e-governance at the disposal of Farmers: 

e-governance at the disposal of Farmers Use of e-governance for farmers is on the way Farmers can get village Records of Rights of land has been computerized at Computer Centre at Taluka level. Agriculture Taluka level planning is displayed on WEBSITE. TALK – BACK" PROGRAMS CONDUCTED ON PACKAGE OF PRACTICES OF VARIOUS CROPS WITH FARMERS Farmers will be able to interact with Scientists from their village under e-gram project

Credit, Insurance and Financial Support to Farmers: 

Credit, Insurance and Financial Support to Farmers 15 lakh Kisan Credit Cards distributed last year 5 lakh Kisan Credit Cards distributed this year (cooperation NABARD) Credit of Rs. 4500 crore is already given by September end. 1,18,000 farmers added in loans sanctioned The Crop Insurance Scheme is implemented in the State. Rs. 700 crores of claims of farmers were paid in last year Another Farmers Income Insurance Scheme has also been implemented in 5 districts. We have initiated the Farmers’ Accident Insurance Scheme. The coverage of accidental death is of Rs. 1 lakh. Rs. 818.15 lakh premium was paid by Government in last three years.

Focus on villages: 

Focus on villages Gram Sabha Direct interaction between Government functionaries and the village people to solve village level problems on the spot. Meets three times in a year Tirthgram – Samras gram- Jyotigram and E-gram To enhance better quality of life in villages.

Communications : 

Communications Roads and the transport services are connecting all villages of the State 98 % of villages are electrified All Talukas are connected with telecommunication network. State has its own GSWAN network which will shortly reach out to villages. Gujarat State Wide Area Network

Biotechnology : 

Biotechnology Top priority in Vision 2010 Action Plan Enhancing genetic yield levels of crops and animals, incorporating resistance to biotic and abiotic stresses Leading to a sustainable, stable and remunerative agriculture

Organic Farming: 

Organic Farming Growing awareness amongst farmers – incresed use of wormi-compost Need to have Testing Laboratory with Agricultural Universities for certification of Organic Product Need for Corporates and NGOs to provide link between growers and traders to tap multi billion global market of organic farm products.

Weather Forecasting: 

Weather Forecasting Country’s crop production and productivity dependent on monsoon Due to erratic rainfall pattern in many years, productivity gets effected Need for developing a sound weather forecasting system Farmers need to be provided information on weather at least 7 days in advance as available in Western countries This will reduce losses on crop and loss of input and sometime entire farming operation.

Wind & Solar Energy: 

Wind & Solar Energy India has a vast resource of solar & wind energy Increasing use for agriculture related items like cheap desalination, operationalisation of pumps by solar energy, solar drier,wind mills needed Technologies available but it has limited extension due to high cost.

Development of Wasteland: 

Development of Wasteland Country has, particularly in States like Gujarat, Rajasthan, Haryana, vast track of waste lands. Technology needed for fodder, salinity resistant crops and trees for these areas. This will enhance area under agriculture and support a strong base of livestock & Provide employment

Market related Research: 

Market related Research It is essential to carry out Market Research on agricultural production and productivity of other countries where our Agriculture commodities are in demand on a continuous basis. A market mechanism needs to be developed for dissemination of information and exports Need to monitor weather condition and crop production of such countries which include Africa, Middle-East, South-East Asia and SAARC countries.

Major concerns : : 

Major concerns : Per capita availability of fresh water is 60% of the national average 78% of drinking water supply dependent on ground water. Quality and/or quantity of ground water – unreliable During last 15 years : Reduction in quantity of ground water by 26% water table going down by almost 3 mts. every year 27% of villages have water quality problems – excess fluoride & nitrate 1600 Km of coastline lead to problem of salinity ingress in 1/6th part of the State Recurrence of drought every three years

Strategy and Approach :: 

Strategy and Approach : To create sustainable and reliable source of drinking water throughout the year on long term basis by shifting to surface water resources. To make water available in adequate quantity in water scarce and quality affected villages on priority basis. Inter basin bulk transfer of water from South and Central Gujarat to drought prone, desert areas and water quality effected villages of Kutch, Saurashtra and North Gujarat areas. 75% of the total villages to be covered by permanent drinking water supply grid with provision for providing filtered water.

Strategy and Approach …: 

Strategy and Approach … 10,000 out of 18,000 villages to be covered under Narmada Dam based Water Supply Scheme. 10 worst drought affected and desert districts to be provided drinking water under Sujalam & Suphalam Yojana which emphasis on in-situ water conservation and restoring ecological water balance. In good rainfall areas of south and central Gujarat, emphasis on rainwater harvesting and development of local water sources based water supply systems, which are easy to manage, operate and maintain by local people at low O & M cost.

Empowerment of Rural Community: 

Empowerment of Rural Community All in-village water supply schemes will be demand based and to be implemented and managed by local community. Formation of Pani Samities to take over the full responsibility of water supply and sanitation in villages. NGOs to play a role as Implementation Support Agencies (ISAs) and 32 NGOs are working at present. In accordance to 73rd Amendment in the Constitution, capacity building and empowerment of Village Panchayats/ Village Water and Sanitation Committees (VWSC)/ Pani Samitis to plan, implement, manage, operate and maintain their in-village water supply systems in long term.

CONCLUSION: 

CONCLUSION State Government takes the full responsibility of drinking water sources - bulk and semi-bulk water supply Village community to manage their in-village systems Development of local and traditional source for conjunctive use. State Government proposes to ensure safe potable drinking water to all villages by December, 2008 on a permanent, long term and sustainable basis.
