District Irrigation Plan of Malkangiri, Odisha

FOREWORD Malkangiri is a remotest and backward district of Odisha and located at in the southern western tip of Odisha. The district has the rich tribal culture and the major occupant tribes are Bondas, Gadabas, Kondhs and Koyas. The district is having 5791 sq. kms of geographical area. Due to the predominance of tribal populations and of remoteness, the district has less literacy rate of about 49.49%. The part of the district is hilly and comes under the Eastern-Ghats and other parts are comes under flat lands. Majority area is under forest and a large number of tribal families earn their livelihood from the forest products. Hence, the forests have economic relevance in the district. The agro-climatic condition and natural resources of the district is conducive for growth of agricultural and allied activities. For the majority of the population in the district, cultivation is the primary occupation. The Average annual rainfall is about 1667.7 mm with 79 Rain Days. The Western plain areas (blocks) are having good irrigation facility from the major irrigation project, one medium irrigation project and other existing projects. The Eastern Ghats region of the district has devoid of the irrigation projects and developmental activities due to the undulating terrains and remoteness. These areas also vulnerable and challenging where the administration faces tough challenges while delivering public services. “Pradhana Mantri Krishi SinchayeeYojana” (PMKSY) is aimed to increasing the irrigated area in all the blocks of the district following holistic and integrated approach with the vision of extending the coverage of irrigation ‘Har Khet Ko Pani’ and improving water use efficiency ‘More Crop Per Drop' in a focused manner. The DLIC has prepared a strategic action plan to cover all the rainfed areas with assured and protective irrigations to enhance to crop productivity and to minimize the risk of crop failure due to drought and rainfall variability. I hope that the strategic action plan proposed under District Irrigation Plan (DIPs) is very much useful in overall development of agriculture and bringing prosperity to the all the community in the District. I sincerely acknowledge the support, guidance and timely advice of the Commissioner-Cum- Director,OWDM, Bhubaneswar. I congratulate the DLIC for preparing the DIP and thanks to the Scientific Team from ICAR-IISWC, Research Centre, Sunabeda, Koraput, Odisha for their valuable technical advice and services in preparing this report. This report is quite useful and serves as a guide in increasing area under irrigation in the district.

SUMMARY

 Malkangiri is the 13th largest district in the state and ranks 22nd in terms of gross cropped area in the state. The average annual rainfall varies from 994.05 mm to 1809.53 mm.  District has 2.41% ST&SC population of the state and it has 60.93% ST population and 23% SC population within the district.  The total cropped area is about 1.97 lakh ha out of which 0.91 lakh ha (46.2% of TCA) is irrigated and 1.08 lakh ha (53.8% of TCA) is under rainfed area where Kalimela block is fully irrigated .  Among the different crop groups, cereals accounts for 38.0% of the irrigated area followed by oil seed crops (22.4%), pulses (16.4%), other crops (15.2%), coarse cereals (6.8%), and horticulture and plantation (1.1%), and. This indicates that major source of water in agriculture is being used for cultivation of cereals like paddy and maize.  The total irrigated area from different source of surface irrigation and ground water is about 113473 ha in Malkangiri district out of which 71576 ha(63.0 %), 38721 ha (34.0%) and 3176 ha (3%) area are during kharif ,Rabi and summer, respectively.  Maximum area under surface irrigation is from major and medium irrigation canal in all seasons. During kharif 57,901 ha (about 53%) of the total surface irrigated followed by 31903 ha(29 %) during Rabi season.  Average ground water development in the Malkangiri district is 10% and it varied between 5.06 to 13.60% among the blocks. Highest in the block of Khairaput (13.6%) followed by Kalimela (12.42%) and Malkangiri (11.39%). The lowest ground water development in the block oh Podia (5.06%), followed by Mathili (7.76%).  Total area under Canal command in four blocks of the district is 72342 ha out of which 44652 ha (61.7 %) is under developed and 27690 ha (38.3 %) under undeveloped.  Among the existing type of irrigation systems, six surface irrigation government canal existing Malkangiri district in four blocks namely Malkangiri, Korkunda, Kalimela and Podia covering an area of 57901 ha. Maximum area irrigated through govt. canal in Kalimela block (23190 ha) followed by Podia (15354 ha) block.  Total domestic water demand during 2025 will be 0.024894 BCM, whereas the present demand is 0.012541 BCM. Present crop water demand is highest for cereals (57%) followed by other crops (19%) and oilseeds (15%).  Ultimate crop water potential (UCWP) to be created under different scenario varied from 0.331 to 2.986 BCM from 10 to 90% of the crop sown area to be irrigated. Similarly, water potential to be created at different scenario varied from -1.795 to 0.857 BCM.  Available surface water resource (1.8400 BCM) is more than five times higher than total groundwater resource (0.3361 BCM). More than 55% of the total water resources are available in three blocks (Kalimela, Korkunda and Kudumulguma).

An Over View of District Irrigation Plan under PMKSY A.1.0 Introduction A.1.1 Background- Water is an important basic resource directly and indirectly contributes to the overall development of the country. Hence for the better water conservation and its management, Government of India started an mega programme called “Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana (PMKSY)” on 1st July, 2015 with the vision of extending the coverage of irrigation ‘Har Khet ko pani’ and improving water use efficiency ‘More crop per drop' in a focused manner with end to end solution on source creation, distribution, management, field application and extension activities. Due to constant pressure from our ever-growing population and increased urbanization, the cultivable area is shrinking. Presently we are utilizing only 634 BCM (56.46%) of water resources from the total water resources (1123 BCM). In fact there is a high demand /requirement for food grain production due to increasing population from the shrinking cultivable land. But there is a scope to improve the production by the proper use of available water resource (489 BCM) by increasing the irrigation area and by others water management methods. This goal can be achieved by bringing irrigation water to every farm, there is need to converge all ongoing efforts, put all efforts under one umbrella and to bridge the gaps through location specific innovative interventions. A.1.2 Vision

“Har Khet ko Pani Jal Sanchaya Jal Sinchan”

A.1.3 Objective The broad objectives of PMKSY will be:  Achieve convergence of investments in irrigation at the field level (preparation of district level and, if required, sub district level water use plans),  Enhance the physical access to water on the farm and expand cultivable area under assured irrigation (Har khet ko pani),  Improve on-farm water use efficiency to reduce wastage and increase availability both in duration and extent,  Enhance the adoption of precision-irrigation and other water saving technologies (More crop per drop),  Enhance recharge of aquifers and introduce sustainable water conservation practices,

 Ensure the integrated development of rainfed areas using the watershed approach towards soil and water conservation, regeneration of ground water, arresting runoff, providing livelihood options and other NRM functionaries,  Promote extension activities relating to water harvesting, water management and crop alignment for farmers and grass root level field functionaries,  Explore the feasibility of reusing treated municipal waste water for peri-urban agriculture, and  Attract greater private investment in irrigation.

A.1.4 Strategy / approach Malkangiri district irrigated area accounts for 45.6 % (90700 ha) of the TCA (198690 ha) and remaining 54.4% (107990 ha) of the GCA is under rainfed. This shows a balance between irrigated and rainfed area in the district. But gap continue to exist between the ultimate irrigation potential and the present irrigated area. Out of seven blocks, in two blocks irrigated area more than 50% of the TCA and in remaining blocks irrigated area is very low (5.0 to 43.1% of the TCA). There is wide variation in term of irrigation development among the blocks and it varied from 5.0 % to a maximum of 98.3% of the total cropped area. To address this inequality in irrigation development in the district, the blocks have been prioritized into high and low priority blocks for the irrigation development under PMKSY. The strategic approach is planned and proposed to bring the high priority blocks to at least 50% of the GCA under irrigation. To achieve objectives, PMKSY will strategize by focusing on end-to end solution in irrigation supply chain, viz. water sources, distribution network, efficient farm level applications, extension services on new technologies & information etc. The following table presents the strategies and approach followed in order to achieve the objectives under PMKSY.

Components wise Priority for High & Low Priority Blocks

A.1.5 Rationale / justification statement Presently only about 45.6% of the total cropped area is under assured and protective irrigation in the Malkangiri District and remaining area of 54.4% total cropped area still rainfed and subjected to high risk of crop production. Substantial dependency on monsoon rainfall makes cultivation in unirrigated areas a high risk, less productive farming profession. To make the farming is a profitable enterprise and to provide substantial employment opportunities to the future generation for their sustainable livelihood security through assured and protective irrigation source is a viable option. Empirical evidences suggest that assured or protective irrigation encourages farmers to invest more in farming technology and inputs leading to productivity enhancement and increased farm income. The overreaching vision of PMKSY will be to ensure access to some means of protective irrigation to all farming community in the District, to produce ‘per drop more crop’, thus bringing much desired rural prosperity. As per the guideline of PMKSY, DLIC is to prepare a perspective and strategic plan of District Irrigation Plan (DIP) based on the priorities of the blocks and indicate implementation strategy and expected outputs/outcomes, financial outlays and approach. The detailed strategic plan of Malkangiri District has been prepared based on the following criteria and approach.

Blocks are grouped into high and low priority blocks based on NSA, percent of NSA under irrigation, ST/SC population, and percent of wastelands and stage of GWD etc. The perspective plan provides strategic road map for implementation of component wise planned activities of PMSKY in a holistic approach for increasing area under irrigation. This also provides a strategic direction for development and management of rainfed area in the District and scope for

Chapter-I: General information of the District 1.1 District Profile 1.1.1 Introduction

Malkangiri is the southern-most district of Orissa. Malkangiri is the new home of the Bangladeshi refugees, who were rehabilitated since 1965 under the . Currently it is one of the most naxalite affected areas of the state and is a part of the Red Corridor. Malkangiri was awarded the status of the district in October 1992, when the erstwhile Koraput district was divided into four new districts. The district lies between north latitudes 17º47’58” and 18º44’18” and East longitudes 81º23’23” and 82º27’05”. The Malkangiri town, the district headquarter is approachable from adjacent districts through State Highways.

The important towns of the district are well connected by road. The Kolab River along with its tributaries, the Potteru and Sileru Rivers is the most prominent river of the region. The hills and forests cover almost seventy six percent of the total geographical area of the district as per the classification of the forest area by legal status in Malkangiri district.

1.1.2 History The history of Malkangiri seems to be in no way less thrilling and adventurous than any other place of India. The land of dense inaccessible forests, small but beautiful rivers, undulating plateaus and splendorous rich tribal culture, Malkangiri has its history of human civilization enrooted to as long as 2500 years back. Prior to the modern civilization, many mythological episodes took place in and around Malkangiri. During the reign of Lord Ramachandra, Malkangiri occupied an important place in the entire ‘Ramayana’. It was the holy river ‘The Tamasa’ and its environs which encouraged Saint Valmiki to express his internal feelings in the form of ‘The Ramayana’, the holiest book of the Hindus. During the period of Indus Valley civilization, a rich civilization flourished along the banks of the river ‘Tamasa’. In the year 1995, some ancient monuments were discovered from the same place, signifying the above facts. Also a big ‘Shiva Linga’ was discovered from beneath the ground here, en lighting a linkage of this civilization with that of Indus Valley civilization. The ancient Kings of this place, during the early Vedic and later Vedic periods, worshiped Lord Mallikeshwar, after whom they named their kingdom as ‘Mallika Nagari’. This Mallika Nagari gradually became Malkangiri in the modern times.

1.1.3 Rainfall and Climate

The district has a subtropical climate. South west monsoon is the principal source of rainfall. Rainfall pattern is uneven and erratic. The average annual rainfall gradually increases from South Western to North Eastern parts of the district. The average annual rainfall varies from 994.05 mm to 1809.53 mm. The agricultural definition of drought takes into account the negative departure of seasonal rainfall from the mean seasonal rainfall. A perusal of the frequency of occurrence of drought indicates that mild to normal drought condition prevails in Malkangiri District.

The climate of the district is tropical with hot and dry summer and pleasant winter. The summer season extends from March to middle of June followed by the rainy season from June to September. The winter season extends from November till the end of February. Maximum temperature rising up to 44 0C during May. In the summer months of April and May, hot winds from the west are generally experienced in the afternoon. December is the coldest month with lowest temperature during winter being 11 0C. Monsoon generally lasts from the end of May to October. Occasional showers are received in the month of April, November and December.

1.1.4 Ground Water Resources

The Ground Water Resources of the district has been assessed adopting the methodology recommended by the Groundwater Estimation Committee (1997), constituted by Govt. of India. The task was jointly carried out by the Central Ground Water Board and Ground water Survey & Investigation, Department of Water Resources, Govt. of Orissa. The Annual replenishable ground water resource in the district is 33598 Ha-m (0.33598 BCM), out of which the existing Ground Water Draft for irrigation is 2942 Ha-m (0.02942 BCM). The ground water draft for irrigation is through dug wells and tube wells. A large number of hand pumps fitted in PHED bore wells and tube wells also cater to the rural and urban water supply needs. On the basis of the estimated ground water potentials a detailed scheme for ground water development may be launched in the district. So far ground water development in the district has been meager, and all the blocks fall under the safe category. The overall Stage of Groundwater development of the district is 8.76 %. There is ample scope for stepping up ground water development in the district. The major source of recharge from rainfall (25%) and other source contribute only 8% towards total recharge of 34% with net ground water accounting to 31% (Fig. 1.1.4).

1.1.5 Soil Types The distribution of different soil types in the district depends much on its physiographic and lithologic variations. Based on the physical and chemical characteristics, mode of origin and occurrence, soils of the district may be classified into two groups namely Alfisols (Red Soil) and Ultisols (Lateritic soil). Alfisols: Alfisols or red soil are the most prominent soil types in the district. There are two different varieties – red sandy soil and red loamy soil. They are red in colour and clayey in nature especially the loamy soil, poor in organic matter. Its fertility is low.

10 District Irrigation Plan of Malkangiri, Odisha

Ultisols: Ultisols or lateritic soil occurs in a narrow diagonal strip across the district trending NE-SW. They are red to brown in colour and clayey in nature. Due to low organic matter content the fertility of lateritic soil is low. . 1.1.6 Agriculture

Agriculture is the main occupations of the vast majority of the population. However because of forest cover and rugged terrain conditions of the district agriculture is by and large confined to Kharif Season. Rabi cultivation is practiced at places, where irrigation facilities are available. No uniform cropping pattern seems to be followed in the district. Shifting or ‘Podu’ cultivation is practiced on high hill slopes. Paddy is the main crop sown during the Kharif seasons. Apart from paddy, other important Kharif crops are Maize, Ragi, millet and different type of pulses. In higher altitudes above 600 m potato is cultivated during Kharif season. During Rabi oil seeds are the main crops. Pulses and wheat are also grown substantially.

Chapter II: District Water Profile

A scarce natural resource, water is fundamental to life, livelihood, food security and sustainable development. The National Water Policy (2002) document very categorically states that water is a prime natural resource, a basic human need and a precious national asset. It further states that it is one of the most crucial elements in developmental planning. Agricultural sector in India in general and in Odisha in particular has been and is likely to remain the major use of water. Undoubted, irrigation has been one of the pillars of green revolution and key factor in imparting resilience and drought proofing to agriculture. In this context, Malkangiri district of Odisha, is one of the few places which is richly endowed with water resources with an average annual rainfall varies from 994.0 mm to 1809.5 mm (Table 1.4). It is worth while to mention that barring a few districts, level of groundwater development in Malkangiri district is less than 10 % (Table 3.2). Realizing the importance of the water resources and the role it would play in enhancing agricultural production in a sustainable manner, Government has developed irrigation resources. The district water profile particularly for agricultural use for raising different crops is presented in this section. Understanding the area under irrigated by different crops provides making strategies for efficient utilization of scare water resources for bring rainfed areas under irrigation.

2.1 Crops and block-wise Irrigated and Rainfed Area

The crop wise and block wise irrigated and rainfed area in Malkangiri district is presented in Table 2.1. The block wise information of Malkangiri district, related to the season and crop- wise irrigation status are presented in Table 2.1.1 to 2.1.7.  The total cropped area is about 1.99 lakh ha out of which 0.91 lakh ha (45.6% of TCA) is irrigated and 1.08 lakh ha (54.4% of TCA) is under rainfed area (Table 2.1).  Kalimela block is fully irrigated (98 % of TCA).  The blocks like Korukonda, Malkangiri, and Podia, in which percent of irrigated areas are high as compared to other blocks, and Kudumulugum block is poorly irrigated (5.0% of TCA) (Fig. 2.1.1)  Among the different crop groups, cereals accounts for 38.0% of the irrigated area followed by oil seed crops (22.4%), pulses (16.4%), other crops (15.2%), coarse cereals (5.6%), and horticulture and plantation (1.1%), and. This indicates that major source of water in agriculture is being used for cultivation of cereals like paddy and maize (Table 2.1).  In the district as a whole, total cereal accounts for 20.5 % of the TCA is under irrigated and 32.1% of the total TCA is under rainfed (Fig.2.1.2). Among the blocks, Kalimela (35.6%), Podia (34.5%), Korukonda (22.4%) having higher percent of the TCA is under irrigated and followed by Malkangiri (21.5%). Other hand, Mathili 23

(70.7%), Kudumulugum (65.8%), and Khairaput (63.6%) are the blocks, where higher percent of TCA is under rainfed cereals.  Total pulses accounts only 7.5% of the TCA is under irrigated and 4.8% is under rainfed in the Malkangiri district. The blocks like Kalimela (29.4%), Podia (6.1%), Malkangiri (2.3%) and Korukonda (2.1%) are the blocks having higher percent of the total pulses under irrigated (Fig.2.1.3)  In Malkangiri district, only 23.2% the TCA is under irrigated food crops and nearly 43.5% of the TCA is under rainfed food crops (Fig.2.1.4). The blocks like Kalimela (65.0%), Podia (40.6%), Korukonda (24.6%) and Malkangiri (23.7%) are having higher per cent of TCA under irrigated food crops. This suggests that other blocks having greater potential to convert rainfed area into irrigated.  Oil seeds account 10.2% of the TCA under irrigated and 14.4% of the TCA under rainfed, which shows majority of the oilseeds is under rainfed areas. In the district, Kalimela (25.9%), Podia (17.3%) and Korukonda (8.0%) blocks are having maximum percentage of TCA, under irrigated oil seeds (Fig 2.1.5).  Other crops including fibre crops accounts about 7.0% of the GCA is irrigated but percent area under rainfed is 1.4%, due to major crops are being the vegetable crops is under irrigated (Fig.2.1.6)  In the district hardly 0.5% of the TCA is irrigated horticulture and plantation crops and, 1.5% of the TCA is under rainfed horticulture & plantation (Fig.2.1.7). Particularly Malkangiri block is having more horticulture and plantation cropped area than other blocks in the district.

2.3: Irrigation Based Classification

Cultivable land is grouped in to irrigated and rainfed area. Under irrigated area, again it classified into gross irrigated area and net irrigated area. Partially irrigated/Protective irrigation area under rainfed area has been found to be 20-50% of the total rainfed area, and this protective irrigation mainly through various kinds of rainwater harvesting structures particularly developed through watershed and other programmes like MGNREAGA etc. Block wise irrigated and rainfed area is presented in table 2.3.  Kalimela block has highest net irrigated area followed by Korukonda block (Table 2.3).  Kudumulugum, Khairaput and Mathili blocks have least net irrigated area in the district (Table 2.3).  Partially irrigated or protective irrigated area prevails in all blocks, highest in Mathili block (5986 ha), followed by Korukonda block (5888 ha) (Fig. 2.3.1).  In different blocks, percentage of partially or protective area ranges 20-50 % of the rainfed area of the blocks, highest for Kalimela (50% of rainfed area) (Table 2.3).  Percentage of Net Irrigated Area (NIA) to Net Sown Area (NSA) is highest for Kalimela block (97.4%), followed by Podia (76.0%) and Korukonda (44.4%), whereas same is least for Kudumulugum (5.3%) (Fig. 2.3.2).  Similarly percent of Total Irrigated Area (TIA) to TCA is highest for Kalimela block (83.2%), followed by Podia (65.7%) and Korukonda (47.9%), whereas same is least for Kudumulugum (6.9%) (Fig. 2.3.2).

Chapter -III: Water Availability

The source of water for irrigation can include surface water sources, ground water sources, and other agricultural and industrial process wastewaters. The status of water availability varies over season and quantity depends on different type of irrigation sources in Malkangiri district (Table 3.1). Water obtained for surface irrigation from canal through major and medium irrigation projects, minor irrigation tanks, through lift irrigation and from many other perennial sources. Ground water obtained only from open wells and deep tube wells. While transporting irrigation water from the source to the field, the major concern should be to minimize the conveyance loss, to achieve high irrigation efficiency and switch more area from rainfed to irrigation.

3.1 Status of Water Availability

The irrigation potential created and status of water availability under different type of irrigation sources in Malkangiri district is presented in table 3.1a and table 3.1b.

Chapter IV: Water Requirement /Demand

Water is required for domestic, agricultural, hydro-power, thermal power, navigation, recreation, industries, etc. With a growing population and rising needs of a fast developing in all sectors as well as the given indications of the impact of climate change, availability of utilizable water will be under further strain in the future with the possibility of deepening water stress and conflicting situation among different user groups. Low consciousness about the scarcity of water and its life sustaining and economic value results in its mismanagement, wastage, and inefficient use, as also pollution and reduction of flows below minimum ecological needs. In addition, there are inequities in distribution and lack of a unified perspective in planning, management and use of water resources. This section presents the water demands for various purposes like domestic, agriculture, livestock, commercial industries, other major scale industries, power generation etc. during current situation and projected demand for 2025.

4.1 Domestic Water Demand

Domestic water demand was assessed based on the rural and urban population water needs for drinking and other domestic purposes. Present water demand for domestic purpose was estimated by considering the water requirement per capita @ 60 and 80 lpd water for rural and urban population, respectively. The projected estimate for 2025 is made by considering the water demand @ 100 and 135 lpd for rural and urban population, respectively. The population at 2025 is estimated by considering the cumulative growth of 21% from the base year of 2011. Block wise domestic water demand for rural, urban and total population wise is presented in Table 4.1.

 The increase of population over 14 years (2011-2025) is nearly 21% (Figure 4.1.1), but the domestic water demand seems to be double during this period.  Total domestic water demand during 2025 will be 0.024894 BCM, whereas the present demand is 0.012541 BCM.  Among the blocks, Korkunda has the highest domestic water demand, followed by Kalimela, Mathili, Malkangiri, Kudumulguma, and Podia. The least domestic water demand was there in Khairaput block (Figure 4.1.2).

 

47 District Irrigation Plan of Malkangiri, Odisha

 To ensure domestic water supply, along with the quantity we have to ensure the water quality.  Roof top rain water harvesting will be a viable alternate (Priority will go down from Government buildings to individual household).

4.2 Crop Water Demand

Crop water demand was calculated based on the average water requirement of major cereals, pulses, oilseeds, vegetables, spices & condiments and sugarcane crops multiplied by the present and future irrigated area for that particular crop. Existing crop water potential required is estimated after meeting domestic + livestock and industrial water demand. Ultimate water potential to be created is estimated at different scenarios of 10 to 90% of the crop sown area to be brought under irrigation and assuming average 40% field application efficiency of irrigation water. Water potential to be created at different scenario is arrived by subtracting existing water potential from the ultimate crop water potential to be created at different scenarios.

 The current crop water demand is estimated to be 0.774 BCM and major crop groups are cereals and oilseeds (Table 4.2).  The existing water potential is 2.176 BCM and the existing water potential available for crops after meeting the demand of domestic, livestock and industries comes down to 2.126 BCM.  Present crop water demand is highest for cereals (57%) followed by other crops (19%) and oilseeds (15%) (Figure 4.2.1).  Ultimate crop water potential (UCWP) to be created under different scenario varied from 0.331 to 2.986 BCM from 10 to 90% of the crop sown area to be irrigated (Figure 4.2.2).  Similarly, water potential to be created at different scenario varied from -1.795 to 0.857 BCM.  Crop water demand during 2025 will be like cereals (71%) followed by other crops like sugarcane (16%) and pulses (6%).  Vegetables, pulses and oilseeds need priority for additional water.

 Crop water demand for different blocks of Malkangiri district will be in the following order: Kalimela > Korkunda > Podia > Malkangiri > Mathili > Khairaput > Kudumulguma (Figure 4.2.3).

 Cop water potential to be created to meet the demand for different blocks of Nabrangpur district will be in the following order: Kalimela > Korkunda > Podia > Malkangiri.  Crop water demand during 2025 will be like cereals (54%) followed by oilseeds (16%) and other crops sugarcane (13%) and pulses (11%).  Pulses need 36% additional water potential to be created (Figure 4.2.4).  Sugarcane is being cultivated with full irrigation now, therefore no need to create the additional water potential for the crop.  Instead of creating additional water potential, emphasis needs to be given to increase the storage, conveyance and application efficiency.  Micro irrigation systems may be developed.  Availability of higher surface water in the district warrant the need for a better water distribution mechanism.

51 District Irrigation Plan of Malkangiri, Odisha

4.3 Livestock Water Demand

 Livestock water demand has been calculated based on the number of poultry and various animals multiplied by their daily water demand. Projected livestock population is estimated by assuming the growth rate of 5% upto 2025. The daily water demand for poultry and various domestic animals are as follows: Poultry and Duck - 0.35 l lpd; Pig – 8 l lpd; Goat and Sheep – 6 l lpd; Cow and Buffalo – 75 lpd.  Total livestock and poultry water demand during 2025 will be 0.011889741 BCM, whereas the present demand is 0.011323563 BCM (Table 4.3).

Chapter: V- Strategic Action Plan for Irrigation in Malkangiri District under PMKSY

The strategic action plan aims to provide irrigation to the rainfed farming systems in the blocks of Malkangiri district. The district is relatively rich in gross irrigated area (45.6%) and only 54.4% of the total cropped area is under rainfed agriculture. Out of seven blocks, in three blocks irrigated area more than 40% of the TCA and in remaining four blocks irrigated area is very low (5.0% to 38.4% of the TCA). There is wide variation in term of irrigation development among the blocks and it varied from 5.0 % to a maximum of 98.3% of the total cropped area. Particularly, rainfed farming subjected to high risk of production due to drought and other climatic variability. This is threatening to the livelihood security of rural mass and weakening the socio-economic conditions leading to instability in socio-political conditions in the district. In view of these, providing assured and/or protective source of water for irrigation and to overcome the drought like situation through integrated approach under PMKSY is proposed in this section by involving inter developmental departments and other local institutions in the district. The percent irrigated area to the total cropped area of the district is 45.6% with huge gap between the ultimate irrigation potential and the present net irrigated area. There is wide variation in term of irrigation development among the blocks and it varied from 5.0% in Kudumulugum block to a maximum of 98.3% of the total cropped area is under irrigation in Kalimela block. To address this inequality in irrigation development in the district, the blocks have been prioritized into high and low priority blocks for the irrigation development under PMKSY. The strategic approach is planned and proposed to bring the high priority blocks to at least 50% of the area net sown area under irrigation. To achieve objectives, PMKSY will strategize by focusing on end-to end solution in irrigation supply chain, viz., water sources, distribution network, efficient farm level applications, extension services on new technologies & information etc. Strategies and approach followed in preparation of DIP is detailed in section A.1.4 of this report.

5.1 Prioritization of Blocks for Strategic Action Plan

The detailed strategic plan of Malkangiri District has been prepared based on prioritizing the blocks. Blocks are grouped into high and low priority blocks based on NSA, percent of NSA under irrigation, ST/SC population, and percent of wastelands and stage of GWD etc. Apart from these, ranks given by Officers from the participating Department are also considered and priority blocks are finalized in consultation with the various departments. The perspective plan provides strategic road map for implementation of component wise planned activities of PMSKY in a holistic approach for increasing area under irrigation. This also provides a strategic direction for development and management of rainfed area in the District and scope for improvements of livelihoods of the rural community through minimizing failure of crops due to rainfall variability.
