Present Scenario …
Salient Features

However, agriculture in the State is primarily rainfed ( 70
Rajasthan has 10.5% area of the country
Supports 5.5% of human population
10% of cattle
Only 1 % water resources of the country
Water share for irrigation : 83%

preferably in identified villages of selected
districts based on agro climatic situations. For
this, five to ten villages in cluster have been
selected in potential district of the State. In these
selected villages, selected horticulture crops
being promoted in such a manner so that the
demonstration effect could be visualized
