The concerned allied departments at district were oriented about the importance of Comprehensive District Agriculture Plan. Ahmednagar is one of the largest districts in the state of Maharashtra. It is divided into fourteen tahsils. Except Akole tahsil of Ahmednagar district all remaining thirteen tahsils falls under drought prone area. The total area under cultivation is about 12.56 lakh hectares. Ahmednagar is predominantly a agricultural based district. The majority of cultivable area is depend upon monsoon i.e. rainfed. Due to availability of irrigation facilities the productivity of agriculture is comparatively more in irrigated areas than rainfed areas. Hence total agricultural growth in both the rainfed and as well as irrigated areas is required to improve in the XII th Five Year Plan Period. The present document is prepared taking into consideration the present status agriculture and allied sector in Ahmednagar district, potential areas of improvement, available resources and additional infrastructure required for achieving expected 4% growth rate per annum. This document also focuses on the budget required for implementation of various programmes and activities proposed during the plan period. The regional and location specific needs are taken into consideration with present constraints in the development. The purpose of the Comprehensive Agricultural Development Plan is to generate a common development perspective of Ahmednagar district. It also focuses on human, infrastructure and optimal utilization of the available resources for achieving higher levels of livelihood especially for women and underprivileged. While preparing of this comprehensive plan document we have been guided and supported by District Collector Ahmednagar and all progressive farmers of districts. I must thank for them sincerely. The allied department officers put the their innovative programmes to make it more farming system driven.

INTRODUCTION 1.1 Backdrop: Sustained growth in India’s agricultural sector is essential for overall stability of the economy. Agricultural development is also a key to a number of national goals, such as reducing rural poverty, providing food and nutritional security, supplying raw materials for major industries such as textiles, earning foreign exchange through exports and opening up avenues for employment by promoting agro-processing units. Growth in the agricultural sector by contributing to increased rural incomes can also build a strong foundation for consumer demand in rural areas, which in turn can stimulate growth in secondary and tertiary sectors of the economy. Concerned by the slow growth of agriculture and allied sector, the National Development Council (NDC) in its meeting held on 29th May, 2007 envisaged for rejuvenating agricultural and allied sector during the XI th Five Year Plan Period for achieving a growth rate of 4% per annum. Agriculture has always been India’s dominant economic sector and the Green, Blue, White and Yellow revolutions brought about vast changes in the agrarian scene since independence. While the agricultural sector has witnessed many success stories, the economic potential of this economic activity leaves much to be desired and has a long way to go. The growth rate in the agricultural sector has always lagged behind the overall growth rate of the economy. During the Tenth Plan period, while the rate of growth of gross domestic product was 7.8 per cent per annum, the agricultural sector experienced a miniscule growth rate of 2.5 per cent per annum. Indian agriculture is presently at cross roads and one of the major challenges is to reverse deceleration in agricultural growth rates so as to successfully achieve a higher broad- based growth. The state of Maharashtra, like most states in India has witnessed sharp deceleration in agricultural growth rate and rapid economic development in this state has led to continuous decline in the contribution of the agricultural sector to the economy of Maharashtra. A more disturbing feature is that the contribution of agriculture to State Domestic Product is shrinking rapidly from 28 per cent in 1980-81 to 14.2 per cent in 2000-01 as compared to the All India figure of 26 per cent in 2000-01.

The term Administration is used mostly in Government or Public Sector. Administration is the function in industry concern in the determination of policy, co-ordination of finance, production and distribution, the settlement of the compass of the organization and the ultimate control of the two executives. The Science of Business Administration has gradually evolved with the Growth of trade, commerce and industry. Prior to industrial revolution, (which took place some time in the middle of the IS**^ Century.) the scope of Business Administration was limited due to self sufficient economy. But after the Industrial Revolution, the concept of business was totally changed and factory system is developed very drastically. At beginning of the 20*^ Century, the Business Administration evolved and stood in more clearly defined position than ever before. Today in the 21^^ Century Business Administration is emerging as the directing force of Industries, Institutes and Sansthas.
