A note from the TSI

Preparation of the Comprehensive District Agriculture Plan(C-DAP) has been a core part of the decentralized planning process, particularly because of the key role of agriculture and allied sectors in the rural livelihood as well as in the overall food security of the nation. At the same time it has been a challenge for the TSI to prepare this Plan under several limitations that are more or less in the knowledge of the concerned department(s). Lack of reliable/substantial data has been one of the major factors causing delay in preparation of this Plan, which has been reflected in the annexure part of this report. On the other hand, some of the tables (annexure) that were to be incorporated as per the Planning Commission guidelines have been found either to be irrelevant or not applicable (for instance, table-55 seeks information related to mulberry plantation which is absent in Angul district). Still we have tried to continuously improve and revise this report, and the present one incorporates some of the valuable suggestions of the people’s representatives of the district particularly to address the issue of regional imbalance.

The C-DAP for Angul district, which was first prepared with the 11 th Plan in target, initially projected a budget of Rs. 196.87 crores for the remaining part (2008-09 to 2011-12) of the 11th plan period from which Rs.39.27 crores had been planned for 2008-09 with its RKVY component of Rs.7.46 crores. Animal husbandry and fishery were the sectors with low projection whereas the maximum demand of investment was in the irrigation and soil conservation sector.

However, the District Planning Committee considered the said report on 25th September 2008, and made some suggestions (like, addressing the issue of regional imbalance) to revise the Plan. Further, some errors were identified; and also the Forest Department, the Horticulture Department, and the Irrigation Departments submitted additional budgetary information. The CDAP has accordingly been revised, and the present report projects an outlay of Rs. 1866.557 lakhs(Rs.7424.733 lakhs to include forestry and irrigation) for the period 2008-09 out of which Rs.594.525 has been suggested under RKVY. Total outlay for the period 2008-09 to 2012-13 is Rs.11019.32 lakhs (Rs.39369.34 lakhs to include forestry & irrigation).

Formatting errors in page numbering, and other errors(if any) are regretted. We hope that the District Planning Office would be able to make necessary revisions in the CDAP in the coming years.

We take this opportunity to thank all the concerned departments, as well as the District Planning Committee for their contribution in preparation of this report. We are also very much thankful to Sri Bidyadhar Maharana, agricultural expert and our C-DAP consultant, for his technical contribution in consolidating and standardizing various relevant information in a report form.

Executive SummaryIntroduction

Concerned by the slow growth in the agriculture and allied sectors, the National Development Council (NDC) reaffirmed its commitment to achieve 4 per cent annual growth in the agricultural sector during the 11th plan and passed a resolution to actualize the envisaged growth rate. The Department of Agriculture & Cooperation, Ministry of Agriculture, Government of India in compliance of the said resolution and in consultation with the Planning Commission, has prepared the guidelines for the Rastriya Krishi Vikas Yojana (RKVY). For the planning process of RKVY, each District is required to formulate a Comprehensive District Agriculture Plan (C-DAP) by including the resources from other existing schemes, District, State, or Central schemes such as BRGF, SGSY, NREGS and Bharat Nirman, etc. The District Agriculture Plans would present the financial requirement and the sources of financing the agriculture development plans in a comprehensive way. The C-DAP includes animal husbandry and fishery, minor irrigation projects, rural development works, agricultural marketing schemes and schemes for water harvesting and conservation, etc. keeping in view the natural resources and technological possibilities in each district. The broad objectives of C-DAP are:

a) To prepare a C-DAP through participatory process involving various organisations and stakeholders.

b) To enable optimum utilisation of scarce natural, physical & financial resources. c) To assess and plan for the infrastructure required to support the agriculture

development. d) To establish linkages with the required institutional support services, like credit,

technology transfer, ICT, research etc.e) To evolve an action plan for achieving sustainable agricultural growth with food

security and cropping system that will improve farmers’ income.

Planning process

The District consultation meeting was held on 4th June 2008 at DRDA Conference Hall, Angul. In this meeting, the District Agricultural Planning Unit (DAPU) was formed. A training-cum-Orientation programme was organized with cooperation from the District Planning Office, on the 12th June 2008. The objective of the programme was to provide basic orientation to the line departments on the preparation of sectoral vision for 2020. The first joint meeting of the District Agricultural Planning Unit and District Planning Unit (for non-agricultural sector) were organized on 19th June’08. Block level consultation meeting were organised on the 17th June, 2008. The methodology of C-DAP has focused on understanding the latent potential of the district for development and identifying initiatives required. In order to prepare the plan, attempt has been made to prepare a statistical profile of the district which led to the understanding of the development perspective of the district. Considering these the district vision was developed and the SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats) analysis was carried out. District Agriculture Planning Unit (DAPU) at the district level and Block Agricultural Planning Unit (BAPU) at Block level were constituted as planning units. The Agricultural Technology Management Agency (ATMA) at the district level was involved to support the planning units for the preparation of C-DAP.

District Profile

The district is located between 20° 31’N & 21° 40’N latitude & 84° 15, E & 85° 23’E longitude and situated under the agro-climatic zone of mid central tableland zone of Orissa which is generally flat with undulating hilly areas. The mean annual rainfall in the district is 1401.9 mm (IMD, Pune) against the state average of 1451.2 mm. January is the coldest month with minimum temperature of 140 C and maximum temperature of 290 C. April is the hottest month with maximum temperature of 390C and minimum of 270C.The relative humidity ranges from 47 percent during February to 75 percent during August. The humidity is generally high (82%), especially during the South West monsoon and post monsoon months. The rainfall code of the district is E3D1 (B1A2B1) D1 E3. The monsoon rainfall is usually concentrated between 23rd and 44th meteorological week. The wind velocity ranges from 5-9.5 km/hour and BSH ranges from 4.1 to 9.57 during different months. The climate of the district is slightly dry and hot. The district is having elevation of about 300 m above MSL. The gross cropped area of the district is 3, 37,000 ha with cropping intensity of 175 percent. The topography of the district is both flat and undulating. The important soil groups of the district are alluvial (entisol), black (vertisol), red-laterite (alfisol) and lateritic (oxisol). The soils of Angul are mainly acidic in reaction.The available nitrogen in the soils is low while availability of phosphorus and potassium is in medium range. Out of the total 1,35,468 operational holdings nearly 86 percent belongs to marginal and small farmers while remaining 14 percent belongs to medium and large farmers. On the other hand, marginal and small farmers are in possession of 58 percent land as operational holdings while the medium and large farmers have 42 percent land. Total workforce in the district accounts for 39.79 percent of the total population. Cultivators and agricultural labourers together accounts for 58.34 percent of the total work force in the district.

Agri-vision

Mission

A vibrant, competitive, technology-based, sustainable, stable and equitable agricultural economy at: A growth rate of 4% per annum through higher production, productivity and increased

cropping intensity, Doubling the production and income of farmers and farm labourers in next 10 years, Ensuring household food security, Conservation of natural resources like soil, water, vegetation and bio-diversity for

sustainable agriculture production, Encouragement of value addition and agro-processing Expansion of vegetable and fruit cultivation, and Enhancing fish, meat, egg and milk production to meet the demand of the consumers

in the context of rising income.Vision and Objectives

Agri-vision 2020 of the district envisages improving the quality of life of the rural population, including poor and women, by widening the opportunities and increasing their income through the route of agricultural development. Unlike the past attempts directed to increase food production, which were primarily input driven, the new thrust will be on demand based sustainable agriculture and on value addition through agro-processing and agri-business. Agriculture would continue to be a primary route of employment in rural areas and a

source of livelihoods of rural population as nearly two-thirds of population directly or indirectly depend on agriculture for their livelihoods and sustenance.

The district has about 54% people below poverty line (BPL). Agricultural growth holds the key for reducing poverty in rural and urban areas by enhancing the agricultural production and farm income.

9


The vision seeks a demand driven agriculture and agro-industrial growth in the new globalised agriculture environment

The vision envisages promotion of infrastructure, marketing support and R&D back up as agriculture cannot develop in isolation.

The district agri-vision aims at sustainable agricultural growth, which will be environmentally, technologically and socially adaptable and sustainable. Growth to technological sustainability will require focused agricultural research through RRTTS, Mahisapat/KVK and frontier technologies like biotechnology, information technology and eco-technology including blending of new technologies with traditional indigenous technologies. Growth to environmental sustainability will require conservation of precious natural resources like soil, water, and biodiversity. Growth to economical sustainability would require focusing on crops and varieties that are adaptable to ecological situations and amenable to demand scenario. Growth needs to be coupled with equity and in a manner that enhances entitlement and need of resource poor farmers, women and those belonging to weaker and disadvantaged sections of community/ society.

The vision statement envisages technology transfer to the farmers to meet their information gap to adopt best available technologies to enhance the crop productivity without endangering the natural resource base.

Availability of complete product range of inputs will be made to the farmers, such as HY/Hyb seeds, biofertilisers, biopesticides and other inputs. The community will be educated to a balanced use of biomass, organic and inorganic agro-chemicals through integrated nutrient and pest management programmes, increased SRR, and farm mechanization.

Every possible effort will be made for participatory irrigation management by forming Pani Panchayats in MIPs, Lift Irrigation and Medium irrigation projects for conservation and judicious use of water and increasing the water use efficiency while ensuring equity in distribution.

Considering the limitations of existing agricultural extension, alternative methods like involving NGOs, Krishi Sahayaks and Krushak Sathi will be explored. Contract farming will be encouraged to enhance the market-led extension and assured marketing of agricultural commodities. Private markets will be encouraged as per amended APMC (Amendment) Act 2005. The existing Krushak Bazars and market yards will be made functional and further strengthened. Service delivery system will be further improved by involving private sector in Public -Private Partnership (PPP) mode.

Holistic development of horticulture through NHM, National Horticultural Board and special projects under RKVY will be taken up in potential Panchayats. Special effort will be made on citrus, litchi, mango and banana. Large retail chains will connect the industrial towns and other towns to ensure availability of vegetables, fruits, milk, fish and egg.

Special focus will be given for enhancing production and productivity of groundnut and sesame under ISOPOM and pulses under National Food Security Mission, as these crops are thrust crops of the district.

SWOT Analysis of the district

The SWOT analysis has been made as the central tool for developing the document across different sectors. Strengths have been used as a basis for development while absence of certain strengths has been viewed as weaknesses. The external environment may provide opportunities for growth or present a threat to the development process. For developing the strategies the following SWOT matrix has been used:

The annual credit plan for 2008-09 in agriculture sector has been designed for Rs 184.65 crore

District Plan

A major revival package is essential for the growth and development of the agriculture and allied sectors linked to higher investment and strategies to make agriculture attractive and profitable. Different strategies in combination with technology, credit, marketing, risk management and institutional support would be required to revitalise the agricultural economy of the district. Among the sub-sectors, a major increase has been proposed for crop husbandry, animal husbandry, fisheries and agricultural extension & research. Enhancement of food grain production, supplementary income sources through livestock and fish production have been given thrust in the annual plan 2008-09 based on the broad framework of the Eleventh Five Year Plan. Innovative schemes have been suggested for promotion of organic farming, soil health maintenance, integrated farming system and diversification. The annual plan for 2008-09 has been prepared for Rs. 1866.557 lakhs(Rs.7424.733 lakhs to include forestry and irrigation) for the period 2008-09 out of which Rs.594.525 has been suggested under RKVY. Total outlay for the period 2008-09 to 2012-13 is Rs.11019.32 lakhs (Rs.39369.34 lakhs to include forestry & irrigation).

Introduction

1.1 Background

Concerned by the slow growth in the agriculture and allied sectors, the National Development Council (NDC reaffirmed its commitment to achieve 4 per cent annual growth in the agricultural sector during the 11th plan and passed a resolution to actualize the envisaged growth rate. The Department of Agriculture & Cooperation, Ministry of Agriculture in compliance of the said resolution and in consultation with the Planning Commission, has prepared the guidelines for the Rastriya Krishi Vikas Yojana (RKVY). For the planning process of RKVY, each District is required to formulate a Comprehensive District Agriculture Plan (C-DAP) by including the resources from other existing schemes, District, State, or Central schemes such as BRGF, SGSY, NREGS and Bharat Nirman, etc. The District Agricultural Plans is not the usual aggregation of the existing schemes but aims at moving towards projecting the requirements for development of agriculture and allied sectors of the district. These plans will present the vision for Agriculture and allied sectors within the overall development perspective of the district. The District Agriculture Plans would present the financial requirement and the sources of financing the agriculture development plans in a comprehensive way. Since RKVY is conditional to proper District Planning and Planning Commission has already circulated guidelines for District Planning in line with Constitutional requirements, these requirements are adhered to as far as possible. The C-DAP includes animal husbandry & fishery, minor irrigation projects, rural development works, agricultural marketing schemes and schemes for water harvesting and conservation, etc. keeping in view the natural resources and technological possibilities in each district.

The District plan describes what the district will try to achieve over a medium term of five years and how it intends to achieve it. The Plan contains an analysis of the current situation of the district and particularly its needs and potentials along with statement of objectives and analysis of ongoing as well as new schemes and programmes within the purview of the district. It also contains an action plan along with the financial outlay with a provision of continuous updating.

1.2 Objectives

The objective of district planning is to design an integrated and participatory action plan for the development of local area in general and agriculture and allied sectors in particular. The planning process is initiated at grassroots level for which the base level data from the Panchayats have been collected. The objectives of comprehensive district agricultural plan are:

a) To prepare a C-DAP through participatory process involving various organisations and stakeholders.

b) To enable optimum utilisation of scarce natural, physical & financial resources. c) To assess and plan for the infrastructure required to support the agriculture

development.

15


d) To establish linkages with the required institutional support services, like credit, technology transfer, ICT, research etc.

e) To evolve an action plan for achieving sustainable agricultural growth with food security and cropping system that will improve farmers’ income.

1.3 Methodology

The methodology of C-DAP has focused on understanding the latent potential of the district for development and identifying initiatives required. These potentials are treated as goals to be achieved with the available and additional resources. In order to prepare the plan, attempt has been made to prepare a statistical profile of the district which led to the understanding of the development perspective of the district. Considering these the district vision was developed and the SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats) analysis was carried out. District Agriculture Planning Unit (DAPU) at the district level was constituted with members as recommended by the Planning Commission. The Agricultural Technology Management Agency (ATMA) at the district level was given adequate attention in the process. The Technical Support Institution (TSI) appointed by the State Government provided necessary technical inputs and planning process required for the preparation of C-DAP.

1.4 Planning Process

The District planning process went through the following stages:

The District consultation meeting was held on 4th June 2008 at DRDA Conference Hall, Angul. The meeting was attended by 60 participants including district level senior officers of all the line departments, ZP members, representatives of local MP and MLA, ULBs, civil society organizations (CSOs) and PRIA’s (TSI) representatives. The basic objective of the consultation was to build up a common understanding on the planning process, to have a clear understanding on the roles and responsibilities of various stakeholders and to ensure the process to be participatory. In this meeting, the District Agricultural Planning Unit (DAPU) was formed. Following this, a training-cum-orientation programme was organized with cooperation from the District Planning Office, on the 12 th June 2008. The objective of the programme was to provide basic orientation to the line departments on the preparation of sectoral vision for 2020. The representatives of various line departments, Project Director, DRDA and other officials attended the programme. During the orientation it was made clear that though the guidelines of Planning Commission said that the TSI would only play the role of a facilitator, both the TSI and the Departments had to support each other in ensuring the preparation of the district plan with the TSI’s responsibility of consolidating the sectoral plans. The first joint meeting of the District Agricultural Planning Unit and District Planning Unit (for non-agricultural sector) were organized on 19th June’08. Block level consultation meeting were organised on the 17th June, 2008. Appraisal-cum-consultation on the annual- and perspective plans prepared for the district was done by the TSI in the 2nd joint meeting of DAPU & DPU on 7th November 2008, in the district-level meeting of DPC members on the same day, and in the district-level meeting of sarpanchs, Block-chairpersons, and BDOs on 8th November 2008.

(i) Formulation of Vision Document: In this stage the aspirations and developmental needs of the district were broadly spelt out keeping a specific time frame for achievement. This Vision prepared at the district level in consultation with all stakeholders was taken as a guide in preparation of the plan. The contents of the vision document have been illustrated in the following diagram.

Figure 1: Agri-vision contents

(ii) Information Needs and Analysis: The basic statistics of the district were used to work out the indices which would describe the present status of the district as compared to the state and the country. Based on SWOT analysis, the needs and core sectors were identified to focus on, for further development. The district vision was shared with district stakeholders through a district-level meeting and also through the district website.

(iii) Preparation of Participatory Village/Panchayat Plans: The basic information was collected from all the Gram Panchayats by the survey team so as to assess their need, potential, resource availability and problems. The micro planning exercise was carried out on sample basis in villages/GPs in the Kaniha, Angul, Athmallik, Talcher, and Banarpal blocks, and on that basis the priorities were identified by the study team in consultation with the local representatives and villagers.

(iv) Formulation of a District Plan: Sectoral planning with Block-specific interventions was done by the line departments considering the need, potential, man power, availability of technology & resources and various policies and programmes adopted. The TSI guided this process, provided necessary format as well as inputs, and did the final consolidation and editing work.

(v) Approval by DPC/Zilla Parishad: Most of the members of the DPC are from the Zilla Parishad, and the TSI presented the draft CDAP before them on 25 th September 2008. The inputs and comments received in this meeting were taken care of, particularly to address the issue of regional imbalance through this Plan. Accordingly, the CDAP has been revised(for instance, the storage godown originally planned for Angul town was later on replaced for Pallahada, headquarters of a major tribal Block in the district).

1.4 Structure of C-DAP

The C-DAP spreads over 6 chapters including introduction in Chapter I. Chapter II describes the general profile of the district while Chapter III contains the findings of SWOT analysis. Development of Agriculture sector has been narrated in Chapter IV whereas the Plan for

17


Allied sectors has been given in Chapter V. The District plan along with future targets, issues to be addressed in C-DAP, strategies, integration of resources and PLP of NABARD have been elaborated in Chapter VI.

1.5 Limitations

Due to paucity of time, limitations of resources, delayed submission of GP profiles by BDOs and of GP-level baseline survey reports by the partner NGOs of the TSI; and also due to the coincidence of planning exercise with peak agricultural operations in the district, and the question of feasibility of the demand/requirement reflected in the survey formats received, it was not possible to develop the Gram Panchayat level plans. In fact, the government also recognized, though informally at workshops, these limitations. The problems increased further as some of the basic data required as per C-DAP manual were not available from some of the concerned departments. Almost all the line departments were new to the whole process, and found it difficult to follow the suggestions/requirements of the TSI chiefly because of their stereotyped way of working, lack of resources, and limitations of time. A lot of data was thus collected from primary and secondary sources like Statistical Abstracts, District Statistical Handbook, district website(angul.nic.in), PLP of NABARD, credit plan of LBO, SREP of ATMA, and Orissa Agricultural Statistics, other publications and websites.

Chapter II

General Description of the District

2.1 General description and Maps

Angul district came into existence as a separate district consequent upon reorganization of districts in Orissa on April 1st, 1993. The district is surrounded by Cuttack & Dhenkanal in east, Sambalpur & Deogarh in west, Sundargarh & Keonjhar in north and Phulbani in south. The two major rivers namely, Brahmani and Mahanandi with their tributaries pass through this zone. The total geographical area of the district is 6,37,500 ha (Census India), of which net sown area of 1, 93,000 ha accounts for about 30 percent of the geographical area of the district. The area under forest is 2,72,000 ha and accounts for 43 percent of the total geographical area.

2.2 District at a glance

2.2.1 Demographic profile

Total population of the district is 11, 40,003 (2001 census) with population density of 179 per sq km. Rural population accounts for 86 percent of the total population whereas the urban population is 14 percent. The ST and SC population of the district is 11.67 and 17.20 percent respectively, which is slightly less than the ST population of the state 22.13 percent and more than the SC population of the state 16.53 percent. The low level of literacy in rural areas, particularly in SC and ST categories affects the level of adoption of technologies. There are 8 administrative Blocks in the district which are shown in the map. There are 209 Gram Panchayats and 1705 revenue villages in the district. The Block-wise details of villages and population etc are indicated in Table 1 of Annexure I.

2.2.4 River System

The river Mahanandi marks the southern boundary of this district. River Brahmani enters the district through Rengali reservoir and passes through Talcher sub- division. Both these perennial rivers have innumerable tributaries- large and small. Pallahara & Talcher Sub-Divisions and a major portion of Angul Sub-division form a part of Brahmani basin. The basin of Mahanadi is spread over Athamallik Sub-division & part of Angul Sub-division. A multi purpose dam has been constructed over the Brahmani at Rengali and 250 MW of electricity is generated at Rengali hydropower station. A barrage has been constructed 35 Km down stream at a place called Samal. This irrigation project is poised to irrigate 3, 36,400 ha of land in Angul, Dhenkanal, Cuttack , Jajpur & Keonjhar districts. Other rivers of Angul are mountain streams, which are torrents in the rains and in the summer contain little or no water. Their banks in the most part are high and their beds are rocky. The river network in the district provides scope for irrigation, power generation and fishery.

2.2.5 Irrigation Potential

Irrigation potential has been created to irrigate 49,907 ha of cultivated land which accounts for about 26% of net sown area in the district (Table 2.8). The block-wise potential is presented in Table 2.10.

Rengali multi purpose project has been constructed to provide power generation, flood control and irrigation facilities. The main component of the project is a masonry gravity dam of 1040 m length, with a maximum height of 75 m across river Brahmani near village Rengali in Angul District. In stage-II construction of Rengali multi purpose Project a barrage has been constructed at Samal. The water released from the Rengali power house is picked up in the Barrage at about 35 km down stream of the dam to provide industrial water use and extend irrigation facilities on either bank of the river in an area of 3, 36,400 ha lying in Angul, Dhenkanal, Cuttack, Jajpur & Keonjhar districts.

The Derjang Irrigation Project is a reservoir scheme constructed across river Ningara & Matalia near village Majhika in Angul Block. The catchment area is 399 sq km at reservoir. The main canal is 13.19 km having 33 minors & sub-minors. This project is having C.C.A of 7392 ha in Kharif including recent extension of 8 minors executed under NABARD assistance (RIDF – I). Farmers are being involved in operation and maintenance of the canal system, through Water Users Associations, known as Pani Panchayats. The entire command area has been divided into 17 chakas and one WUA has been formed in each

24


chaka. 13 chakas have been handed over to 13 no. of WUAs (PPs). The remaining area will be handed over to 4 WUAs soon. The WUAs have been federated into an Apex Committee. The Aunli Irrigation Project is a diversion weir scheme constructed across river Aunli near village Kanaloi in Chhendipada Block. The catchment area is 150 sq km at weir site. The major component of this system consists of diversion weir of 56 m length with automatic falling shutters of 0.9 m height. The main canal is 4.656 km having 8 Minors & Sub-Minors. This project is having C.C.A of 1746 ha in Kharif & 300 ha in Rabi.

Manjore Medium Irrigation Project is a reservoir scheme being constructed across river Manjore near village Manarbeda of Athamallick sub-division. The catchment area is 452.00 sq km at reservoir site. It envisages construction of one 2050 m long earth dam with a central spillway of 180 m long and 6 m high dyke near left abutment. There are two head regulators on either side of the river with a network of canal system to provide irrigation facility to 6090 ha during Kharif & 4335 ha during Rabi after its completion.

Minor irrigation Projects

There are 52 completed Minor Irrigation Projects in the district out of which 34 are diversion weirs and 18 are reservoirs. The designed ayacut of the above 52 M.I.Ps is 15602 ha in Kharif & 2838 ha in Rabi. The certified ayacut of the above M.I.Ps is 12770 ha in Kharif. There are 21 partly derelict M.I.Ps in the district, whose designed ayacut is 1912 ha & certified ayacut is 826 ha in Kharif. Besides, there are 95 completely derelict M.I.Ps whose designed ayacut is 7296 ha in Kharif.

Lift irrigation Projects

There are 345 completed Lift Irrigation Projects in the District with irrigation potential created for 6160 ha. Out of 345 projects, 151 are defunct L.I. Projects & 194 are operable projects.

Ground water

The district is endowed with ground water potential which can be harnessed for irrigation, domestic use and industrial purposes. The ground water potential of the district and development (Table 2.9) indicates that 76% of total ground water utilisation goes for irrigation purpose and 17.49% of the potential has been utilised for domestic and industrial use.

The proportion of main workers to the total workers is 39.79 per cent, which is less than the state average of 38.79 per cent. Proportion of cultivators to the total workers is 30.32 per cent and agricultural labourers constitute 28.02 percent of the total workers in the district. The proportion of workers in different occupation in the district (Statistical Abstract of Orissa 2008) is shown in Fig 2.5.The entrepreneurship of the people in agriculture/horticulture, particularly in Blocks like Chhendipada, is remarkable, and the work participation rate is higher than the state average. Mining & industrialization in few parts of the district have significantly influenced the traditional occupation of the local population partly because of direct or indirect employment opportunities in these projects and partly because of the loss of agricultural land through land acquisition by the government.

2.2.7 Crops

14. The gross cropped area in the district is 3, 37,000 ha (2006-07) with cropping intensity of 175% which is better than the state average of 158%. Rice is the main crop of the district during Kharif season which occupies 49% of the cropped area (2006-07). Pulses and oilseeds are the major crops grown during Rabi covering about 70% of the cropped area. Mango, banana, citrus and litchi are important fruit crops of the district. Marigold, rose and gladioli are some of the flowering plants cultivated in the district as commercial floriculture in limited area. The annual food grain production of the district is about 1.99 lakh tonnes (2006-07) and that of oilseeds is 26,170 tonnes. As the district is one important industrial and mining district in the state, the natural resource base like land water, forest etc. are under demographic pressure. Further, the demand for industrial labourers is on the increase which displaces labour force engaged in agriculture. Due to such rapid industrialisation and urbanisation, labour availability in peak agriculture season is reduced as a result of which labourers of other neighbouring districts temporarily migrate into the district. Presence of coal mines, NTPC, aluminium plants etc in the district has not only

26


raised the ambient temperature, but also polluted the environment which ultimately affects the agricultural eco-system of the district and the sustainable agricultural production is threatened. The industrial effluence of Rourkela area in Sundargarh district pollutes the water of river Brahmani as a result of which the irrigation water quality used from the same river in the district is deteriorated to the disadvantage of crops. Rapid industrialisation has also upset the natural eco-balance to some extent. The majority of the agricultural soils being acidic in reaction do not provide scope as such for remunerative cropping. All these factors need consideration for formulating a strategy for sustained agricultural production in the district.

15. The crop production and productivity of crops in the district fluctuates from year to year due to several factors including weather. The crop-wise data presented in Table 2.11 and a comparison of the yield of the district with the state and national average shown in Table 2.11 reveal that there is wide yield gap in many crops in the district.

As per the 2003 livestock census the cattle population of the district is 5, 13,390, out of which 483332 are indigenous and 30058 are crossbred animals. The Buffalo population is 35837. The entire buffalo population is of indigenous type. The sheep, goat, and poultry population are 54139, 226234, 298048 respectively. The sheeps are mostly of local non-descript type. Goats and sheep are reared mostly in hilly areas for mutton purpose. The tribal people of the district mostly rear pigs. Sheep and goat rearing is being encouraged under anti-poverty programmes like SGSY. The improved fowl account for 20% of the total population. Most of the boiler farms are small to medium size (200 to 3000 birds/ units). There are about 475 broiler farmers with an estimated turnover of 47,500 broiler chick per fortnight in the district. The State Poultry Breeding and Research Farm was established in Angul with an aim to maintain quality layer breeds, hatching of layer eggs and production of layer chicks. Presently there is no replacement stock in the poultry farm.

18. Angul district comes in the operation area of Dhenkanal District Co-operative Milk Producers Union Ltd. It started functioning in the year 1981 to provide marketing support to the rural milk producers. The milk union is procuring milk from 4 blocks namely Chhendipada, Kishroenagar, Athamallik and Angul. Angul – Bagedia milk route covers Angul

30


and Chhendipada blocks and Angul- Athamallik milk route covers Angul, Kishroenagar and Athamallik Blocks. There is a milk chilling plant at Angul having capacity of 2000 LPD and one Milk Bulk Cooler at Athamallik of 1200 LPD capacity. 68 Milk Producer Cooperative Societies (MPCS) have been organized with the 4590 members (Male 1505 and female 3085). However, 37 MPCS are now functional. The average procurement of milk is 850 litres per day. Angul has a big market where approximately 6000 litres of milk is marketed everyday. Hence there is tremendous scope for diary development in the district.

19. In the pre independence days, people had their own indigenous bulls in the herds which were genetically very poor. Due to religious stigma and orthodox belief the male calves born with physical deformities were transformed to bulls and the bulls used to propagate genetically inferior progenies with diminishing productivity from generation to generation. Of course the villagers did not mind much for this since cattle were then reared mostly for manure. Utkal Gomangala Samiti came into operation in 1935 and started supplying Haryana and Red Sindhi bulls in different parts of the state to upgrade the local stock. During early plan periods, Artificial Insemination was also introduced with Hariyana and Red Sindhi semen. At the initial stage, there was resentment among farmers to accept these breeds with the apprehension that the progenies of the massive breeds of bulls would be large enough to be born in wombs of the indigenous cows. But gradually some of the affluent and knowledgeable farmers accepted the upgrading programme and got graded progenies which subsequently become good milk cows and draught bullocks. During mid sixties exotic breeds of bulls like Jersey Holstein, Brown Swiss were introduced in the state with an aim to increase milk production by cross breeding and A.I. Lot of cross breed progenies was also produced. A.I. with Frozen Semen Technology started in the year 1978-79. The cross-bred female progenies born out of A.I. developed into cows at a very early age yielding 10 to 20 litres of milk per day with good management practices. Gradually dairy farming with cross-bred cows become popular and a gainful self employment venture and A.I. programme with exotic and C.B semen gained state wise popularity. There are 592 livestock farms in the district as shown in Table 2.16.

2.2.10 Soil Conservation

21. Increased biotic pressure, deforestation, uncontrolled cattle grazing and unscientific land management practices have resulted in erosion of top fertile soil of the district. Watershed development project was initiated during the 8th plan period to improve the productivity of land, water, forest and livestock in rain fed areas. The entire District has been delineated into 11 watershed and 937 micro watersheds. Watershed development was started in this district under NWDPRA during 1990-91. 16 watersheds with 12667 ha have been treated under NWDPRA during 8th, 9th and 10th Plans. Under IWDP 17 watersheds with 13141 ha have been treated in the district. Currently 8 watersheds under NWDPRA and 20 watersheds under IWDP with 4000 ha and 10000 ha, respectively are covered under ongoing schemes. Under NREGS proposal has been submitted for construction of 747 farm ponds and 5 Water Harvesting Structures (WHS).The organisation has taken up plantation of cashew in 919 ha, miscellaneous plantation in 302 ha and mango plantation in 10 ha.

2.3 Development of Agri-Vision and Strategy

2.3.1 Preamble

22. Agriculture is the mainstay of the district’s economy and a way of life of majority of people. Cultivators and agricultural labourers constitute 58.34 per cent of total work force in the district (Statistical Abstract of Orissa 2008) who are directly dependent on agricultural development of the district. Pace of development of this sector generally impacts the pace of development of other sectors. Accelerated agricultural growth of agri-business can create employment in rural areas, secure a food standard of living for the agricultural population and discourage migration to urban areas. The district is also important due to presence of various industries and mines. On one hand it affects agricultural development by diverting agricultural labourers to mining and industry and releasing industrial waste materials to agricultural area, and on the other hand it provides scope for production of high value crops, value addition and agro-processing. The total area of the district is 4.09% of state area and 2.16% of state’s cultivated area. Cropping intensity of the district is 175% against the state’s cropping intensity of 158%.Thus agricultural development holds the key for all-out development of the district. The cultivated area of the district is about 32% of the geographical area. Kharif paddy is cultivated in about 90, 000 ha and remaining 1, 21, 000 ha is covered by non-paddy crops. Erratic rainfall, decreased soil fertility, hilly terrains, uneven and inadequate irrigation development , weather aberrations , poor socio-economic condition of the farmers, and adverse impact of industries and mining on agriculture are some of the factors leading to unsustainable agricultural growth in the district. This has been further accentuated by the problems of animal menace, environmental pollution, transfer of agricultural land for non-agricultural purpose, inadequate market infrastructure, low input use and poor extension and research services in the district with low capital investment in agriculture and allied sector. Due to rapid industrialization and urbanization there is labour shortage in peak agricultural season resulting in forced migration of agricultural labour from neighbouring districts to the district. Unabated soil erosion, contamination of water bodies and cultivated soil due to the impact of industries and mining and climatic change are posing

33


serious threat to sustainable agriculture in the district .There has been wide gap between the achieved productivity and achievable productivity due to reasons like moisture stress at critical stages of crop (s) , soil acidity, iron toxicity, low Seed Replacement Rate (SRR), poor infrastructure, poor post-harvest management and low adoption of both material and crop production technologies.

23. With the projected population of 16 lakh by 2020 the district would require 2.62 lakh tons of food grains, 0.38 lakh tons of oil seeds, 1.97 lakh tons of milk, 0.128 lakh tons of meat and fish, 0.288 lakh tons of sugar and 1.344 lakh tons of fruits and vegetables. Since the current level of production of food grains in the district is 1.99 lakh tons and that of oil seeds is 0.26 lakh tons (Orissa Agriculture Statistics 2006-07), there is a need to enhance the production in such crops by 34% and 46% respectively by the end of 2020. With limited scope for horizontal expansion of cropped area, the enhanced production is likely to come from higher level of crop productivity. Similarly there is a need for substantial increase in production of milk, fish, egg and meat during the period to meet the demand of the growing population. A major revival package is essential for the growth and development of the agricultural sector linked to higher investment and strategies to make the agriculture attractive and profitable. Differential strategies across the gram Panchayats in combination with technology, low cost credit, marketing, infrastructure development, risk management and institutional support would be required to revitalise the agricultural economy of the district

2.3.2 Vision Statement

2.3.2.1 Mission

24. A vibrant, competitive, technology-based, sustainable, stable and equitable agricultural economy at: A growth rate of 4% per annum through higher production, productivity and increased

cropping intensity, Doubling the production and income of farmers and farm labourers in next 10 years, Ensuring household food security, Conservation of natural resources like soil, water, vegetation and bio-diversity for

sustainable agriculture production, Encouragement of value addition and agro-processing Expansion of vegetable and fruit cultivation, and Enhancing fish, meat, egg and milk production to meet the demand of consumers.

2.3.2.2 Vision and Objectives

25. Agri-vision 2020 of the district envisages improving the quality of life of the rural population, including poor and women, by widening the opportunities and increasing their income through the route of agricultural development. Unlike the past attempts directed to increase food production, which were primarily input driven, the new thrust will be on demand based sustainable agriculture and on value addition through agro-processing and agri-business. Agriculture would continue to be a primary route of employment in rural areas and a

source of livelihoods of rural population as nearly two-thirds of population directly or indirectly depend on agriculture for their livelihoods and sustenance.

The district has 54 % of population below poverty line ranging from 24-77% across the blocks (BPL Census 1997). Agricultural growth is essential for reduction of poverty in rural sector which requires priority to growth of agriculture.

The district vision seeks a competitive agriculture for sustainable increase in productivity and higher value addition to agriculture produce. The vision seeks a

34


demand driven agriculture and agro-industrial growth in the new globalised agriculture environment.

The vision envisages promotion of agricultural infrastructure, marketing support and R&D back up as agriculture cannot develop in isolation.

The district agri-vision aims at sustainable agricultural growth, which will be environmentally, technologically and socially sustainable. Growth to technological sustainability will require focused agricultural research through RRTTS, Mahisapat/KVK, Angul and frontier technologies like biotechnology, information technology and eco-technology including blending of new technologies with traditional indigenous technologies. Growth to environmental sustainability will require conservation of precious natural resources like soil, water, and biodiversity. Growth to economical sustainability would require focusing on crops and varieties that are adaptable to ecological situations and amenable to demand scenario. Growth needs to be coupled with equity and in a manner that enhances entitlement and need of resource poor farmers, women and those belonging to weaker and disadvantaged section of the community.

The vision statement envisages technology transfer to the farmers to meet their information gap to adopt best available technologies to enhance the crop productivity without endangering the natural resource base.

Availability of complete product range of inputs will be made to the farmers, such as HY/Hyb seeds, biofertilisers, biopesticides and other inputs. The community will be educated on balanced use of biomass, organic and inorganic agro-chemicals through integrated nutrient and pest management programmes, increased SRR, and farm mechanization.

Every possible effort will be made for participatory irrigation management by forming Pani Panchayts in MIPs, Lift Irrigation and Medium irrigation projects for conservation and judicious use of water and increasing the water use efficiency while ensuring equity in distribution.

Considering the limitations of existing agricultural extension, alternative methods like involving NGOs, Krishi Sahayaks and Krushak Sathi will be explored. Contract farming will be encouraged to enhance the market-led extension and assured marketing of agricultural commodities. Private markets will be encouraged as per amended APMC (Amendment) Act 2005. The existing Krushak Bazars and market yards will be made functional and further strengthened. Service delivery system will be further improved by involving private sector in Public Private Partnership (PPP) mode.

Holistic development of horticulture through NHM, National Horticultural Board and special projects under RKVY will be taken up in potential Panchayats. Special effort will be made on fruit crops like citrus, litchi, mango and banana. Large retail chains will connect the industrial towns and other towns to ensure availability of vegetables, fruits, milk, fish and egg.

Special focus will be given for enhancing production and productivity of ground nut and sesame under ISOPOM and pulses under National Food Security Mission as these crops are thrust crops of the district.

2.3.3 Narrative Portrayal of Vision (i) Yield enhancement of major commodities

26. Yield of major crops and livestock in the district is much lower than that in the State and country. Considering that the expansion of cultivated area is almost closed in the district (due to industrial growth and transformation of agricultural land to non-agricultural purposes), the future increase in food production to meet the continuing high demand must come from increase in yield. There will be concerted drives to strengthen adaptive research and technology assessment, refinement and transfer capabilities of the research workers so that

35


the existing wide technology transfer gaps are bridged. For this, an appropriate network of extension service will be created to stimulate and encourage both top-down and bottom-up flows of information between farmers, extension workers, and research scientists to promote the generation, adoption, and evaluation of location specific farm technologies. Besides maintenance breeding, greater effort will be made towards introducing hybrid varieties as well as varieties suitable for export purposes. Agronomic and soil researches in the district will be intensified to address location specific problems as factor productivity growth is decelerating in major production regimes. Forest cover must be preserved to keep off climatic disturbances and to provide enough of fuel and fodder. Milk, meat and draught capacity of our animals needs to be improved quickly through better management practices. The recommendations of National Policy for farmers 2007 and initiatives of State Agriculture Policy 2008 will be implemented with active participation of various stakeholders.

(ii) Integrated nutrient management

27. Deteriorating soil health is a major constraint limiting productivity in agriculture. Imbalance use of fertilisers with more attention towards high analysis form of nitrogen depletes the soil and micronutrients which reduces soil productivity over time. Most of the farmers do not have information on soil health of their farms and the extent of macro and micronutrient deficiencies, which varies across the district. The district will have to take immediate step to open soil testing laboratory and measures will be necessary for soil testing at Block level as per new Agriculture Policy 2008. Attention will be given to balanced use of nutrients. To improve efficiency of fertilizer use location-specific research on efficient fertilizer practices (such as balanced use of nutrients, correct timing and placement of fertilizers, and, wherever necessary, use of micronutrient and soil amendments), improvement in soil testing services, development of improved fertilizer supply and distribution systems, and development of physical and institutional infrastructure will be prioritised. The Integrated Plant Nutrient System (IPNS) will be demonstrated to the farmers in intensive cropping system for maintenance of soil health and sustainable crop production.

(iii) Integrated pest management

28. Use of bio control agents in controlling crop pests have emerged as an important eco-safe alternative for the management of pests and diseases in agriculture. There is need for the promotion of an eco-friendly approach for pest management encompassing cultural, mechanical, biological and need-based use of chemical pesticides with preference to the use of bio-pesticides, bio-control agents.

(iv) Seed replacement

29. Despite a huge institutional framework for seed production both in the public and private sector, availability of good quality seeds continues to be a problem for the farmers. As a result, they prefer to rely on farm saved seeds. Seed replacement rate in the entire district is much below the recommended level because the certified seeds of choice are not made available to the farmers and also due to the fact that farmers do not trust the quality or truthfulness of quality seeds supplied to them. The major thrust will be given on decentralised seed production through “seed village programme” and streamlining the distribution of certified seeds to the farmers.

(v) Growth of total factor productivity

30. The sharp deceleration in total investment and more so in public sector investment in agriculture is the main cause for the deceleration of total factor productivity (TFP). This has resulted in the slow-down in the growth of irrigated area and a sharp deceleration in the rate

36


of growth of fertiliser consumption. The most serious effect of deceleration in total investment has been on agricultural research and extension. Recognising that there are wide yield gaps and there are already proven paths for increasing productivity, it is very important to maintain a steady growth rate in total factor productivity. As the TFP increases, the cost of production decreases and the prices also decrease and stabilise. As future agriculture will increasingly be science-led and will require modern economic management, high return to investment on education is expected. Generation and effective assessment and diffusion of packages of appropriate technologies involving system and programme based approach, participatory mechanisms, greater congruency between productivity and sustainability through integrated pest management and integrated soil-water-irrigation-nutrient management will be aggressively promoted to bridge the yield gaps in most field crops. Farming system research to develop location specific technologies will accelerate growth in TFP.

(vi) Bridging yield gap

31. The yield gap between the front line demonstration yield and farm yield is widening. The gaps have basically emanated due to ecological distortions, i.e., soil and water, climate, non-availability of key inputs. The efficient crops in the district must be identified by using relative spread and yield index. The crops like maize, cowpea, horse gram, pigeon pea, field pea, ground nut, castor, potato, onion, vegetables, chilli, garlic and coriander are high spread and high yield crops. Summer rice, wheat are low spread and high yield crops where as green gram, black gram, sesame, gram, sun flower and mustard are high spread and low yield crops. Appropriate strategy is needed to improve the spread and yield of important crops. The yield gap of pulse crops and rice needs to be abridged by application of appropriate technology and use of key inputs.

(vii) Water management for sustainable food production

32. Agriculture is the biggest user of water, accounting for about 80 percent of the water withdrawals. There are pressures for diverting water from agriculture to other sectors like industry and urbanisation which cannot be ignored. Recognising the fact that the water use efficiency of most of the projects is not more than 35-40%, participatory irrigation management and scientific on-farm water management to enhance the water use efficiency by another 10% should be ensured, which will indirectly bring another 10% area under irrigation with the existing infrastructure. The state government is committed to supply irrigation to at least 35% of cultivated area in each Block during the 11th plan. The district has two blocks with availability of irrigation for more than 35% of cultivated area (Banrapal, Chendipada) .Blocks like Kanhia, Kishornagar and Athamallick will require first priority in this regard. More effective utilization of existing irrigation potential, expansion of irrigation where it is possible at an economic cost and better water management in rain-fed areas where assured irrigation is not possible will be pursued. Participatory Irrigation Management (PIM) by water user associations would help to maintain field channels, expand irrigated area, distribute water equitably and provide the tail enders their just share of water. The provisions of State water Policy 2007 will provide many solutions for ensuring efficient use of water.

(viii) Focus on rain-fed farming system

33. Resource-poor farmers in the rain fed ecosystems practice less-intensive agriculture, and since their incomes depend on local agriculture, they benefit little from increased food production in irrigated areas. To help them, efforts will be made to disseminate available dry land technologies for enhancing crop production. Watershed development for raising yields of rain-fed crops will be the major plank for development of rain fed areas. Farming system research to develop location specific technologies must be intensified in the rain fed areas.

37


Strategy to make grey areas green will lead to second Green Revolution, which would demand three-pronged strategy - watershed management, hybrid technology and small farm mechanisation. Water is also critical for rain fed land which accounts for more than 70% of cultivable area. Watershed management, rainwater harvesting and ground water recharge can help augment water availability in rain fed areas. Micro-irrigation is also important to improve water use efficiency in areas where water availability is limited.

(ix) Growth of food grain production

34. The National Food Security Mission (NFSM) has been launched in the first year of the Eleventh Plan which aims at increasing the production of rice, wheat and pulses in selected districts of the country. Angul district has been selected as NFSM-Rice district which provides scope for production enhancement of rice. The target has been fixed for increasing rice production to 2.38 lakh tons by 2011-12 from the current production of 1.90 lakh tons. All possible steps will be taken to achieve the targeted production of rice during the Eleventh Plan period.

(x) Diversification of Agriculture

35. Agricultural diversification has to be a major element in the strategy for accelerating agricultural growth .Ideally, there should be a shift of land from cereals to non-cereals (in the process increasing both farm income and employment) combined with an increase in productivity in cereals to ensure that the per capita availability of cereals does not decline. Diversification also means a shift from crop agriculture to animal husbandry/dairy and fisheries. The shift from cereals to horticulture crops requires a supportive policy framework, notably, a much greater focus on marketing arrangements, including encouragement to private sector involvement in marketing, and encouragement of downstream food processing and research linked to market requirements for diversifying into horticulture. Besides developing technologies for promoting intensification, there will be greater attention to the development of technologies that will facilitate agricultural diversification particularly towards intensive production of fruits, vegetables, flowers and other high value crops that are expected to increase income growth and generate effective demand for food. Diversification towards these high value and labour intensive commodities can provide adequate income and employment to the farmers dependent on small size of farms. Agricultural diversification may pose special challenges in marketing because the high-value produce of diversified agriculture is much more perishable than the food grains. With the amendment of APMC Act and legalisation of contract farming in the state diversification will be much easier.

(xi) Post-harvest management, value addition and cost-effectiveness

36. Post-harvest losses generally range from 5 to 10 per cent for non-perishable and about 30 per cent for perishable crops. Emphasis will be given to develop post-harvest handling, agro-processing and value-addition technologies not only to prevent the high losses, but also to improve quality through proper storage, packaging, handling and transport. Cost-effectiveness in production and post-harvest handling through the application of latest technologies will be a necessity. The agro-processing facilities would preferably be located close to the points of production in rural areas, which will greatly promote off-farm employment. Such centres of processing and value addition will encourage production by masses against mass production in factories located in urban areas. Agricultural cooperatives and Gram Panchayats can play a leading role in this effort.

(xii) Increased investment in agriculture and infrastructures

38


37. Considering that more than 80 per cent of population lives in villages, agricultural growth will continue to be the engine of broad-based economic growth and development as well as of natural resource conservation in addition to food security and poverty alleviation. There is need for higher investment in public and private sector for promotion of infrastructures required for agricultural development. The availability of funds under NREGS and other ongoing schemes relating to Bharat Nirman could be utilised for this. In addition to investments in research, infrastructure investments, particularly in irrigation, transport and market infrastructure development are equally important for sustaining the productivity and profitability of food crop production.

(xiii) Empowering the small farmers

38. The off-farm and non-farm employment opportunities can play an important role for empowering small farmers. Greater emphasis needs to be placed on non-farm employment and appropriate budgetary allocations and rural credit through banking systems for promotion of appropriate rural enterprises. Specific human resource and skill development programmes to train them will make them better decision-makers and highly productive. Knowledge and skill development of rural people both in agriculture and non-agriculture sectors is essential for achieving economic and social goals. A careful balance will therefore needed to be maintained between the agricultural and non-agricultural employment and farm and non-farm economy, as the two sectors are closely interrelated. For poor farm-households whose major endowment is its labour force, economic growth with equity will give increased entitlement by offering favourable markets for its products and more employment opportunities.

(xiv) Access to credit and Risk Management

39. Access to financial resources enables the poor to exploit investment opportunities, reduces their vulnerability to shocks and promotes economic growth. But lack of credit at reasonable rates is a persistent problem. The failure of the organised credit system in extending credit has led to excessive dependence on informal sources like rural money lenders usually at exorbitant interest rates. Farmers are protected against risks by appropriate insurance cover. But during a severe drought year like 2002-03 only 76,627 farmers of the district have been benefited by the scheme which came down to only 3514 during 2006-07. Moreover, current crop insurance is only against yield loss and does not cover price risk. The minimum support price for important crops can provide a sort of relief to the farmers. The district administration is required to implement the procurement under MSP to achieve the envisaged objectives.

(xv) Extension Reform

40. One of the key reasons for the breakdown of the extension system is the financial stringency experienced by the states as well as the Centre. As a result, farmers are becoming increasingly dependent on the private sector for extension services. While this can be an effective alternative if private services are supplied efficiently and competitively, in the absence of assured public provision of such services at a certain standard, the resource poor and gullible farmers can become victims of exploitation by unscrupulous traders and money-lenders interested in selling spurious inputs such as seeds, fertilizers and pesticides or simply interested in pushing excessive dependence on inputs, whether spurious or not. To mitigate the current problem, extension reform, participatory extension and alternate methods of extension provide the answer. Under the policy framework of extension reform Angul district has already adopted the ATMA system of agricultural extension during the 11th

Plan and the preparation of SREP is under way.

39


(xvi) Regeneration of green cover

41. The forest area of the district is 1, 29,842 ha which is about 32% of the geographical area. The dense forest cover of the district has been diminished over the years. However, the existing forests are well stocked, diverse, multi-storied and dense. The forests are managed for sustained use providing a range of goods and services to a variety of stakeholders at local and broader levels. Timber and non-timber benefits must be optimised with adequate investment for regeneration. Joint Forest Management (JFM) evolved in 1990s aimed at involving communities in improving degraded forests. Forests are managed under a Joint Forest Management (JFM)), for local use, sale of surplus and commercial use. This was largely based on benefit sharing. For increasing green cover in the district the broad strategies would be:

Improved forest extent and condition Sustainable forest management Non-timber forest products and wood conservation Biodiversity conservation strategy Local governance & participatory forestry

(xvi) Animal husbandry and Fishery

42. The livestock and fisheries sectors together account for about 30% of the value of the output of Agriculture & Allied Sector and provide full time or part time employment to 5.5% of the total working population, the majority of who are women. Yet per capita availability of milk at 82 gm per day in the district is still very low suggesting scope for further expansion. Poultry development in the district has shown better progress over the years, primarily because research and development schemes of the government have been complemented with effective management and marketing by an organised private sector. The broad vision for livestock promotion in the district would be: Breed upgradation through AI and natural crossing through selected breeds Promotion of appropriate crossbreeds while conserving indigenous breeds of

livestock Use of paravets for first aid treatment and AI measures Formation of CIGs for production and marketing of milk, egg and poultry Farming system approach to include livestock as an important component Development of backyard poultry Self employment through livestock promotion under PMRY and Agriculture Policy. Collection of user fees for need based treatment of domestic animals.

(xvii) Fishery

43. Fisheries not only provide an important alternative source of protein rich food, but also contribute to socio-economic development by generating employment as well as stimulating subsidiary industries. Fisheries contribute 1.2 per cent to overall GDP and account for 21 per cent of the total agricultural exports .The fisheries sector has performed well in the district but vast potential that exists in inland fishery have not been harnessed. There are a large number of small water bodies and irrigation tanks in the district which provide scope for inland fishery. The annual production of fish in the district is about 6000 tons which can be doubled. The broad vision for fishery development in the district would be:

To promote sustainable development of inland and culture so as to enhance the contribution of the fisheries sector to food and livelihood security of the people of the district and state.

40


To promote a balanced approach to fisheries management based on sound ecological, economic and precautionary principles to ensure that fish populations remain viable, productive and accessible to future generations.

To promote public - private partnership in developing, managing, conserving and sharing the fishery resources for the benefit of the society.

To create a human resource base for fisheries development and management, research, extension and awareness, through capacity building.

2.3.4 Reasons for backwardness & issues impending growth

44. The agriculture sector recorded satisfactory growth due to improved technology, irrigation, inputs and pricing policies up to 90s after which there was declining growth. Livestock, poultry, fisheries and horticulture are surging ahead in production growth in recent years and will have greater demand in the future. Industrial and service sectors have expanded faster than agriculture sector resulting in declining share of agriculture in national accounts. Despite the structural change, agriculture still remains a key sector, providing both employment and livelihood opportunities to more than 65 percent of the district's population who live in rural areas. The contribution of small farmers to the national and household food security has been steadily increasing. The district has high population pressure on land and other resources to meet its food and development needs. The natural resource base of land, water and bio-diversity is under severe pressure. Food demand challenges ahead are formidable considering the non-availability of favourable factors of past growth, fast declining factor productivity in major cropping systems and rapidly shrinking resource base. Vast uncommon opportunities to harness agricultural potential still remain, which have not been tapped to achieve future targets. There are wide gaps both in yield potential and technology transfer as the average yields of most of the commodities are low in the district. Concentration was on enhanced production of a few commodities like rice during 80s and 90s, which could quickly contribute to increased total food and agricultural production. This resulted in considerable depletion of natural resources and the rain fed dry areas having maximum concentration of resource poor farmers remained ignored, aggravating problems of inequity and regional imbalances. This also led to a high concentration of malnourished people in these rain fed, low productive areas. There has been rapid loss of soil nutrients, agro-biodiversity including indigenous land races and breeds. The major reasons for backwardness of the district are outlined below:

Low crop productivity due low SRR, low fertiliser consumption, gap in technology adoption, moisture stress, handicapped ecology, non-availability of key inputs and failure of extension service to enhance decision making power of the farmers.

Low farm income due to constraints in agricultural marketing, storage, value addition, agro-processing and poor infrastructure development.

Low investment in agriculture and allied sector, both in public and private sector. Slow pace of land reform and inappropriate land tenure. Pollution of environment due to impact of industries and mining. Slow pace of irrigation development and low water use inefficiency. Low level of literacy and poor socio-economic condition of people as reflected in more

number of families below poverty line. Degradation of natural resources like land water, vegetation and bio-diversity affecting

growth of agriculture and allied sectors. Degradation of grazing land and unavailability of green fodder for livestock promotion Indigenous breeds of farm animals with low yielding capacity. Low productivity of fish in water bodies due to unscientific farming, non-availability of

quality fingerlings. And contamination of river water.

2.3.5 Development issues

41


45. In priority setting, the following recurring and emerging issues for sustainable agricultural development and poverty alleviation in the district have been considered:

Population pressure and demographic transition; Resource base degradation and water scarcity; Investment in agriculture, structural adjustment and impact on the poor; Modern science and technology and support to research and technology

development; Rapid urbanization and industrialisation; Input, credit availability and crop insurance; Human resource development; Infrastructure development; Farming system approach and diversification; Agricultural marketing; Public private partnership; and Convergence of ongoing schemes

In addressing the above issues conservation of natural resources and protection of environment, vast untapped potential of our soil and water resources, and farming systems, technology revolution, ecology and management, revolution in informatics and communication system and increasing capital investment in agriculture and allied sectors will be required.

Chapter IV

Development of Agriculture Sector

4.1 Introduction

48. A higher growth in the district’s total economy cannot be achieved or sustained on a long term basis, without good growth in Agriculture nor could any significant reduction take place in poverty and employment without such growth. A higher growth in other sectors, howsoever desirable, can also not be sustained without significant growth in agriculture nor can it change the complexion of the economy, from backwardness to prosperity or compensate for lower growth in agriculture. The district has significant bearing on the Agricultural performance at the state level. It contributes about one fifth of the total food grain production in the state. About 5% each of pulses and oilseeds of total production in the state comes from Angul district. The area under fruit crops in the district is about 5.67% of the state’s coverage which is the third highest in Orissa next to Ganjam and Koraput. Evidently the district’s agriculture has a paramount role to play in the food production and food security of the state. The contribution of Angul district in the total production of the state in respect of major crops is given in Table 4.1.

4.2 Land Use

49. The net sown area of the district is about 30% of the geographical area whereas the area under forest cover is 42.6% which indicates the importance of both agriculture and forestry in the district. Cultivated area of the district is 2, 16,000 ha and highland constitutes nearly 58% of the total cultivated area. Paddy area is limited to 51% of the cultivated area which speaks about the importance of non-paddy crops in the district. The pattern of land use in the district is illustrated in Fig.4.1.

Fig. 4.1 Land utilisation pattern

47


( NS= net sown area)

The Kharif cropped area of the district is 2, 25,960 ha and that of Rabi is 91,510 ha. The gross cropped area during 2006-07 including fruit crops is 3, 36,560 ha.

5.3 Soil Health

50.. While conversion of agricultural to non-agricultural land is unavoidable, we need to ensure that this does not put undue pressure on agriculture or lead to inefficient land-use, e.g., loss of essential water bodies and speculative land purchase that reduces cultivation without any productive use for several years. It has been observed that soil health has deteriorated sharply during the last few years. Indiscriminate and imbalanced use of chemical fertilizers, especially urea along with other harmful chemical pesticides and unavailability of organic manures has led to considerable reduction in soil health. Hence restoring soil health has emerged as a major challenge before the farming community. The State Government is taking steps to check the rapid deterioration in soil health in several areas. Use of chemical fertilizers is very low in the district in comparison to agriculturally advanced neighbouring districts of the state like Sambalpur, Bargarh and Cuttack. The consumption of plant nutrients in the state during 2006-07 is 47 kg/ha whereas it is 22 kg in the district. The consumption of chemical fertilizers in the district as compared to the consumption pattern of the state and neighbouring districts is presented in Table 4.2.

Data from the above table shows that consumption of nitrogen in the district is much more in comparison to use of phosphatic and potassic fertilizers and the imbalance is seriously affecting soil fertility. The recommended fertilizer use in terms of NPK ratio is 4:2:1. The pattern of fertilizer consumption in the district shows that the NPK ratio is gradually changing showing an imbalanced ratio. The ratio was somewhat ideal during 2005-06 which again imbalanced from 2006-07 as shown in Table 4.3

Soil testing is very important for improving soil health. Soil testing also minimizes the cost of cultivation by way of use of balanced fertilizers. Hence strengthening of infrastructure for soil testing is important initiative taken by the state government. The soil samples of the district are being tested in soil testing laboratory at Dhenkanal. There is a proposal to establish one soil testing laboratory at Angul. As per State Agriculture Policy 2008, the soil testing units will be functional at block level.

4.4 Water resource and management

51. The state government has prepared a master plan to provide irrigation to at lest 35% of cultivated area in all Blocks during 11th Five Year Plan. Since only two Blocks, i.e., Banarpal and Chendipada have such potential, necessary steps will be taken to equate the remaining 6 Blocks with these Blocks during the 11 th Plan. Usually the tail-enders are deprived of water because upper end-users appropriate it for highly water intensive crops. Participatory Irrigation Management (PIM) by water user associations would help to maintain field channels, expand irrigated area, distribute water equitably and provide the tail enders their just share of water. Water is also critical for rain-fed and unirrigated land which accounts for more than 65% of cultivable area. Watershed management, rainwater harvesting and ground water recharge can help augment water availability in rain-fed areas. The district has 2, 16,403 hectares of cultivable land. Irrigation potential has been created for 49,907 ha through different sources, as presented in Table 2.8. Participatory irrigation management (PIM) introduced in Aunli and Derjang projects have been successful in the district and have been considered as model projects. Such PIM needs to be replicated in all the LIPs and flow irrigation projects in the district. The facilities to be extended from OIIA&WMP and community tank irrigation project will be availed to reach the goal. Irrigation up to 35% or more of cultivated area has been available in Banrapal and Chendipadaa blocks only. The other blocks having potential less than 35% of cultivated area are Angul ( 31.71%0, Athamallik( 19.34%), Kaniha (25.47%), Kishornagar (21.66%), Pallahara (26.60%), and Talcher (23.61%). Thus priority needs to be given to these blocks for maintenance of regional balance.

4.5 Major crops and varieties in the district

52. Paddy, pulses and oilseeds are the major crops grown in the district. Paddy is grown in 34% of gross cropped area whereas pulses and oilseeds together cover about 48% area. Fruits and vegetables are covered in 14% of gross cropped area (Orissa Agricultural Statistics 2006-07). The major Kharif crops are rice, maize, Ragi, small millets, pigeon pea, black gram, green gram, cowpea, ground nut, sesame, caster, Mesta, cotton, sweet potato, turmeric, ginger and vegetables. Different crops taken during Rabi season are rice, wheat, maize, chick pea, field pea, green gram, black gram, rapeseed-mustard, sunflower, safflower, Niger, potato, onion, garlic, coriander, vegetables, tobacco and sugarcane. The important crop varieties grown in the district are presented in Table 4.5.

Supply of new crop varieties in form of certified seed distribution and minikits are taken up by the department of agriculture to provide options to the farmers for selection of appropriate cultivar for their farms.

4.6 Input ManagementIrrigation, seed, fertilizer, pesticides, farm machinery and credit are important inputs for enhancing productivity.

Seeds

53. Certified seeds are being sold at the 16 sale centres of the agricultural department. The farmers are also being encouraged to grow certified seeds under seed village programme. High yielding varieties are cultivated in 85% of the total cultivated paddy area and in the remaining 15% of the area local paddy is cultivated. Seeds are sold at subsidized rate under schemes like Macro Management of Work Plan, ISOPOM, Mini mission on jute etc. The Agriculture Department grows seeds in two farms namely Gatikrishnapur Seed Farm in Athmallik sub-division and Pallahara Seed Farm at Pallahara. Foundation seed is being supplied to the registered growers to produce certified seeds under direct supervision of state seed certification agency. Remarkable success has been achieved in production of certified groundnut seed in Angul district and 90% of Kharif groundnut seed produced in the district is being sent to coastal districts of Orissa. The supply of certified seeds to the farmers in different years is indicated in Table 4.6.

Table 4.6 Supply of certified seeds to farmers (in quintal)Crop 2004-05 2005-06 2006-07Paddy 2847 3553 3578Pulses 40 52 150Oilseeds 72 337 450Wheat 195 262 116others 9 6 22Total 3163 4210 4316

Thus the seed consumption increased by 36% within last three years in the district. But the SRR remains at low level for all crops except ground nut and pulses. The seed plan of the district is indicated in Table 29 of annexure I.

Credit 54. Lack of credit at reasonable rates is a persistent problem. The failure of the organised credit system in extending credit has led to excessive dependence on informal sources usually at exorbitant interest rates. There is evidence that farm debt is increasing much faster than farm incomes. The Banks especially Angul United Central Cooperative Bank plays a pivotal role in provision of agriculture credit. The Co-operative Bank (AUCCB), Dhenkanal Gramya Bank (DGB) & various commercial banks provide credit to farmers for short term agricultural operation as well as medium term investment. Kishan Credit Cards have been provided to farmers to simplify the procedure of agricultural credit. The cooperative bank has introduced two schemes namely Kalinga Kisan Gold Card and Kalinga Kisan Silver Card schemes to encourage the good farmer borrowers. There has been more investment for agriculture sector during 2005-06 and 2006-07 as indicated in Table 4.7

Fertilizers

55. In addition to use of organic manures the farmers are using fertilizers to meet the nutrient need of crops. Fertilizers are made available to farmers through private agencies, Orissa Agro Industries Corporation and Orissa State Cooperative Marketing Federation. The quality of fertilizer is checked from time to time by the Joint Quality Control Inspector posted at the office of the Deputy Director, Agriculture, Dhenkanal. The consumption of fertilizer during last three years in the district is indicated in Table 4.8.

Table 4.8 Consumption of fertilizer in MTYear N P K Total Kg/ha2004-05 5227 1480 728 7435 23200506 4905 1715 1089 7709 242006-07 4647 1584 754 6985 22

It is apparent from the above table that the fertilizer consumption is not showing any improvement over the years and the consumption per hectare is one-half of the state average. Crop-wise and block-wise consumption of fertilizer in the district has been indicated in Table 30 of Annexure I while fertilizer requirement has been indicated in Table 31.

4.7 Farm Mechanisation

56. Country made age-old agricultural implements like wooden plough, wooden leveller, Bida, Sickle, Phowrah are still used by the farmers. However, after introduction of improved agricultural implements, the farmers are using different popularized implements such as pedal thresher, hand winnower, puddler, Low Lift Hand Pump, Krushak Bandhu Pump, heavy soil plough and groundnut decorticator. The type of implements and farm machinery used in the district and block-wise availability has been indicated in Table 33 and 34 of annexure I.

4.8 Special programmes

57. Various on-going programmes for development in the field of agriculture and allied sector are being implemented in the district. All the programmes are under either central or state sector schemes. It is essential to analyse the existing schemes / programmes being operated by various line departments with a view to reallocating resource from the existing schemes, so that its relevance is further increased and also requirement of additional fund for extension, development and research component may be met out of the existing schemes in order to make the new approach financially sustainable. The ongoing schemes under execution in the district in agriculture sector are indicated in Table 4.10.

4.9 Constraint Analysis

59. The growth in agriculture in the district is comparatively low which is reflected in lower productivity. Productivity of many crops is lower than the state average. An attempt has been made to determine the efficiency of crops by using relative spread index (RSI) and relative yield index (RYI). Basing on the spread and yield rate of three years (2003-04 to 2005-06) the crops have been grouped under four categories as indicated below.

High spread , High yield (HH)Maize (R), horse gram, cow pea, pigeon pea, field pea, groundnut (K), castor, potato, onion, sweet potato, vegetable (K), vegetable (R), mesta, chilli, coriander, garlic

Low spread, High yield (LH)Summer rice, wheat, small millets, niger, turmeric

High spread, Low yield (HL)Green gram (K), black gram(K), gram, sesame (R), sun flower (K), mustard, tobacco

Low spread, Low yield (LL)Winter paddy, maize (K), ragi, green gram (R), black gram (R), ground nut (R), sun hemp, cotton, ginger, sugarcane

The information stated in the above matrix indicates that the crops shown under HH are only efficient crops which are covered in larger area and produce higher yield in comparison to the state average. The crops shown under LH are cultivated in limited area, but produce higher yield whereas the crops shown under HL are covered in larger area but produce lower yield. The crops shown under LL are cultivated in limited area with lower yield. The Block-wise yield gaps of major crops have been indicated in Table 27 of annexure I. various constraints contributing to lower productivity are indicated in Table 4.12

Chapter V

Allied Agricultural Sectors

5.1 Introduction

64. Horticulture, animal husbandry, dairy development, poultry development, fisheries development, sericulture, forestry and agricultural marketing are allied sectors contribute substantially to agricultural growth of the district. The NHM extends beyond fruits and vegetables, to medicinal plants and spices. These are also crops where recent growth has been relatively high and export prospects are good. The livestock and fisheries sectors provide full time or part time employment to 5.5% of the total working population. Poultry development has shown better progress over the years, primarily because research and development schemes of the government have been complemented with effective management and marketing by an organised private sector. The fisheries sector has vast potential in the district for providing employment to the fisher folk in the district. Allied sector development assumes importance in the district as there is rising demand for such products due to rapid industrialisation and urbanisation.

5.2 Horticulture development

65. The ongoing horticultural schemes that are being implemented in the district are indicated in Table 5.1.

The Horticulture Department has not proposed any NREGS plan for 2009-10 to 2012-13.

5.3 Animal Husbandry

67. The annual production of livestock products in the district has been estimated as 35,000 tons of milk, 13 million eggs and 2047 tons of meat (Statistical abstract of Orissa 2008). There are 16 hospitals and dispensaries, 81 LI centres and 99 AI centres in the district. The population of animals for promotion of livestock sector in the district is given in Table 5.4. The Department has spent Rs 15.77 lakh during 2006-07 and Rs 15.52 lakh during 2007-08 against receipt of Rs.15.99 lakhs and Rs.16.52 lakhs respectively; but the expenditure on research and development is either nil or negligible.

5.4 Fisheries Development

68. There are three reservoirs with water spread area of 40,610 ha and culturable tank area of 2496 ha in the district for fishery production, apart from rivers for capture fish production. There are six working Primary Fisherman Co-operative societies, which exploit the big water bodies like Reservoirs, Rivers and Large G.P. Tanks. Fish Farmers Development Agency, Angul plays an important role in the development of inland pisciculture. It also imparts training to fish farmers in modern pisciculture techniques. So far 2238.93 ha have been developed by F.F.D.A., Angul by excavation of new tanks and renovation of old tanks. Subsidy is available for development of water areas as given in Table 5.7.

The subsidy is also available for those cases developed through own source by the fish farmer without the help of Financing Institutions.

69. Various constraints identified in fishery development are: Lack of ownership of community water bodies Derelict water Technological gap in improved cultivation Insufficient availability of improved fry/fingerling Inadequate credit support Limited composite pisciculture Contamination of river water due to effluence of industries Lack of processing and storage Limited hatcheries

The production target of fisheries from different sources is indicated in Table 5.8

6.3 Forestry Development

70. Angul district has rich Sal forests in addition to mixed forests as well as pure bamboo crops. It was from Angul that the scientific management of forests was started formally in Orissa by the British who had established a forest division here. Bio geographically Angul District covers the forests of Athamallik Forest Division, Angul Forest Division, Pallahara sub division which is a part of Deogarh Forest Division, and Satkosia Wild Life Division. Kendu leaf Divisions of Athamallik and Angul specifically focus on kendu leaf. A working plan division has also been set up at Angul engaged in preparing work plan of Territorial Forest Division. The satellite data analysis indicates that the district has 2657 sq. km. of forest of which 1716 sq. km (64.58 percent) is moderately dense. There is no highly dense forest in the district as per this analysis (Forest Survey of India, State of Forest, 2005). Sal seed, kendu leaf, and several other non-timber forest products (NTFP) hold the potential to support the livelihood of the forest dwellers, particularly tribals and other disadvantaged classes. However, ban on NTFP collection from the sanctuary area, insecure markets, weak implementation of MFP policy and destruction of forests area are some of the factors because of which this potential is not utilized properly. The bamboo cutters and kendu leaf collectors of Satkoshia area have been badly affected by the ban on commercial exploitation of bamboo and kendu leaf respectively, whereas poor quality of kendu leaves in the Angul KL Division is a matter of great concern. Government forests have been attempted to be managed under participatory mode through joint forest management committees (JFMC) or Van Samrakshan Samiti (VSS). However, lack of sufficient tenurial rights is a major weak point of this system. There is ample opportunity of ecotourism activities in the district. Tikarpara is a major tourist attraction. Sahargurjang, called second Chilika, is planned to be

2


developed for this purpose. Recognising the potential and importance of forest on the livelihoods of rural people the following broad strategies are suggested for the district for forest development and environmental protection.

Forest development

Increase in the area under community forest management Settlement of tenurial rights of forest dwellers and forest protecting villages Effective implementation of compensatory plantation activities with local participation

and micro-planning Effective implementation of regular forest management/silvicultural activities with

community involvement. Development of the NTFP sector through R&D work Increase in procurement of grower’s kendu leaf Improvement of ecotourism facilities and identification of new sites of tourist

attraction Minimization of diversion of forest land with local support

Suggested interventions development of the forestry sector include plantations and their maintenance, support to community groups involved in forest protection, construction/maintenance/repairing of support structures(building/roads, etc.), Silvicultural operations, strengthening of protection efforts, and wildlife protection & management . Following are the financial targets of the concerned Divisions for this purpose:

6.4 Sericulture

71. Sericulture provides livelihood opportunities for women, disadvantaged and landless people of the district. The progress so far made is in right direction. Currently sericulture has been confined to Pallahara, Athamallik and Kishornagar blocks of the district. There are four TRCS units operating in these blocks with Tassar host plant area of 438 ha. The average Tassar cocoon production per ha in the district is 9845 against the state average of

3


8000.However, there is still scope for further improvement provided the younger generation takes interest for production enhancement in this sector. Various interventions suggested for sericulture development in the district are presented in Table 5.10.

The broad strategies required for sericulture development in the district would be: Increase in the area under sericulture feed plantation Increase in the capacity of seed farms Improvement in credit and market linkages for tassar cooperatives Effective tie up of farmer’s cooperatives with weaver’s cooperatives

6.5 Agricultural Marketing

72. Farmers need assured linkages to efficient markets with transparent pricing and also modern logistics and cold chains to ensure transportation with minimum spoilage. Modern markets, whether established by the private sector or by co-operatives, can improve marketing facilities by offering grading opportunities and cold storage facilities as well as more transparent price discovery through open auction. Contract farming, which has already been introduced in the state, provides a mechanism for improving linkages between farmers and markets through the active involvement of the private sector, which can also serve as a supplier of key inputs and extension advice. There is need for greater predictability in measures designed for price stability. The Minimum Support Price (MSP) policy has not reached most farmers at times when prices were low. Some of the farmers are deprived of the facilities extended by the government for procurement of paddy through multi-channels. The market linkages can be improved by improving rural infrastructure, including especially, rural roads and rural electrification. The Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) has already done commendable work in extending rural connectivity and the programme will continue into the Eleventh Plan. The Rajiv Gandhi Grameen Vidyutikaran Yojana (RGGVY) also has ambitious plans to extend rural electrification to hitherto unserved rural areas.

73. There are 2 Regulated Market Committees working in the district to ensure remunerative price to the farmers for their agricultural produce. The Regulated Market Committee, Angul was established in the year 1959 vide Notification No.4/59-1951 dated 26/27th Mar, 1959 of Government of Orissa as per provision under Sec-5 of Orissa Agricultural Produce Marketing Act 1956. The market area of the Angul Market Committee is confined to 43 Gram Panchayats of Angul sub division and Angul N.A.C. R.M.C., Angul has taken up management of 10(ten) rural markets from G.Ps & established one market yard of its own at Angul for regulation of Agricultural Produce. The R.M.C. Angul is managing 12 weekly markets as noted below:

One Krushak Bazar has been established at NALCO & functioning since 15.08.2000 in order to eliminate the role of middlemen, provides better return to producers and protects the interest of the consumer’s .R.M.C., Angul has already spent a sum of Rs.44, 81,240.00 to wards provision of infrastructure facilities. R.M.C.,Angul has started facilitating purchase of paddy by the miller agents at Bagedia & Kosala market yards since 2002-2003.The RMC, Talcher was established in the year 1993. There are 3 marketing yards & 2 live stock marketing yards under the management of this R.M.C.

Realising the constraints in agricultural marketing sector the following broad strategies have been suggested:

Encouraging private markets as per Amendment of APMC Act 2005 Encouraging contract farming in the district Facilitating SHGs and Pani Panchayats for organised marketing

6.6 Agricultural Credit & Cooperation

74. There are 103 Primary Agricultural Credit Cooperative Societies, 48 Non-Agricultural Credit cooperative Societies and one central cooperative bank in the district. The block-wise credit institutions and total lending during 2007-08 are indicated in Table 5.11.

The Plan & Target given above are subject to the following assumptions/conditions:

a. Govt. & RBI should identify centers in un-banked & inaccessible area and should take appropriate steps (if necessary by policy change) to open branches of Nationalized & Regional Rural Banks to fulfill the objective of bank within 5 km each of all people/villages.

b. Credit Counseling Centers should be opened timely to inform, educate & propagate the policies, guidelines of RBI, Govt. & Banks to rural mass for easy availability of timely credit.

c. Adequate monitoring & review of achievements of banks should be made to maintain / fulfill each RBI parameter bank wise, such as CD ratio 60%, PS lending 40%, Agriculture lending 18%, Advance to weaker section 10% and DRI advance 1% etc. All banks should achieve the annual credit plans year with minor variations.

d. NABARD & Govt. Should develop the infrastructure facilities & required support for Agriculture Industries & Trading : such as roads, irrigation, supply of inputs, marketing, training centers & dept-wise service centers etc.

Strengthening Primary Agricultural Cooperatives:

The PACSs(Primary Agricultural Cooperative Societies;74 in Angul Circle and 29 in Talcher Circle) seem to be doing well more or less within the present limitations though it is a fact that the loan-waiver scheme of the government for the farmers has adversely affected them. The scheme itself is not the culprit, but the unsustainable policy and diverse impacts thereof are very much questionable as it has supported opportunistic mindset in some cases. The government should consider steps so as to counter the adverse impacts of such policy decisions on PACSs.

For the PACSs, there are 72 godowns in the Angul Circle and 22 in the Talcher Circle, their capacity being 5950 MT and 1750 MT respectively. These are in a poor condition, and due to want of funds their repairing and improvement work is pending. Hence, the following investment is proposed for the repairing and renovation of these godowns:

Activity 2008-09 2009-10 2010-11 2011-12 2012-13

Infrastructure development for the Primary Agricultural Cooperative Societies would be one of the steps to strengthen their initiatives which would also help in agricultural marketing, particularly of paddy, through them. Repairing of godowns should be considered in this light.

Chapter VI

District Plan

6.1 Introduction

75. A major revival package is essential for the growth and development of the agriculture and allied sector linked to higher investment and strategies to make agriculture attractive and profitable. Different strategies in combination with technology, credit, marketing, risk management and institutional support would be required to revitalise the agricultural economy of the district. Among the sub-sectors, a major increase has been proposed for crop husbandry, animal husbandry, fisheries and agricultural research. Enhancement of food grain production, supplementary income sources through livestock and fish production have been given thrust in the annual plan 2008-09 based on the broad framework of the Eleventh Five Year Plan. Innovative schemes have been suggested for promotion of organic farming, soil health maintenance, integrated farming system and diversification. The outlay earmarked for agriculture and allied sectors for the Annual Plan 2008-09 is shown below.
