Putting in place the right policies supported by strategic action plans resulted in successful achievement of double digit growth during the year 2015-16, justifying the outcome oriented plan allocations. Monitoring of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) at apex level paid dividends. Despite deficit rainfall of over 6%, adverse seasonal conditions and persisting revenue deficits, the GSDP of Andhra Pradesh, as per the advance estimates and at constant (2011-12) market prices has registered an impressive growth rate of 10.99%. The Gross Value Added (GVA) at constant (2011-12) basic prices grew by 10.50% with all the sectors of the economy, namely Agriculture(8.40%), Industries (11.13%) and Services sector (11.39%) showing encouraging growth performance. The priorities of the government continue to be in broad consonance with the state’s development Vision. Allocations have been made to various departments, keeping in view the outcomes envisaged under the mission based strategy. Certain new schemes have been proposed under the current year budget. However, as we move along, the ideas get firmed up to prioritize the allocations in such a way that double digit growth becomes sustainable. Adequate care has been taken to ensure that allocations are earmarked under Scheduled Castes Sub-Plan (SCSP) and Tribal Sub-Plan (TSP) as per the respective population percentages of 2011 Census. The government is equally committed to development and welfare, and reflecting the genuine commitment to farmers, disadvantaged sections and infrastructure creation, the sectors of Rural Development, Welfare of SCs, STs, BCs and Minorities and Water resources get the highest share in the plan budget 2016-17, with more than 50% of the total plan outlay accounted by these sectors alone. Social sector gets due preference in this budget. A total of Rs. 4913444.00 Lakh is provided in the plan budget for the year 2016-17 to implement various schemes/initiatives.

It is the bed rock of the state’s economy. Out of the total population of the state about 63% live in rural areas eking their livelihood from Agriculture and allied activities. It is a major source of income to the state’s economy. Agriculture is the back bone of state’s economy contributing about 29% to the Gross Value Added (GVA) of the state. Agriculture is on top of the State Government’s agenda and Government aims at transforming the Agriculture and allied sectors into a dynamic and high growth sector. The main goal of the Government is to make agriculture profitable, cost effective, more productive and sustainable. Agriculture should be resilient to climate change. Accordingly, the primary Sector Mission was launched as one of the seven (7) missions as part of “Swarna Andhra Pradesh-2029”. The present day challenge of the sector is not only to provide food security to the growing population but also to ensure sustainable income to the farming community. All efforts are focused towards increase in the productivity levels of all crops with reduced farm expenditure. Andhra Pradesh has five different types of soils viz., red soils, black soils, delta alluvial soils, coastal and laterite soils saline and alkaline soils. Sand, silt and clay are the basic types of soil and most soils are made up of a combination of these three. The texture of the soil, how it looks and feels, depends upon the amount of each one in that particular soil. There are various types of soils and the formation of soil is primarily influenced by major factors such as climate, altitude and composition of bedrock etc. The Agriculture growth in the state continues to be the key factor for improving state’s economy, accounting more than one fifth of GVA and two thirds of the population for source of livelihood. There is an urgent need to respond not only to sustain the agricultural production but also to the diversified market demands, export opportunities and environmental concerns. These challenges can be met through revamping of extension, strong Research-Extension linkage and evolving eco- friendly technology for improved crop production and so on. Major thrust is needed in the areas of seed replacement by quality seed, INM, IPM, efficient water 3 management, organic farming, trainings, credit, Insurance Support, and ICT etc. Keeping the upcoming demands both in qualitative and quantitative terms, a growth rate of 6 % is proposed for the 12th Five Year Plan. A total amount of Rs.128177.00 lakh is provided in the budget 2016-17 for implementing various agriculture programmes/schemes to the Agriculture department. Of which Rs.5000.00 lakh is provided under RIDF, Rs.44,396.00 lakh under Central Assistance to State Development Plan and Rs.78,781.00 lakh as State Development Plan including Matching State Share to CASDP. RIDF DROUGHT PROOFING: Department of Agriculture is taking up a comprehensive program in 6.00 lakh ha of dry land area to ensure that no farmer will be forced into a situation of distress by crop failures. The program aims at diversifying the crop systems, integrate livestock in production systems, securing crops against drought spells through establishing extensive critical irrigation to all rainfed farmers, establish reliable service delivery in seed supply, livestock services etc. High cost debt of farmers in distress with low- cost loans. Strategic approaches like varietal replacement, water conservation furrows, farm ponds, are being promoted alongwith protective and life saving irrigation measures by using rain guns and encouraging farm ponds under ‘Panta Sanjeevani’ scheme to mitigate of dry spells.
