Yet, following the initial lockdown, while the economy ground to a halt, the food supply chain for the year 2021 disruptions declined to 30% in lockdown period, exports have seen a hard hit and the mass exodus of migrant labour back to rural hometowns affected agriculture sector though to a lesser extent compare to industrial and service sector. Global exports faced transport and logistics problems - more stringent customs restrictions, as well as a shortage of containers and shipping vessels. Apart from all these casualties, the sector saw a quick recovery after lockdown was removed, and I am confident that by end of this quarter we will get back to normal levels. Hopefully the sector will have a high growth than the previous year as health awareness has increased and people would prefer more nutritious food”.

  • In Telangana Cotton Farming
    AMERICAN ANTHROPOLOGIST Planting and Performing: Anxiety, Aspiration, and “Scripts” in Telangana Cotton Farming Andrew Flachs ABSTRACT On cotton farms in Telangana, India, performance draws attention to farmers’ work not merely as an economic activity but as directed toward different kinds of audiences and in conversation with different roles, stages, and scripts. Importantly, this performance is contextualized by a neoliberal seed market where a seasonal deluge of accelerated and consumerist seed marketing diminishes the value of experiential knowledge in favor of the expansion of private genetically modified (GM) seed sales. This article draws on mixed methods and qualitative fieldwork conducted between 2012 and 2016 on cotton farms in Telangana to explore the use of “scripts” in rural life: the learned and socially mediated mental maps that reflect sets of rules, values, patterns, or expectations in smallholder commercial agriculture. The script of manci digubadi (good yield) helps order and justify GM cottonseed decision making in rural Telangana, where seed knowledge is uncertain, environmental feedback is ambiguous, and social emulation dominates farmer choices. While being cautious not to present performance in such a way that questions authenticity or presupposes either fatalism or economic rationalism, I argue that scripts help farmers navigate cotton agriculture amid uncertain GM cottonseed markets and the anxieties and aspirations of neoliberal rural India.

  • One Economic Cluster for Each Mandal for Development of Rural Telangana
    ONE ECONOMIC CLUSTER FOR EACH MANDAL FOR DEVELOPMENT OF RURAL TELANGANA 1 Appeal In this report we have listed one hundred models of economic activity that can be taken up in rural/ semi urban locations. Possibly many more ideas will come from entrepreneurs and industrialists. These are not new ideas nor is the concept of clusters, for survival, growth, from agglomeration economies and joint action benefits. What we would like to happen is bringing in improved technologies, tools and provision for innovation of products and process. The basic idea is to identify the inherent strengths of a small geographic area (One Mandal) in terms of resources, skills or simply aspirations of the people and use these strengths in a focused way to build one wealth creating activity touching sizeable number of people. While the intentions are there, we have not made any headway on this. After reviewing the situation TEMPO has come to the conclusion that apart from initiatives of Government, local leadership need be sensitized to the possibilities and nudge them to take part in this development effort. This report is a guide for all stakeholders to understand the concept and contribute to the effort. Support from Civil society Decentralization is the key: The local administration and local leadership at mandal level have to be the torch bearers for this development effort. Selection of suitable cluster, identification of land wherever required and identifying entrepreneurs should be done here. We appeal to local leadership to form an “economic cluster development” team and pursue the selected project. Marketing: After entrepreneur, critical factor for enterprise growth is marketing of the produce.

The role of states is expected to be highly crucial in sustaining the overall economic growth of the country in the coming times. The Indian manufacturing sector is on a high growth trajectory, it sets to contribute 25 percent to the GDP by 2025. Notably, the sector Dr. Mahesh Gupta contributes 66 percent to the nation’s exports and 12% of the total employment in the country. Though predominantly some states are agrarian in nature, but the industrial sector has also emerged as a significant contributor in its economic and social development. The states are now on their way to rapid industrialization through coordinated development of Small, Medium and Large scale enterprises. Also, at the socio economic front, the states have taken effective measures towards the implementation reforms in healthcare, education and other socio-economic segments. During the recent years, the states have taken large scale initiatives to promote the thriving sectors like tourism and industry and initiating public-private partnerships (PPP). Many states are also known for their efforts in the area of skill development.

I consider it as a great privilege that the honour of presenting the fourth consecutive Budget of the new State of Telangana has befallen me. I am grateful to the Hon’ble Chief Minister, Sri Kalvakuntla Chandrasekhar Rao garu for reposing confidence and trust in me and entrusting me with this great responsibility. It will be my earnest duty to live up to the trust reposed in me.

The Telangana people gave this Government the mammoth task of fixing an economy totally neglected on all fronts in the combined State, fulfilling their long suppressed aspirations and regaining the past glory. After 58 dark years, people of Telangana believed that they would see bright future in their own State. It has been our constant endeavour to live up to the confidence reposed in this Government.

  • Explain the Importance of Agriculture in Telangana. Explain the TS Govt Measures to Promote Agriculture
    www.OnlineIAS.com [email protected] Explain the importance of agriculture in Telangana. Explain the TS govt measures to promote agriculture. Introduction Agriculture plays a pivotal role in the economy of Telangana and the better performance of this sector is vital for inclusive growth. Telangana went in for the Green Revolution in rice cultivation in the 1970s. There have been significant changes in the structure and performance of the agrarian economy in the state in the recent years. Telangana State is endowed with bountiful resources having good soils, diversified cropping pattern and major irrigation systems fed by rivers like Godavari and Krishna. Agriculture is a way of life, a tradition that has shaped the culture and economic life of the people of Telangana. Therefore, it will continue to be central to all strategies for planned socio-economic development of the State. The State Government has emphasized the need to achieve 6% growth rate and increased returns on investment to farmers through improved technology, effective extension reach, efficient input delivery, mechanisation, marketing tie up, adequate credit and crop insurance. The total Geographical area of the State is 114.84 lakh ha with a Gross Cropped Area of 62.88 lakh ha in the year 2013-14. 1. Total Geographical Area 114.84 Lakh Ha 2.

The study reveals that there has been a decline in disparities in the levels of human development between different districts and social groups, but growth in per capita income has been more pronounced than the improvements in indicators on education and health, suggesting that economic growth has not been translated into commensurate development in social sectors, particularly for rural areas and for vulnerable sections of society, e.g., less developed areas, women, B.C.s, S.C.s, S.T.s, and minorities.
