Each state has a chief executive who, supported by a core group of political leaders and civil servants, has devised and maintained a sustained commitment to programmes and institutional reforms ostensibly aimed at addressing the needs of poorer constituencies. The purpose of the study was to assess those political and institutional factors that assist in realising the promise of these innovations, as well as those factors that constrain the process of pro-poor change. This study consists of four components: two studies on Madhya Pradesh (one on agriculture and one on health); and two in Andhra Pradesh (one on agriculture and one on health). The design of the study has enabled the research team to draw conclusions on the basis of four axes of comparison: a) Between locations of differing types, but within the same state and implementing the same programme; b) Between programmes in the same sector, but operating in two different states. c) Between programmes in different sectors, whether within the same state or across states; This report is organised as follows: Part I reports on the agriculture-sector component of the study, which focuses on governance aspects of watershed development programmes. It examines the comparative dimensions ‘a’ and ‘b’ above. Part II reports on the health-sector component of the study, which focuses on programmes directed at improving the responsiveness of service-delivery. It too examines the comparative dimensions ‘a’ and ‘b’ above. Part III addresses the remaining comparative dimension, examining the differences between health and agriculture programmes in the two states (axis ‘c’). We conclude by assessing whether these differences have been more marked in one or another of the two states, drawing on general variables associated with their respective political systems. PART I: POLITICS, PARTIES AND WATERSHED DEVELOPMENT IN ANDHRA PRADESH AND MADHYA PRADESH I. a Background on the Study and on the Importance of Watershed Programmes There are several macro studies available of the politics of policymaking processes in these two states. These include thematic studies on public-expenditure management in Andhra 4 Pradesh1, on health, land reform and forestry initiatives in Madhya Pradesh2, and on the politics of policy making generally in both states.3 There also exist a number of micro studies of agriculture policy implementation in the two states. These focus primarily on an analysis of technical factors contributing to implementation bottlenecks4, and include the series produced under the sustainable livelihoods research programme coordinated by the ODI. The latter have been especially interested in the question of the best means of implementing these programmes, and have thus examined the relative performance of state-administered and NGO-run programmes.5 In order to avoid duplication, this component of the study has sought to fill a gap that rests somewhere between these two types of analysis. It maintains the focus on politics found in the macro studies, but examines these at micro levels through an analysis of policy implementation. To achieve this general objective, the study team sought to: § identify in detail the mechanisms through which anti-poverty programmes designed by generally responsive states get subverted in the process of implementation; § identify the political and institutional factors that allow these mechanisms of policy subversion to persist; § identify the factors which allow reasons why, in some instances, the degree of subversion to be reduced; This paper’s approach to the study of politics includes two key elements that are missing in existing studies, and which require close analysis if the dynamics of policy subversion are to be understood in sufficient detail. The study examines: § The role of political parties in the process of implementation. o While numerous studies deal with factors that could be considered political in the broad sense of the term – including such issues as conflict between different social groups, the dynamics of leadership, and difficulties of collective action – they have not entered into a detailed analysis of the role of partisan conflict at many levels in influencing outcome patterns. § The relationship between Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs) and Participatory Stakeholder Groups (PSGs): o While concerns about the lack of clarity about the respective roles of these two parallel bodies – one democratically elected as part of the formal representative institutions of governance, the other appointed in order to managed a specific 1 Foster et al, 2001 2 Joshi, 2003 3 Manor, 2001 4 Reddy, 2000 5 Farrington and Lobo, 1997; Knox, Swallow and Johnson, 2001 5 set of programmatic initiatives – there has been very little empirical, and yet theoretically informed, investigation into relations between them. Numerous state anti-poverty interventions in the agriculture sector have been undertaken throughout India, including such high-profile schemes as the Integrated Rural Development Programme. One of the most notable set of programmes in recent years has been those involving the creation and maintenance of low-tech irrigation infrastructure. While watershed development schemes that use funds provided by the central government are governed by rules issued by ministries in New Delhi (most notably those produced by the Ministry of Rural Development), there is a fair degree of variation between states in the way in which watershed development programmes are designed. Andhra Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh are among the most visible implementers of the watershed development concept among India’s states. Both states have funded a large number of watersheds. In fact, Andhra Pradesh has a higher percentage of its rain-fed areas than any state in India covered under the watershed development programme. Just as importantly, both have taken administrative measures to brand their watershed development programmes. In Mahdya Pradesh this has taken the form of the Rajiv Gandhi Mission for Watershed Development, whereas in Andhra Pradesh the state government has pursued an action plan pursuant to a 1995 state-level expert committee that examined the prospects for watershed development. Whether watershed development responds to the needs of the poorest of the poor is a big question. For, watershed is a land-based technology while poorest of the poor households often fall under the landless category. Hence, by nature, watershed development addresses only a part of the problem. But, how far watershed development programme addresses the issues pertaining to the landed poor, small (1-2 acres of land) and marginal (less than 1 acre of land) farmers who form majority of the poor. While land less account for about 20 per cent of the rural households, small and marginal farmers account for 60-70 per cent.

    Forest Ecology and Health Care: A Study in Visakha Agency of Andhra Pradesh, India V. SUBRAMANYAM† & B. VEERABHADRUDU‡ Department of Anthropology, Andhra University, Visakhapatnam 530003, Andhra Pradesh E-mail: [email protected] KEY WORDS: Forest ecology, Health, Medicine. Tribes. Visakha agency. Andhra Pradesh. ABSTRACT: Over exploitation of forest resources by the various external agencies, mining operations and development projects of government and non-government in the tribal areas are resulting to deforestation which are adversely affecting the life of the aboriginals. The consequences of forest ecosystem degradation to tribal health are numerous. Primarily, which create natural imbalance of forest bio-diversity resulting to food problem and loosening permanent energy base. Prolonged starvation for food leads to high incidence of malnutrition, morbidity and mortality among them. Due to deforestation, some of the valuable medicinal plants become extinction and tribals also loose their prime medicinal source. The forest policies of government are also adversely affecting the livelihoods of tribals. In this research paper an attempt is made to explain tribals’ interaction with forests and influence of ecological and cultural factors on their health. It also deals with their indigenous medicinal practices and effects of government forest policies on their lifestyles. Further it emphasizes the relevance of action anthropology in solving the health problems of tribals. The paper discusses the inter connectedness in between the forest ecology, health and medicine of tribes in anthropological holistic perspective with an empirical evidence of a case study in Visakha agency area of Andhra Pradesh.

  • Terms of Reference Assignment: Baseline and Market Scoping Study for Coffee, Black Pepper and Turmeric Value Chains in Paderu, Andhra Pradesh
    TERMS OF REFERENCE Terms of Reference Assignment: Baseline and Market Scoping study for coffee, black pepper and turmeric value chains in Paderu, Andhra Pradesh Program: Verified Sourcing Area (VSA) IDH the Sustainable Trade Initiative (IDH), is an international not-for-profit organization that convenes companies, Civil Society Organizations (CSOs), governments, and other stakeholders in public-private partnerships to accelerate and upscale sustainable trade of several agricultural commodities. IDH drives the joint design, co-funding, and prototyping of new economically viable approaches to realize green & inclusive growth at scale in agricultural commodity sectors and sourcing areas. Through its partnerships, IDH aims to drive sustainability from niche to norm in mainstream markets, delivering an impact on the Sustainable Development Goals. IDH VERIFIED SOURCING AREA (VSA) PROGRAM Due to the rising global demand for responsibly produced agricultural commodities, businesses, and governments in producing regions as well as in consumer markets are increasingly putting sustainability commitments on their agendas. Yet no efficient and inexpensive option currently exists to guarantee the supply of agricultural commodities that fulfill these commitments at scale. The Verified Sourcing Area (VSA) model is a new responsible sourcing mechanism currently being developed by IDH and its partners. The VSA model brings together the producing region, supply chain actors, and committed end buyers. In the producing region, a sustainability improvement deal (Compact) is made between private and public stakeholders at the jurisdictional level, e.g. a municipality, mandal, district, or state. Rather than verifying sustainability farm by farm, the proposed partnership model takes a regional jurisdictional approach, which reduces costs for sustainable agriculture and allows markets to buy large scale volumes with greater efficiency, transparency, and traceability.
