3. SWOT analysis S.NStrengthsWeaknessesOpportunitiesThreats 1Strong knowledge base and area under horticulture Poor irrigation facilities 9.2 lakh ha of barren cultivable land Pests, diseases and Climatic factors 2Crop based associations and SHG Infrastructure base Absentee owners and selling of produce before harvest Productivity enhancement Price fluctuations and market gluts 3Nursery infrastructure Preponderance of small orchards Strengthening of SHG for adoption of GAP protocol Not so encouraging response from private sector to invest in PH infrastructure 4Diverse climatic conditions suitable for various crops Weak PH infrastructure Farmers’ direct markets thro SHG

4. SWOT analysis S.NStrengthsWeaknessesOpportunitiesThreats 5Premium varieties of Mango, Pomegranate and orange Retailers not keen to enter in contracts with large number of small farmers Vast domestic market which is yet untapped. 6.8 AEZs and the infrastructure developed in them Growers at the mercy of commission agents and APMC PH infrastructure through PPP and Marketing board Inadequate processing units Growing trend of consumption of processed foods

10. Strategy for horticulture development- Area expansion : Strictly on cluster basis Area expansion only if, in a village, there is a minimum of 10 ha of fruit crops and Spices and 5 ha for floriculture crops Minimum orchard size of 1acre for fruit crops and spices Main thrust will be on utilisation of barren cultivable lands with access to water resources

12. Strategy for horticulture development- Productivity enhancement Based on Yield Gap Analysis The important tools will be : training of farmers for scientific management, providing water resources, rejuvenation of old orchards, micro irrigation, protected cultivation and INM. Combined application of all these tools/ sub- components

13. Strategy for horticulture development- Post- harvest infrastructure Convergence of schemes of APEDA (AEZ), NHM, RKVY, NMPB and MSAMB (Marketing Board) Small Pack houses at farm level Micro cluster level collection centers through SHG of farmers
