Major focus given by the States

• This is the first year (2012-13) of initiating of
  the NFSM programme in the State. Kharif
  programmes could not be managed properly as the
  approval of the programme was received after
  sowing of rice in hilly areas, even this, the
  following steps have been taken to accelerate the
  production programme.
• Training and awareness campaigning from State to
  Nyaya Panchayat level.
• Cluster demonstrations.
• Hybrid rice demo in 82 ha.
• Promotion of use of Laser land levelers
  (distribution of 28 out of 25).
• Soil Health Management with area coverage of 32
  thousand ha under micro nutrients.
• Surveillance of pest and diseases on crops with
  area coverage 21 thousand ha under Plant
  Protection measures.

A3P Programme under NFSM Programme is
not approved for Uttarakhand.
Physical and financial progress under 19

Status of online submission of progress Report
at State/District level Being the first year of
the programme, online reporting is yet to start.
Concurrent Evaluation of NFSM Being the first
year of the programme, concurrent evaluation
work is not yet undertaken.
29
Specific Issues and suggestions

• Savings of NFSM- rice is proposed for NFSM-
  Wheat.
• Sowing of rice in hilly area of Uttarakhand
  starts from Mid March therefore, approval on the
  Work Plan is required in Feb for 2013-14 so that
  programme may be initiated well in time.
• In case of hybrid rice clusters demonstration,
  the norms of the activities are same as for HYVs
  while the hybrid seed is much costlier than HYV
  seed. In this case a major portion of the
  investment will go to cost of seed.
• Cost of Hybrid seed of rice is very high,
  assistance on seed subsidy is proposed _at_ 50 of
  the cost of hybrid seed.
• Under the programme Implementation of Special
  Plan to achieve 19 million tones of pulse
  production during kharif 2012-13 only drip
  irrigation/sprinkler programme is approved for
  the State. Other activities in A3P should be
  considered for 2013-14.

30
Issues

• Uttarakhand is a hilly state and specially in
  hilly districts area under wheat and rice crop is
  less than 15000 ha as norms set under NFSM.
  Relaxation is required in crop coverage area
  norms from 15000 ha to 10000 ha.
• Relaxation is required in basic qualifications
  and experience of technical consultants for
  deployment under the Project Management Team.

31
Brief Overview of NFSM

• SAP has already been prepared on the basis of
  Comprehensive District Agriculture Plan (C-DAP)
• State and District level NFSM executive
  committees are organized for monitoring and
  review of the Scheme.
• NFSM-Rice component Identified district-5
  (Haridwar, Pauri, USNagar, Almora Pithoragarh)
  and the total cost of the NFSM Rice is 1243.63
  Lakhs.
• NFSMWheat Component Identified districts 8
  (Haridwar, Dehradun, Pauri, Tehri, USNagar,
  Almora, Pithoragarh, Nainital) and the total
  cost of the NFSM Wheat is Rs. 948.46 Lakh.
