Expansion of Cultivation area through On-Farm Development works. The total WRC Potential Area (WRC PA) is 74,644 hectares which account for 3.54% of the total geographical area. The area under crop production is only 10,363 hectares and the remaining areas of 64,281 hectares need further development. 2. Enhancement of Productivity and increased area coverage : The average productivity of Kharif rice is about 1.5 MT/ha. and summer rice is 1.70 MT/ha. The yield levels is low compared to national productivity and production. Attempts is being made to increase the productivity from present position to 3.50 MT/Ha. 3. Adoption of improved package of practices 4. Agril. Machineries & Equipments : • Farm Power availability at National level is 2.5 Kw/Ha • Farm Power availability in Mizoram is 0.25 Kw/Ha • During 2010-2011 State continue to extend subsidy of Power Tiller @ Rs.90,000/No(CSS & State Plan Fund) to 100 Nos of Farmers 5. Oil Palm Cultivation: Oil Palm Development Programme under the Integrated Scheme of Oilseeds, Pulses, Oil Palm and Maize (ISOPOM) CSS was taken up (75:25 basis) in Mizoram since 2004-2005. Major thrust is given on the oil palm cultivation in order to decrease area under jhum cultivation where the net revenue returns per hactare tend to be higher. The area covered under Oil Palm since inception of the scheme (2004-2005) and up to 2009-2010 is 6521 ha. spreading in Kolasib, Mamit, Serchhip and Lunglei Districts During 2010-2011, area under expansion 1877.50 ha out of 2500 ha is achievedcovering the District of Lawngtlai, Lunglei, Serchhip, Mamit and Kolasib District . 6. STATE POLICY AND INITIATIVES • New Land Use Policy (NLUP) is an integrated & comprehensive planning and implementation of the same to translate into action the vision of the Government to make “New Mizoram”, through Transformation Development Model 6.1 Sector-Wise Schemes • Schemes under Agriculture: • (i) WRC - on flat land - 12,000 • (ii) WRC – terrace – 10,000 • (iii) Sugarcane Cultivation –1,000 • (iv) Oil Palm Cultivation – 8,600 TOTAL : 31,600 6.2 Physical Target and Financial Outlay of NLUP for 2010 – 2011 Sl Items Units 2010-2011 No. Physical Financial Target Outlay 1.
