Strategic Action plan for Micro Irrigation under Agriculture Department from 2016-17 to 2020-21 District Irrigation plan-PMKSY 5 Udupi District Irrigation Plan at Glance The Government of India has accorded high priority for ensuring access to some means of protective irrigation to all agricultural farms in the country to produce ‘per drop more crop’, thus to bring much desired rural prosperity. With this vision, the Government of India has launched Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana (PMKSY) with the motto of Har Khet Ko Paani.PMKSY is to be implemented in area development mode based on area specific water resource endowments and needs. Programme architecture of PMKSY envisages decentralized State level planning and projectised execution structure. The States are expected to draw up the State Irrigation Plan (SIP) by consolidating District Irrigation Plans (DIPs). District Irrigation Plan (DIP) has, thus, been made the cornerstone for planning and implementation of PMKSY. DIPs are expected to present holistic irrigation development perspective of the district by carrying out stock-taking exercises of water resource potential, identify the needs and gaps in water management and irrigation infrastructure. Udupi district has the lowest cropping intensity and lowest percentage of area under irrigation.Out of 110929ha gross cropped area, the gross irrigated area in Udupi district is 33642ha and net irrigated are is 32870ha. The irrigation intensity is 1.02. The percentage share of gross irrigated area in the gross cropped area works out to 30.3 percent, which is below both the state and national averages.Paddy, which is the only cereal crop grown in the district, is now grown mainly as rain-fed crop during Kharif season. Out of 49453 ha area under paddy, the rain-fed paddy during Kharif season accounts for 43012ha (87 percent). Hardly 13 percent of the area cultivated under paddy during rabi season is irrigated. The main irrigated crops grown in the district are areca nut, coconut and other horticulture and plantation crops. Sugarcane which was once grown in 2000 ha as irrigated crop is now almost abandoned with the closure of the sugar factory in Brhmavar. Udupi district receives abundant rainfall of about 4000mm per annum. The district is also blessed with number of rivers, river tributaries and rivulets which provide very good scope for surface and ground water irrigation. There are, however, no any major and medium irrigation schemes in the district. The Varahi Irrigation Project, which was launched in the year 1979, is yet to be operational. At present, open-wells are the main sources of irrigation. Out of 33642 gross cropped area, 26465 ha (78.7 percent) are irrigated by open-wells. The lift irrigation accounts for 6 percent of the total gross cropped area. Tanks and tube wells only play minor role. The district has 26465 open wells, 289 tanks, 2226 lift irrigation and 520 tube wells. There are 48287 electricity pumps and 6362 diesel pumps installed in the district. As per the latest ground water assessment, the ground water development in Udupi district is low to moderate and therefore considered under "Safe" category. Only 39.12 percent of the utilizable water resources are used for irrigation. After taking into account future demands for drinking and domestic services, livestock, industrial use and power generation, it is estimated that the balance ground water has irrigation potential of 50389 ha. The Varahi Irrigation Project which is under implementation is expected to irrigate 15702 ha; 8324ha in 33 villages of Kundapura taluk and 7378ha in 35 villages of Udupi taluk. Since the entire district falls under ‘safe category’ for surface and ground water exploitation, irrigation expansion for accelerated agricultural development through exploitation of both surface and ground water development in Udupi district poses real challenge. District Irrigation plan-PMKSY 6 Taking into consideration the water resource potential, demand for other uses and the water balance available for irrigation, the DIP for Udupi district aims at bringing additional 35615 ha cultivated area under irrigation. With the completion of the Varahi project and related lift irrigation schemes, the district expects to bring 18912 ha land cultivated in Kundapura and Udupi taluks under canal irrigation. With surface lift irrigation, PRED, minor and micro irrigation, additional 16703 ha cultivated land would be brought under irrigation. As per the PMKSY operational guidelines, the programme elements mainly focus on accelerating completion of on- going majour irrigation project (AIBP), surface and ground water minor irrigation and adoption of micro and precision irrigation (Har Khet ko Pani) and Watershed development particularly through converging MGNREGA (More crop per drop).
