The entire district forms a part of the Deccan Plateau and is made up mostly of solidified lava. The northern part of the district is characterized by expanses of level and treeless surface punctuated here and there by flat and undulating hillocks, black soils and basaltic rocks. The southern half of the district is a high plateau about 715 m above mean sea level and are well drained. The average elevation of the district is between 580 to 610 m above mean sea level. Alluvial deposit is normally found along the banks of the Manjra river and its main tributaries.The district is entirely covered by the Deccan trap flows of the tertiary period. The Deccan trap is composed of horizontal flows of basaltic lava. They generally form flat-topped hillocks and terrace-like features.

These have proved very useful for the beneficiaries for the cultivation of grapes. 3. The pack house for grapes in Village Somdev Reddy has greatly benefitted the beneficiary.

Proceedings of the Wrap-up meeting of Joint Inspection Team (JIT) held on 06.08.2011 in the office of the Mission Director and Director of Horticulture, Lalbagh, Bangalore (Karnataka).

Members present:

1. Mission Director and Director of Horticulture, Bangalore (Karnataka) 2. Dr.H.V.L.Bathla, Chief Consultant, NHM,GOI. 3. Director, Directorate of Arecanut and Spices Development, Calicut. 4. Director, Directorate of Cashew and Cocoa Development, Cochi. 5. Dr.R.Krishna Manohar, Principal Investigator (PFDC), UAS, Bangalore. 6. Dr.R.Jayaprakash, Executive Director, KSHMA, Lalbagh, Bangalore.

At the outset, the Mission Director welcomed the JIT members.The Joint Inspection Team under the leadership of Dr.H.V.L.Bathla, Chief Consultant, NHM, GOI visited Bidar, Gulbarga, Bagalkot, Bijapur and Dharwad districts of Karnataka State from 1 st to 5th of August 2011. During the wrap-up meeting held on 6 th August 2011 with the Mission Director and Director of Horticulture, Lalbagh, Bangalore and after detailed interaction, the points enunciated in the meeting are as follows.

1. The opinion of the JIT is that the overall implementation of the scheme in the State is satisfactory. However, the cluster approach is followed in some places and it has to be strengthened. 2. They were of the opinion that in some places even though NHM sign board is there, NHM logo is missing. Display of NHM logo should be ensured in all the cases where NHM assistance is given. 3. While giving assistance to pack houses, its effective usage for the said purpose should be ensured. 4. The ripening chambers assisted under NHM should be farmer friendly. SHM should evolve a mechanism to fix the price for the produce to be placed for ripening by the farmers in these ripening chambers. 5. The on-line trading mechanism developed at the Bijapur APMC market is very effective and it should be followed in the Gulbarga APMC market also. The markets assisted under NHM should start functioning soon. 6. While there is good scope for rejuvenation in Dharwad district, the recommended rejuvenation technique given by the Department of Horticulture to all the DHO’s is not being followed. This should be ensured that recommended rejuvenation technique is used. 7. The JIT while appreciating the usage of bio-digesters, opined that there is a need to promote this in other States also. They requested to send a note on the usage, methodology and qualitative and quantitative aspects of bio-digesters, so that this can be promoted in other States.

8. On the whole, implementation of community water storage structures is good and they are well maintained in Bijapur district. 9. The medicinal properties of Kamalapur banana should be ascertained by testing it before promoting it for its medicinal properties. 10. The Department should impart more technical guidance to the farmers.

Mission Director and Director of Horticulture while discussing the issue of availability of good planting material, said that in case of Cocoa the only accredited nursery available in the State is at CPCRI, Vittla, Dakshina Kannada. Since, all the cocoa growers cannot afford to purchase the planting material from Dakshina Kannada, the nurseries in Shimoga are making the plants available to the growers after producing the plants from the pods procured from CPCRI, Vittla. The Mission Director requested Director, DCCD to arrange to inspect these nurseries for their genuinity.

Recommendations:-

1. In area expansion programme for different horticulture crops, there is a need to follow cluster approach. 2. Signboard with NHM logo need to be displayed, wherever, financial support has been given. 3. The financial support for Bio-digester is being given only in the State of Karnataka. These need to be evaluated for nutrient availability as well as its beneficial effects on controlling pests and diseases. 4. In view of the huge financial support of NHM for establishing APMC markets in different districts, efforts are needed to start functioning of the markets without undue delay and the interest of the farmers need to be safeguarded. 5. The information pertaining to the farmers , samples analyzed, diagnosis made and remedial measures suggested by the Plant Health Clinics along with the feedback of the farmers, thereafter, need to be documented. 6. The State Horticulture Mission must ensure that activity for which financial support under NHM has been provided has started functioning before releasing the final installment. 7. The scientific techniques recommended and already tested for rejuvenation of Mango Orchards need to be followed. 8. More training / exposure visit need to be arranged for transfer of technology.
