Intervention:

Following are the various intervention under Rice, Wheat and pulses of NFSM.

Demonstration:

The objective of the demonstration is to convince the farmers regarding newtechnology and crop production particularly Rice and Wheat.The demonstrations of improvedpackage of practices of Rice and Wheat, System of Rice Intensification (SRI) and Hybrid Rice will be conducted at farmer's field to create the awareness about the new technology.

The area of demonstration is 0.4 ha and for every 100 ha area of Rice and 50 ha area Wheat one demonstration is conducted. The fund to meet the critical inputs and other expenses for Rice demonstration Rs 2500/per demonstration on IPP, Rs 3000/per demonstration on SRI and Hybrid Rice and Rs 2000/ per demonstration for wheat on IPP are provided.

 

Seed Production:

Seed is one of the most critical inputs for enhancing the productivity of crops. The Mission provides financial assistance for production of seed of hybrid Rice and breeder, foundation and certified seed of improved variety of pulses.

  • Hybrid Rice seed production:- Hybrid Rice seed production is complex and the climatic condition in the state is not suitable , hence the hybrid rice seed production programme has not been taken up.
  • The pulses seed production programme has been taken up. The breeder's seed available from ICAR is used to produce foundation seed at State Seed Multiplication Farm. The foundation seed produced is procured and processed by BRBN which is used again to produce the certified seed in the farmer's field. The certified seed produced is procured and processed by BRBN which to be utilized as seed subsidy on pulses. The incentives on seed production are @ Rs 1000.00per quintal of seed produced at any source.Rs. 250.00 is meant for handling and processing of the seed produced.
  • Less than 10 years old verities of foundation and certified seed of various pulses crops will also qualify for production subsidy.
  • Financial assistant amounting to Rs 25 lakh each year has been earmarked for four years to the state seed certificate agencies with a view to strengthen the infrastructural development including minimum man power on contractual basis.

 

Subsidy on Seed:

To enhance the production and productivity of food grain varietal replacement of Rice, pulses and Wheat is an essential component.To bring the SRR up to 33% in identified district by the end of 11th five year plan and to increase in the productivity an assistance of subsidy on purchase of certified seed released during last 10 years is provided on rice and wheat @ 50% of the cost or Rs 700/ per quintal or whichever is less and on pulses @ 50% of the cost or Rs 2000/ per quintal or whichever is less.The assistance will be limited to 5 hectare only to each introducing farmers.

Seed minikit programme of rice and wheat:

Minikit seeds are meant for introduction and popularization of latest released/pre-released variety /hybrid among farmers. The size of the minikit of HYV Rice is of 5 kg and Hybrid Rice is of 6 kg whereas, size of wheat minikit 10 kg each. This is supplied on full subsidy to the farmers.

Nutrient management/soil ameliorates:

  • To promote the application of lime/liming material and micronutrients an incentive up-to @ Rs 500/ Ha and micronutrient @ Rs 500/ Ha whichever is less in rice is given to improve the soil health  .
  • Application of micronutrient and gypsum in wheat a package assistance for micronutrient and gypsum together will be 50% of the cost limited to Rs 1000/ per ha (@ Rs 500/ Ha for gypsum and micronutrient @ Rs 500/ Ha) is given.
  • The assistance of gypsum will be provided to those farmers whose soil is saline and alkaline PH.
  • An assistance for use of micronutrient /lime/gypsum will be provided @ 50% of the cost limited to Rs 1250 /ha to the farmers. The assistance will be limited to Rs 750/ha for lime/gypsum and Rs 500/ha for micronutrients.
  • This assistance will be admissible to farmers for maximum 5 ha only.
