Policies  Extending Green revolution to areas having less irrigation potential.  Concurrent attention to soil health treatment, water conservation and preservation of bio-diversity.  Technology management to enhance productivity and profitability.  Implementation of programmes considering Agro- climatic factors.  Attracting educated youth to Agriculture Sector and retaining them.

Technological Interventions  Deep ploughing by Tractor drawn M.B Plough / Rotavator  Seedling Root Dip/Nursery Treatment  Weed Management – Chemical/ Mechanical  Line Transplanting / Line Sowing  Use of plastic drum seeder  Use of Transplanter  Use of micro nutrients based on Soil Test results

Outcome Derived  Wide acceptance of Line Sowing and Transplanting  Use of Drum Seeder in up-Land & Medium Land created a new hope  Role of Micro- Nutrient (Zinc Sulphate) in increasing the productivity is well understood by the Farmers  Support of N.G.Os made the task of other stake holder easier  Increase in Yield was significant (up to 50%)

Strategic Plans for Improving Agril Production and Productivity

Crop Demonstration - Rice  155 clusters of each 1,000 ha under Rice Demonstration in different agro-ecological zones like : Rain fed upland eco system – 7 clusters Irrigated hybrid eco system – 20 clusters Rain fed shallow low land – 64 clusters Irrigated HYV rice – 64 clusters  Soil test based nutrient application – soil sample analysis of at least 30 samples for major nutrients and 3 samples for micro nutrients in a patch of 250 hectares.

 New varieties released during last 10 years given priority.  Demonstration of Naveen, Barshadhan, Ranidhan, Pratikhya, Sahabhagi, RGL 2537, RGL 2538, Geetanjali, Swarna Sub - 1 given importance for demonstration.  Foundation seeds promoted in 25 clusters for seed production programme.  Popularisation of hybrids like Ajaya, Rajalaxmi and KRH - 2 in 20,000 hectare area. 3,000 qtls of seeds procured from GoI undertakings like HIL and SFCI as well as MoU farms of CRRI.

 Application of weedicides – importance for dose and time of application.  Mechanical weeding by using power/ cono/ mandwa weeder.  Line sowing/ Transplanting is mandatory for entire demonstration of 155 clusters covering 1,54,400 hectare.  Sowing of seeds by using drum seeder.  Pest and disease management through procurement of need based pesticides.  E-pest surveillance taken up throughout the State.  Joint supervision and guidance to the farmers by Govt. officials and KVK scientists.

Asset Building Providing life saving irrigation through supply of 43,173 pump sets with 50% subsidy limited to Rs.10,000/-. By now 4,300 pump sets have been supplied.

Site Specific Needs Farm-cum-Fish ponds (1,000 nos) in coastal area where depth of water rises up to 2 ft – unsuitable for crop production. Cost of each unit Rs.70,000/- (Farmers’share 10,000/- and Govt. subsidy Rs.60,000/-) Creation of community irrigation projects – 10 acres of patch –Programme of 684 patches. Cost of each patch is Rs.6,00,000 at 100 % subsidy Check Dam/ Diversion Weirs- Programme for 10 projects with estimated cost of Rs.50 lakh each.

Inter Departmental Policy and Programmatic Convergence

ROLE OF CRRI Director, CRRI is the member of the Central Steering Committee (CSC). The CSC guides the implementation process, making suggestion for improvement basing on the State Level Monitoring Teams (SLMT). CCRI, Cuttack is the nodal institute in the monitoring team and acts as the main bridge between the CSC, SLMT and DLMT.

ROLE OF OUAT Identify the priority area to plan right interventions Close monitoring of implementation – ensure quality technologies and services are extended to farmers. ROLE OF KVK Provide feedback to SLMT on quality implementation of the project. Extend technical support for the demonstrations. Monitor the programme and submit report to CRRI at monthly intervals.

Procurement of paddy is done by different agencies like State Civil Supplies Corporation, PACS, MARKFED in the mandies created within the reach of the farmers. The seeds are procured by OSSC under Seed Production Programme. Marketing and Procurement

Development of suitable rice varieties for saline and deep water eco-systems. Development of farmer friendly low drudgery manual weeding equipment. Specific Areas of Strategic Research

In addition to State level Monitoring Team (SLMT), the DLMT have been formed at the district level for regular monitoring of the Project. Set up of District Level Monitoring Team (DLMT) PD, ATMA Scientists of KVK Consultant, ATMA District level Agril Engineer Representative of District Collector District representative of WR Deptt The Team will meet once every month (3rd week) and review progress of implementation.
