• Optimum utilization of resources• Ensuring timely supply of quality inputs • Soil health Management & Integrated Nutrient Management• Carry out a campaign for seed treatment• Promoting resistant varieties of wheat, gram and other crops• Proper line sowing of crops will be promoted• Diversification from high water requiring wheat crop to

less water requiring crops like pulses and oilseeds• Seed Replacement Rate• Efficient water management• Integrated Pest – Disease management• Intensive Extension (Transfer of Technology)• Targeting resources towards SC/ST/Small/Marginal

Strategyfor Ensuing Summer 2013

• Green fodder is also sown in summer in some pockets of irrigated area

• Availability of certified /quality seed would be ensured through RSSC and

other seed agencies

•Seed production programme of moong would be organized by RSSC

• Other inputs availability would also ensured as per requirement

3. Convergence of diggies programme with MNREGA

4. Additional assistance for new electric connection seekers up to 20 percent for MI sets to divert them for pressurized irrigation.

5. Pressurized irrigation made mandatory for whole Narmada Command area. The same policy is also trying to extend in lift canals of IGNP.

6. Solar pump project compulsorily linked with drip irrigation technique.

7. Fertigation project has been initiated in the state to get the synergetic benefit of drip irrigation system.

• Positioning of urea for Rabi 2012-13 as per month wise requirement.• Release of balance fund under RKVY where in UC have been sent• Ensuring the availability of certified seed of gram through NSC, SFCI• Relaxation of age limit to beyond 10 years for distribution of certified / TL seed under

MMA and RKVY with differential subsidy as provided under NFSM • Automation and fertigation should be the integral part of NMMI (subsidy on liquid

fertilizers).• Ceiling of area (5 ha) may also be exempted under NMMI.• New crops like strawberry should be included for assistance under NHM• A technical support unit may be establish in MOA to design crop product for weather

based crop insurance• A post of Acturial may be created in MOA to examine and determine the premium,

claim and crop product offered by insurance company• All the automated weather station should be under national umbrella of IMD
