for body maintenance, milk production and during pregnancy period for development of calf in the womb. In Beed district consantrate ingredient such as Tur chur [Mung Churi, Udid Chur], gram churi and oil cakes like groundnut, cotton seed, sunflower and soyabeen etc. are easily available. In order to make balance cattle feed at economic price, wheat bran, gram, tur, mung husk and jawar, Bajra crushed should be added in appropriate proportion. (Churi 40 to 50 per cent + Oil cakes 20 to 25 per cent + husk 30 to 35 per cent). Ingredients should be mixed in such a proportion that, final product should contain 16 to 18 per cent DCP and 60 to 72 per cent TDN. Apart from the above, common salt at the rate of 2 per cent and 1 per cent mineral mixture should also be added.

C) MANAGEMENT & DISEASE CONTROL: Appropriate measures should be adopted for better management of young ones and all other animals. Disease control and health cover details are provided in a separate in a separate chapter.

D) DISPOSAL OF MILK AND MILK PRODUCTS: It is the most important aspect of the dairy industry and yet it is observed that unfortunately it is the most neglected one. To avoid spoilage of milk, the same should be disposed off (sold out) immediately. If it is not possible, there must be necessary infra- structure facilities such as daily twice collection of milk, chilling facilities within the radius of 5 to 10 krns. Milk collecting agencies should arrange for individual testing of milk samples for SNF and FAT percentage. Testing results should be made available to the producer and payment also should be arranged promptly. This single step will infuse confidence in the producers and they will be encouraged to get more milch animals.

64 In certain areas, where milk collection or sale is not possible, producer will be compelled to make milk biproducts such as ghee, khova, shrikhand and paneer etc. Necessary facilities like Khova / Paneer making machines will have to be provided to such producers. These machines will help in saving costly wood fuel and will also help in avoiding smoky flavour to the products. Efforts will also have to be made for providing them suitable marketing facilities (milk parlourers on highways, bus stands and railway stations, etc.) to sale out their biproducts at remunerative price.

present milk is being collected only once in a day. It is tested for both FAT and SNF percentage. However, if milk will be collected twice a day, their will be no problem of storage of milk drawn in the evening hours. Further, if milk is tested only for FAT per cent, producer will not get tempted for adulteration of milk. Thus producer will get better price and customer will also get of food quality milk.

Thus assured feed/fodder supply, better facilities for collection of milk, testing, chilling, processing and prompt payment to the producer will help in enhancing the growth rate of milk production to 6 percent.

SHEEP AND GOATS :

INTRODUCTION:

During the last 4 decades, there has not been much increase in the sheep population. Indian wool is primarily used in production of carpets, druggets and wall hanging etc. To enhance the quality and quantity of wool, shepherds need incentives like credit, health coverage, breed improvement programmes and timely disposal of wool and surplus animals at a remunerative price.

A majority of small and medium farmers, landless labourers and women members have been traditionally engaged in rearing sheep/goats. These activities hold huge commercial potential and need to be fully exploited by adopting an integrated approach.

Despite the least attention from the planners, goat population has increased steadily during the last two decades.

PRESENT SCENARIO: Details of taluka-wise sheep and goat population of Beed district are indicated in the appended tale (No --). Osmanabadi goat is nationally well known and is in great demand all over the state / country for its sturdiness, resistance

72 to diseases, early maturity, fast multiplication through twin births, low fat content in the meat apart from its delicious taste. Non availability of feed/fodder particularly that of grazing lands is a constraint in increasing meat production by increasing sheep and goat population. However, instead of increasing the sheep/goat population, emphasis should be laid on productivity per animal. The genetic improvement strategy coupled with extending credit to the poor land less farmers and women labourers will further boost the growth rate in meat production. Meat production from sheep and goats in the year 2014-15, amounted to 4760 MT which is 8.3 per cent of State’s total meat production.

At present there are no ongoing Govt. Schemes for sheep/goat development in Beed district. However, DRDA extends subsidy to SHGs under SGSY programme.

BREEDING POLICY:

1) It is primarily aimed at increased meat production and for sheep aims for increased wool production too. 2) Osmanabadi and Sangamneri breeds of goats and Deccany breed of sheep are identified as germ plasm for genetic up - gradation of non- descript breeds in respective species. 3) Considering the narrow gestation period and reproductive life span and also the other implications of A.I. technology in these species, natural services will continue to be the tool for up-gradation of sheep and goats. 4) Punyashlok Ahilya Devi Sheli va Mendhi Vikas Mahamanda will be responsible to maintain farms for production of nucleus flocks of selected breeds and organize breeder farmers associations. This will help for production of stock to be supplied at farmers - breeders end. 5) Punyashlok Ahilya Devi Sheli va Mendhi Vikas Mahamandal, Pune, MAFSU and Animal Science Division of State Agricultural Universities will be designate agencies responsible for conservation of native breeds of sheep and goats with element of public sector investment.

73 Now under Comprehensive District Agriculture Development Plan of Beed district, following strategies are suggested to augment 6 per cent growth rate in meat and wool production.

(A) BREED VILLAGE: It is scientific breeding program for goats taking village as geographic unit for operation. Under the scheme ‘true to type’ bucks will be supplied to goat rearing farmer breeders at 50 per cent subsidy cost price. These bucks will be produced at farms owned by State Sheep and Goat Development Corporation etc.

The bucks will be properly tagged. Every year there will be verification of existence and proper maintenance of these bucks by a committee consisting of District Dy. Commissioner of Animal Husbandry, District Animal Husbandry Officer, taluka extension officer etc.15 and 20 per cent refund per year, respectively will be provided to the owner on finding that the bucks are properly maintained on completing one and two years. After 3 years period these bucks will be shifted on rotation basis to different villages to avoid inbreeding.

Osmanabadi bucks will be provided for genetic up-gradation of local goats in the district. Details of budgetary provision required are indicated in the appended financial outlay of the project. (B) SUPPLY OF OSMANABADI GOATS : One hundred female members from Mahila Bachat Gat (SHGs) from each taluka will be selected for supplying 2 Osmanabadi female goats on 50 per cent cost subsidy. Cooperative Banks may provide loan for the remaining 50 per cent cost. Thus 2200 more female goats will be available in the district every year which will be helping to boost up growth rate of meat production by 6 per cent.

(C) TRAINING CAMPS: 1100 farmers, labourers from BPL and SHG category will be selected from all the talukas every year. Training /Extension programme should be arranged at frequent intervals for developing awareness regarding scientific rearing and management of sheep and goats by the owners.

74 (D) MINI SLAUGHTER HOUSE: Five composite mini slaughter houses (one each at Beed, Georai, Shirur, Ambejogai and Wadwani)-will be established. Where along with other infrastructure facilities, cold storage, and transport etc. will also be made available. 50 per cent subsidy will be provided by Central Government.

Well organized marketing facilities will help in getting remunerative price to the producer as the middleman will be avoided and it will also help the customer to get quality meat.

Details of budgetary provisions required for all the above mentioned schemes are provided in the appended financial outlay of the project.

SHEEP DEVELOPMENT: At present there are 88551 sheep in Beed district. Taluka-wise details of sheep population are provided in the appended table (Table No ) Normally Sheep are reared by nomadic type of breeders. Generally, these sheep are of non- descript type, which yield very coarse wool mixed with hairs. This coarse wool fetches very low price (Rs. 10 to 12 per kg) and as the producer is selling it through middleman, it becomes more uneconomic. The weight gain of these sheep is also very slow and hence meat production is very poor. To enhance the quality and quantity of wool and for increasing the growth rate of meat production shepherds need incentives like credit, health coverage, breed improvement programme and timely disposal of wool and meat. As per the breeding policy liad down by the State Govt., Deccany breed rams will be provided for bringing about genetic up-gradation of the available lot.

STRATEGY RECOMMEMDED:

1100 Deccany rams will be supplied to the flock owners from Beed district on 50 per cent subsidized cost. These will be properly tagged. Health cover and disease control programme will be arranged through Mobile Veterinary Dispensary. Natural services will be rendered by these rams to the available females, for bringing about genetic up gradation, thereby helping in improved

75 wool production and increased growth rate of meat production. Every year there will be verification of existence and proper maintenance of the supplied rams by a committee consisting of District Dy. Commissioner of Animal Husbandry, District Animal Husbandry officer, Z.P. Taluka Extension officer etc. 15 and 20 per cent of refund per year respectively will be provided to the owner on finding that the rams are properly maintained (and also providing services) on completing one and two years respectively. This will result in 6 per cent increased growth rate in meat and wool production.

Extension activities in Beed district are very poor. Hides/Skins are also not properly handled and hence fetch very low price. Department of Animal Husbandry should arrange for gearing up extension activities for increasing awareness for better sheep management and rearing, for imparting training for carpet weaving and also for better flaying of hides/skins.

Details of budgetary provision required for the schemes, the projected increased meat and wool production are provided in the appended table no 6 and in profile of projects. POULTRY INTRODUCTION Poultry is one of the important Animal Husbandry activities. Climatic conditions accept 2 hot months of the summer season in the district are conducive for poultry keeping. Business can be done by any group and by either sex. In present economic crisis poultry keeping provides better income. Organic manure is another valuable factor.

Poultry as a core agricultural allied activity has made tremendous strides in the last two decades. From back-yard unit it has developed into commercial sector and like other activities under the Animal Husbandry sector it has immense potential for employment and income generation. However, in Seed district the pace of progress under the sector has been rather tardy.

REASONS FOR THE GAPS ARE AS UNDER:

76 1. There is no Govt hatchery in the district. Two private hatcheries units namely M/S Vaishnavi Hatcheries Private Limited Ambejogai and Parvati Hatcheries, Georai have been established

2. Increase in feed cost, seasonal fluctuations in egg and meat prices, occasional outbreak of deadly disease like Bird-Flue, unorganized market and infrastructure facilities for grading / processing / packaging etc. are some of the constraints affecting the poultry sector.

BREEDING POLICY: 1) Breeding Policy for poultry aims at increased production of eggs and poultry meat b\ increasing productivity of native poultry birds and introduction of new species of birds.

2) State may continue to supply crossbred stocks of improved breed like R.I.R. For this purpose, these types of stocks may be maintained by poultry farms owned by State.

3) Breeding policy for chicken breeds mainly covers the species suitable for back yard poultry.

4) At present the breeds developed by ICAR Institutions like Vanrajj and Giriraj are recommended for purpose of up grating deshi poultry birds.

STRATEGIES SUGGESTED FOR INCREASING MEAT AND EGG PRODUCTION:

A) SMALL BREEDING UNITS IN BACK-YARD POULTRY CLUSTERS: As per the breeding policy for bringing about genetic improvement in local poultry birds, a unit of 23 hens and two cocks of improved breed like Giriraj and Vanraj of 8 weeks old will be supplied on 50 per cent cost subsidy to women members of Manila Bachat Gut and member from BPL groups. Cost per unit, amount of Rs. 800. Total number of beneficiaries will be 100. women members from each taluka Thus. total 1100 beneficiaries from the district. This will help in increasing the number of improved female poultry birds and thus will enhance the growth rate of egg production to 6 per cent. Budgetary provision required is indicated in the appended Financial Outlay of the Project.

77

B) SUPPLY OF HATCHING EGGS: Deshi hens are available with small farmers and even with landless labourers. These hens are broody every 6 months and can hatch out 9-10 chicks each time. This is most economical way of getting chicks hatched out - particularly when hatching services are not available. Hence, eggs form genetically improved breeds will be supplied to small marginal farmers and women members. Their Deshi hens will help in getting these eggs hatched out at very nominal cost. Thus, it will result in increasing the growth rate of eggs and meat production. Under this scheme. 10 Lakh, hatching eggs of improved breed will be supplied on subsidy cost basis every year in the district. Budgetary provision required is indicated in the Financial Outlay of the Project. Details have been provided in a separate note on Disease control and Health cover of

G) Establishment of Intensive Poultry Development Centre: As per the State Govt. policy state owned farm and hatchery will be established at the district for maintaining foundation stock of selected genetically improved birds breeds and to make male birds, pullets, day old chicks and hatching eggs etc. available for breeding/multiplication at farmers end.

It is presumed that Govt. land is available at district head quarter for establishing Intensive Poultry Development centre. At this site, a Brooder House, two Layer houses. Hatchery unit, office building and godown etc. will be constructed. Infrastructure facilities/equipment etc. will be made available. Budgetary provision required for the scheme is indicated in the appended in the Financial Outlay of the Project.

Thus, with all these multi pronged approach and systematic well planned strategies there will be significant increase in genetically improved poultry population, which with better rearing, feeding and disease control programmes etc. will result in increasing the growth rate of meat as well as egg production to 6 per cent.

LIVE STOCK HEALTH CARE AND DISEASE CONTROL

78

Since long, efforts are being made to control diseases namely, Rinderpest, Foot and Mouth Disease, H.S., B,Q. and Anthrax etc. Although, Rinderpest has been eradicated out from the country, prevalence of the other diseases continues to be one of the major problems in the animal production programmes. Some of the emerging diseases like PPR, Blue Tongue, Sheep Pox, Goat pox, Ranikhet and Bird Flu etc. are causing substantial economic losses. There should be an effective surveillance and monitoring system for diseases. There should also be mass immunization programme against the most prevalent diseases.

At present Veterinary services are provided through district Veterinary Polyclinic at district head quarter, mini polyclinics at talukas or tahsil level, and grade I and II Veterinary dispensaries in muffasil areas. One mobile Veterinary dispensary is also providing health cover in Badnapur tahsil. Thus, the present Veterinary aid is provided by 100 veterinary institutions in the district (Vide enclosed table). Veterinary health care is being rendered for – a) Treatment of ailing animals, which includes clinical diagnosis of the diseases, medicament and surgical interventions. b) Prevention against infectious diseases by carrying out prophylactic vaccination amongst all the species of livestock. c) Diagnosis of disease with the help of laboratory investigations. d) Deworming against parasitic diseases. e) Ectoparasite eradication to control economic loss. f) Reproductive programmes, like Artificial Insemination, Pregnancy Diagnosis, Infertility and allied problems. g) Medicolegal or Veterolegal cases. h) Emergency problems like out brakes, poisoning etc.

Apart from the above activities, Veterinarian has to participate in animal husbandry extension programmes like, infertility camps, training programmes, livestock exhibitions etc.

Details of Veterinary Institutions (Polyclinic, Mini polyclinics and Dispensaries etc are provided in the appended table. Details of treatments

79 undertaken, vaccinations and castrations etc. carried out in the district during the last 3 years are also provided in the appended table. District Polyclinic is provided with a diagnostic aid like X-Ray unit for radiological analysis of the problem cases. However, it is observed that, for want of experienced Radiologist or X-Ray technician, X-Ray plant cannot be used efficiently. It is therefore proposed to have a X-Ray technician to assist the incharge Veterinarian. Graduate Veterinarian should also be given advanced training in handling X-Ray plant and radiological interpretation.

Though, Diagnostic Laboratory is established at district Polyclinic, there is also no Laboratory technician available for undertaking laboratory work. Further, this Diagnostic laboratory needs to be modernized by providing diagnostic equipments Viz. Autoanalyser, serum testing kits, chemical, biochemical estimation kits and for diagnosis of poisoning cases, the toxicological testing kits also be provided. Thus, a laboratory technician along with all required equipments be provided immediately. Budgetary provision required for strengthening of all polyclinics is indicated in profile of project.

Prophylactic vaccination against diseases like Black Quarter, H.S., E.T.,V.R.P. Sheep pox, Foot and Mouth disease etc. can be entrusted to Pashu Sevaks also, who will be employed for carrying out door- step A.I. work. By this way, more and more member of livestock will be getting protected as the existing available staff will get assistance without no additional financial burden. Thus, strengthening Veterinary Polyclinic will help in giving quality Veterinary health services. As suggested in a note on Artificial Insemination work for carrying out A.I. work as well as for effective Prophylactic vaccination programmes, all the Veterinary staff may be provided with Rs. 2000/- each per month towards conveyance allowance, so that the staff can reach to the livestock as and when required conveniently.

Endemic chart of infectious diseases should be strictly prepared every year. Prophylactic vaccination under these areas on first priority basis should be undertaken before onset of monsoon. Rest of the area or adjoining areas should be covered later. Prophylactic vaccination en-mass can also be undertaken in all cattle markets in the district.

80 Generally, villagers do not come out for vaccination unless there is an epidemic. It is therefore suggested that wide publicity through media be undertaken eighter through government or NGO services. This will promote farmer-breeders to get their animals vaccinated.

It is generally observed that farmer-breeders avoid treating their new born calves particularly mate caves. Irrespective of the sex, all new born calves should get immediately following birth colostrum, which provide immunity against various diseases.

Another important problem in these calves is that of worm infestation, either congenital or acquired. Deworming programme should be under taken at regular intervals by using effective anthelmentics.

In order to meet the reproductive problems effectively regular Gyneaco - Clinimal examination is a must. At times, expert’s opinion may be made available form Veterinary colleges.

HAZARDS OF FEEDING SUGARCANE TOPS: A large area in the district has come-up under sugarcane plantation. It is observed that farmer –breeders from these areas feed their animals with sugarcane tops. This is resulting in coffee colour urine- Heamoglobinurea disease, particularly in buffaloes. Hence buffalo owners will have to be educated to feed sugarcane tops only after treating with phosphorus.

MASTITIS: Bad handling procedures of striping milk coupled with unhygienic conditions lead to Mastitis problem in milking animals. It is hazardous disease and as there is considerable reduction in milk yield resulting in economic loss. Quick diagnostic test reagents with required equipment have been provided at most of the Veterinary institutions. Mastitis detecting reagents should be supplied regularly and special Mastitis detection programme should be organized at frequent intervals.

FASIOLOSIS:

81 In Osmanabadi district there are 4 irrigation projects viz. Chandni, Terna, Bori and Lower Torna. In these areas Faciolosis problem through liver flukes do occur. It brings about motility and mortality in young calves and sheep, leading to economic loss to the farmers. Natural prevention of Fasiolosis can be possible if duck rearing programme is implemented in this area. Ducks reared just eat snails and thus help in prevention of disease. Treating boundaries of tanks and river beds with copper sulphate can also reduce incidence of the disease.

RABIES: Now a days, dog population in city areas has increase. If these dogs are not cared for – particularly vaccinated against rabies, it will result in incidences of Rabies in the areas. Rabies prevention can be effectively done by undertaking vaccination of owned as well as of stray dogs. To control increased population of dogs, dog breeding control programme should be under taken with the cooperation from NGO like SPCA. This will result not only in controlling the dog population but will help in reducing the Rabies problem from untreated dogs.

Thus, mutipronged approach for disease control and health care will result in well being of the livestock and help in giving boost to their production i.e. of milk, meat, eggs and wool too. Table Showing taluka - wise cattle and buffalo Population in Beed district (2011 Census).

5.6 WATERSHED DEVELOPMENT :

1. Title : Watershed Development in Beed District.

2. Nature of Activity : As stated earlier, the soils have been depleted and degenerated, through harming the soil health. One of the fast ways is to treat the land with soil and water conservation measures in an integrated fashion on delineated watershed basis. The watershed suggested by Groundwater Survey & Development Agency (GSDA1 is too large to handle for all the measures. Therefore, it is essential to undertake works in mini-watersheds of 500 to 1000 ha. All treatments starting from CCT on ridge to drainage line treatment must be carried out on a time-bound programme. Hence, it is suggested to complete all over which has not been treated with watershed development works, in five years time period. In the past, some watersheds have been treated partly and declared as the area has been completed. Such incomplete treatment does not generate full benefits. The works under EGS, particularly created such a situation. Therefore, it is essential to use machinery for time-bound completion of works and treatments. The details under each schemes are given in the tables.

5. 8 : INNOVATIVE SCHEME : I SECTION : AGRO BASED RURAL DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME BY ATMA (ORGANIZING ASSET - POOR - FARMERS FOR CRITICAL AGRO - SERVICES) Our focus, in this section of the chapter, is on organising the small and marginal farmers as well as the landless labourers in each village into one or more self-help- groups and helping them through good training and adequate credit to provide to all the farmers various services, which are critical to agricultural development. Those services will help to improve the productivity of all lands including their own small farms. The wages for the services rendered will improve the earnings of these asset poor farmers. The strategy is to upgrade their skills, add to their meager incomes and to improve their capabilities and self-confidence while rendering critically useful services to the village community. Because agriculture is in trouble, through this programme, we try to convert the perceived weakness of small non-viable farms into strength by transforming the asset-poor- farmers into viable service providers who would be simultaneously improving the viability of their own small farms through those services and other inputs.

This is an unique approach. It attempts to combine poverty reducing strategies with the strategies of raising agricultural production. This combination should mean a real constructive rural development revolution. The small farmer's groups, thus, helping rejuvenation of agriculture will have a significant socio economic impact in rural areas. The programme is based on the assumption of the inherent goodness among the rural poor and the natural human instinct of helping each other.

95 The lands held by the small and marginal farmers are mostly degraded because they have not been deep ploughed for decades and on account of poverty, the farmers have never been able to apply any organic manures or fertilizers. The small farmers themselves have to work as agricultural labourers on other's farms and arc often unable to give any attention to their own crops. The small size of their holding is un-economic and non- viable and because of the high prices of fodder the small farmers cannot even afford to keep a pair of bullocks.

The ownership of land in this district is skewed. The proportion of farmers owning less than two hectares of land is 81.45 % but the land they hold is only 51.87 %.

Their small farming is always dependent on someone else's assistance and does not provide any significant support for subsistence. In short 80% of the farmers are living at bare existence levels and 10% of all the lands hardly make any contribution to the growth of agricultural production.

These asset poor or assets less farmers are naturally the most vulnerable section among the rural people. They are at or below the minimum levels of education, health, nutrition and well being. Principles of equity and social justice demand that an all out effort should be made to pull up these sections of the society to a level of well being at which they may live and work with dignity and contribute to the development of the society as a whole. We are proposing one way of doing it. It is easily adaptable to the socio- economic and agronomic conditions of each village.

POTENTIAL LINKED CREDIT PLAN – 2015-16 BEED DISTRICT General

NABARD has been preparing Potential Linked Credit Plan (PLP) for the district annually which forms the basis of the Annual Credit Plan for the banks operating in the district. The Potential Linked Credit Plan (PLP) of the district assesses in financial terms, taking into account the present and emerging potentials for various activities in Priority

96 Sector, infrastructure facilities and other support services existing/ planned, both by Government and Non-Government agencies.

Beed district

Total geographical area of the district is 9.62 lakh Ha, of which Gross Cropped Area (GCA) is around 8.07 lakh Ha. Net Sown Area (NSA) is 7.43 lakh Ha. Cropping intensity is 109 %. The average land holding is 1.58 Ha. The gross irrigated area is 2.35 lakh Ha (29.1 % of GCA) and net irrigated area is around 1.71 lakh Ha (23.01 % of NSA). The last five years’ average GCA under Kharif is 5.52 lakh Ha (66.74 %), area under Rabi is 3.79 lakh Ha (45.84 %) and area under summer crop is 3200 Ha (0.39 %). Jowar, Bajra, Soyabean, Tur, Cotton and Sugarcane are main crops in the district. Rabi crops are mainly Jawar, Wheat, Gram, Oilseeds, etc. Agro Processing activities consist of sugar mills, oil mills, dal mills, Cotton Spinning & Ginning Mills, etc.

The ACP achievement was Rs 2395.21 crore as against target of Rs 1809.53 crore for the year 2013-14, which was 132.37% The growth rate in credit disbursements during 2012-13 and 2013-14 was 69.61% and 23.64% respectively over that of disbursements made during previous years. The performance of Commercial Banks as a group has improved during the year 2013-14 and their share in ACP was 77.49% as against 47.55 % during previous year. Share of DCCB in the ACP during 2013-14 was 13.93% as against 43.36% during previous year. MGB’s share in the ACP during 2013- 14 was 8.58 % as against 9.19 % during previous year.

The district is served by 14 commercial banks with a network of 80 branches, Maharashtra Gramin Bank with 50 branches and Beed DCCB with 62 branches and 740 PACS. The average CD ratio of banks is 86.45% over the last 3 years. Average achievement of Annual Credit Plans was 127.66 % over the last three year.

Comments on the projections: Sector-wise Potentials in the district An aggregate potential of Rs 2584.75 lakh has been projected for the district for the year 2015-16, registering a growth of 26.60 % over that of the previous year.

The potential estimates for some of the major sectors are presented overleaf:

97

Crop Loan: Credit potential for crop loan which includes crop husbandry, Post harvest/ household/ Consumption requirements and Repairs and maintenance expenses of farm assets has been assessed at Rs 1806.09 crore (71% of PLP) Loan for crop cultivation is estimated at Rs 1357.10 crore of which loan for growing food crops i.e. cereals, Pulses & oilseeds has been assessed taking into consideration to changing cropping pattern and availability of irrigataion. Considering the past trend, credit projection of Rs 1009.50 crore has been made for cotton, soybean and sugarcane crops.

There is need for giving boost to Capital investment in agriculture and allied sector activities. The potential for Term Finance from banks in various sub sectors has been assessed for Rs 263.10 crore for the year 2015-16, which is 10.11% of PLP projection.

Water Resources: The potential for private investments through bank finance for dug wells/ Bore wells and water lifting and water conservation/distribution systems i.e. pumpsets, pipeline and drip/ sprinklers, has been assessed at Rs 51.79 crore for the year 2015-16, which is the major component of PLP projection.

Land Development: The credit potential estimated for the sector is at Rs 3.60 crore. The potential estimated is slightly higher than projections made in the Base PLP, which was Rs 3.51 crore.

Farm Mechanisation: The credit potential estimated for the sector is at Rs 23.46 crore. The potential estimated is around 8.60 % higher than the credit flow of 14.81 crore during 2013-14.

Plantation & Horticulture : The credit potential estimated for the sector is at Rs 18.74 crore. The potential estimated is slightly higher than projections made in the Base PLP, which was Rs 18.42 crore.

Animal Husbandry: The projection of bank credit for various activities under AH sector comprising of Dairy, Poultry and Sheep/Goat rearing is made for Rs 90.09 crore, which constitutes 34.25% of Agriculture Term Loan projection for the year 2015-16.

98 Storage Godown and Market Yard: Credit potential for this sector has been assessed at Rs 65.44 crore, which constitutes 25.26% of Agriculture Term Loan projection for the year 2015-16.

MSME Investment (incl Food and Agro Processing): Development of this sector is affected due to non availability of infrastructure like rail and road connectivity, power supply. Credit potential for this sector has been assessed at Rs 114.16 crore, which constitutes 21.64% of total PLP projection for the year 2015-16.

Other Priority Sector: Activities include housing, education, transport operators, professionals and self-employed, etc. Suitable bank finance schemes to support improving Human Development Index (HDI) values viz education, health, etc be introduced. The projection of bank credit for various activities under the sector is made for Rs 401.39 crores.

Micro-finance: A total of 9499 SHGs (SGSY and Open) were formed cumulatively upto 2014, of which 5641 SHGs (open 3892 and SGSY 1749) were credit linked. Considering the matured SHGs and new SHGs to be formed, potential for credit linkage of 3500 new SHGs and 1800 SHGs for repeat finance and promotion and credit linkage of 350 JLGs has been assessed.

Financial Inclusion: Out of total 1360 villages in the district, there are 129 and 401 unbanked villages having population above 2000 and between 1000-2000 respectively. Banks have covered 127 unbanked villages having population above 2000 by appointing BC/BF.

Major constraints & Suggested action points:

 Major issues confronting the district are absence of rail and air connectivity, non- availability of safe drinking water in certain villages, poor sanitation facilities, etc.

 The district has a total railway route of 47.86 k.m. [( Parali– Baijnath single broadguage line (40.38 KM) and Parali Baijnath – Parali (7.48 KM)] and 5 state highways and 10 major district roads. Of total road length of 9,445.14 K.M., only 5683.57 km (60.2%) is tarred.

99  The district lags behind in areas of irrigation, roads, and higher / professional education and health services as compared to the State average.

 Literacy rate especially among female is far below than the state level.

 Although 100% of the villages are electrified, frequent and unscheduled /long power cuts, low voltages are a regular phenomenon and warrants improvement.

 Considering the land holding pattern and also the problem of fragmented holdings, banks may have to promote JLGs and extend credit facility to tenant farmers/sharecroppers and marginal farmers.

 In view of depletion of groundwater, there is an imminent need to recharge the ground water, bring in proper legislation and usage of water saving devices.

 Scientific storage, supply chain management & market linkages.

 Dairy loans to be encouraged on a large scale with tie up arrangements with Milk Cooperative societies and SHGs.

 Credit flow for sheep farming is to be supported by a collective recovery effort by banks together with development agencies.

 Use on non-conventional energy sources particularly for solar power & financing by banks for solar systems

Area based schemes: Considering large number of small and marginal farmers and people below the poverty line and as also the extensiveness of agriculture and rural development there is a need for promoting viable activities on a cluster basis which can be aggregated into area development scheme. Area development schemes on Poultry & dairy have been prepared in consultation with the line departments & Banks. These schemes may be encouraged by banks in the identified cluster, which would also facilitate planning and execution of infrastructure facilities viz., backward and forward linkages for full realization of the benefits of the scheme. Highlights of developments / initiatives having bearing on the credit flow: NABARD has taken up many developmental initiatives viz., promotion of JLGs, godown accreditation and technology interventions which have direct bearing on the credit flow. Under PODF scheme, NABARD has taken initiative developing PACS as a one stop shop

100 unit for meeting all the needs of the farmers like providing agriculture implements on hire basis, enabling purchase of inputs, having good quality storage capacity as per Negotiable Warehouse Receipt system, marketing facilities, etc. Thrust areas: Thrust areas for 2015-16 such as JLG / SHG financing, financing of post- harvest infrastructure, mini processing units, Producer Organizations, NWRs, area based schemes, etc. Infrastructure – Government & Private investments: Infrastructure development is a necessary pre-condition for integrated rural development in the district. Rural Infrastructure Development Fund (RIDF) serves as a supplement to the efforts being made by State Governments in this direction. The cumulative sanctions and disbursements under RIDF Tranche XII to XIX are Rs 155 crore & Rs 95 crore respectively covering 628 projects. The critical infrastructure required for the district are water harvesting structures, micro irrigation, custom hiring and agro service centers etc. Private investments are very much required in rural godowns, cold storages & seed processing industries and other post-harvest infrastructure. These will be capable of creating wide and big impact leading to increased production and productivity, better price realization by farmers there by higher credit off take. Conclusion: There is a need for a coordinated approach for enhancing capital formation, strengthening of SAMIS reporting system, better monitoring and review at BLBC and DCC meetings, effective implementation of financial inclusion plans including coverage of Oral Lessees, Tenant Farmers into Joint Liability Groups.

5.9 AGRO PROCESSING INDUSTRIES (BEED DISTRICT)

1. INTRODUCTION: The structure of the district economy is agnation in nature, as 82% of the total population of the district is rural and dependent on agricultural sector for its livelihood. Hence, there is an urgent need to divert some part of this population and labour force from agriculture to non-farm sector of the district economy. For absorbing this labour force in the non-farm sector, the expansion of agro-processing and rural industries is required. Hence, in this section we shall deal with this problem.

2. DROUGHT-PRONE AREAS AND HUGE TEMPORARY MIGRATION OF LABOUR: The Govt. of Maharashtra had appointed a number of committees to identify drought-prone talukas in Maharashtra state from time to time. For example, the Sukhatkar Committee (1973), Pardasani Committee (1960), etc. According to these committees, except, Ambajogai all other talukas were declared as “drought prone”. The Subramanian Committee (1987), again identified 94 talukas in Maharashtra as drought prone. While in Beed district, all talukas including Ambejogai was declared as “drought prone”. This is an important constraint on agricultural as well as industrial development of Beed district.

THE PROBLEM OF HUGE LABOUR MIGRATION : Due to drought prone conditions in almost all talukas of Beed district, the job opportunities in agricultural sector are very limited. As a result about 2 lakh families temporarily migrate to other districts as cane-cutter workers, in sugar factories. Generally, they migrate with their luggage and entire family for about six months. i.e. October to March every year. From June to October they again

102 return to their villages, as they obtain employment during Kharif season. The major reasons for migration are as follows: (a) Some families own small pieces of land, but the income from such lands is very meager and in-adequate for the survival of the family. (b) Wages in villages during October-March are very meager, as there is no work in the villages; on the other hand, the wages earned by them as cane-cutters is much higher, and, that is the main reason for their migration. (c) Although, these workers get relatively higher wages paid by the sugar factories, their family life is disrupted. i.e. Children have to suffer for lack of education, sometimes older members of the families are lift behind in their villages. Hence, there is complete disruption of social life. This problem can be solved by two methods: i) Increase in irrigated area of district so as to enable them to raise two crops a year, and, ii) Expansion of agro-processing, rural industries in the district so as to create more job opportunities for them.

Till today, no satisfactory solution has been evolved to reduce the social and economic misery of these unfortunate people.

3. POST HARVEST AGRO PROCESSING ACTIVITIES IN BEED DISTRICT: PRESENT STATUS : I) The Charkravarti Committee (1982) had identified 160 districts in India as “Core Backward” districts; Beed district was one of them. Recently, the Sarma Committee (1997) appointed by the Govt. of India had identified Beed district as one of the “100 Poorest Districts” in the country. Industrially, all the blocks in Beed district have been classified under D + category.

II) MAJOR REASONS FOR BACKWARDNESS OF THIS DISTRICT ARE: Poor natural resources endowment, like negligible forest area, low and irregular rainfall; absence of mineral wealth; absence of railway network for quick and cheap transportation of perishable and other goods to big markets like, , Pune. In-adequate market facilities. Absence of large-scale private or public industries (except one thermal power station at Parali). Lack of quality and regular power supply, Lack of

103 technically trained manpower and entrepreneurial skills are also some of the reasons for its backwardness.

III) PRESENT STATUS: (a) There are eight sugar factories in the district, of which 6 are in cooperative and two are in private sector. The total investment in these factories is Rs. 150 crore, while they employ 1500 persons. These factories produce various by-products like bagasse and molasses, which are used for production of industrial alcohol.

(b) There are a total number of 98 cotton pressing and ginning mills in the district, of which only 2 are in the cooperative sector. With increasing level of cotton output, 6 new units have been established in the district.

(c) There are five food processing units like mini oil and Dal mills. There are a few small units of pickle, fruit jam, which are in unorganized sector. The district does not have a single fruit processing unit in the organized sector.

(d) The MCED organizes training programmes like Entrepreneur Development, EDP, DPSE, VIP, Goat farming, Vermi compost, dairy based activities, floriculture etc.

4. ASSESSMENT OF RAW-MATERIAL BASE IN BEED DISTRICT: Beed district is basically an agrarian economy with a good base for agro and food processing units. Jowar, Bajra, Tur, Udid, mung, sunflower, groundnut, cotton, sugarcane, soyabean are the major crops raised in the district.

5. POTENTIAL FOR AGRO-PROCESSING IN BEED DISTRICT: On the basis of the surplus available for agro-processing units in Beed district, the potential for additional investments in agro processing units is shown in the following table. It shows that there is a good scope for the establishment of 9 categories of activities under agro-processing sector. The total number of units suggested for 2008-09, is 117 with a total investment of Rs. 375 lakhs; the bank loan available for these projects is quite substantial i.e. Rs. 336.96 lakhs or 89.7%

104 of total investments. The private entrepreneurs should be encouraged to undertake such activities in the district. A similar investment can be expected during the XII plan period, creating job opportunities for the rural youth. Table 5.23

6. SUGGESTIONS: i) Banks should play a pro-active role and provide guidance to potential entrepreneurs. They should provide necessary investment credit along with working capital for their smooth functioning. There should be a close coordination

105 between banks, District Industry Centres and Dept. of agriculture for identification of various type of units and requirements of credit needs of potential entrepreneurs. ii) Attitudinal change among farmers and educated entrepreneurs is required, which is lacking today. Training of qualified agricultural graduated and others having technical qualifications should be encouraged to undertake such non-farm activities in the district. It is also suggested that the banks should be involved in this process right from the selection of candidates till their credit linkage and effective monitoring. iii) It is suggested that the ceiling under the Margin Money Scheme of the DIC should be raised so as to widen the scope of the projects to be undertaken by the entrepreneurs. The Margin Money scheme should be implemented on the lines implemented by the Khadi and Village Industries Corporation (KVIC), i.e. Margin money should not be in the nature of a loan. iv) Self Help Groups (SHGs) may be encouraged to undertake projects like, Khawa making, Paneer and Pickles on a cluster basis, so that raw material required can be used effectively with economies of scale, and value addition. v) There is huge unemployment among educated youth in Beed district, mainly because they are unemployable, due to lack of skills. Hence, qualified NGOs need to come forward for organising Rural Entrepreneur Development Programmes (REDP), in association with lead bank or NABARD, for imparting training to unemployed youth. vi) The State Govt. should also take effective steps so that Technology prescribed by the CFTRI, Mysore, is disseminated to these entrepreneurs. vii) Marketing: Marketing of the products manufactured by the agro processing units or by Self Help Groups, is the major problem faced by these units. However, M.S.S.I.D.C., may prove helpful in this regard. The responsibility of supplying raw material and machinery as well as marketing of products should be entrusted with the M.S.S.I.D.C. which may set up showrooms at district level to serve as outlets for the products.

106

OTHER ISSUES: a) For marketing of perishable goods, availability of cold storages in adequate capacity is essential. It is suggested that Agriculture Dept. should make Taluka- wise scientific assessment storage capacities required in the district. b) The APMC should provide facilities like, grading, processing and packing of agricultural products. This will lead to value addition, employment and rising levels of incomes. c) Branding of the products: For getting national and international recognition, branding of a product is of great importance. To reduce the cost of branding. Product-wise farmers associations, should take the lead. Branding would lead to expand the market for the product both nationally & globally.

d) Infra-structure: In Beed district there is lack of railway net-work (except Parli-Hyderabad and Parli-Parbhani rail link) Beed town is not connected to any city rail line. The public demand for Parli-Beed- is still in initial stage. If this rail line is completed within the XI plan period, it would give a big boost to the district economy. -Beed-Aurangabad rail-line is also under consideration of the Govt. of India. These rail-lines would link Beed with major cities like Mumbai, Pune, Aurangabad and North Indian cities. This would enable the farmers to sell their agro-products in these big consumption centres and obtaining better prices for their products. Good road linkages; cold storages with regular quality power supply, market yard facilities which are other important infra- structure facilities which are lacking today. e) Information about prices: To obtain better prices for their products, the farmers in the district should get information about prices of various agro-products in major domestic and international markets. Such information is now available on website or by e-mail, etc. Farmers should be encouraged to take advantage of such facilities available.

5.10 DEVELOPMENT OF RURAL INDUSTRIES: THE DISTRICT INDUSTRIES CENTRE, BEED:

107 No information on development of rural industry (DIC) was supplied. All the forms relating to this subject were blank.

5.11 AGRICULTURAL MARKETING: MARKETING AND STORAGE GODOWNS (BEED DISTRICT) : There are at present 8 Agriculture Produce Marketing Committees (APMCs) and 19 sub-committees in Beed district. The turnover of various kinds of agriculture produce through these regulated markets, on an average, is 3.60 lakh Metric Tonnes, while the turnover in unregulated markets is estimated at 1.8 lakh MT. Hence, the total turnover of agriculture goods handled by both regulated and un-regulated markets is about 5.4 lakh MT. Therefore there is a need for the construction of rural godowns of smaller capacities at the village levels, to avoid distress sale by the farmers, and enable them to obtain pledge loans from the banking system.

PRESENT POSITION OF GODOWNS: At present there are 34 godowns of the Maharashtra State Ware housing Corporation in Beed district with a storage capacity of 28.054 Metric Tonnes. Apart from this ther are 8 private godowns with a storage capacity of 12242 MTs. Govt. and MSWC godowns are used by the State Govt. for storing food grains for the purpose of public Distribution system as well as for Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme. Some parts of godowns are also used by the private traders for storing agricultural inputs like, fertilizer, good etc.

i) The Capital Investment Subsidy Scheme of the Govt. of India for Construction/renovation/expansion of rural godowns, was available from 1999- 2000, and was likely to continue till 2007. ii) NABARD has prepared a Model Scheme for construction of rural godowns for the beneficiaries/banks. iii) Credit linked subsidy scheme is also available; the Govt. of India scheme for construction and modernization of cold storages providing subsidy at 25% of the project cost subject to a ceiling.

108 The following table shows the potential for the construction of storage godowns, cold storages and rural godowns in Beed district for the XI plan period.

1) INTRODUCTION: Credit institutions play an important role in providing short, medium and long-term capital to the various sectors of the District Economy. The impact of Credit system depends upon its efficient and timely delivery mechanism. Therefore, in this section, it is proposed to discuss the role of the banking sector in the provision of agricultural credit to the cultivators in Beed district.

2) ORGANIZATION AND SPREAD OF BANKING NET-WORK IN BEED DISTRICT: Table 37shows the spread of banking services in various talukas of Beed district. There are a total number of 74 bank offices of the commercial banks in Beed district of which a maximum of 18 branches are located in Beed Taluka alone (or 25%); followed by Ambejogai (12) and Georai (10) and Ashti (10) branches. All talukas have at least one commercial bank.

Regional Rural Banks (RRB) have 49 branches in Beed district; all the talukas have branches of the RRB. These banks, specifically, cater to the needs of the weaker sections of the society. Cooperative Banking System plays a dominant role in providing agriculture credit to the cultivators in Beed district, they

109 have a total number of 70 branches in all the talukas of Beed (13); Ashti and Georai (10) branches each); Ambejogai (8) and Majalgaon (8) branches.

At the village level, there are a total no. of 679 Primary Agriculture credit Societies (PACs) in Beed district, which cater to the credit needs of the cultivators at the village level. There are other banks also with a branch network of 8 branches in Beed district.

There are a total number of 880 branch offices of all the credit institutions in Beed district, of which PACs have a major share of about 77%, followed by commercial banks (8.5%) and cooperative banks (7.9%). Hence the spread of banking in the district is satisfactory.

CROP LOANS OR SHORT-TERM CREDIT: i) Timely and adequate amount of crop loans to cultivators plays an important role in raising production and productivity of crops in a given region. However, the productivity also depends upon other factors like irrigation facilities, regular rainfall nature of soils and efficient use of inputs. In this section we shall examine the availability of crop loans made available to the cultivators by the banking system. ii) Major crop grown in the district are: Kharif season: Jowar, Bajra, Maize, Mung, Udid, Tur, Groundnut, Cotton and Soybean, Rabi season : Rabi Jowar, wheat, gram, and oil seeds. Sugar cane is the main crop taken in irrigated areas. Vegetables and horticulture crops are raised in areas where assured irrigation is available.

Crop loans and ground level reality:

113 The above estimates of crop loans during the XII plan period are based are based on the assumption that, the entire land under various crop is advanced crop loans on the basis of the scale of finance recommended by the DLTC. But, in actual practice, the amount of crop loans advanced by the commercial and cooperative banks to the cultivators in much below this estimates made above, due to following reasons:

(i) All the cultivators are not members of the cooperative banks or other banks. Many cultivators have no access to formal credit system, (ii) Number of farmers, although they might be members of the cooperative banks, they are likely to be non-eligible to obtain fresh loans due to default of loans, (iii) The actual resource position of the cooperative and other banks may not be such as to provide crop loans as recommended by the DLTC.

KISAN CREDIT CARD (KCC) SCHEME : BEED The KCC scheme was introduced in 1998-99 to ensure availability of timely and adequate credit to cultivators. All eligible borrower farmers, tenant farmers, lessee holders, share croppers are covered under this scheme. Apart from crop loans, term loans the consumption loans can also be sanctioned under the KCC scheme. The KCC is issued for a period of 3 years and the cardholder has the flexibility to with draw the amount from any of the designated bank branches, and repay the amount in part or full at any time before expiry of the limit.

The details of the Kisan Credit Cards issued and loans sanctioned, in Beed district is shown below.

In 1999-2000, the initial year, the number of KCC issued was only 5957, while the total loan sanctioned was Rs. 694.25 lakh. But, during the subsequent years, the no. of KCC issued has shown an increasing trend. For example, in 2006-07, the cumulative KCC issued was 359086 and the total amount of loans sanctioned was Rs. 27498 lakhs. However, there appears to be some room for improvement of scheme. I) There is low level of awareness among the farming

114 community; the banks should implement this scheme in letter and spirit. 2) There is a back of computerization and networking of bank branches; restrictions on issue of cheque books and indifferent attitude of the bankers, are some of the hindrances in Beed district.

115 CHAPTER VI DISTRICT PLAN – BEED

6.1 INTRODUCTION: We are presenting in this chapter a detailed District Plan of Beed, for the XII plan (2002-17). It includes important growth drivers, innovative schemes, and budgetary provisions for the XII plan, to achieve the targeted growth rate. This also contains the necessary requirement of inputs such as improved seeds, fertilizers, pest- control measures. Projects are also included on improved water management, specifically, use of drip/sprinkler irrigation. Watershed management & soil health. Training and technology transfer facilitating farmers knowledge, have been projected. Some of the innovative schemes have been suggested.

6.2 SECTORAL / REGIONAL GROWTH DRIVERS OF THE DISTRICTS: Out of the several proposals made in the C DAP, we are highlighting a few below, which, in over opinion, set the direction of development and on which the success of the C -DAP depends.

(i) The massive program of watershed development combined with the expansion of soil testing facilities and supported by inputs for soil health enhancement is the key driving force for the sustained growth and long term development of agriculture in the district. All the small and marginal holdings which are degraded for want of inputs and will be covered by these two very positive aspects of soil conservation and soil health enhancement. Combined with other inputs and improvements, one third of all the cultivated area which has not been making any positive contribution to production will come back in the production stream.

(ii) Diligent water Resources Management: The huge watershed development programme proposed in the C-DAP will augment ground water availability substantially. Its diligent use through old and new wells fitted with micro irrigation systems will double the irrigated areas, enable growing of high value crops including horticulture and raise their productivities. Thousands of farm ponds will provide irrigation for at least one more crop and improve the viability of presently nonviable farms. Better maintenance and management of the canal systems of the existing projects will add large areas under irrigation.

(iii) Empowerment of Asset less Poor farmers The proposed empowerment will, i) Help rejuvenation of agriculture in the village through the good services provided by the SHG/S; ii) Help rejuvenate their own presently non-viable farms through their own good services and input; iii) Lift the more than 60% of the total farmer families from their BPL marginal living to a self employed, wage earning and dignified status of well being.

The proposed empowerment will make a quiet but, fully constructive socio- economic revolution. iv) Improving productivities of all the crops through better practices and inputs will be another driving force for growth. Raising the areas under higher value crops will raise incomes of the farmers. There should be an all-round effort to fill in all productivity gaps. v) Effective extension and intensive training of farmers are two key elements of CDAP. The whole process of dissemination of modern technology and acceleration of growth of agricultural production depends on how we conduct these two drivers i.e. direction setting activities. vi) Peoples participation:

The C DAP will be directly approved by the DPC or DPDC. Several of the elements like training, organizing, or monitoring are the responsibility of people’s representative bodies like, Panchayat Samities or GPs or NGO/s like ATMA, KVK etc.

Agriculture itself and several supporting activities are in the private sector. This should mean that the process will not be much burdened by official inertia or indifference. The reward being their own district’s development and well being of the people, we do hope that everyone concerned would do his best and make the CDAP a success.

I) INNOVATIVE SCHEME : (A) ORGANISING ASSET POOR FARMERS INTO SHGS: A major weakness is the skewed land holding or land ownership in the district and operating holdings of less than 2 ha together holding 30% of cultivated area. Most of these small holdings are meaning that they consist of more than one piece of land scattered or located away each other. Those holdings are un-economic and non- viable. The owners do not afford to keep even a pair of bullocks. Their cultivation is indifferent. The lands receive desired village rarely and do not at all get any manures or fertilizers for soil health, As a result their soils have gone on degrading and their productivities are very low. Thus, 30% of the cultivated area is not contributing in the process of agricultural growth and 60% of the ' holders are living a low level of bare existence.

We have proposed an innovative scheme (see section 5.Sin chapter 5) to organize these asset poor and asset less farmers in Self Help Groups and to train and help them undertake agro-services and small agro- producing enterprises which are critical for rejuvenating the whole system of agriculture of the village. In the process the members of these SHGs will also be enabled to bring their own holdings back to viability and with additional employment and earnings get out of the poverty trap.

6.3 INNOVATIVE SCHEME - II) COST AND PRICES OF MAJOR CROPS AND THE PROBLEM OF REMUNERATIVE PRICES: ADOPTION OF NEW TECHNOLOGY: I) Fluctuations in market prices of agricultural produce is the major cause of fluctuations in the levels of incomes of the farmers. As long as the market prices of agriculture produce are higher than the Minimum support Prices (MSP) declared by the Govt; there is no problem of pricing. But if the market prices collapse due to excessive production or other reasons, the farmers have to be helped through remunerative minimum viable support prices of the Govt.

The XI plan document prepared by the Maharashtra State Planning Board has stated that, “Prices of agricultural produce should be based on the cost production and the proportion of rural credit should be enhanced taking into account the actual cost of cultivation of the produce.

Adoption of New Technology and Raising Productivity of Crops: To make the cultivation of crops remunerative in a backward region like Marathwada, adoption of new technology by the farming community is the only solution. For adoption of new technology however enhanced amount of investment (credit) has to be supplied by the banking sector (see table )

Table shows the cost – A per hectare by adopting existing practices, while col.2, shows cost of cultivation per hectare if Marathwada Agriculture University Technology is adopted by the farmers. The productivity, per hectare increase between 150% to 330% in various crops. But it also requires addition investment as shown in the table 6.1

Hence, it is suggested that to make farming profitable in a backward area like Beed and other districts, adoption of new technology on mass scale is the solution to get through vicious circle of low productivity and low level of incomes.

I) FINANCING THE NEW TECHNOLOGY: For meeting the additional cost of cultivation due to adoption of new technology by the cultivators, Financial Inclusion Technology Fund has been created with a corpus of Rs. 200 crore, with initial contribution by Central Govt ; RBI; and NABARD. The State Govt. may take advantage of this fund, to enhance the productivity of crops in agriculturally backward district in the State. (see PLP2015-16 Beed District, NABARD, P12)

6.4 VISION : Our vision of the distract is that in the next ten years i) It should be doubling its production from agriculture and allied activities;

ii) It should have — — a) Modern physical infrastructure; b) Modern social and institutional infrastructure; c) Healthy and sustainable environment; and d) Full employment; and

iii) It should be free of _ a) Poverty; b) Illiteracy and ignorance; c) Social disparities; and d) Gender disparities,

For actualizing this vision, the C-DAP attempts to explore possible ways of better utilization of natural, physical and human resources. It attempts to discover and locate latent potentials of growth and development and is making proposals for activating human energies and social organizations for their full utilization.

C-DAP proposals for reforms and strengthening of the extension agencies should help inform the farmers of the latest technologies and adequately motivate them to diligently work for their own advancement.

The reforms and strengthening of the implementation agencies in the district are of crucial importance. The best policies and programmes fail because of poor governance and shortcomings in implementation. An innovative re-organization to provide missing coordination links within the different wings and departments involved with implementation is absolutely necessary. It is also imperative to set up reasonable working relationships with Pnchayat Raj Bodies, NGO's and Public Private Partnerships,. If the government is serious about transformation of rural economy and rural society through massive programmes like RKVY it must take early steps to provide for a strong inspired implementing agency to lead that 411 movement in the district and to get results.

This C-DAP has recommended several strategies for various sub-sectors to overcome the reasons of backwardness and to accomplish the vision stated above. Details like rationale behind them, action plans with physical targets, financial requirements and outcomes, and implementing schedules will be found in the related chapters. Action plans have been formulated so that their implementation will make a great impact on the agricultural growth and development of the district. It is worthwhile to emphasize that every element of action plan under each strategy positively contributes to the desired results. Most elements will be simultaneously in operation and will have additive effects on outcomes of each other. That add-on effect would lead to still higher growth.

6.5 IMPROVED TECHNOLOGY DISSEMINATION CO -ORDINATION OF TEACHI NG, RESEARCH AND EXTENSI ON INSTITUTIONS

RATIONALE : People's aspiration about agricultural development in the district is improving the economic viability of farming and enhancing the livelihood security. Increasing the net income of the fanner is only possible by enhancing the productivity, profitability and stability of overall agricultural production on sustained basis. The National Agriculture Policy 2000, National Farmers Commission and 12th five year plan approach paper 2012 targeted 4% growth in agriculture and allied sector. As more than 70% of the population derives its livelihood from agriculture and allied sectors and the solution to eradicate poverty lies in the development and growth of this important sector of economy, National Development Council (NDC) 2012, reaffirmed to achieve 4 per cent annual growth in agricultural sector during the 12th plan, NDC has directed the state Govts to formulate comprehensive District Agriculture Plan (C-DAP) for the holistic development of agriculture and allied sectors in the district to ensure that farming becomes more viable and economic conditions of farmers especially that of the small and marginal segment, is improved on a sustainable basis. There is huge knowledge deficit in agriculture and allied sectors. Agricultural extension and support services system therefore, have to play a key role in effective dissemination and use of available improved agricultural technology. Infact, credible and quality extension services would be one of the major drivers for high and inclusive growth in agriculture and allied sector. The accepted frame work of Agricultural extension system at district level for technology delivery and dissemination is presented in Fig- 1. It consists of network of Institutions and groups which includes Zonal Agri. Res. Stations (ZARS)/ Sub-Res. Stations, K.VK, Line departments, private and non-Govt. (NG's orgamza":ons and farmers groups (FiGs., SHGs) and individuals. The district extension network must develop partnership, complementary" and synergy among them TO bring in the continuity of various supplies arid services and market on one side and technology development, delivery and dissemination on the other side. In this Basic District Level Interactive Extension Model (BDIEM), Agri. Technology Management Agency ATMA assumes utmost position in designing appropriate mechanisms and linkages basically required in the extension system at district, block and village level for technology transfer with functional process interventions.

In order to facilitate the effective functioning of ATMA, following action points are suggested.

SUGGESTED ACTION POINTS

• Organisational arrangement and operational modalities at district, block and village (field) level need to be properly strengthened to create integrated (single window) extension system.

• ATMA should strive hard for greater coordination among different players for effective implementation of extension Programmes,

• Orientation, sensitization and capacity building of extension functionaries of key line departments, public/private organizations and farmer's interest/self help groups need to be tailor-made for effective functioning of various arms of ATMA like AMC, FIAC, BTT, FAC etc. • Members of village Panchayat, village level farmers groups, commodity groups, village level role model farmers be trained and involved in preparing block level extension plan and its implementation.

• Project-Director, ATMA be an independent senior officer of the rank of joint director of Agriculture to effectively lead and co-ordinate a multi- disciplinary team of senior officers from various key line departments as members of AMC,

• Office in charge (OIC) at block level to provide effective administrative supervision under the auspices of FIAC to be of the rank of Deputy Director of Agriculture.

• It is proposed to delink input supply arrangements, seed and soil testing etc from the primary responsibility of providing extension services.

• Public investment through ATMA need to enhance for training and capacity building of grass root level partners in public/private extension system.

• District and block level officials of key line department should regularly and judiciously participate in SAC of KVK and ZREAC of SAU for better interface.

• ATMA should strive hard in converging all the extension efforts and pooling all resources, infrastructure and expertise available at various institutions, in the district network to develop real time integrated farming system model of extension service delivery to bring breakthrough in development and growth of agriculture and allied sector.

Krishi Vigyan Kendra: As technology hub and light house of the district for farmers, KVK must act as link between technology generation system of the ZRS/SAU and extension system in the district.

 KVK must strive hard for continuous flow of knowledge, techniques and technologies of research institutes and SAU to various stakeholders in the district extension system and researchable feed backs from extension system to ZRS/SAU to minimize the time lag between generation of technology and its awareness and adoption.  KVK must regularly participate in GB and AMC meetings of ATMA and monthly district workshops and ZREAC conducted by the ZRS/SAU.  KVK must plan and implement their programmes as per the needs of district based on the SREP.  KVK should facilitate capacity building of various extension functionaries of the district both public and private /NGOS through need based effective trainings.  The context and methodology of trainings and the trainers and trainees must be periodically evaluated for suitable modifications to ensure effective training programmes.  KVK should bestow their attention for developing and maintaining model demonstration farms /units, effective conduct of OFTs and FLD's by involving all line departments, NGO's etc for large scale dissemination and adoption of improved technologies.  Being a specialized institution at the district level, the KVK has to serve as a Light house for farmers who look forward for something new, something novel and something innovative to add value to their agriculture in meeting aspirations.

ZRS/SAU:  District Extension Education centers with a team of subject matter specialists be established by the SAU with necessary infrastructure for specialized Training and capacity building of District Extension staff and farmers/change agents and diagnostic and farm advisory services.

 Mobile crop/soil health clinics be established for diagnostic team visits for on spoit solution to the problems of the farmers.

ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE OF AGRICULTURE

A FRAMEWORK FOR TECHNOLOGY DEVELOPMENT AND DELIVERY SYSTEM

6.6 IMPLEMENTING CDAP:

I RAISING PRODUCTIVITY AND PRODUCTION: The first key objective of CDAP is raising productivity and production of all crops and all other allied activities of every farmer by adopting modern farming technologies and best practices. Eight critical areas and objectives for accomplishing this objective are as follows:- i) A network of block-wise soil testing laboratories with an upgraded district H.Q. laboratory along with setting up, through the SHGs of asset poor and asset less farmers, local agro-services for drawing soil samples, reaching these to the laboratories, getting scientific advice (cards) for the farmers and helping them in buying and putting the advised inputs for preservation or enrichment of their soils. ii) Increasing use of modernized tools, implements and farm machines iii) Increasing areas of high value crops including rainfed or irrigated horticulture. iv) Adoption of best practices, modern technologies and inputs for raising productivity of all crops and allied activities motivated and supported by a caring and technologically competent extension agency. v) Intensive effort on training of farmers and demonstrations preceded by equally intensive effort on training and technological up-gradation of trainers and all extension workers. vi) Each farmer or each farm should have at least one dug well or a farm pond with micro irrigation system installed for optimally using his rainwater or ground water resources. vii) Local sector has to develop new M.I. Schemes, do good repairs and maintenance of the existing M.I. Schemes and restore those in disrepair so that huge investments made in the past are brought back to gainful use. viii) Ensuring adequate and timely suppliles of pure quality seeds, fertilizers, pesticides and other inputs.

The State Agriculture department and the Zilla Parishad have been traditionally engaged in all the activities described above though without outstanding results. They are, however, the most appropriate agencies to lift up all those activities to a higher pitch needed to accomplish the first key objective. Their extension wings need to be strengthened so that they carry out the mission more vigorously and get results.

II. SHGS OF ASSET POOR AND ASSET LESS FARMERS: The second key objective is to promote self help groups (SHGs) of asset poor and assetless farmers and with training, and promotional and motivational support as well as financial back up to empower them to transform themselves as providers of critically useful agro services to the village community and thus contribute to the rejuvenation of agriculture of the village including their own presently non-viable farms.

The DRDA has been promoting SHGs for some years now thought mostly of women. It has been set up to implement antipoverty schemes. DRDA is, therefore, the most appropriate agency for promoting SHGs of asset poor and asset less farmers, their training and initiation of several possible agro services and micro-enterprises through those SHGs with the object of bringing those poor farmers out of poverty. DRDA has to do that promotional activity more vigorously and in a result oriented manner. DRDA has to be suitably strengthened for that purpose.

III. ASSOCIATION FOR PROGRESSIVE FARMING : The third key objective is the promotion and formation of an Association For Progressive Farming (AFPF) separately for each block with village-wise branches and a district-wise federation. These associations will constitute the peoples’ participatory compliment to the CDAP mission. It has a great potential of future development and should be supported and encouraged to gradually take over and run the CDAP mission as its own enterprise.

When the Association gets a clear sense of its purpose and the prospect of lifting up the agriculture economy of the district to higher and higher levels, the individual progressive farmers and other social workers will be willingly making important contributions. When they feel that they can improve the society in which they are living through their participation through the Association For Progressive Farming, they will certainly bring vigor and enthusiasm to their roles and get positive results. The AFPF, therefore has a tremendous potential of mobilizing people’s energies for growth and development.

On the lines of public private partnership, the AFPF may, in future be taking up watershed development projects, composting projects for utilizing solid waste and sweepings of cities, towns and bigger villages, setting up soil testing laboratories and/ or operating them, organizing viable network of agro-processing units and endless number of other creative activities for supporting and caring for the farmers in general and the poor among them in particular.

The AFPF is not envisaged as a mass organization with thousands of members. At the block level it is envisaged as an NGO or voluntary organization with a band of about fifty active, committed and progressive farmers with orientation to science and social service.

At the village level about ten progressive farmers inclined to social causes would do. Their commitments to the CDAP cause will get firmed up through the work they do and the potential they would find.

The AFPF should be developed based on local perceptions of rural development and talents available. The promoters should, however, keep the successful models of Jazira of SUDAN, vicos of Peru, comila of Bangladesh and particularly the Joint Commission on Rural Reconstruction (JCRR) of Taiwan and their numerous present day successor NGOs working in India and all over the world.

The promotional work may have to be done mainly by the department of Agriculture and specially by the Senior Officers in the district. The Collector and ATMA should take initiatives, assemble well known Social Workers in the district and build up the blockwise associations to a working status in the first three months. Names better approved locally than AFPF may be allowed. A sort of competition should be encouraged for work and results among the various blockwise associations. Best work should be suitably recognized and rewarded by the government year after year.

The department of agriculture and/or ATMA may have to provide funds to the AFPFs for their initial steps until they build up their own resources through membership fees, donations or works. Institutional Membership of AFPFs should be open to large co-operative ventures, societies, market committee’s, banks, NGOs/V.Os and local bodies.

IV STRENGTHENING OF THE EXISTING ORGANIZATION STRUCTURES: In our opinion ATMA presently chaired by the Collector of the district should be designated as the Chief Authority for implementing the CDAP. It is necessary to provide adequate support to the Collector so that ATMA functions effectively. We propose;

1) A senior S.A.O. (full time) as Secretary and Executive Officer of ATMA; 2) A Senior B.D.O. (full time) to secure co-ordination with Panchayat Raj Institutions; promotional work of AFPFs 3) A publicity Officer to continuously work with the media for the CDAP mission and organizing educative programmes, conferences, workshops etc. preparing write up and publicity material 4) Customary staffing assistance to the above three officers. A block annual grant of 10 lakhs for promotional work/rewards etc. 5) A vehicle (like a jeep) for the officers touring in rural areas.

ZILLA PARISHAD : One Senior BDO to work as addl. Dy. CEO to build up vigorous activities at the Z.P. Panchayat Samiti and Gram Panchayat levels in support of C-DAP programmes and specially those of development of M.I. schemes and assured adequate and timely supplies of pure quality inputs like seeds, fertilizers, pesticides etc.

DRDA ; i) Two Assistant Project Officers in the office of Project Director for the work of promoting SHGs of asset poor and assetless farmers and setting them to designed agro services and micro-agro enterprises. ii) One additional APO for each block to assist the work of SHGs of poor farmers. iii) Customary staffing assistance to the new APO/s.

PANCHAYAT SAMITIES: Block level agricultural officer extensions should be of at least class II rank.

AGRICULTURE DEPARTMENT: Strengthening of the department of Agriculture is inevitable. It is learnt that it already has a huge staff in the district. But restructuring to keep in tune with improving technologies, growing awareness among the farmers and developing Panchayat raj institutions is necessary. All agricultural production and activities to be promoted or motivated are is private sector. Extraordinary skills of communication are required to be effective in this situation. The farmers in general have, nowadays, exposure to both print and electronic media extension programmes for them need to be redesigned now both for larger technological content and an inspiring motivational appeal.

In the meantime, the department itself seems to be deliberating upon restructuring proposals. Without any reference to those matters, we are proposing following measures of strengthening required for effective implementation of CDAP.

i) A new full time Senior SAO as Secretary and CEO of ATMA

ii) a) All Taluka level Agricultural officers should be in class I and designated as Deputy Directors. b) Each Dy. Director would also be working as ex-officio Secretary and Executive officer of the proposed Association for progressive farming. C) Each Deputy Director should be provided a jeep and a driver.

iii) Each Agricultural Polyclinic should have an Agriculture Officer in class II to be in charge. New polyclinics should be opened for new talukas which do not have them now. These clinics should grow as centers of all CDAP activities, Farmers meetings, training and demonstrations. They should be undertaking activities supporting the farmers like manufacture; storage and sale on a no profit no loss basis of composting, vermi culture, seeds, fertilizers, pesticides, tools etc.

This comprehensive district Agriculture plan C-DAP, has been prepared under the guidelines of the RKVY. It deals with all these issues comprehensively. It attempts to provide solutions to overcome several impediments which are presently obstructing the development process. It presents scores of actionable projects, schemes, and programmes which, if implemented properly will help the district to shed out its agricultural backwardness and to take off on a fast growth track of much higher than 4% per annum growth of agricultural production.

As a result of implementation of the CDAP all sectors are expected to have a substantial addition to the gross production in the district.

The proposals of C-DAP will provide employment to thousands of unemployed or partly employed people, raise standards of living in rural areas, reduce poverty and distress, and specially reach the benefits of growth and development to the thousands of small and marginal farmers who are mostly in distress today because of the non-viability of their farms and several other consequential handicaps. Naturally, this last group of small and marginal farmers and their handicaps are the focus of attention of many C-DAP proposals.

Earnest implementation of all C-DAP projects, schemes and programmes will result in simultaneous increments in productivity of each crop and each of the allied activities, in each farm in each village, and in each block in the district. Combined with improvements in credit, marketing. Employment and other infrastructure, the overall growth is bound to have a multiplier effect. It should be certainly possible to raise farm production and farmer incomes at least by 50% over a medium term of five years. That should mean the beginning of the Second Green Revolution. The momentum generated, the self confidence gained by the farmers in the process and the continuing upgrading of agro- technologies will continue to lift the district economy to higher and higher levels in future. Outcomes of all the efforts will remain in the farmer's hands. No one else will claim any share or tax from them. Even the access to credit will be much easier and cheaper than what it has been during the past several decades. Accomplishment of these C-DAP will thus lead to the most desired well- being of the people of the district.

The land utilization statistics of a district explains the use of the land resources for various purposes. Table – 2 indicates the land utilization statistics of Beed district, which is the average of the last 3 years.

1. Forest area: At the district level, the total area under forest is only 22975 Ha. (2.14%) of the total geographical area of the district. At the taluka level, the percent of the forest area is only 0.39% in Majalgaon, while it is highest at 9.98% in Wadwani taluka. The proportion of forest area at the state level is of maintaining of ecological of environmental balance; the area under forest is Beed district need to be improved with priority in the district.

CURRENT AND OTHER FOLLOW LAND: At the district level, the current fallows from 12.76% and other fallows from 3.49% of total geographical area of the Beed district taluka - wise proportion of fallow lands are shown in table – 2.2.

III. NET AND GROSS CROPPED AREA:- At the district level, the total net shown area is 876000 hectares forming about 84% of the total geographical area of the district. At the taluka level the proportion of net shown area to total geographical area of each taluka is shown in table - 2.2. It is highest (102.14%) in Ashti taluka. While it is lowest (71.28%) in Ashti taluka. It is fairly high in other talukas.

IV. CROPPING INTENSITY: Cropping intensity explains the efficient use of available land resource in given region. It depend upon the nature of the soils, rainfall and irrigation facilities. Hence, table 2.2 shows data on gross cropped are of each taluka which explains the intensity of cropping. At the district level the intensity of cropping is 110.13% which is reasonable. V. At the taluka level, it is highest (155%) in Majalgaon, while it is lowest 87.13 in Ambejogai taluka.

V. CULTIVABLE WASTE: The area under cultivable waste land to geographical area is (37332) 0.05%. In almost all talukas, there is cultivable waste land available. In fact this land could be used to expand the forest area in the district through the social forestry programmes. For income generation such land could be used for the plantation of medical plants or jatrofa. Such programmes could be linked to the National Employment Guarantee schemes of the central Govt. creating employment for the unskilled labors in the district.

VI. LAND UNDER NON - AGRICULTURE USE: At the district level, the proportion of land put to non-Agriculture use is 1.82% of the geographical area of the district. With increasing levels of urbanization and industry. Non Agriculture use is likely to increase in the years to come. At present Beed district has a very low level of urbanization when compared is the state average 43%

The marginal farmers group formed 51.40% of total, but they operated only 19.79% of total land another group of small farmers (1.00 to 2.00) formed 30.06% of total land holders while they operated 32.08% of land. While other groups formed lower percentage of land holders but they operated high percentage or land. Hence, it may be concluded that land distribution in Beed district is stewed in favor of large farmers. More land reform measures as consolidation of land holdings is necessary to make farming viable proposition.

Table shows the classification of Main and Marginal workers in Beed District.

1. There are a total number of 1154708 workers in Beed District; of which 1004728 persons (87%) are Main workers, while 1154708 persons (13%) are Marginal workers. 2. Cultivators formed largest category (50.33%) or 581109 persons. 3. Agricultural workers, 327830 (28.39) persons formed second largest category of workers. 4. Manufacturing, Service, Repairs & Household Industry is smallest category (1.39%) with 16800 persons. This indicates a very weak industrial base of the district. 5. Other workers constituted 19.83% (or 228969 persons) of total workers.

Extent of Un-employment in Beed District:

The District Employment Exchanges Register the names of the un- employed job-seekers in the district, there were a total number of 62879 job seekers in Beed District at the year 2013-14. (see Table No. 8)

During, the year 2013-14, the Employment Exchange could fill only 0 posts. Hence, the proportion who could obtain jobs to total un-employed is negligible.

Hence, the rate of un-employment is quite high and needs to be reduced through following measures. (a) Skill Development Programmes / Training Programmes have to be organized on large scales. Most of the educated unemployed in rural areas lack skills required by the industrial sector. For example, according to a Planning Commission Study, there are only 5% of the workers in the age- group of 20-24, who have skills. This proportion needs to be increased.

(b) The rural unemployed could be absorbed in the expanding non-farm sector, rural industries in Beed district. Shifting of the burden of population and labour force from agriculture to non-farm sector of the district economy is one of the Strategies of the XII Five year Plan (2012 - 2017)

2.2.6 DISTRICT INCOME:

Govt. of Maharashtra has been publishing Gross and Net- District Domestic Products of all districts in the State of Maharashtra from time to time. Table No. 9 shows sector wise income (gross) of Beed district for the year 2010-11, at current (latest year prices). It is obvious from this table that the proposition of primary sector income in the total income of the district is very high at 35%. On the other hand, the proportion of secondary sector income to total income is only 15% in Beed. This explains the weakness of the industrial sector of Beed district. The tertiary sector contributes 50% to the district income of Beed district.

The proportion of rural population of Beed district to total population is 82%, while the urban population is just 18% according to the census report of 2012. Hence, 82% of the rural population is dependent on primary sector, which produces about 55% of district income. This clearly explains a heavy dependence of rural population on agriculture & allied activities. This large proportion of population & labour force needs to be diverted to other non-farm activities in this district, through larger investments. This strategy has to be followed for a fairly long period of time.

(I) PER CAPITA INCOME: The per capita income of a region reflects upon the standard of living of the common people residing in that region. The per capita income of Beed district, in 2011-12, at current prices, was observed to be Rs. 55139/- as against the state average of Rs. 95339/-. In other words, the per capita income of Beed district is about 57.9% of state per capita income, indicating a low standard of living of the masses in Beed district.

(II) HUMAN DEVELOPMENT INDEX: Recently, the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) has evolved a new concept of Human Development Index (HDI), which is much more comprehensive than the per capita income. The HDI is the average value of three major variables, viz. (1) per capita income ii) Education and, iii) Health. The HDI value expresses the quality of life of the common people in a region. The Govt. of Maharashtra has published data relating to the HDI values of all the 35 districts in the state. According to this report, Beed district has HDI value of only 0.47 and it ranks 18th among 35 districts. The average HDI value for the state is 0.58. occupies bottom position with the HDI value of 0.21, while Mumbai tops the list with the HDI value of 1.0.

Recently, the Govt. of Maharashtra has established “Maharashtra Human Development Mission” with a view to improve the HDI values of those districts which are at the bottom of the table.

(III) Human Poverty Index: (HPI1) Human Poverty Index also indicates the quality of life of the common people in a given region. L It includes variables like, percentage of population expected to survive upto the age of 40; rate of illiteracy; percentage of population served with safe drinking water and percentage of malnourished children. i) The value of HPI for Beed district was estimated at 21.21% and ranked 24th among 30 districts in the state. The state HPI value was 16.22% (on 0-100 scale). This amply proves a very low quality of Human Development in Beed district. This needs to be improved urgently.

Intra-District Growth Differentials in Beed District: Intra-District or Inter-taluka growth differentials are examined in this section with reference to differences in productivity of crops in each taluka with the productivity at the district level. Table No. 10 shows, the productivity of major crops at the district level and the productivity of the same crop at the taluka level. By assuming the productivity of each crop at district level to be 100, we have calculated the productivity index of each crop at each taluka level. For example, the productivity of Kh. Jowar at district level is 1258 kg per ha; (or 100), but the productivity of Kh. Jowar in Ambejogai taluka is 1352 kg per hectare; hence the productivity index would be 107.47 for Ambejogai. It is highest in Parli (126.39). (See Table No. 10).

COMPOSITE INDEX: By taking the average index of all crops in each taluka, the composite index is prepared as shown in Table no. 10. All talukas above the district average (100) may be considered to perform well; while those below 100 should be considered relatively with slow growth. Those talukas which are above 100 are: (i) Kej (143.09), (ii) Parali (122.62), (iii) Dharur (123.40), (iv) Shirur (111.74), (and (v) Ambajogai (100.26).

Those talukas, which have average index below 100 are:- (i) Georai (96.19), (ii) Beed (94.29), (iii) Majalgaon (92.63), (iv) Ashti (70.26), (V) Patoda (81.84) and (vi) Wadwani (98.05).

2.3 VISION:

I OUR VISION OF THE DISTRICT IS THAT IN THE NEXT TEN YEARS: i) It should be doubling its production from agriculture and allied activities; ii) It should have - a) Modern physical infrastructure; b) Modern social and institutional infrastructure; c) Healthy and sustainable environment; and d) Full employment; and iii) It should be free of _ a) Poverty; b) Illiteracy and ignorance; c) Social disparities; and d) Gender disparities.

II OUR TEN YEAR VISION FOR THE FARMERS OF THE DISTRICT IS THAT ALL OF THEM SHOULD

i) Have adopted modern farming technologies and best practices and should be reaching achievement of maximum yields and optimum agriculture production from their farms, water and other resources; ii) Have at least one well or one farm pond each fitted with micro irrigation system and should be optimally utilizing their rain water and ground water resources;

iii) Have had soils testing of their lands done and received and acted upon scientific advice from experts and used inputs for preservation and enrichment of their soils; iv) Be getting adequate, timely, and quality pure supplies of seeds, fertilizers, pesticides and other inputs; v) Have taken to using modernized tools and implements, reduced drudgery of manual work and have taken to farm mechanization to overcome shortage of hired labour; vi) Have taken to growing higher value crops and specially to irrigated ordained horticulture; vii) Have good credit and marketing facilities and supporting Infrastructure like all weather connectivity, transport and market intelligence; and viii) Have caring and technologically competent extension workers willing to rush advice and help at the shortest notice of needs, ix) We also envision formation of an Associations For Progressive Farming(AFPFS) separately for each bloc with village wise branches and a federation for the district to positively support spreading of modem technologies to all classes of farmers and generally to support and oversee implementation of CDAP programmes at the Panchyat Samiti and Gram Panchayat levels. PPFs will take special care to ensure total coverage of all the farmers and that no farmer is left out.

III - OUR TEN YEAR VISION SPECIALLY FOR THE ASSET POOR AND ASSET LESS FARMERS IS THAT ALL OF THEM : a. Have joined self help groups (SHGs) specially promoted for them; b. Through those SHGs and with training, financial and backup promotional

support from DRDAS Z.P. Gram Panchayat, Panchayat samiti, Progressive Fanning Society, Banks and the Agriculture department get themselves transformed into capable providers of critical services to agriculture of the village; c. with those critical agro services they have started contributing to the rejuvenation of agriculture of the village including their own presently non- viable small farms; d. With their non-viable farms back in progressive production line and with the additional employment and incomes they get from the agro services they are providing, most of them have come out of poverty; e. At least 20% out of them have made more progress and have setup their own micro - agro enterprises; and f. All of them have gained self confidence for making more progress in future and are all living with dignity and in well being.

For actualizing this vision, the C- DAP attempts to explore possible ways of better utilization of natural, physical and human resources. It attempts to discover and locate latest potentials of growth and development and is making proposals for activating human energies and social organizations for their full utilization.

C -DAP proposals for reforms and strengthening of the extension agencies should help inform the farmers of the latest technologies and adequately motivate them to diligently work for their own advancement.

The reforms and strengthening of the implementation agencies in the district are of crucial importance. The best policies and programmes fail because of poor governance and shortcomings in implementation. An innovative re-organization to provide missing coordination links within the necessary. It is also imperative to set up reasonable working relationships with Panchayat Raj Bodies, NGO's and Public Private Partnerships,. If the government is serious about transformation of rural economy and rural society-through massive programmes like RKVY it must take early steps to provide for a strong inspired implementing agency to lead that movement in the district and to get results. This C-DAP has recommended several strategies for various sub-sectors to overcome the reasons of backwardness and to accomplish the vision stated In para above. Details like rationale behind them, action plans with physical targets, financial requirements and outcomes, and implementing schedules will be found in the related chapters. Action plans have beers formulated so that their implementation will make a great impact on the agricultural growth and development of the district. 11 is worthwhile to emphasize that every element of action plan under each strategy positively contributes to the desired results. Most elements will be simultaneously in operation and will have additive effects on outcomes of each other. That add-on effect would lead to still higher growth.

C-DAP targets are realistic and not difficult to achieve. Individual mediocrities and indifference and departmental egos have, however, halted .many fast trains in the past. Top bosses should be alert. The above weaknesses and many more have to be overcome. Enthusiasm for a good work has to be sustained at all official and non-official levels.

The C-DAP should be implemented in a mission mode. Print & electronic media will help to motivate people for more hard work and more positive roles. Every farmer (large or small), every Gram Panchayat, every NGO or informal group or committee should be a doer (Karia), earnest and fired by the spirit of the C-DAP. The opportunity should not be lost. C-DAP throw a challenge to them. Everyone is on trial and has to contribute his utmost towards the successful accomplishment of the mission.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

E.S. 1. INTRODUCTION : This comprehensive district agricultural plan (C-DAP ): a) Assesses the available natural physical and human resources in the district and possibilities of their fuller or better utilization for acceleration in growth with more scientific and technological methods and purposive investments; b) Identifies the social, infrastructural, agronomical, and governance weaknesses which have so long impeded the processes of growth and development and led to backwardness, lower levels of living and poverty; c) Recommends strategies and scores of practicable projects, schemes and programmes for overcoming the weaknesses along with estimates of financial out lays required and the outcomes expected from them; and d) Suggests appropriate agencies for implementing the various projects, schemes and programmes along with the proposals for strengthening them and for raising their capabilities to match the requirements of effective implementation.

This (C - DAP) describes what the district can achieve over a medium term of four years and how it should work to achieve it. The C - DAP has been prepared with the following objectives:- 1) To continuously raise productivity, production, employment and income in agriculture and allied activities through optimal utilization of natural and human resources; 2) To strengthen, reorganize or newly build up physical infrastructure and institutions to effectively help adopt and operate modern technologies and practices to provide further impetus to agricultural growth and rural Development; 3) To provide food security and to eliminate hunger; 4) To focus all activities in support of small and marginal farmers, poor and disadvantaged people with a view to secure social justice and to reduce poverty and distress; 5) To continuously improve economic well being and quality of life of all stake holders in the district; and 6) To help the district to take off on a faster track of growth and sustainable development. Along with crops and their productivities, the C-DAP deals with all the infrastructural and allied activities like soil health and conservation, optimal utilization of land and water resources, adequacy and purity of inputs, credit, marketing, livestock, dairying, poultry, fisheries, sericulture, agro-processing, agro services and strengthening of research, education and extension services, for a continuing technological up-gradation of the entire farming system. These goals and the strategies (meaning courses of action) to achieve them have been discussed in the CDAP for different sectors and services supporting them. Beed district is located in Marathwada region of Maharashtra with the rainfall range of 600 to 700 mm, which is contributed by south-west and north-east monsoons. Beed District is located between 18.26 to 19.26 North latitude and 74.54 to 76.57 East longitudes. It is bound by Aurangabad and Jalna Districts to the North; by Parbhani and Latur to the East; by Osmanabad and Amednagar Districts to the South; and by to the West. Balaghat Hill ranges run through the district; these hill ranges are about 2000 to 2200 feet above the sea level. The Northern part of the district falls under the Godavari Valley, while the Southern part falls under the Manjra river valley. The total geographical area of the district is 10015 sq.kms; which form 0.44% of the total geographical area of the State of Maharastra of this total area 235 sq.km (2.20%) is urban area, while 10380 (97.8%) is rural area. Medium black soils are predominant in the district, occupying 53% of the cultivated area while light soils occupying 24% and heavy soils occupying 23% area is and are spread over the erstwhile taluks of Ashti, Patoda, Shirur, Georai, Majalgaon, Beed, Wadwani, Dharur, Kej, Parali and Ambajogai. There are 1403 revenue villages in Beed district, out of which 6 were un- inhabited. The remaining 1387 revenue villages are organized in to 1024 gram panchayats. The total population of the district is 25.85 lakh. The male– female sex ratio is 1:0.92. Beed and Georai Talukas lead others in population. The lowest population is noted in case of Wadwani Taluka, followed by Dharur and Shirur Taluka. The population of the scheduled castes forms 13.6% of the total population in the Beed district. The scheduled tribes’ population forms a small percentage of 1.3%. Beed district is endowed mainly with medium and black soils, with the fertility is medium. The marginal farms account for 51.4% of the total holdings in the district. But, their share in land area is only 19.79%. Small farmers have a share of 30.1% of the total holdings. But their share in land area is 32.1%. The semi medium farmers who own between two and five hectares constitute 16.3% of the holdings but their share in land area is about twice that at 35.2%. Medium farms represent only 2.02% of the holdings but their share in land area is as high as 9.8%. Large farms have a share of only 0.23%, but they account for as much as 3.1% of the total land area. The average size of holding in the district is 1.32 ha. The average rainfall of the district is 700 mm. 65% of the rainfall is contributed by south- west monsoon, 30% of the rainfall is from north-east monsoon and the rest as summer showers. 67% of the cultivable land is under rain fed conditions and 33% of the area is under irrigation, mainly by Jaikwadi, Majalgao, Dhanegaon balancing reservoir, tanks, tube wells and wells and bore wells and filter points. Although Beed district is one of the drought prone districts of Marathwada region, the status of agriculture and allied enterprises is turning for the better in the recent years due to several completed and ongoing irrigation projects. The average normal rainfall of Beed district is 700 mm. It is however, showing an fluctuating trend in the recent years. Some of the deep soils are able to support rabi crops like jowar, Bengal gram etc on stored moisture. Even the shallow black soils can support a good kharif crop if the distribution is reasonably good. About 16.53% of the cultivated area receives irrigation facilities from canals, tanks, wells /bore wells. The farmers are quite resilient and have the ability to withstand adverse weather conditions. The major crops in the district are bajra, red gram, cotton, bengal gram and jawar. The yields of these crops are medium although prone to vagaries of monsoon. Cows and buffaloes are the important sources of milk production. There are constant efforts to upgrade the genetic stock of the animals. Establishment of milk procurement centers and bulk milk cooling units are contributing to the development of dairy industry in the district. Both sheep and goat are reared in large numbers and they have a significant contribution to the income. Sericulture has good prospects. With more reservoirs that are coming up on several rivers, fish culture can also thrive well both in reservoirs as well as in tanks. The district has a major custard apple research station at Ambajogai and Krishi Vignan Kendra at Ambajogai and Khamgaon. They provide the necessary technological back stopping for agriculture and allied sectors. Beed district is one of the drought prone district in the region. The rainfall is variable between locations within the same season. During the last three years, one were sub-normal, one was normal and the one was above normal in terms of rainfall. With low and uncertain rainfall, the performance of rain fed crops is rather poor, particularly in the red soil areas. Even the rivers and other irrigation sources in the district are rain fed. In a bad year, both the rain fed as well as irrigated crops do suffer. More than 50 per cent of the soils are light in nature and more than two-third of the cropped area is rain fed. The district suffers from drought quite frequently. Although the number of livestock is big, the quality of the livestock is quite poor. The cattle do not yield much milk, while the buffaloes give an average milk yield of two to three liters per day. The shortage of water has limited the progress of both horticulture and sericulture. Most of the village tanks are short season tanks, which are not conducive for commercial fish production. The farmers are quite poor and they lack in investment capacity. The average size of holding is about 1.32 ha. Many of the small and marginal farmers are unable to generate sufficient income from agriculture and are constantly looking at opportunities in other sectors and in far off places. It is creating labor scarcity and causing an increase in the wages. Due to high labor costs, agriculture is not profitable and many farmers in the marginal areas are planning to shift to plantations. The infrastructure is quite poor and literacy levels lag behind. There are several initiatives which bring new opportunities to the farmers in Beed district. The augmentation of irrigation sources will help the farmers to get higher yields. The land values are going up as a result of the general spiral in land prices. It provides an opportunity for those who want to quit farming and move to other sectors for their livelihood. People who made money from non-agricultural sectors are investing in lands for speculative purposes in general and out of genuine interest in farming in some cases. The new land owners have the capacity to invest in land development and improved technologies. This trend may augur well to the farming sector because of infusion of capital from new sources. The output prices, both of food and cash crops, are on the rise and they may alter the rate of return on investments significantly and provide new hope to the farmers. The demand for milk, meat, eggs, fruits and vegetables is increasing and the process of diversification in to these high value commodities is likely to intensify further. Farmers are taking up micro-irrigation in a big way which will help in increasing the water-use efficiency and in achieving enterprise diversification. The recent loan waiver program and the earlier Prime Minister’s relief package have freed small and marginal farmers from the bond of debt. They can avail fresh credit and invest it on their farms. The National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA) has brought work and income to agriculture labor households. The free power scheme has benefited the farmers very much. The product prices are likely to increase further and may make agriculture and allied enterprises more remunerative. The threats to agriculture and allied sectors come from many sources. Due to medium level of rainfall and predominance of light and medium soils, the agricultural enterprises are becoming riskier. The predictions of climate change point out to decrease in rainfall and increase in temperatures. Both these anticipated changes may further dent the viability of agriculture in the district. The labor wages are going up in real terms and after the implementation of NREGS, the working hours have reduced. Due to this increase in real wages without a commensurate increase in productivity, the agriculture tends to become less profitable. The loan waiver scheme has destroyed the credit discipline and farmers may not get access to credit both from institutional as well as non-institutional sources of credit. The increase in fuel prices may apply brakes on farm mechanization trend. The globalization of markets will put the farmers from advanced countries at an advantage because they are backed by huge subsidies from their governments. With in the country, farmers from irrigated areas are expected to do better due to heavy incidence of subsidies for irrigated crops. A predominantly rain fed district like Kadapa may find it an unequal battle to compete with the neighboring districts with higher irrigation coverage. Some of the internal weaknesses may get exacerbated by the external threats looming large on the agricultural sector in the district. After analyzing the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats faced by agricultural sector and after analyzing the yield gaps that can be recovered in the district, a comprehensive district agricultural plan was prepared with interventions in agriculture and allied sectors. The interventions in agricultural sector include measures such as supply of green manure seed, application of gypsum and supply of zinc sulphate for improving the soil health and fertility. The interventions suggested also included supply of farm equipment and establishment of custom hiring centers to help the farmers get over the problem of labor shortage. There were also proposals on supply of sprinkler sets and drip system for increasing water use efficiency, supporting Farmers’ Field Schools (FFS) and strengthening extension support by appointing agricultural officers, technology facilitators and model farmers, development of human resources through training etc. The total investments on all the interventions proposed in agriculture amounted to Rs. 18705 lakh. The proposed growth rate in the agricultural sector is 8.84 per cent per year. Horticultural sector which attained some growth in the recent years will be encouraged further by establishing new nurseries for producing quality planting material, establishment of new gardens, rejuvenation of the old and senile orchards, introducing new horticultural crops and multistory cropping systems, hybrid varieties of vegetables, loose flowers, provision of shade nets, plant protection equipment, horticultural tools, drip irrigation etc., organic farming, strengthening extension by appointing more technical personnel, capacity building of technical staff and farmers, integrated orchard management, provision of post-harvest infrastructure, grading and packing facilities etc., for the all round development of horticultural sector in the district. The total investments required for the development of horticultural sector over the next five years period is Rs. 15084 lakh and they are expected to put horticulture on a higher growth trajectory of 22.08 per cent per year. Sericulture in the district is still in growing phase. To give further boost to sericulture development in the district, a substantial investment of Rs. 882 lakh is planned over the next five years to sustain 58 per cent growth per year. The catalytic development program will be strengthened in all respects to give a further boost to mulberry cultivation and silk production. Beed district has substantial populations of livestock and small ruminants. It is proposed to induct a large number of improved milch animals and heifer calves to upgrade the quality of livestock. Universal coverage of all livestock and small ruminants by vaccination against foot and mouth disease in case of bovines and against the common diseases in case of small ruminants is planned to reduce the mortality and morbidity. Supply of feed to quality heifer calves, establishment of permanent fodder units, supply of chaff cutters, provision of mobile disease diagnostic laboratories and other measures required for the development of Animal Husbandry sector are planned with a total investment of Rs. 4803.25 lakh over the period of five years. The anticipated growth rate in the animal husbandry sector is expected to reach 73.52 per cent per year as a result of all the development investments planned. Similarly, fisheries sector will be developed through a set of initiatives for strengthening production and marketing of fish at a cost of Rs. 506 lakh over the next five years. These investments are expected to the fish production in the district over the next five years period.

PUBLIC PRIVATE PARTNERSHIPS THAT CAN BE ENVISAGED IN THE C-DAP: The Planning Commission has set a very high target for investment in infrastructure sector. The twelve Five year plan would be consequentially looking out for the possibilities of Public Private Partnerships (PPPs) to meet a part of the investment needs. The CDAP proposals also have a large element of investments in watershed development and minor irrigation. Both these types are small and widely scattered works spread all over the rural areas. Moreover, the individual beneficiaries can be identified for minor irrigation works like dug wells and farm ponds but not for watershed development. If, however, it is necessary to bring in more investments through the PPP route, taluka wise or village cluster wise lots of all the three types of works combined can be made for appropriate sizes of investment say 10, 25 or 50 crores. All aspects of tendering, contracting and other modalities may have to be handled by the department of Agriculture as the Chief Authority for implementing the CDAP. Implementing projects through the PPPs should, however, be more challenging than that under conventional practices. One advantage of PPPs should, obviously, be timely and speedy completion of projects enabling reaping benefits of the works relatively very fast. It is suggested that the implementation of CDAP projects should not, in any case, be tied up with EGS funds and the availability of local unemployed labour. Agriculture growth is more important and speedy implementation of CDAP will do much more for reducing unemployment and poverty and rural development. PPP pattern is likely to use machines and keep to the time schedules without which a part of soil work done under conventional methods and even in private sector goes waste because of delays or untimely rains. Another project for which PPP may be envisaged is setting up of eight taluka-wise soil testing laboratories, upgrading of the district H.Q. – Laboratory and operating the entire net work for five years. Other projects which may attract PPP are setting up and operating a large wheat flour mill and a plant for production of modern agricultural tools, implements and small machines and repairs to all machines. The CDAP has, however not proposed any out lays for this last group of agro industries. Besides, the investments in agriculture, horticulture, sericulture, animal husbandry and fisheries, substantial investments are also planned to establish the village markets and market information centers to cut down the marketing costs and improve the price realization by the farmers. Similarly, the development investments on irrigation, watershed development and poverty eradication programs will also be intensified. The Society for Elimination of Rural Poverty (SERP) has been allocated substantial resources for implementing community managed organic farming systems to reduce poverty and to avoid use of pesticides. The provision of production and development credit will keep pace with the requirements of agriculture and allied sectors. This district agricultural plan can bring dynamism to the district economy and raise the incomes of the rural people. It can make a big dent on the rural indebtedness and make the farmers optimistic to look forward for a fast pace of development and improvement in their living standards. The State level sanction committee of RKVY has allotted funds for some selected programs in agriculture, horticulture, animal husbandry, fisheries and SERP. It is hoped that the Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana (RKVY) will support other components of the Comprehensive District Agricultural Plan (CDAP) for Beed district fully. Since this district is one of the developing districts of Maharashtra state, such a support is justified both from the point of view of increasing production efficiency as well as from the angle of balanced regional development and poverty alleviation. The proposed investments in different sub-sectors of agriculture are summarized in the table below:

12 KVK Khamgaon 20.64

13 KVK Digholamba 239.50 Total 89147.02

The total investment required for RKVY in Beed district, during XII plan period is estimated at Rs89147.02 lakh. More than 10% of it was proposed for the development of field crops sector. Animal husbandry required about 5% of the total investment. The investment of horticulture accounted for about 17%. Investments for water conservation required about 41% of the investments. Sericulture, Social Forestry and Fisheries received about 1, 1and 1% of the total investment respectively.

Outcomes The proposals of C-DAP will provide employment to thousands of unemployed or partly employed people, raise standards of living in rural areas, reduce poverty and distress, and specially reach the benefits of growth and development to the thousands of small and marginal farmers who are mostly in distress today because of the non-viability of their farms and several other consequential handicaps. Naturally, this last group of small and marginal farmers and their handicaps are the focus of attention of many C-DAP proposals. Earnest implementation of all C-DAP projects, schemes and programmes will result in simultaneous increments in productivity of each crop and each of the allied activities, in each farm in each village, and in each block in the district. Combined with improvements in credit, marketing, employment and other infrastructure, the overall growth is bound to have a multiplier effect. It should be certainly possible to raise farm production and farmer incomes at least by 50% over a medium term of five years. That should mean the beginning of the Second Green Revolution. The momentum generated, the self confidence gained by the farmers in the process and the continuing upgrading of agro- technologies will continue to lift the district economy to higher and higher levels in future. Outcomes of all the efforts will remain in the farmer's hands. No one else will claim any share or tax from them. Even the access to credit will be much easier and cheaper than what it has been during the past several decades. Accomplishment of this C- DAP will thus lead to the most desired well-being of the people of the district.
