Introduction :
Agriculture occupies a very important place
in the economy of Mizoram. In the Economical
classification of workers as per 2001 census,
majority of the population ie. 61.37 % are
cultivators who are engaged in Agricultural
activities mostly by practicing ‘jhum’ cultivation.
 As per the Agriculture census (2001) there were 65,920 operational
holdings with a total operated area of 85,000 hectares.
 Out of the total number of holdings 42.04% is marginal, 39.00% small,
17.83% semi medium, 1.11% medium and 0.01% large holdings.
 Paddy continues to remain the principal food crop and the stable food
of the Mizo. The per annum rice requirement of the state is 1,85,950 MT
(@ 450 gm per capita consumption per day for the projected population of
11,48,000).
 During 2009-2010, the area under paddy cultivation was 47,714
hectares of which 36,841 hectares are under jhum and 10,363 hectares
are under WRC with a total rice production of 46,290 MT
 In spite rice being the most important crop occupying the largest
share in area and production. Mizoram is still not self sufficient in
rice production.
 The total rice production in 2009-2010 could meet only 25% of the
total consumption requirement of rice in the state.
The following strategies are initiated to strengthen the food grain production
in order to attain the food security -
1. Expansion of Cultivation are through On-Farm Development works.
The total WRC Potential Area (WRC PA) is 74,644 hectares
which account for 3.54% of the total geographical area.
The area under crop production is only 10,363 hectares and the
remaining areas of 64,281 hectares need further development.
2. Enhancement of Productivity and increased area coverage :
The average productivity of Kharif rice is about 1.5 MT/ha. and
summer rice is 1.70 MT/ha. The yield levels is low compared to national
productivity and production.
Attempts is being made to increase the productivity from present
position to 4.00 MT/Ha.
3. Adoption of improved package of practices
4.
Increase in area under early maturing high yielding varieties
and rice hybrids.
5.
Promotion of new/improved resources conservation technologies such
System of Rice Intensification (SRI).
6.
Mechanized rice cultivation to reduce the cost of cultivation and make
rice cultivation more profitable.
7.
8.
Popularization of INM and IPM.
Increase the area under Rabi/Summer rice
9.
Conversion of jhum land area into permanent cultivated tracts particularly
for oil palm cultivation with a target of 61,000 ha.
10. Making available more number of farm machineries to the farmers at
subsidized rate ( like Tractor, Power Tiller etc including water pump and
Micro irrigation needs).
11. Development of Rain water harvesting structure for domestic use and life saving
Irrigation, bio-filtration and water recycling
12. Judicious use of fertilizers, bio-fertilizers and organic manure for enhancing per
capita consumption of 66.90 kg/ha to 120kg/ha.
3.Practices :3.1 Oil Palm Cultivation:
Oil Palm Development Programme under the Integrated Scheme
of Oilseeds, Pulses, Oil Palm and Maize (ISOPOM) CSS was taken up
(75:25 basis) in Mizoram since 2004-2005.
Major thrust is given on the oil palm cultivation in order to decrease
area under jhum cultivation where the net revenue returns per hactare tend to
be higher.
The area covered under Oil Palm since inception of the scheme
(2004-2005) and up to 2009-2010 is 6521 ha. spreading in Kolasib, Mamit,
Serchhip and Lunglei Districts
During 2010-2011, it is targeted to cover an expansion area of 2500 ha.
covering the District of Lawngtlai, Lunglei, Serchhip, Mamit and Kolasib District
in 500 ha. each.
3.2 Agril. Machineries & Equipments :
Special Scheme of subsidy as part of NLUP have been introduced
of which the quantum of subsidy have been raised from Rs. 60,000/- to
Rs. 90,000/- for Power Tiller, from Rs. 1.00 lakh to Rs. 2.00 lakh for
Tractors. A Special provision for Mini Power Tiller @ Rs. 60,000/- have
also been made.
Therefore, 413 nos. of Power Tiller ,55 nos. of Tractors
and about 50 nos. of Mini Power Tiller were distributed to the farmers.
About 1000 nos. of Water Pump set, were also distributed to needy
farmers at subsidized rate.
4. STATE POLICY AND INITIATIVES
• New Land Use Policy (NLUP) is an integrated &
comprehensive planning and implementation of
the same to translate into action the vision of
the Government to make “New Mizoram”,

socio-economic transformation development.
• To wean away farmers from Jhuming practices to
adopt sustainable on farm and off farm economic
activities.
• To introduce commercial farming in lieu of
subsistence farming/cultivation
Objectives of NLUP
• To restore ecological balance through
rejuvenation of forest cover, improvement of
surface and water management, introduction of
new forest and land management system.
• To create food security for all
• To improve income level of Urban and Rural poor
through sustainable farming activities, Micro
enterprise & Cottage industries.
Objectives of NLUP
• Security of farmers: Crop/animal/farmers
insurance and introduction of hand-holding
policy between farmers and industries, in lieu of
contract/captive farming.
• Protection of land for the farmers and the
community.
Project Components of NLUP
