Executive Summary

Government introduced the concept of Outcome Budget during financial

year 2005-06. Since then “Outcome Budget” has become an integral and

important part of budgeting process. It is an endeavor of the Government to

convert “outlays” into “outcomes” by planning expenditure, fixing appropriate

targets, quantifying deliverables in each scheme and bringing out “outcomes” of

Budget Outlays provided for each scheme/programme. It is also intended to serve

as a policy tool to establish effective linkage amongst allocation/disbursement of

public funds, empowerment of women and weaker sections, transparency,

measurable performance, delivery mechanism and review of past performance and

policy initiatives etc.

Monitoring Mechanism

Department of Agriculture and Cooperation (DAC) places special emphasis

on monitoring and evaluation of programs being implemented by the

Department for which comprehensive multi-level system of monitoring and

evaluation, has been evolved. Salient features of Monitoring Mechanism are:

a) Monitoring mechanism is in-built in guidelines of each scheme to ensure

achieving objectives of schemes.

b) Central Sector Plan Schemes and Centrally Sponsored Schemes are also

monitored through periodical progress reports, received from

implementing agencies, indicating financial and physical progress.

c) Implementing Agencies including State Governments are required to

submit performance-cum-achievement report at the end of the financial

year.

d) Implementing Agencies of plan schemes are required to maintain

subsidiary accounts of Government grant, which are subjected to

statutory audit.

e) Concurrent evaluation studies are undertaken through reputed and

independent research institutions/ organizations to evaluate performance

of various schemes/ programmes at field level, and to assess impact of

these programs.

f) State Level Sanctioning Committees (SLSCs) have been constituted to

sanction projects and monitor progress of sanctioned projects/ schemes

under Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana (RKVY). National Agricultural

Insurance Scheme (NAIS) is monitored through State Governments and

Implementing Agencies, who report regarding coverage and payment of

claims periodically. State Level Coordination Committees on Crop

Insurance of States, meet twice a year and representatives of DAC attend

these meetings.

g) The National Food Security Mission has a strong mechanism of monitoring

and evaluation with the involvement of all the implementing agencies

and the line departments. At the district level, monitoring will be

undertaken by District Food Security Mission Executive Committee

(DFSMEC) supported by the Project Management Team. Close monitoring

of physical and financial targets of various program interventions would be

done by the monitoring teams. The State Department of Economics and

Statistics will be involved in adopting the prescribed format for data

collection pertaining to different parameters of the Mission for monitoring

to suit local requirements. At the State level, the activities of the Mission

will be monitored by a Committee under the Chairmanship of the State

Mission Director with members from the line departments, SAUs, Lead

Bank, NABARD, ICAR institutes and Crop Development Directorates of

DAC. At the National level, the activities of the Mission will be monitored

3Department of Agriculture & Cooperation3

by a Committee under the Chairmanship of the Mission Director with

members from DAC, ICAR, SAUs, CDDs, research institutions concerned

and officials of State Departments concerned. The eight Crop

Development Directorates will be involved in monitoring of the Mission

activities in States assigned to them. The National Level Monitoring Teams

(NLMOTs) would monitor activities of the Mission in each State.

h) Other Important Centrally Sponsored Schemes like National Mission on

Oilseeds and Oilpalm (NMOOP), are monitored by National Level

Monitoring Committees (NALMOTs) comprising officials from concerned

Crop Directorates, ICAR, SAU, State Departments of Agriculture and DAC

representatives. These teams undertake periodic field visits to monitor

implementation of various components of schemes and based on field/

tour reports, states are advised to take corrective measures.

Public Information System

Information, Education and Communication (IEC) plays a vital role in

creating awareness, mobilizing people and making development participatory

through advocacy and by transferring knowledge, skills and techniques to

people. IEC plays two important roles – informative and persuasive, and as

such is crucial for bringing about requisite social mobilization and facilitating

participatory development.

DAC has adopted a multi-pronged strategy for creating awareness,

mobilizing farmers and ensuring their active participation in various schemes/

programs, and various initiatives taken in this regard are as under:

a) For implementation of major schemes, State Departments of Agriculture

undertake publicity campaigns to create awareness amongst farmers by

organizing Kissan Melas, Seminars/ Workshops. Promotional activities like

State/ District level Workshops, interactive live programs on Door

Darshan/ All India Radio, setting up of Stalls in National/ Regional

Exhibitions etc. are undertaken by Implementing Agencies.

b) Publicity campaigns by distributing posters and handbills printed in

vernacular language, wall paintings, advertisement in newspapers and

rural oriented magazines are carried out by Implementing Agencies

c) Farmers’ training programs are organized to disseminate information on

improved production and protection technologies

d) Scheme details as also progress of implementation of various schemes is

hosted on Department’s website (http//www.agricoop.nic.in), and is up-

dated regularly to bring information in public domain, DAC portal

provides information on schemes and programs of DAC; Acts, Rules,

Reports, publications, documents, conferences, seminars, office circulars/

notices, agricultural news etc.

DAC is supporting e-governance activities in Agriculture and allied

Departments of State Government through AGRISNET, a state sector Mission

Mode Project (MMP) which aims at providing improved services to farming

crores, to advance interest free loans to States and Central/State agencies to

support their working capital and other expenses on procurement interventions for

perishable agri-horticultural commodities when prices crash and farmers need to be

protected. Alternatively, when prices are anticipated to increase substantially, then

procurement of these commodities could be undertaken from farm gate/mandi to

reduce the cost of intermediation and make them available at a cheaper price to the

consumers. The intervention is thus expected to regulate price volatility of

agricultural and horticultural commodities both when there is price rise or vice-

versa. Currently it is operational only for onion and potato.

integrated natural resource management. It has also mandated to identify gaps in

input supply, credit availability, dissemination of appropriate technology for

development of rainfed areas.

NATIONAL CROP INSURANCE PROGRAMME


Keeping in view the risks involved in Agriculture and to insure the farming

community against various risks, the Ministry of Agriculture introduced a crop

insurance scheme in 1985 (CCIS) and thereafter brought improvements in the

erstwhile scheme(s) from time to time based on the experience gained and views

of the stakeholders, States, farming community etc. Till 31/10/2013, Department

of Agriculture & Cooperation was implementing four Central Sector Crop Insurance

Schemes namely (i) National Agricultural Insurance Scheme (NAIS) (ii) Pilot

Modified National Agricultural Insurance Scheme (MNAIS) (iii) Pilot Weather Based

Crop Insurance Scheme (WBCIS) & (iv) Pilot Coconut Palm Insurance Scheme

(CPIS). With a view to make crop insurance schemes more farmers’ friendly, three

pilot schemes of MNAIS, WBCIS and CPIS have recently been evaluated. Based on

the recommendations of evaluation studies, experience gained through

implementation of crop insurance schemes and views of the stakeholders, States

and appraisal agencies, Government has approved a re-structured Central Sector

crop insurance scheme namely, “National Crop Insurance Programme (NCIP)” by

merging MNAIS, WBCIS & CPIS (as its components).

RKVY has emerged as the principal instrument in financing development of

agriculture and allied sectors in the country. Its convergence with other

Government of India schemes like MGNREGS has helped bolster development of the

agrarian economy. Projects under RKVY have mainly been taken up from the

District & State Agriculture Plans which has resulted in increased synergy between

agricultural planning and implementation of schemes, which has played a crucial

role in promoting the holistic development of the agriculture and allied sector.

Period 12th

Plan 2015-16

Allocation 63246.00 4500.00


RKVY continues in the XII Plan with some modifications made on the basis of

the experience gained during its implementation in the XI Plan and suggestions of

the States. From the financial year 2014-15 onwards RKVY funding is provided to

the States through three streams viz. Production Growth, Infrastructure & Assets

and Sub Schemes. 20% of annual outlay is for sub-schemes, 10% as flexi fund

which can be utilized by the states either for Production Growth or for

Infrastructure & Assets development projects depending upon State specific

needs/priorities. The minimum allocation of funds to production growth stream has

been waved off. Thus, the States are able to allocate their entire RKVY Normal

allocation to Infrastructure & Assets stream.

OTHER REFORM MEASURES AND POLICY INITIATIVES


Based on feedback received from the States and other Stakeholders,

experiences gained in implementation during XI Plan, RKVY has been restructured

for implementation during XII Five year plan. Restructured RKVY framework will

bolster infrastructure development in Agriculture sector. While the responsibility of

formulation, sanction and implementation of the projects shall continue to rest

primarily with the State Governments, special schemes may be launched under

RKVY as national priorities as strategic interventions by Government of India.

From the financial year 2014-15 onwards RKVY funding is being provided to

states through three Streams viz, Production Growth, Infrastructure & Assets and

Sub-schemes of which 20% is for sub-schemes. 10% of RKVY fund is provisioned

as flexi fund from which States can undertake either production growth or

infrastructure & assets projects depending upon State specific needs/priorities. The

minimum allocation of funds to production growth stream has been waved off.

Thus, the States are able to allocate their entire RKVY Normal allocation to

Infrastructure & Assets Stream.

2. National Mission on Agriculture Extension and Technology

a. Sub mission on Agriculture Extension & Training

As a step towards Revitalization of Agricultural Extension System a new

institutional arrangement for technology dissemination through Agriculture

Technology Management Agency (ATMA) is under implementation. To further

strengthen the extension system, the following provisions have been subsequently

made in the modified ATMA Scheme:

(i) Increased provision of specialist and functionary support at different

levels viz. Gender Coordinator and Assistant Technology Managers

(ATMs) at the Block level;

(ii) Increased consolidated remuneration for the contractual posts viz.

State Coordinators, BTMs, ATMs and Computer Programmer;

(iii) Increased contingency amount for Farmer Friend from Rs.4000 /year

to Rs.6000 /year;

(iv) Revision in ATMA Cafeteria (i.e. list of extension related activities to

choose from) enhanced unit costs for some of the activities;

(v) Innovative Technology Dissemination (ITD) Activities: Use of ITD like

Display Boards, Pico-Projectors, low cost films, hand held devices,

mobile based services etc. and activities like Kala Jatha are included as

mandatory activities;


(vi) Provision for operational expenses for Farmers Advisory Committees at

State, District and Block levels comprising a group of farmers to advise

and provide inputs to the administrative bodies at each level;

The Toll Free No. has been changed from 1551 to ‘1800-180-1551’ to

facilitate accessibility of KCC services through mobile telephones and telephone

network of private service providers. Kisan Knowledge Management System

(KKMS) has been developed to provide instant information backup to Call Centre

Agents for answering farmer queries.

The nation wide SMS Portal for farmers has now enabled all

Departments, Offices & Organization of Government of India & State

Government (down to the block level) to send information, provide services &

give advisories to farmers in their local language in respect of their location and

for preference of crops/agriculture practices.

b. Sub Scheme on Agricultural Mechanization

To cope up with the ever increasing demand for testing of newly developed

agricultural machines and equipments, DAC has authorized 24 State Agricultural

Universities (SAUs)/ICAR Institutions and 5 State Agricultural Departments as

Authorized Testing Centers for testing and certifying certain categories of

agricultural machinery and equipments namely, hand tools, Manual Operated

equipments / Machines etc. Relevant information has been made available on the

departmental website for wider publicity among the users/manufacturers. For

tractor mounted combine harvesters, Central Institute of Agricultural Engineering

(CIAE), Bhopal and Punjab Agricultural University (PAU), Ludhiana have been

designated as authorized testing centers in addition to FMTTI, Hisar.

3. Mission on Integrated Development of Horticulture

New interventions have been included in the National Bamboo Mission such

as establishment of Hi-Tech Nurseries, Rehabilitation of Tissue Culture units,

Creation of Water Resources, besides revision of cost norms for area expansion,

technology transfer and HRD, organizing workshops/ seminars, establishment of

marketing infrastructure etc., to provide better incentives to farmers and artisans

for adopting improved technology.

Launching of CHAMAN Project

Success of Horticulture sector is dependent on availability of accurate and

timely information relating to land, weather, production, market arrival, price etc.

This has been a challenging task. With a view to address this challenge, a project

on Coordinated Programme on Horticulture Assessment and Management using

geo-informatics (CHAMAN) has been commissioned during 2014-15 through the

Mahalnobis National Crop Forecast Centre (MNCFC), New Delhi and IASRI, New


Delhi. The focus of the project will be on using remote sensing technology to

generate data on area, production and productivity of important horticulture crops.

4. National Food Security Mission

From 2014-15, Government of India has approved Cotton programme under

National Food Security Mission (NFSM)-Commercial Crops (CC). Under NFSM, the

focus has been given on cropping system approach in cotton where cotton is grown

under mono cropping, mixed cropping, relay cropping, intercropping in the

country. The cropping system approach has focus on the interventions on useful

transfer of technology viz., frontline demonstration (FLD) on intercropping Deshi /

Extra Long Staple Cotton, Trials on High Density Planting System (HDPS), besides,

Insecticide Resistance Management (IRM), On Line Pest Monitoring and Advisory

Services (OPMAS), through ICAR/SAUs etc., during 2015-16, the following

interventions are to be proposed under NFSM-Cotton Based Cropping System.

i. Insecticide Resistance Management (IRM) by CICR, Nagpur.

ii. On Line pest Monitoring and Advisory Services (OPMAS) by NCIPM.

iii. Front Line Demonstration (FLD), on intercropping, Desi or ELS cotton.

iv. Trials on High Density Planting System (HDPS)


Government has approved a re-structured Central Sector crop insurance

scheme namely, “National Crop Insurance Programme (NCIP)” by merging MNAIS,

WBCIS & CPIS and rolling back NAIS with effect from Rabi 2013-14. However, on

the representation of some States NAIS was allowed in few States during Rabi

2013-14. Again NAIS has been allowed at the option of States for the year 2014-

15.

National Crop Income Insurance Scheme

With a view to better serve the interest of farmers, Government is desirous

to develop a new Crop Insurance Scheme to protect them against both yield and

price fluctuations. The consultation with various stakeholders including State

Governments and Farmers organizations are going on for the purpose. Based on

the views / suggestions of the States/UTs and other stakeholders, a suitable

decision would be taken by the Government for implementation of a new crop

income insurance scheme namely National Crop Income Insurance Scheme (NCIIS)

during 2015-16 on pilot basis in selected districts/States.

6. Integrated Scheme on Agricultural Marketing (ISAM)

In pursuance of Budget announcement in July, 2014, the Department of

Agriculture and Cooperation has formulated two new schemes (i) Central Sector

Scheme for Promotion of National Agricultural Market through Agri -Tech

Infrastructure Fund )ATIF ( and (ii) Central Sector Scheme for Creation of a Price


Stabilization Fund (PSF) for Procurement and Distribution of Perishable Agricultural

and Horticultural Commodities. ATIF has been approved and is to be implemented

during 2014-15 to 2016-17. PSF has been approved with an allocation of Rs. 500

Cr. and is to be implemented during 2014-15 to 2016-17.

Another important aspect of Agri marketing being pursued by this Department

is reform of the Agri marketing Sector. In fact agri-marketing is a State subject and

this Department has been pursuing the States to adopt market reforms measures

which will promote alternative competitive channels of marketing and increased

private funding of marketing infrastructure to benefit the farmers. As a result of this

advocacy, 16 states have so far carried out marketing reforms to provide alternate

channels of marketing such as setting up of private markets, contract farming and

direct marketing. This financial year in 2014-15, to control the inflationary trends

of fruits and vegetables the Department issued advisories to deregulate fruits and

vegetables outside the APMC yards. Further, the Small Farmers Agribusiness

Consortium (SFAC) has established the first Kisan Mandi in Delhi to provide

another platform for sale to growers associations/FPOs to enable them to take

advantage of the huge demand for fruits and vegetables in Delhi. Likewise the

funds from the ATIF Scheme will be used to implement e marketing platform across

states to implement the reform agenda.


Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchai Yojana will provide end-to end solutions in

irrigation supply chain, viz. water sources, and distribution network and farm level

applications. This programme will focus on

a) Ensuring access to water to every agriculture farm ( Har Khet Ko Pani );

b) Increasing agricultural production and productivity by increasing availability

and efficient use of water.

c) Providing flexibility and autonomy to States in the progress of planning and

executing programmes,

d) Ensuring a holistic approach by way of preparation of comprehensive District

and State Irrigation Plans.

District Irrigation Plans (DIPs) shall be the cornerstone for planning and

implementation of PMSKY. DIPs will identify the gaps in irrigation infrastructure vis-

à-vis infrastructure currently available and resources that would be added during

XII Plan from other ongoing schemes (both State and Central) like Mahatma

Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS), Backward

Regions Grant Fund (BGRF), Rashtriya krishi Vikas Yojana (RKVY), Integrated

Watershed Management Programme (IWMP), Accelerated Irrigation Benefit

Programme (AIBP), National Mission for Sustainable Agriculture (NMSA) etc.


PMKSY will adopt a dynamic annual fund allocation methodology that will

mandate States to allocate more funds to irrigation sector for becoming eligible to

access PMKSY funds. Inter State allocation of PMKSY funds will be decided based on

(i) share of percentage of unirrigated area in the State vis-à-vis National average

and (ii) increase in percentage share of expenditure on Irrigation and related

activities in State Plan expenditure in the previous year over the three years prior

to it.

National Rainfed Area Authority

National Rainfed Area Authority has been established with the objective to

prepare a perspective plan and road map for holistic and sustainable development

of rainfed farming areas and evolve common guidelines for all government

schemes. Identify rainfed areas and prepare watershed dev. programmes for

integrated natural resource management. It has also mandated to identify gaps in

input supply, credit availability, dissemination of appropriate technology for

development of rainfed areas.

8. National Mission on Sustainable Agriculture

Paramparagat Krishi Vikas Yojana

This Ministry is promoting Organic Farming as a sub-component under

National Mission on Sustainable Agriculture (NMSA). In order to promote

participatory certification of Organic Farming in a cluster approach, so as to bring

down its costs, some components, namely (a) adoption of organic farming

through cluster approach under PGS (PGS certification), (b) support to PGS

system for online data management and residue analysis, (c) training and

demonstration on organic farming, (d) organic village adoption for manure

management and biological nitrogen harvesting, have been clubbed together as a

cluster based programme and named Paramparagat Krishi Vikas Yojana.

It is intend to enhance the area under organic farming to 5.0 lakh hectares

within a period of 3 years. It is targeted to cover 10000 clusters of farmers (

about 50 farmers in each cluster ) in three years with an expenditure of Rs 1495

crore. 3300 clusters shall be covered in the first year with an expenditure of Rs

500 crore.

.


GENDER PERSPECTIVE IN AGRICULTURE

1. The Department of Agricultural & Cooperation (DAC) Ministry of Agriculture is

promoting gender interventions in Agriculture Sector in line with the provisions

of the National Agricultural Policy 2000 & National Policy on Farmers 2007. DAC

is promoting mainstreaming of gender concerns in this sector by incorporating

‘Pro-women Initiatives’ and earmarking at least 30% of benefits and resources

for women under all its major beneficiary oriented Schemes and Programmes.

2. A National Gender Resource Centre in Agriculture (NGRCA) set up in the

Department is committed to bring gender concerns to the centre stage and act

as a focal point for convergence of all gender related activities & issues in

agriculture & allied sectors; add gender dimension to agriculture policies &

programmes and render advisory/ advocacy services to the States/ UTs to help

them ensure that their policies and programmes in agriculture are fully

engendered.

3. To ensure that budgetary commitments of various schemes of DAC take into

account the needs and requirements of Women in Agriculture and a

proportionate flow of the public expenditure is made for women farmers, a

Gender Budgeting Cell (GBC) has also been set up in the NGRCA, Directorate of

Extension, Pusa.

A. Current Initiatives by NGRCA and GBC

• Gender Sensitization Modules (GSM) developed for sensitization of extension

functionaries is being condensed to half a day module so as to ensure its

delivery through all ongoing programmes being organized at various Training

Institutes. MANAGE has been entrusted with the task of developing the ‘Capsule

Module on Gender Learning’ focusing on the practical tips of Gender Budgeting

and Accounting and duly roping in the recommendations and the outcome of

several Action Research Studies undertaken by NGRCA as well as policy

decisions of Ministry of Finance, Ministry of Women and Child Development and

Ministry of Agriculture.

• Dissemination of information on Gender Friendly Tools (GFT)/ equipments used

in crop production, crop processing, post harvest management and other allied

4. NATIONAL HORTICULTURE BOARD

National Horticulture Board (NHB) was set up by Government of India in April

1984. The NHB is registered as a Society under the Societies Registration Act 1860,

with its headquarters at Gurgaon. Recognizing the fact that the Commercial

Horticulture provides not only food and nutritional security but also paves the way for

crop diversification for better economic gain and risk mitigation for the farmers; the

need for promoting this sector by concerted efforts to private investment through

commercial horticulture projects, has been visualized. This sector includes area

expansion under commercial horticulture projects in clusters, post harvest

management related infrastructure combined with public and private sector initiatives

of technology development and transfer, product promotion, marketing & export. With


this vision, National Horticulture Board is striving to accelerate the process of the

development of commercial horticulture in potential clusters by organizing the

producer farmers for better utilization of resources, transfer of technology and gaining

benefit of scaling up.

Aims & objectives:

i) Development of Hi-tech Commercial horticulture in identified belts and make

such areas vibrant with horticultural activity.

ii) Development of modern post-harvest management infrastructure as an

integral part of area expansion projects or as common facility for cluster of

projects.

iii) Development of integrated, energy efficient cold chain infrastructure for fresh

horticulture produce.

iv) Popularization of identified new technologies / tools / techniques for

commercialization / adoption, after carrying out technology need

assessment.

v) Assistance in securing availability of quality planting material by promoting

setting up of scion and root stock banks / mother plant nurseries and

carrying out accreditation / rating of horticulture nurseries and need based

imports of planting material.

vi) Promotion and market development of fresh horticulture produce.

vii) Promotion of field trials of newly developed/imported planting materials and

other farm inputs; production technology; PHM protocols, INM and IPM

protocols and promotion of applied R&D programmes for commercialization

of proven technology.

viii) Promotion of applied R & D for standardizing PHM protocols, prescribing

critical storage conditions for fresh horticulture produce, bench marking of

technical standards for cold chain infrastructure etc.

ix) Transfer of technology to producers/farmers and service providers.

x) Promotion of consumption of horticulture produce and products.

xi) Setting up of Common Facility Centers in Horticulture Parks and Agri-Export

Zones.

xii) Strengthen market intelligence system by developing, collecting and

disseminating horticulture database.

xiii) Carrying out studies and surveys to identify constraints and develop short

and long term strategies for systematic development of horticulture and

providing technical services including advisory and consultancy services.
