PATNA: Bihar is working on its Agricultural Road Map since 2008 and embarked on an innovative Approach for agriculture planning and implementation.

Under Agriculture Road Map of 2008 the stress was given to availability of certified seeds for 23 crops.These certified seeds were distributed on a subsidy.The Seed Replacement Ratio (SRR) for some crop was as high as 83 percent in 2011-12.

Stress was also given on bio-farming, farm mechanization and new technique of SRI cultivation.


To give a new impetus to development, an Agricultural Cabinet, headed by Chief Minister was
Constituted. This is first of its kind in India and a land mark initiative.

The Cabinet has constituted an expert committee for preparation of a new road map for 2012-17. The Cabinet then thoroughly discussed the report and farmers’ suggestions were gathered in a Kisan Samagam in February 2012. On October 3, 2012, Hon'ble President of India, Sri Pranab Mukherjee, had launched the second Agricultural Road Map, 2012-17, for Bihar.

The six-point goal of the new Agriculture Road Map is —



Food security


Nutrition security


Increase in the income of farmers


Employment generation and control on migration of workers


Inclusive human base of agricultural development and extensive participation of women


Conservation of natural resources and their sustainable use.



The main strategy of this Road Map include:

  • To ensure the availability of high quality agricultural input materials at farmers’ end in proper time and at a low cost.

 

  • To make the agricultural operation more cost effective and to ensure higher income for farmers with the use of modern farm equipments and agricultural management technique.
  • To ensure a sustainable agriculture through the use of optimum mix of soil, water, crop and other agricultural components, even in the face of climate change.
  • To develop both on-farm and off-farm agriculture based enterprises by transforming the agricultural knowledge into skill.
  • To promote special programmes for Tal, Diara and other areas with specific geographical conditions.
  • To establish agriculture as a prestigious occupation, to attract the educated youth towards the sector and to reward them for their contribution.
