The level of motivation and creation of awareness among farming community by the department officials need to be improved. For control of nematodes in poly house, proper advice needs to be given to farmers for managing the problems. The farmers need to be trained on the grass root level regarding cultural practices like removal of water shoots, training and pruning of the plants and proper insect / pests regulation during the initial growth period. Under cucumber seed production, virus diseases was noticed which may likely to infect seeds if harvested. This may be looked into. Efforts through IPM are needed to control Bacterial Blight Disease & Sun scorching of pomegranate to avoid losses. For cluster plantation of vegetable seedlings, low tunnel targets are to be given in respective of Area Expansion programme, at Dungarpur. Horticulture staff needs to be posted in Dungarpur & Sirohi Districts for effective implementation of MIDH programme. It is suggested to have a detailed pest and disease management programme consulting the experts (Entomologist Pathologist and Nematologist) or a scheduled timetable for various pests and disease management in the field / nursery. State should arrange to upload the monthly NHM physical and financial progress of the district level on the MIDH website on a regular basis. 3 OBSERVATIONS It was highlighted during visit to Maharana Pratap University of Agriculture & Technology that projects relating to INM/IPM need contingency/revolving funds to make them operational and ultimate use. Horticulture staff has not been posted in Dungarpur and Sirohi Districts. In some cases, wheat has been planted as intercrop in mango orchard for which mango basin need widening. In Dungarpur district, no targets of low tunnel have been given to grow vegetable seedlings. In tribal districts, the farmers are resource poor and do not have funds to pool their share to get benefits of MIDH scheme. About 75% farmers are marginal farmers and possess 0.5 to 1 ha. of land. As a result, per unit of operational cost is more which needs more funds. Mildew in Cucumber is serious problem. Good fruiting of Pomegranate at Sirohi district has been observed but there was a Sun Scarch on fruits and bacterial blight on leaves noticed. Tomato crop grown under poly house suffered badly due to nematodes at Nambri under Panchyat, Maharaj Ki Khedi. Now farmers are growing crops in Cocapeat replacing soil to get rid of nematode problems and demanding subsidy for Cocapeat. 4 Report of the Joint Inspection Team on its visit to Rajasthan during 15th to 21st January, 2015 to review the progress under the Mission for Integrated Development of Horticulture The Joint Inspection Team (JIT) comprising Shri Om Prakash, Additional Commissioner, Horticulture, DAC, Dr. Om Prakash, Chief Consultant, Mission for Integrated Development of Horticulture (MIDH) and Shri P.S. Kohli, Senior Resource Person (MIDH), DAC, Govt. of India, New Delhi visited Rajasthan during 15th to 21st January, 2015 to review the progress under MIDH in the State. Shri G.K.

Katara, Deputy Director (Hort.), Dungapur, Sirohi joined the team, coordinated the visit of JIT in Udaipur, Dungarpur and Sirohi districts of Rajasthan. STATE PROFILE OF RAJASTHAN Geography: Rajasthan, situated at the North Western part of India, is the biggest state in the country of India and lies between 23º30´ and 30º 11’ North latitude and 69º 29’ and 78 º 17’ East longitudes. The state shares its north-western and western boundary with the Indo-Pakistan international border that extends about 1,070 km and touches the major districts Barmer, Bikaner, Ganganagar and Jaisalmer. Rajasthan is bordered by Pakistan in the west and northwest, the states of Punjab, Uttar Pradesh and Haryana in the north and northeast. The state of Madhya Pradesh lies in the southeast and Gujarat in the Southwest. The huge portion of the state of Rajasthan is desiccated and houses the biggest Indian desert- the Thar Desert known as the 'Maru-kantar'. The oldest chain of fold mountains- the Aravali Range splits the state into two geographical zonesdesert at one side and forest belt on the other. Only 9.36% of the total geographical region lies under forest vegetation. The Mount Abu is the only hill station of the state and houses the Guru Shikhar Peak that is the highest peak of the Aravali range with an elevation of 1,722 m. The capital city of Rajasthan is Jaipur. Districts: The state has 33 districts classified under 10 agro climatic zones. Out of these 33 districts, the programmes of MIDH are being implemented in 24 districts. The state has 249 Panchayat Samities and 41353 villages. Area: The north-western state of Rajasthan is the largest Indian state with an area of 3, 42,239 sq. km comprising of the 11% of the total geographical area of the country. This state has a type of rhomboid shape and stretches lengthwise 869 km. from west to east and 826 km. from north to south. 5 Topography: Rajasthan has varying topographic features though a major part of the state is dominated by parched and dry region. The extensive topography includes rocky terrain, rolling sand dunes, wetlands, barren tracts or land filled with thorny scrubs, river-drained plains, plateaus, ravines and wooded regions. In a more broad way the topography of Rajasthan can be divided in the following regions- the Aravalli or the Hilly regions, the Thar and the other arid regions, the Plateaus including Vindhaya and the Malwa, the Fertile plains including the Mewar, the Forest Regions and the Water bodies including Rivers and Salt Lakes. Soils: Five distinct specifications of soils viz., Aridiosols, alfisols, entisols, inceptisols and vertisols are found in the state. The aridisols occur largely in arid regions in western Rajasthan. The texture of these soils varies from loamy fine to coarse sands forming dunes in the arid western plain, silty clay loam in irrigated North West plains to sandy loam and clay loam in the transitional plain of inland drainage. These soils are productive under irrigated situations with adequate fertilizers. Alfisols are found in semi arid to sub humid and humid areas. These soils have medium to fully developed profile. Entisols occur many times mixed with aridisols in western parts of the state. These are mineral soils and are highly productive in areas of recent alluvium, but infertile in barren lands. Inceptisols are found at the foothills of the aravalli and other mountain ranges. These are also found in patches in eastern and southeastern plains. Vertisols are characterized by high content of swelling type clays, very high water holding capacity and are too plastic when wet and very hard when dry. These are largely found in southern and southeastern plains, which are sub humid and humid in nature.

However, paucity of water resources is not the only problem. The state faces serious uncertainty in the availability of water and a large part of the state is drought prone. The state has to rely to a large extent on fast depleting ground water resources for drinking water as well as for irrigation. A large proportion of the available water is "imported" from the neighboring states. The other serious problems are deteriorating quality of water, its iniquitous access among regions and sections of population and inefficient use of water in the major water consuming sectors. The source wise irrigated area in the State is as under: Source Canal Tank Tube wells Wells Others No of Tube wells No of wells Unit Lac ha. Lac ha. Lac ha. Lac ha. Lac ha.

The rainfall is highly inadequate (average annual rainfall is 576 mm) and variable both in time (3 out of 5 years are drought year) and quantum (15 cm is to 90 cm) 65% of cultivation is under kharif season and is mostly depend on rainfall which is sporadic and uncertain Limited availability of ground water (country’s 1.7%) and ground water is rapidly going down due to scarcity of rainfall in arid areas Only 33% of average gross cropped area receives irrigation and two third of gross cropped area is mainly rain fed. 70% area irrigated through wells & tube-wells 27% irrigated through canals Soils are sandy having low water holding capacity, high infiltration rate and shallow in depth in some areas Agro climatic Zones: Rajasthan is endowed with diverse soil and weather conditions comprising several typical agro-ecological situations- warm humid in south eastern parts to dry cool in western parts of the state, which in turn permit growing of large numbers of horticultural crops. Production Strength: The climatic condition of Rajasthan favors growing of various horticulture crops and specially the seed spices. State is having prominent position in production of seed spices in the country. State horticulture sector contributes a lot in the national production as mentioned below: 68 % of Country’s Coriander 39% of Country’s Cumin 89 % of its Fenugreek 24 % of its Garlic 7 % of its Fennel Almost all its Psyllium husk (Isabgol) Almost all its Myrtle (Henna) Almost all its Ajowain 7 % of its Mandarian Producing export quality Kinnow & Aonla 8 Potential Pockets: Horticulture is a potential sector which can face the challenges and provides better returns per unit area and sustainability in production through crop diversification. Rajasthan offers excellent horticulture development potential inspite of several biophysical as well as development constraints. The State has diverse climatic conditions with three major canal irrigation projects- IGNP, Chambal command & Narmada canal area creating resource for the production of variety of crops. This diversity in climatic conditions creates scope to grow number of horticulture crops in different parts of the State. The major potential areas of horticulture crops are as under: Mandarin- Warm humid areas of Jhalawar Kinnow- Dry and cool climate of Ganganagar and Hanumangarh Pomegranate- arid and semi irrigated parts Ber- Western arid districts Aonla - Central semi arid parts Papaya- Central parts of the state Mango- Southern humid parts Cumin- Barmer, Jalor, Pali, Jodhpur, Nagaur, Coriander - Kota, Baran, Jhalawar, Bundi, Chittorgarh Fennel- Sirohi, Tonk Garlic- Jodhpur, Chittorgarh, Baran, Jhalawar, Kota Isabgol- Barmer, Jalor Mehandi- Pali Major production areas of horticulture crops: No Cluster . 1 Fruits Crops Mandarin Kinnow Aonla Ber Pomegranate Bael Mango Guava Papaya Lime/ citrus Main production areas Jhalawar, Kota, Baran, chittorgarh, Bhilwara Sri Ganganagar, Hanumangarh Ajmer, Alwar, Jaipur, Jalor, Nagaur, Karauli, Tonk Jodhpur, Barmer, Ajmer, Alwar, Jalor, Jhunjhunu, Pali, Nagaur, Jaisalmer Ajmer, Bhilwara, Jaipur, Jalor, Jhunjhunu, Jodhpur, S.

The endeavors' over the past decade made for planned and systematic development of horticultural in the state have now been visualizing. The major achievements during the implementation of Mission for Integrated Development of Horticulture in the State are as under: New plantations of Mandarin, Kinnow, Aonla, Lime, Guava, Ber, Mango, Pomegranate, Bael, Sweet orange, Papaya, Jojoba etc. were taken up in 10 identified clusters with well-suited varieties of different fruits and an area of 51427 ha brought under fruits with varieties of high productivity. The additional area of 53117 ha brought under spices crops mainly in coriander, cumin, fenugreek and fennel. To provide different source of income to the small and marginal farmers, 4029 ha area brought under flower crops mainly in desi roses and merigold. To increase the productivity level of fruit crops, 3136 ha old orchards have been rejuvenated. To promote collection of rain water by diverting the flow of runoff from field to the storage structure and then recycle it to use in life saving irrigation to horticultural crops, 1940 water resources created for farmers groups and 426 water resources were created for individuals. To get more returns from per unit area through adoption of high tech technology, 365000 square meter area has been brought under green house cultivation wherein gerbera, carnation and capsicum crops are being cultivated. To promote the organic farming and to avoid hazardous chemicals, 8287 ha. area has been brought under organic farming with construction of 2668 vermi compost units so that essential manure could be available at farm land. To increase the productivity of spices, fruits and vegetables through application of suitable pest control measures, integrated pest management practices have been adopted in 49797 ha area. For technical up gradation of growers on horticulture aspects, 29262 farmers have been trained on different aspects and 15528 farmers have been sent to different parts of country to see and adopt the latest technology of horticulture segment being adopted in other parts of the Country. To create employment generation opportunities for skilled youth, 13 batches of supervisors have been provided the one year training on all aspects of horticulture development. Beside 6 batches of students have been given 6 months of entrepreneurs training and 11batches of students have been provided gardeners training. To provide alternate source of income to the farmers and maximize production 50829 bee boxes and colonies were distributed to the farmers. To create a network of infrastructural facilities for grading, packing, storage and marketing of horticulture produce 16 Cold/MA storage, 53 Pack houses, 8 Ripening chambers and 1764 onion storage have been established in different production clusters of the State. 11 Varieties Introduced: Crop Group Fruits Crop Mandarin Kinnow Sweet orange Mango Aonla Pomegranate Bael Lime Papaya Ber Guava Coriander Cumin Fenugreek Fennel Garlic Desi Rose Spices Flowers Varieties Introduced Nagpur Kinnow Mausambi Dashehri, Langra, Kesar, Amrapali, Mallika NA-7, Chaikaiya, Kanchan, Krishna Bhagwa, Arkta, Mridula Narendra Bael- 5, 7, 9 Eureka Honey dew, Taiwan red lady 786, P. dwarf, Nanha, Pusea delicious, Pusa majesty Umran, Gola, Seb L-49, Allahabad Safeda, lalit, Shweta CS-6, RCR – 435, RCR – 436 RZ-19, RZ-209, GC-1, GC-2, GC-3 RMT-1 RF-125, RF-101 Yamuna Safed Puskari, Ganganagari Fruits Clusters: New Area Covered under Fruits- 51427 ha.
