AGRICULTURE SECTOR



KEY FOCUS AREAS (11TH FIVE YEAR PLAN)

´ Inclusive Regional Growth in Agriculture sector

´ A decentralized decision making approach which pays heed to

local problems

´ Farmers access to technology to improve production

´ Sustainability of natural resources

´ Enhancing quantum and efficiency of public investments in

agriculture

´ Increasing system support and rationalizing subsidies

´ Encouraging diversification towards higher value crops and

livestock

´ Protect the farmer against food security concerns

´ More comprehensive access to credit skills land and scale for

the poor farmers



IMPORTANT CHANGES FROM YESTER-

YEARS

´ There is definite growth recovery after 200405 from an earlier

deceleration irrespective of the series considered.

´ The target of 4 per cent growth has not been achieved except in

the case of purchasing power of agricultural GDP, which factors inan improvement in agricultures terms of trade.



CONTINUED

´ Third, the year-to-year variation in annual growth rates of output

and GDP as measured by their standard deviation over five-year

periods have now dropped to an all-time low although

´ Finally, the figures bring out two points stressed in the MTA of the

Tenth Plan: that growth deceleration was much more for food

grains than for agriculture as a whole; and that farm income

variability rose after agriculture trade was opened under WTO



TECHNOLOGY GENERATION AND DELIVERY

´ Past experience in India, as well as world wide,shows that

technology is one of the prime movers of agricultural productivity

and growth.

´ India currently spends about 0.6 per cent of agri-GDP on agri-

R&D It is widely believed by experts that India needs to raise this

to at least 1 per cent of agri-GDP, which is an average of the

developing countries



CONTINUED

´ Broadly, the issues r elated to technology can be put in

two categor ies

´ One, where productivity levels are high and have moved

closer to economic potential like wheat and paddy in north-

west India and castor and cotton in Gujarat

´ Two, where productivity levels are low and far below the

economic potential of available technology as seen in most

parts of eastern and central India

The former require breakthrough in technology and the

latter require an extension and a favorable policy

environment like remunerative prices, supply of inputs, and

infrastructure back-up.



PATH BREAKING INITIATIVES OF 11TH

FIVE YEAR PLAN

´ Drawing upon the lessons of the last two decades, the

Parthasarathy Committee outlines the key reforms to be carried

out in the watershed programme. These include:

i. Dedicated full-time implementation structure run by professionals,

especially at the district-level and below.

ii. A 3-phase programme, which includes an initial preparatory phaseof two years focused on building local capacities and institutions

that would run the programme in the subsequent years.



CONTINUED

. Building a livelihoods perspective into the programme from day one rather

than as an afterthought at a late stage, with special emphasis on the interests

of asset-less families.

. Enhancing the per ha norm to Rs 12,000 from the prevailing Rs. 6,000.

. Watershed work to be carried out on clusters of micro-watersheds from

4,000 to 10,000 ha rather than the earlier 500 ha micro-watershed.

. Creation of a national authority for rainfed areas, which would be a quasi-independent authority to manage the watershed

RISK MANAGEMENT

´ Appropriate strategies are required for agricultural risk mitigation

and management. The National Agricultural Insurance Scheme

(NAIS) introduced is being implemented in 25 states and 2 UTs at

present. 1,347 lakh farmers have been covered over an area of

about 210.09 million ha insuring a sum amounting to about Rs

1,48,250 crore under the scheme.

´ Two major new schemes, the National Food Security Mission

(NFSM) and the RKVY were introduced during 200708 to providestates with additional resources on a 100 per cent grant basis.



RASHTRIYA KRISHI VIKAS YOJANA

´ The RKVY in particular has been well received, especially for itsflexibility in giving states the power to choose interventions and settargets.

´ The objective of RKVY (that is, to incentivize states into making higherexpenditure on agriculture and allied sectors) seems to have beenachieved to some extent. More specifically, there are states likeManipur (2.5 per cent), West Bengal (3.2 per cent),Punjab (2.8 percent), Rajasthan (3.8 per cent), Jammu and Kashmir (3.4 per cent), andGoa (3.8 per cent)

´ On the other hand there are states like Himachal Pradesh (11.1 percent), Nagaland(9.7 per cent), Uttarakhand (9.8 per cent),Meghalaya(9.7 per cent), Mizoram (8.3 per cent), and Tripura(10.9 percent), which have been undertaking high average expenditure onagriculture and allied sectors in the last three years.



COMPREHENSIVE-DISTRICT AGRICULTURE

PLANS

´ Financial assistance of Rs 10 lakh per district was

provided to the states to facilitate the preparation of C-

DAPs. This effort was further supplemented by organizing

workshops, interactions, meetings, and visits to the

states to guide the preparation of C-DAPs

´ (a) information collection for preparation of C-DAPs

should start from gram sabhas in villages

´ (b) plans for each local body (LB) need to be prepared,discussed, and integrated in the plan of the upper local

body



NATIONAL FOOD SECURITY MISSION

´ The main objectives of NFSM are to increase the production of rice, wheat and

pulses through area expansion and productivity enhancement in a sustainable

manner in certain identified districts of the country.

´ This scheme is being implemented in 312 districts in the 17 states



IMMEDIATE ACTION POINTS TO

STRENGTHEN FOOD GRAIN SECURITY

Significantly higher investments are needed in modern

bulk handling storage of basic food grains, preferably

under the private sector or under the PPP mode

Special focus groups, including reputable agri-business

leaders, on eastern India need to be set to harnessgroundwater to help raise rice, wheat, and maize yields

with a combination of incentives and infrastructure

investments.



12TH FIVE YEAR PLAN INSIGHTS

´ India targets to achieve 9.5 per cent average economic growth in the12th Five Year Plan (2012-17), on back of an estimated agriculturegrowth rate of 4.2 per cent. The growth target for agriculture for the12th Five Year Plan was announced by Abhijit Sen, a member of thePlanning Commission.

´ Production

The Planning Commission maintains a projected demand of 247 MT by2020. According to statistics 34,178,963 tonne rice has been procuredby various Government agencies as on November 4, 2011.

India's sugar production could increase to 25 MT in the 2011-12marketing season.



CONTINUED

´ Favorable weather during the growing season in major potato

producing states during 2010-11 resulted in about 13 per cent

increase in production, from nearly 36 MT in 2009-10 to more

than 40 MT in 2010-11.

´ Rs 30,000 crore (US$ 6.07 billion) outlay has been proposed for

bringing at least 10 per cent of the horticulture crop area in India

under this high tech cultivation practice in the 12th Five Year Plan



EXPORTS

´ India is among the 15 leading exporters of agriculturalproducts in the world. Fruits and vegetables togetherconstitute about 92.3 per cent of the total horticulturalproduction in the country.

´ India has already begun exporting 300,000 tonnes of riceto Bangladesh on government-to-government account atRs 20,000 (US$ 404.85)

´ India's coffee exports rose by 42 per cent to record360,540 tonnes in the 2010-11 coffee year endedSeptember 2011, according to a report by theInternational Coffee Organization (ICO)



INVESTMENTS

´ The agriculture services attracted foreign directinvestment (FDI) worth US$ 1.42 billion between April

2000 to August 2011,

´ The World Bank has approved a US$ 250 million creditand loan to the West Bengal Accelerated Development of

Minor Irrigation Project (ADMIP) for augmenting

agricultural production of small and marginal farmers.

´ Foreign investors' are showing interest in fertiliser

makers such as Chambal Fertilisers, Coromandel

International and Rallis among others, due to decontrol

of phosphatic and complex fertiliser prices



CONTINUED

´ Organic farming has become a promising method of agricultureand is gaining global recognition.

´ Karuturi Global, the city-based publicly-held floriculture major

and one of the worlds largest exporter of roses which isaggressively rolling out an agriculture business venture inEthiopia, is looking at outsourcing 20,000 hectares of farm land inthe African nation to Indian farmers on a revenue-sharing basis

´ Pune is witnessing a new trend where farmers are approachingconsumers directly with their produce. Farmers have adopted adirect-to-home model that will enable people to buy online aswell as from outlets



INDUSTRY



The Eleventh Plans thrust on accelerated and

inclusive growth requires rapid growth in the

manufacturing sector with generation of quality

employment. The Eleventh Plan had envisaged the

manufacturing and general industrial sector growing

at an average rate of 1011 per cent, which was

about 2 per cent more than that achieved in the

Tenth Plan



MAJOR FOCUS AREAS FOR IMPROVING THE

INDUSTRIAL CLIMATE DURING THE ELEVENTH PLAN



Creation of world-class infrastructure and devi-ing regulatorymechanisms to reduce transaction costs

Promotion and facilitation of industrial investments,particularly foreign direct investment (FDI), non-residentinvestment, and foreign technology transfers/collaborations

Improvement in the business regulatory environment of thecentral and state governments

Development of industrial infrastructure through PPPinitiatives

Removal of regional industrial imbalances

Development of industry relevant skills

Addressing environmental issues emerging out of industrialactivities



HIGHLIGHTS

The Eleventh Plan·s focus on inclusive growth

resulted in great attention to micro and smallenterprises. These generate most of the

employment in industry since they are less

capital-intensive, entrepreneurial, and

dispersed.



LIMITATIONS

Crude steel production hasbeen increasing and, with it,domestic production of iron

ore. However, exportrealizations from iron ore

exports have declinedrecently. The value of iron

ore exports declined to US$4.8 billion in 2008²09 as

compared to US$ 5.8 billionin 2007²08

India currently lags behindthe curve on R&D. R&Dspending is only 0.8 per

cent of GDP which is muchlower than developedcountry or even other

rapidly developing economybenchmarks

Production of iron ore andmanganese has increased,

production of otherminerals has not. One

reason may be, as in thecase of chromites, that theimposition of export duty to

discourage export of ascarce mineral to conserveit for value adding domestic

use, can result in lowerproduction of the raw ore.



APPROACH IN 12TH FIVE YEAR PLAN

Policy makers must work closely with industrialmanagers to solve problem in the productionsphere.

India should chose strategic sectors in whichshe believes she could build competitiveadvantage.

The key to broad and deep industrial growth is toinnovate and improve domestic processes forconsultation and consensus building.

´ main vehicle for providing

elementary education to all

children in the 6-14 years age-

group, has made considerableprogress in universalization of

elementary education (UEE).

´ To achieve UEE in a planned and

time bound manner, a much higher

level of funding and also bettertargeting of uncovered and

undercovered population will be

necessary.



MID-DAY MEAL SCHEME (MDMS)

´ covers students at the elementary stage in all government, local

body and aided schools, has made remarkable progress.

´ To expand the coverage of MDMS, fiscal incentives like tax

exemptions may perhaps, be considered to encourage private

participation in the scheme.

´ There should be a system which ensures that poor children are

admitted in neighbourhood private schools against the 25.0 percent earmarked seats under RTE and are not deprived of the

MDMS.



SKILL DEVELOPMENT

´ Improved training and skill development is critical for providing

decent employment opportunities to the growing youth

population

TOWARDS S&T

´ Wide range of areas that require breakthrough

innovations and significant S&T inputs

´ Areas : energy, water management, farm

production, medical research, waste disposal,health care, communications, and so on.

´ Several critical decisions which affect the S&T

system are needed.

´ At present R&D expenditure in the country is only



´ At present, R&D expenditure in the country is onlyabout 0.9 per cent of GDP, of which about three-fourth is in the public sector and only one-fourth is in

the private sector.´ We must take steps to ensure that total expenditure

in R&D increases to 2.0 per cent of GDP by the endof the Twelfth Plan

´ This could consist of about 1.0 per cent in the publicsector and 1.0 per cent in the corporate sector,including PSUs.

´ It is necessary to create a framework that takes intoaccount the entire life cycle of ideas beginning withdiscovery/creation to commercialization, extensionand value addition. It is success in this area alonethat can stimulate appropriate innovation across thewider system.
