CHAPTER – 6

6.1 Agriculture

Agriculture & allied activities occupy an important place in the economy of

Madhya Pradesh. Over 70% of the population living in villages depends directly or

indirectly upon agriculture for its livelihood. Agriculture & Allied Activities

contribute nearly 30% of the states net domestic product.

Out of the total number of holdings, 65% holdings belong to small and marginal

farmers occupying 26% of cultivable land as per agriculture census 2000-01. The

details of number and area of operational holdings are as under.

2 Small land holdings 19.51 26.51

3 Others 25.71 34.93

Total 73.60 100.00

There is an urgent need to improve the productivity of the holdings of small and

marginal farmers to enhance their incomes and make agriculture an economically

viable activity.

Total Geographical area of the state is 307.55 lakh hect., of which the net cropped

area is about 151 lakh hect. Gross cropped area of the State is 203.06 lakh hect.

The Kharif area is 111.91 and Rabi crop area is 91.15hectare. It is 55%and 45% of

total grass sown area. Irrigated area of the State is only about 35%. Erratic and

uneven distribution of rainfall is the main constraint of achieving targeted level of

production.

The cropping intensity of the State is 135%. The major kharif crops are Paddy,

Jowar, Maize, Bajra, Tur, Urad, Moong, Soyabean, Groundnut, Cotton and Major

Rabi crops are – Wheat, Gram, Peas, Mustard, Linseed. lentil and Sugarcane.

2.0 The approved outlay for the Tenth Plan 2002-07 is Rs. 81,612.00 lakhs. The

During the tenth five year plan 2003-04 was the best year as good rains were

received, resulting in highest production level of 104.89 lakh tones of kharif

production, but during rabi season moisture stress has prevailed in wheat

growing areas such as Mandsaur, Neemuch, Shajapur, Sagar, Indore, and

Dewas districts which has resulted in low coverage under wheat crop and

ultimately over all rabi production has affected.

59

2002-03 was the first year of the Tenth plan in which 33 districts out of 45

were severely affected by drought, which resulted in decline in production in

almost all of the Kharif crops except maize and all the Rabi Crops. However

in food grain75%, in oilseed 60%, in sugarcane 79% of achievement against

the target has been realized. Only cotton had 1% more achievement against

the target.

During 2004-05, the third year of the Tenth Plan, 21 districts out of 48 were

severely affected which resulted in decline in production of almost all of the

Kharif and rabi crops.

During the year 2005-06 monsoon was delayed about 10 days and in the

month of July heavy rains were received in all the divisions except Indore

and Ujjain. Due to heavy and continuous rains, 17 districts had been

affected. Sagar, Jabalpur, and Gwalior divisions have been adversely

affected and about 4 to 5 lakh hectare area remained unsown so that the

production of Kharif crops was adversely affected.

3.0 Eleventh Five Year Plan 2007-12 and Annual Plan 2007-08

• In spite of the low level of irrigation, low fertilizer consumption but due

to better extension service and effective implementation of various

programmes, M.P.State ranks first in the country in production of

pulses, oilseeds, gram, maize, and soybean and ranks second in

production of masoor. The growth rate of production of rice 1.67% and

wheat 10.78% achieved higher growth rate than the national level (rice -

2.75% and wheat –(0.45%). The growth rate of production of total food

grain of the state is 8.30 as compared to 0.14 of national growth rate.

• The State Government Agriculture Department has taken few initiatives

to speed the pace of Agriculture development in the state e.g. action plan

for increasing the productivity levels in eastern M.P. and action plan

encouraging organic farming, (bio villages, Gokulgram besides, two

externally aided projects, viz.a " women in Agriculture " and "watershed

development" is being implemented in the State. Further as per the

guidelines of the Govt. of India, National Water Shed Development

Programme for rainfed Agriculture has been fully revised to incorporate

community participation in decision making for planning and execution.

• Looking to the high variation in fertility status of soils in the State, for

enhancing production and productivity and removing regional

imbalances emphasis will be laid on regional planning.

• There is also a need for generation of improved dry land agriculture

technology, diversification of agriculture, judicious use of ground water

and surface water, strengthening extension and education programmes,

training of Human Resources and enhancing the role of women, Special

emphasis will be laid on water harvesting structure. The possibility of

privatizing Agriculture, Extension service would also be tried.

3.1 Objectives and interventions:

1. To achieve 5% annual growth in agriculture output by increasing

productivity.

2. To enhance the incomes of all those dependent on the agriculture

sector so that they attain reasonably satisfactory standards of living,

including food and nutritional security;

3. To promote sustainable agricultural development through efficient

management of land and water resources, using farming systems and

watershed development approaches;

61

4. To provide farmers with appropriate technology, and necessary inputs,

services and incentives;

5. To strengthen the cooperative infrastructure to provide easier access

to agricultural credit and inputs.

6. To refocus extension activities to emerge as a potent conveyance to

acquaint farmers with National & International market demand and

developments in agricultural practices, and the transfer of appropriate

technology.

7. To ensure the involvement of Panchayat Raj Institutions in the

decision-making process to enhance agriculture production.

8. To promote increase in exports of those agricultural commodities in

which the State has a competitive edge.

6.2 Horticulture

Horticulture crops are important as they generate extensive employment

opportunities and income. Being perennial, these crops also help in checking soil

erosion and provide high density green cover to the soil. Being tough, many of

these crops can successfully be grown on waste land, not suitable for traditional

crop cultivation. It is an important source of income for the small and marginal

farmers as the productivity and production of Horticulture crops are much more

than the Agriculture. Of the 15 Agro-climatic zones, 11 are in Madhya Pradesh

which are very helpful for Horticulture crops.

In the year 2004-05, the horticulture related crops covered an area of 646 thousand

hectare, out of which the fruit varieties were sown in 63.23 thousand hectare,

vegetables covered 246.22 thousand hectare, spices 309.81 thousand hectare,

medicinal plants covered an area of 22.90 thousand hectare and floriculture

covered 3.80 thousand hectare. The total area, thus, covered under horticulture

related crop was 3.25 percent of total cropped area of the state.

2.0 Tenth Plan : The approved outlay for the Tenth Plan was Rs.7,743.80 Lakh.

2.1 The expenditure incurred during the first four years was: Rs. 1,419.85 lakh,

Rs. 1,692.21lakh, Rs. 2,065.94 lakhs, and Rs. 2,018.38 lakh in 2002-03,

2003-04, 2004-05 and 2005-06 respectively.

2.2 The approved outlay for annual plan 2006-07 is Rs. 3,066.65 against which

an expenditure Rs. 3,071.65 lakh is anticipated.

6.3 Animal Husbandry & Dairy Development

Madhya Pradesh accounts for about 14 % of total cattle population and 11.7% of

the total milk production in the country. Livestock sector alone contributes 12.5%

of the overall GSDP at current prices. The agro climatic conditions are conducive

to development of not only dairy and poultry sector but also to development of

sheep, goat and pig rearing. Bullocks of Nimari, Kenkatha and Malvi Breeds of

M.P. are known for their superior draught power. The climate of the state is

conducive to adoptability of cross bred and up-graded bovine and caprine as well

as exotic swines. Breeding policy of the state recommends indigenous milch

breeds like Haryana, Gir, Tharparker, Sahiwal etc to be taken up at large scale,

especially in rural areas along with crosses of Jersey as well as Holistein Friesian

in urban or semi urban areas. Jamnapari and Barberi breeds of caprine and White

York Shire breed of swine have been introduced in different part of the state.

Growth of the livestock has been reflected in the form of livestock production.

Despite 0.8% decline in indigenous cattle population as compared to 16th Animal

Census, there is increase of almost 10-12% in milk production. This growth can be

attributed to significant growth of 70% in cross-bred cattle as well as 13.6% in

buffalo. Per capita availability of the milk in MP is 262 gm/day while that of India

is 247 gm/day.

Similarly, potential for goatery and poultry sector has been found to be emerged on

the basis of 24.5% growth of caprine and 59.7% growth in poultry during the

period of 16th and 17th Animal Census.

2.0 Objectives of the department have been to provide:

• Disease free, low cost and nutritious animal protein for human population

through animal health care and breed improvement.

• Protection to human population from zoonotic diseases through curative

as well as prophylactic measures.

• Employment opportunities to weaker section of the society through

extension services.

69

In order to achieve above goals major components of the department are-

1. Animal Health care

2. Breed Improvement

3. Preservation and development of the superior indigenous germplasm.

4. Employment generation through investment in Animal Husbandry

sector.

2.1 Review of Tenth Five Year Plan

Outlay- Total Tenth Five Year Plan Budget outlay was Rs. 17,715.24 lakhs,

out of which Rs. 3,151.80 lakhs have been earmarked for Tribal Sub Plan,

and Rs. 3,554.91 lakhs for Special Component Plan and Rs. 11,008.53 lakh

for Normal Plan.

The anticipated expenditure during the four years of the tenth plan was

2002-03, 2003-04, 2004-05 and 2005-06 Rs. 2,531.77 lakhs, Rs. 2,355.26

lakhs, Rs. 2,746.06, and Rs. 3,254.01 lakhs respectively.

The outlay for Annual for 2006-07 of Rs. 4,138.12 lakhs will be utilized

fully.

3.0 Strategies for Eleventh Five Year Plan

• To cope up with the growth of 9% visualized during the 11th Five Year

Plan milk production has to be enhanced, so that, per capita availability is

doubled as milk contributes almost 60-65% of the total livestock product

value.

• To build participatory institutions of collective action for small-scale

farmers that allow them to get vertically integrated with livestock

processors and input suppliers.

• To create an environment in which farmers will increase investment in

ways that will improve productivity in the livestock sector

71

• To promote effective regulatory institutions to deal with the threat of

environmental and health crisis stemming from livestock.

6.4 Fisheries

Inland fishery is an integral component of rural development programme in

Madhya Pradesh. It is gaining, increasing importance for its potential for

employment and income generation. It caters primarily to the needs of socio-

economically weaker and backward communities of fishermen, scheduled tribes

and scheduled castes, which constitute the poorest section of the society. The

future development of aquaculture depends on the adoption of new and innovative

production technologies management and utilization of less and utilized water

resources .

Madhya Pradesh possesses 3.23 lakh hectare of water area in the form of large,

medium and small irrigation reservoirs, village Panchayat ponds and private bonds.

Of this, 2.69 lakh ha. water area (99.97%) of the reservoirs and 0.45 lakh ha. water

area (84%) of the village ponds and tanks i.e. a total of 3.14 lakh ha. (97.21%)

water area has been brought under fish culture.

The State’s river systems and their tributaries form a net work of 17,088 kms.

Fishing in rivers is free for self consumption. However, this has resulted in the

decline in the fish production and productivity due to unregulated fishing.

An additional water area of 1.00 lakh ha. will be available in the form of reservoirs

and ponds during 11th Five Year Plan (2007-12). Accordingly, a target of 1.00

lakh ha. of water area has been fixed for bringing it under fish culture.

As per State Policy Management of Water Bodies is as follows:-

In addition to present water area of 3.00 lacs ha., an additional water area of 1.00

ha. will be available during 11th Five Year Plan 2007-12 through reservoirs being

constructed by NVDA and Water Resources Department. Thus there will be 33

percent increase in the water area in the Eleventh Plan.

2.0 Tenth Five Year Plan 2002-07

The approved outlay for tenth plan was Rs. 2,989 lakh . During the first four

years the expenditure incurred are- 2002-03 Rs. 445.32 lakhs, 2003-04 Rs.

433.81 lakhs, 2004-05 Rs. 498.14 lakhs, & 2005-06 Rs. 553.42 lakhs.

The Plan ceiling for annual Plan 2006-07 is Rs. 701.34 against which and

expenditure of Rs. 1,183.35 lakhs is anticipated.

The physical target anticipated to be achieved during the tenth five year plan

– Additional water area of 1.40 lakh ha., Fish seed production of 5,000 lakh,

standard fry, 66,000 ton of fish production through reservoir and river.

3.1 Following objectives are proposed during Eleventh Five Year Plan-

• To increase per ha. fish production through private sector to bring it at

par with national average.

• To develop PAN culture for raising fish finger-lings.

• Renovation of 1,642 seasonal ponds through NREG Programme to make

available approx. 6,000 ha. additional water area.

• Development of fish seed production and infrastructure in vicinity of

NVDA reservoirs.

• Providing employment to fisherman communities by allotting water

bodies on long lease for fish culture.

• To introduce biotechnology in fish seed and fish production.

3.2 The outlay for Eleventh Five Year Plan is Rs. 6,400.00 lakhs and Rs.

800.00 lakhs for Annual Plan 2007-08.

3.3 Fish seed production 6,100 lakh standard fry, Fish production 74,000

tonnes, Assistance to 6,120 fishermen of SC/ST category for encouraging

76

fish production through ponds of Panchayats and Govt. ponds on lease,

Training to 12,600 fishermen. Insurance to 70,000 fishermen and

construction of 425 houses for fishermen are proposed.

3.4 A new Janshree insurance scheme is approved for implementation in the

Eleventh Plan. The Insurance Company with the assistance of the State

government and with the share of fishermen will insure the fisherman.

Under this plan, two school going children of insured fishermen (9 to 12th

class) will be given scholarship of Rs. 100/- per month for four years. The

annual premium of Rs. 200/- will be paid by Insurance Company,

beneficiary and State Government. In case of death of the fisherman

nominee will get Rs. 30,000/-, in case of accidental death Rs. 75,000/- and

in case of permanent disability the fisherman will get 75,000/-

77

6.4 Forest

In India, forests play a vital role in the sustenance of about 170 million people and

250 million cattle living around 31 million hectares of forests in 170000 villages.

And there are many million more whose livelihood are directly or indirectly linked

with the forests.

As compared to All India, 31% area of the state is covered by forest. For M.P

forests are one of the most precious natural resources and are vital to the physical

and economic health of the state. They are the source of livelihood for the rural

poor, especially the tribal.

The vision of the department has been expressed in the MP State Forest Policy

2005- Management of forest through a rational, legal and institutional

infrastructure for conservation, development and sustainable use of forest using

ecological, economic, social and technical resources of the state.

The Planning for this purpose is more participative at grass root level. Micro plans

are prepared by individual JFMCs under the broad prescriptions of forest working

plan using PRA techniques.

Further efficient implementation of the working plans, its effective monitoring

through IIFM and SFRI Institutes, technology application and effective planning &

implementation have given good results.


2.1 The original allocation for the forest sector during tenth plan was Rs.

35,275.00 lakh. However the finaly approved total outlay for Tenth Plan

was Rs. 75,661.00 lakh. The expenditure during the various years are 2002-

03 Rs. 9,920.00 lakh, 2003-04 Rs. 11,821.00 lakh 2004-05 Rs. 13,495.00

lakh, 2005-06 Rs. 12,039.21 lakh.

2.2 During the Annual Plan 2006-07 the approved outlay was Rs. 17,209.71 lakh

against which an expenditure of Rs. 17,324.41 lakh is anticipated.

2.3 Efforts were made to reduce the proportion of degraded forests through

various schemes of afforestation. During the Tenth Plan afforestation in

3,97,826 ha. is to be completed as against the target 4,17,000 ha. Similarly

78

through implementation of Forest working plans afforestation under

protection group, regeneration group, and rehabilitation group was taken up.

Under protection group the afforestation in 35,466 ha. was taken up against

the target 46,817 ha. Similarly under regeneration group, afforestation in

2,67,852 ha. was taken up against the target of 3,09,002 ha. Under

rehabilitation group afforestation in 3,78,406 ha. was done against the target

of 4,63,972 ha. Under compensatory afforestation scheme plantation in

87,750 ha. was taken up against the target of 75,000 ha. Similarly

afforestation through forest development cess programme was also taken in

75,926 ha. against the target of 93,750 ha.


• The approach of the MP Forest Department for the 11th Five Year Plan-

envisages conservation as the key factor with enhanced focus on three

areas, viz. people's involvement through effective JFM programme,

multiple livelihood opportunities through forestry sector, and effective

implementation and monitoring of the forestry programmes.

• The thrust areas in the eleventh five year plan include effective

implementation of the working plans aiming at eco-development around

the protected areas, successful re-location and rehabilitation of villages

from PAs., adoption of new technologies and regular capacity building of

all stakeholders specially the village level forest committees.

• The Madhya Pradesh Forestry has certain unique features

• In M.P. efforts have been made to increase the forest cover considerably

in tenth plan and it is proposed to increase the forest cover to 33% by the

end of the Eleventh Plan.

• Within a span of 12 years, the joint forest Management Committees

(JFMCs) in Madhya Pradesh have been established. At present there are

14,173 Joint Forest Management Committees with about 59,000 sq. kms.

of forest area under their charge. With the important decision of the

govt. to share net income from forest with village committees, they are

inclined to take up new roles and responsibilities.

• For the area outside Govt. forests, the department has put a legal

mechanism in the form of Lok Vaniki legislation. It is meant to

encourage forestry on private holdings that are tree clad or can be

brought under tree cover for better economic return to farmers.

79

• Madhya Pradesh is at the forefront of national efforts to conserve India's

rich and varied biodiversity. Its nine national parks and 25 sanctuaries are

spread over an area of 10,863 sq. km., which is more than 11% of the

total forest area of the state. 17 small and large rivers emanate from the

Forests of Madhya Pradesh. These forests also protect catchments of

major rivers of national importance like, the Narmada, the Chambal, the

Betwa, the Sone, etc. The Madhya Pradesh has also the pride in having

19% of India's tigers in the State; therefore a scheme of Eco-development

around protected areas has been revived.

• Madhya Pradesh forestry sector is one of the largest employment

generating sectors, especially in remote and rural areas inhabited by

marginalized communities. Tendu Leaves collection is a major source of

livelihood to rural communities in M.P.

3.1 The outlay proposed for the Eleventh Five Year Plan 2007-12 and for

Annual Plan 2007-08 is as under:

6.6 Food and Civil Supplies

The main function of the Food & Civil Supplies and Consumer Protection

Department are procurement of Food grains at support price and distribution of

Rice, Wheat, Sugar, Kerosene oil at reasonable rates as directed by Government

of India under Public Distribution System. For smooth functioning of the PDS

proper storing facilities in the form of storage tanks of 3,000 to 4,000 liters

capacity and drums are also to be provided to link societies (Fair Price Shop) .


The earlier programme of Targetted Public Distribution System,

construction of Grid Godowns. Construction of Kerosene oil tanks, and

Purchasing of Drum for storage of oil would be continued. Monitoring of

PDS Plan - kerosene round off amounts - would be done. In addition

share capital for constitution of Logistic Corp. - would be given.

An outlay of Rs.3,462 lakh has been approved for tenth five year plan.

During 2002-03 an expenditure of Rs. 897.51 lakh, 2003-04 Rs.118.19

lakh, 2004-05 Rs.145.78 lakh Rs. 325.35 lakh in 2005-06.

2.1 An outlay of Rs.476.97 lakh has been approved for 2006-07 against

which Rs. 976.97 will be utilized.

During tenth plan, aid to cooperative societies was provided for purchase

of 5,859 drums for storage of kerosene, and construction of 1,113 tanks

for storage of kerosene to Cooperative Societies.

Construction of 146 shops cum godowns is expected to be completed by

the end of tenth plan period.


The Scheme of supply of drums and construction of tanks for storage of

kerosene would be implemented in a new form. It has been observed that

40% of the allotted kerosene is diverted to other use and the poor people

of the society are not able to avail the facility of kerosene through PDS.

Hence since 2nd October, 2005. A new scheme- public kerosene scheme

is being implemented in 30 development blocks which has given

82

significant results. This scheme would be implemented in 283

development blocks in 3 stages. In 2007-08 and 2008-09 95 blocks each

year would be covered and during the rest years the scheme would be

extended in 93 blocks.

3.1 The outlay proposed for Eleventh five year plan 2007-12 is Rs. 5,040.00

lakh and that for Annual Plan 2007-08 Rs. 840.00 lakh.

3.2 During the Eleventh Five Year Plan 2007-12 aids shall be provided to Co-

operative Societies for purchase of 4,07,818 Drums and Construction of

Tanks to store kerosene. Annual Plan 2007-08 aids for purchase of 64,750

drums would be given.

83

6.7 Cooperation

Cooperative sector is basically aimed for improving socio-economic status of the

weaker section of the society and in turn arrest the tendency of their exploitation.

Besides. developing their economic well-being, these weaker groups of society get

a sense of confidence and respect in furthering their welfare. In the present

condition the cooperative societies have to face tough competition from private

sector. Therefore for a cooperative it is essential to have a strong share capital base

for achieving maximum borrowing capacity for attaining economic viability and

profitability.

For strengthening cooperative credit structure efforts will be made for expansion

and extension of credit disbursement facilities in the short term and long term

sectors. In addition credit facilities in other sectors like consumers, rural

development, animal husbandry, education, housing and health are proposed to be

provided through rural credit societies.

In the marketing sector it is proposed to provide marketing facilities to their

produce. In the housing sectors apart from providing loan at very low interest rate,

the process of providing housing loans to the members of the cooperative societies

will be simplified. In Consumer Cooperative sectors efforts will be made to

establish self serviced departmental stores through Consumer federation.

For strengthening and extension of sugar cooperatives efforts will be made to

ensure that sick sugar factories in M.P. get benefited through the schemes of

rehabilitation of sugar factories as proposed by Government of India and

NABARD.

Integrated cooperative development projects are being implemented in the state

with financial assistance from NCDC. It is a self-sufficient project for the activities

of additional go-downing capacity, improving agricultural production,

strengthening of public distribution system, increasing irrigation facilities, dairy

development, poultry farming, fisheries development, sericulture development and

all developmental activities relating to Handloom and Industries.

Presently ICDPs are implemented in 10 districts of which 5 projects are already

completed. Now 12 more districts i.e. Sehore, Sagar, Indore, Jhabua, Neemuch

have been identified and ICD Project will be implemented in them also in near

future. Efforts will be directed towards implementing ICDP in all the remaining

districts of the State.

84

Madhya Pradesh has enacted a Parallel Act called Madhya Pradesh Swayatta

Sahkarita Adhiniyam 1999. Cooperatives which have not received any government

assistance in the form of share capital, loan or government guarantee can be

registered in it and a registered cooperative society under the old Act can also be

converted. Based on these criteria. more than 1,000 cooperatives have already been

registered and about 25 converted. the Parallel Act ensures that the cooperatives

registered in it are fully member driven, member controlled, autonomous and

democratic in character while imbibing the cooperative principles incorporated in

the Act.

2.0 The expenditure incurred during 2002-03, 2003-04, 2004-05 was 1,984.47

lakh, 7,368.31 lakh, 3,826.48 lakh respectively. The expenditure during

2005-06 was 5,246 lakh. The approved outlay for the current year 2006-07 is

Rs. 3,237.55 against which an expenditure of Rs. 3,325.42 lakh is

anticipated.
