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. District Irrigation Plan of Malkangiri, Odisha TABLE OF CONTENTS Particulars Page No. A.
