B-
Strategy adopted by State :-
(a) Rainfed situation Rice :
(i)
Thrust on line sowing with weedicide application instead of
broadcasting.
(ii) Promotion of early / mid duration rice varieties to ensure timely sowing
and area expansion under rabi crops
(b) Irrigated condition :
(i) Emphasis on increase in area under transplantation / SRI
(ii) Thrust on use of chemical fertilizer and micro nutrient based on soil
analysis.
(iii) Distribution of green manuring seed to farmers on subsidized rate.
(iv) Area expansion under hybrid rice.
7
Strategies adopted
Block Demonstration :

Time bound programme for selection of farmers and their training.

Ensured timely input supply.

Regular field visit of nominated scientists and field functionaries for technical
support.
Site specific intervention :

Only 30% of net sown area is irrigated through different sources.

Average annual rainfall of the state is fairly high (1334 mm).

Due to inadequate water harvesting structure major portion of rain water go waste.

For the purpose of conserving rain water and its utilization for irrigation
checkdams / minor irrigation tanks are being constructed under site specific
activities.

Suitable sites are selected with consultation of local farmers / Panchayati Raj
Institutions.

Above structures are constructed on Government land.

Constructed structures are handed over to local Gram Panchayat for utilization
and maintenance.

Total area under rice in the state is 36.70 lakh ha out of which 15.38 lakh ha.
(42%) area falls under BGREI districts and rest 58% under NFSM district.
As only 42% rice area is under BGREI districts. State has proposed lesser
target for Block Demonstration.

Issues for Consideration
Construction of rain water harvesting structure
(Checkdam, MIT) are important site specific activity of the
State and it has significant impact on increasing productivity
and cropping intensity.
These Structures are constructed on Government land
and handed over to Gram Panchayat for utilization &
maintenance.
Since 2010-11, 100% assistance was allowed for this
activity but during 2013-14 GOI suggested only 50%
assistance. Since these structure are being constructed on
Government land and it is community assets hence 100%
assistance may be allowed as earlier years and as per
sanction of SLSC.
