Introduction

Due to the various environmental and human impacts on the development process in year 2020, several major challenges need to be overcome for the continuation of development of the agricultural sector. These include identifying areas that need to be overcome from time to time, such as epidemics, agricultural sector reforms, new vision, formulation of national agricultural policy, adoption of new technology, adoption of new cultivation methods (cultivation in protected houses, and identification of their diversity). Also, continuous agricultural development has become a major challenge in the face of the Covid 19 epidemic, which has been on the rise since early 2020.

However, the State Ministry of Agriculture is currently mobilizing to tackle the development challenges of the entire agricultural sector by bringing together broader areas such as irrigation, livestock and rural economic development which is moving together with the field of agriculture.

Furthermore, global warming and climate change are having a major impact on agriculture and human livelihoods. Disasters such as landslides, droughts, and floods have a severe impact on agriculture, and to prevent the recession steps have been taken to the key areas identified such as climate mitigation, marketing, human resource development, increasing crop productivity, reducing wildlife and post-harvest losses. Steps have been taken to develop areas such as

In the journey towards prosperity through a sustainable agro economy, it will be our responsibility to further strengthen the livelihood development of the rural people and the programme carried out by the Government to uplift sustainable agriculture.

Accordingly, in the area of regional development, the agriculture sector should identify areas that need to be further developed & have been the focus of less development so far and take steps to increase the productivity of agricultural production by properly managing their resources. It is also felt that the rural economy could become self-sufficient by improving dairy farming and irrigation technology, which are linked to the old agricultural way of life, and therefore plans have been prepared for further develop on these sectors, and plans for the promotion of sustainable agriculture has been launched among the Sustainable Development Goals to be achieved by 2030.

(3.1) Divisional Economic Centers - Development Plan for Year 2021

Establishment of Major Economic Centers and Network Collection Centers to collect not only vegetables and fruits but also grain and supplementary food crop products is very important from time to time.

I. These collection centers will be located at Jaffna, Wellawaya, Polonnaruwa, Wariyapola, Hambantota, Ampara, Batticaloa and 10 centers will be established at 03 centers in Nuwara Eliya at a cost of Rs. 200.0 Mn.

II. Rs. 300.0 Mn was spent to install solar panels and other related devices to generate electricity for 15 economic centers.

Sustainable Development Goals and Objectives Expected to be Achieved

Goal 12. Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns

- Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns. Worldwide consumption and production — a driving force of the global economy — rest on the use of the natural environment and resources in a way that continues to have destructive impacts on the planet.

- 12.3 by 2030 halve the per capita global food waste at the retail and consumer level, and reduce food losses along production and supply chains including post-harvest losses

Proposed Indicators

- Global Food Loss Indicator [or other indicator to be developed to track the share of food lost or wasted in the value chain after harvest

Primary goal Target applies to: - Goal 12. Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns

Background

At present 15 Economic Centers have been established in 10 districts throughout Sri Lanka. These economic centers have created a market for farmers' agricultural products, which can be further expanded and networked to make it easier for farmers to sell their produce, minimize post-harvest losses and reduce transportation costs. It is also important to involve all farmers in these economic centers in order to maintain them more efficiently and effectively and to provide them with a fixed price.

Description - The details of the location of the Economic Centers are given below.

S. District Economic Centers No. 1 Colombo i. Narahenpita ii. Meegoda iii. Piliyandala iv. Ratmalana 2 Gampaha v. Welisara vi. Veyangoda 3 Matale vii. Dambulla 4 Anuradhapura viii.

Kilinochchi

Issues and Challenges

The geographical location of the economic centers indicates that the distance of these economic centers from largely cultivated / agricultural areas is very high.

Ex: Hambantota, Moneragala, Anuradhapura, Northern Province

Accordingly, buying or transporting agricultural products, especially vegetables, fruits and grains from farmers, not only increases the cost but also increases the damage to the crop afterwards. This will ultimately lead to a decrease in the income of the farmer.

Future proposals for the year 2021

 Construction of Agricultural Production Collection Centers and Providing Solar Power It is hoped that the provision of solar power as an alternative energy source to all economic hubs will reduce the high electricity bill costs of the respective hubs as well as contribute to the national grid.  Minimize post harvest damage  Minimize the gap between Farm and Market - (market accessibility)

(3.2) Paddy Marketing Board

Vision To be the leading Government mediator relating to purchasing, storing, processing and marketing paddy and rice.

Mission To successfully implement the process of purchasing, storing, processing and marketing of paddy and rice with the involvement of a staff fully equipped with the knowledge and skills to satisfy both the producer and the consumer.

Functions as per Rules and Regulations: -

 Purchasing paddy at guaranteed prices to ensure the selling price of paddy farmers

 Maintaining paddy and rice market prices stable

 Creating food security for Sri Lankans

 Maintaining stocks of paddy and stocks of rice

Sustainable Development Goals Expected to be Achieved

Goal 1 - To ensure social security for the poor, increase the provision of basic services

Goal 2 - Provide adequate food throughout the year

Goal 3 - To increase the contribution of women to the economic process

Goal 8 - Sustainable, integrated and sustainable economic growth

Goal 12 - Ensuring sustainable consumption and production patterns

(3.6) Institute of Post Harvest Management Technology

Vision To be the center of excellence in sustainable postharvest development for national food security.

Mission Sustainable development of national food security through efficient and effective postharvest technological interventions to strengthen the supply and value chains of the agricultural produce and products with high quality and safe food, to cater to the domestic and export markets at competitive price.

Introduction - This institute was established on 19th June 2000 by the Extraordinary Gazette Notification No. 1137/10 of the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka under the provisions of the State Agricultural Constitution Act No. 11 of 1972. The main role of the institute is to carry out research and development activities related to post crop management of agricultural crops, training, extension, technical consultancy services and laboratory services.

Functions

 Identifying and prioritizing the research needs and implementation of programmes related to harvesting, handling and transportation, storage, primary and secondary processing, by-product utilization and quality control of paddy, rice, other grains, fruits and vegetables, other field crops, spices and cut flowers for the development of the postharvest technology in Sri Lanka.

 Increasing the nutritional status of the country through mechanization of postharvest technologiesto minimize the primary and secondary processing cost and thereby improving the nutritional quality of the agricultural food crops

 Develop and transfer sustainable agro-based industries at rural level in order to increase income and employment opportunitiesof the rural farm sector and thereby uplifting their living status.

 Minimize the postharvest losses occurring in grains, field crops, fruits, vegetables, spice crops and cut flowers due to adoption of improper post havest handling, storage and processing techniques.

Sustainable Development Goals and Objectives -

Objective 2 - To conduct long term research on food security, minimize post harvest damage and food security. Objective 5 - To get the contribution of women in value chain activities Objective 12 - To formalize sustainable consumption patterns
