Visit to Rajgarh 62-70

2 OBSERVATIONS  Non availability of a proper mechanism to ensure the supply of good quality planting material to the farmers is a major concern. Large tracts of area are being brought under orange cultivation for which farmers are free to procure the planting material from any source within or outside the State. There is no quality check to ensure disease free quality of the plants. In the absence of any regulatory frame work in the State, a committee needs to be constituted with the participation of SAU/ICAR Institutes which would visit the nurseries for certifying the planting material for its suitability for supply to the farmers.  Coordination between the various departments is lacking. Linkages between SHM and SAU’s are also not at desired level.  There is need to follow cluster approach in area expansion programme for different horticultural crops. This should be linked with necessary infrastructures for post harvest handling, storage and marketing of the produce.  More training programmes and exposure visits are needed for dissemination of technology to the farmers and field functionaries.  There is high demand for the planting material of Nagpur orange. So far, the state has not taken steps to establish a good nursery for propagating quality orange plants in this region.  Bank credit to the farmers is being delayed, affecting the deliverable, has been reported.  Faulty poly house structure was highlighted to the district official. JIT suggested that construction agency may rectify the defects.  Good attempt has been made in setting up of onion storages 50 MT capacity in the districts of Rajgarh. Onion growers are demanding numerous storages with capacity of 1000/2000 MT. This may be looked into.  Area Expansion Programme is being taken up without cluster approach in the district of Ujjain.  Model Nursery located in the districts is required to fix the target for production of planting material considering the requirement of the district / region.  Vermi compost unit constructed at Biaora was roofless / without shade, it may be looked into.

3  Possibilities may be explored to have onion grading machine near the production centre on the line of garlic grading machine.  Wherever vermi composts unit exists, provision for collection of vermi wash may be kept.  JIT felt that canopy management technology is not being adopted in fruit crops. The productivity has also gone down, due to lack of canopy management in senile guava available at the Govt. Nursery, Mandsaur.  All sites should have display board with logo of NHM.  There is a huge shortfall under pollination support through Bee keeping. Only 3.39% of the target has been achieved since 2005-06. More focus is needed on this component.

4 ACTIONABLE ISSUES

 Mandsaur / Neemuch / Rajgarh districts have good potential for development of horticulture. The efforts made for expansion of the area under orange are showing results. Moreover, there is scope for introduction of non traditional fruits like pomegranate and grapes in this area. Agronomical practices need to be made available to farmers for such crops.  Rejuvenation of senile mandarin and guava orchards need to be taken up on priority basis.  Nursery activity needs to be given more emphasis to ensure supply of good quality planting material to the farmers. For this purpose, more nurseries need to be accredited by NHB/ SAU. Government Nursery, Zeerapur has good potential producing elite material of orange, need to be strengthened, keeping in view the availability of Rangpur lime root stock.  There is need to have good facilities to detect nutrient deficiency in citrus orchards. Since area under orange is expanding rapidly in the state, package of practices, INM/IPM services need to be provided to the farmers for getting better yield.  There is no proper quality check to ensure good material being used for construction of poly house. Proper guidelines and specific standards need to be fixed by the SHM for such structure, as per NHM norms.  Better progress is desirable under certain components like pollination support, mushroom cultivation and setting up of model nurseries in private sector.  Training, exposure visits and awareness programme need to be conducted for farmers / implementing agencies / field functionaries and official responsible for implementing the programmes.  Orange cultivation is increasing in districts of Mandsaur, Neemuch and Raigarh, special attention need to be given to integrated pest management measures since pests and diseases are alarmingly increasing in the region. Moreover, for promoting IPM technology, IPM infrastructures viz. bio control labs / Plant Health Clinics need to be set up in the State.

5  Gap filling operations in newly raised orchards needs to be carried out in a time bound manner. Farmer needs to be encouraged for taking up inter crops in the newly established orchards.  NHM logo and boards need to be displayed at the sites of beneficiary wherever NHM assistance has been provided.

15 Report of the Joint Inspection Team on its visit to Madhya Pradesh during 19-25 May, 2013 to review the progress under the National Horticulture Mission

The Joint Inspection Team (JIT) comprising Dr. Om Prakash, Chief Consultant, National Horticulture Mission visited Madhya Pradesh during 19-25 May, 2013 to review the progress under National Horticulture Mission programme in the State. Dr. P. Singh, Associate Prof. Horticulture, Govt. College Mandsaur joined the Team. Shri Anil Khare Joint Director (Horticulture) and Shri M.P. Khare Assistant Director (Horticulture) coordinated the visit of the Team in Ujjain, Mandasaur, Raigarh, and Neemuch districts of the State.

Introduction Landlocked in the central part of the country, it is bounded by the states of to the northwest, Uttar Pradesh to the north, Chhattisgarh to the east and Maharashtra to the south, and Gujarat to the west.

Madhya Pradesh is the second largest state and ranks seventh in population. The State is primarily an agriculture State. About 73% population of the state is rural, which is directly or indirectly depends on agriculture. Thus Agriculture Sector is the main Stay of the State economy. The Agriculture and allied services contributes about 44% share in state economy and 78% of its working force is directly engaged in Agriculture. Thus Agriculture sector forms the backbone of MP economy.

Madhya Pradesh is having a geographical area of 30.75 million hectares, which is divided into 45 district of the state and 9 revenue divisions. The state has 313 development blocks which are the units for development activities. The forests occupies in the States 8.49 million hectares which is 27.2 % of the Geographical area of the state where as the cultivated area is about 49 %. The major perennial rivers of the State namely Mahi, Narmada, Tapti, Chambal, Betwa, Sone, Wainganga, Ken., and Pench Originate in Madhya Pradesh and flow to the seven bordering states

Madhya Pradesh has a topography that is crossed from north to south by plains separated by upland areas. The state has three main seasons: winter (November through February), summer (March through May), and the monsoon season (June through 16 September). During the winter average temperatures range from 10° to 27° C (50° to 81° F). Summers are hot, with an average temperature of 29° C (85° F) and a high temperature that at times reaches 48° C (118° F). During the monsoon season temperatures average 19° to 30° C (66° to 86°). Madhya Pradesh receives as average annual rainfall of about 1200 mm (nearly 50 in), of which 90 percent falls during the monsoon season. The capital of the state is .

Economy and Infrastructure Agriculture is the basis of Madhya Pradesh economy. Less than half of the land area is cultivable, however, and its distribution is quite uneven because of variations in topography, rainfall, and soils. The main cultivated areas are found in the Chambal valley, the Plateau and the Rewa Plateau. The Narmada valley, covered with river-borne alluvium, is another fertile area.

The most important crops are rice, wheat, sorghum (jowar), corn (maize), pulses (legumes such as peas, beans, or lentils), and peanuts (groundnuts). Rice is grown principally in the east, where there is more rainfall, while in western Madhya Pradesh wheat and sorghum are more important. The state is the largest soybean producer in . Other crops include linseed, sesame, sugarcane, and cotton, as well as inferior millets, which are grown in hilly areas. The state is a large producer of opium (in the western district of Mandasor, near Rajasthan) and marijuana (in the southwestern district of Khandwa [East Nimar]). Madhya Pradesh is rich in minerals, though these resources have not yet been fully exploited. There are large reserves of coal and important deposits of iron ore, manganese ore, bauxite, limestone, dolomite, copper, fireclay, and china clay. Diamond reserves at Panna are of particular interest.

The major industries of the state are electronics, telecommunications, petrochemicals, food processing and automobiles. The state has also taken a lead in the production of cement. The state is also famous for its traditional handicrafts and handlooms manufactured at Chanderi and Maheshwar.

The state is well endowed with potential hydroelectric power. Main hydroelectric projects (jointly developed with other states) are the Babanthadi with Maharashtra, the Ban Sagar with Bihar and Uttar Pradesh, the Chambal Valley with Rajasthan, the

17 Narmada Sagar with Gujarat and Rajasthan, and the Rajghat and Urmil with Uttar Pradesh. The Hasdeo Bango, Bargi, and Birsinghapur thermal power projects are also within the state. The Narmada Sagar project has been a source of controversy because of its potential for damaging the environment.

In comparison with other Indian states, Madhya Pradesh is well served with transport and communications facilities. The main railroads that pass through the state were originally laid down to connect the ports of Madras, Bombay, and Calcutta with their hinterlands. Important railway junctions include Bhopal, , Khandwa, Bilaspur, and Katni. Also connecting the state with other parts of India are airports at Bhopal, , , , Rewa, and Khajuraho, as well as several national highways.

Observations 1. Pomegranate is a new crop being taken by farmers of the district without supplementing and technical know how by the department. 2. Canopy management is lacking in guava, water shoots are frequently coming out and growing luxuriantly, killing the main shoot. 3. Orange plantation is coming up well. There is a need for good plant protection techniques to be adopted for control of leaf minor, thrips mite and phytophthora disease by the growers. 4. Wherever vermi compost units are sanctioned, there should be a provision for taking out vermi wash from pit. 5. Most of beneficiary site, NHM board was found missing.
