I. INTRODUCTION
Telangana State is the 28thState of India. It borders Maharashtra state
on North West, Karnataka on West and Andhra Pradesh State on East and
South. The region has an area of 276.96 lakh acres and a population of 350.04
lakhs as per 2011 census. The state is 12th largest State in the country in
terms of area and population.
As a result of reorganization of districts, 31 districts have been formed
in the State Namely Adilabad, Jagityal, Jangoan, Jayashankar Bhupalpally,
Jogulamba Gadwal, Kamareddy, Karimnagar, Khammam, Komurambheem
Asifabad, Kothagudem, Mahabubabad, Mahabubnagar, Malkajgiri, Mancherial,
Medak, Nagarkurnool, Nalgonda, Nirmal, Nizamabad, Peddapally, Rajanna
Siricilla, Rangareddy, Sangareddy, Siddipet, Suryapet, Vikarabad,
Wanaparthy, Warangal (R), Warangal (U), Yadadri and Hyderabad. The
important Krishna and Godavari rivers flow through the state from West to
East. During 2019 (2) more districts i.e., Narayanpet and Mulugu have been
newly formed and thus, the total number of districts are 33.
The Map of the State is depicted below
Majority of population in the state is in rural areas and mainly dependent

on Agriculture for livelihood.

1. RAINFALL
Agriculture in Telangana is dependent on rainfall and agricultural
production depends upon the distribution of rainfall. The influence of South-
West monsoon is predominant. South-West Monsoon (79%) is spread over
the period from June to September, North-East Monsoon (14%) from October
to December and the rest of 7% rainfall is received during the winter and
summer months.
Telangana receives a normal rainfall of 905.3 mm in a year. The season

wise breakup is as follows:

4 Hot Weather 50.8
Total 905.3
(Source: Agricultural Statistics at a Glance, Telangana 2015-16, DES.)
2. SOIL TYPE
In the State, there are varieties of soils ranging from fertile alluvial to
very poor sandy soils. Red soils are predominant accounting for 48 percent
of the total area. Other soil types in the State are black cotton soils, alluvial,
rocks and boulders accounting for 25 percent, 20 percent and 7 percent of the
area respectively. The soils in Nizamabad, Warangal and Nalgonda districts
are deficient in nitrogen (less than 44%). Phosphorous deficiency (less than
55%) is prevalent in the districts of Adilabad, Medak, Mahabubnagar and
Nizamabad Districts.

3. LAND UTILIZATION PARTICULARs
The total Geographical area of the State is 276.96 lakh acres and the Land
use particulars of Telangana State during 2019-20 are as follows:

(Source: DES 2019-20)
4. IRRIGATION
The Gross area irrigated in the State during 2019-20 has increased to
77.37 lakh acres from 50.09 lakh acres showing an increase of 44.52% and
the Net irrigated area in the state has increased to 54.16. lakh acres from
36.70 lakh acres which is an enhancement of about 48.80%. Irrigation
Intensity for 2019-20 is 1.42.
(Source: DES 2019-20)

5. CROPPING INTENSITY
Cropping intensity is one of the indices for assessing the efficiency of
agriculture sectors. It is nothing but raising number of crops on the same field
in a year. The cropping intensity i.e. the ratio of Gross area sown to Net area
sown during 2019-20 is 1.24. The level of cropping intensity moves in
accordance with the behavior of the Monsoon and availability of water in
irrigation sources. Higher cropping intensity implies higher area sown more
than once.
6. LAND HOLDING PARTICULARS

Agriculture production depends, to a considerable extent, upon the size
of the unit of cultivation. According to the census, the average size of land
holding per farmer in the state during 2010-11 was at 1.12 hectares and it
has fallen to 1.00 hectare due to further fragmentation of the farm holdings,
since more than 70% of rural population is dependent on Agriculture only.
The total numbers of operational holdings in the State are 59.48 lakhs
covering an area of 61.7 lakh hectares. The Number of operational holdings
belonging to various categories (2015-16 census) is indicated below:
Number of
S.No Category Holdings percentage
( in lakhs)
1 Marginal (below 0.5 to 1.0 ha) 38.40 64.56
2 Small (1 to 2.0 ha) 14.09 23.69
3 Semi Medium(2-4 -ha) 5.64 9.48
4 Medium (4-10 ha) 1.26 2.12
5 Large (>10 ha) 0.09 0.15
Total 59.48 100
The majority land holding fall under the category of marginal i.e., below 0.5
to 1.00hectare. The % of marginal holdings has increased from 61% (2010-
11 census) to 64.56%(2015-16), small farmers are 23.69% in number,
whereas semi-medium and medium holdings comprises of 9.48% and 2.12%
respectively, while large holdings are only 0.15%. The average size of holding
in Telangana state is 1.00 ha or 2.47 acres as compared to 1.12 ha or 2.76
acres (2010-11 census)
(Source: Agricultural Statistics at glance 2017-18 (2015-16 census)).

7. CROPPING PATTERN
In Telangana State crops are grown in both Vanakalam and Yasangi
seasons. During 2019-20, the area under all crops during Vanakalam was
122.66 lakh acres and during Yasangi it was 53.82 lakh acres against the
normal of107.09 lakh acres and 31.58 lakh acres respectively.
Food crops occupy major portion. However from 2001-02, the food crop
area has reduced over a period of time and came down to 64% during 2019-
20 from 71% during 2001-02.The area under nonfood crops increased to that
extent. Cotton, Paddy, Maize, Soybean and Pulses during Vanakalam and
Paddy, Groundnut, Bengalgram during Yasangi are the major crops.
8. AGRO -CLIMATIC ZONES

Based on climatic parameters i.e. Rainfall, Soils and cropping pattern
etc., the State is divided into 3 Agro-climatic zones. The agricultural
planning for each zone is supported with the research and recommendations
of Regional Agricultural Research Stations of PJTSAU setup within each zone.

9. ABOUT DEPARTMENT
Sustainable and economical crop production is the life line for a farmer,
who sheds his energy not only for his livelihood but also for the survival of the
non-farming community. It is therefore, the fundamental duty of the
Government is to safeguard the interests of the farmer. The department of
Agriculture as one arm of the Government has been established to perform
the Extension and Regulatory functions in the process of harmonizing the
farming community.
For the year 2020-21, the department will focus on the following
strategies:
 With a view to take up regulated crop planning in the State, PJTSAU and
the Department of Agriculture are advising farming community to
diversify to crop which have high market demand.
 It is planned that cotton will be cultivated in 60.16 lakh acres, while
paddy can be taken up in about 41.76 lakh acres of which 60 % will be
of fine varieties. Red gram is proposed to be cultivated in about 12.31
lakh acres. It is planned to take up Soyabean in 4.68 lakh acres, Jowar
in 1.53 lakh acres and green gram in 1.88 lakh acres.
 During vanakalam, exemption can be given for Maize cultivation,
towards seed production purpose, as sweet corn, as inter crop in
turmeric crop, whereas Maize can be promoted widely during Yasangi.
Maize cultivated to meet the demand from poultry may also be
exempted.
 It must be ensured that each Agricultural Extension Officers should
maintain data about accurate acreage in their clusters with details of
crops grown in each gunta.
 It is decided that enumeration of crop sown should be made on daily
basis. Dash Board is created which can clearly indicate the gunta wise
crops sown.
 Plan is prepared to produce 1.00 core tons of fine varieties of paddy for
domestic consumption and for 1.30 crore tons for PDS.
 Wide publicity was given about promotion of fine varieties of paddy,
diversifying maize area to red gram etc to the farming community duly
involving public representatives. During these awareness campaigns
7
pledge was taken to assure cultivation of crop which has high market
demand.
 District, Mandal, Cluster Agriculture Cards are prepared. Yasangi District
Agriculture Plan will be prepared much earlier, well in advance to the
season to enable systematic crop planning. Village wise cards shall be
issued to the farmers
 The overall purpose of Regulated Crop planning is to motivate farmers
go in for demand driven crops which will lead to enhanced income to the
farming community.
 Establishment of 2604 Rythu Vedikas at each cluster level with an aim
to disseminate latest agriculture technology and to interact with farmers
 Implementation of the Crop Loan Waiver Scheme-2018, for loan
amounts up to Rs.1.00 lakh per family. All crop loans sanctioned/
renewed on or after 01.04.2014 and outstanding as on 11.12.2018.The
farmers who have outstanding loan up to Rs.25,000/- only will be
waived off in the 1st Phase. The Government has released an amount of
Rs.1210.00 crores for extending benefit to the farmers having
outstanding loan up to Rs.25,000/- only in the 1st Phase
 Department is making concerted efforts to expand the area under
millets, facilitate value addition and market linkages involving SHGs,
FPOs.
 Besides Rythu Bandhu & Rythu Bima, the department is also
implementing PM-KISAN which is a Government of India scheme.
 Ensuring timely input supply and regulation of inputs and quality control.
 Calamity Management in the event of drought, floods, hailstorms etc.
 Create awareness about KCC (Kisan Credit Cards) thereby expanding the
reach of institutional credit loans by farmers.
 Providing day-to-day information to farmer on crop production, input
supply, and marketing through Internet Services and AGRISNET.
The Infrastructure:
The department of Agriculture is continuously working for the benefit of

farming community. The extension staff is periodically oriented with the
advance technology emerging from time to time through trainings,
workshops; interactions etc., Farmers Training Centers, laboratories, ATMA
units are functioning etc., to equip the farmers with necessary details and
knowledge for successful agriculture.

IV. SEEDS
1. OBJECTIVES & DISTRIBUTION UNDER DIFFERENT

SCHEMES
Seed is the most critical of all agricultural inputs and determines the
performance and efficiency of other inputs for enhancing productivity and
production and thereby income of the farmers. It is therefore, essential that
quality seeds with good genetic potential appropriate to the agro-climatic
conditions are produced in sufficient quantities at affordable price and made
available to the farmers timely for achieving higher agricultural production.
Supply of quality seed is not a one-time affair. Three seasons are
required for production of certified seed from the Breeder seed. Lot of planning
is required to ensure that right crop variety is available to the farmers at the
right time. There is need to replace the existing seed replacement rate of 33%
for self-pollinated crops, 50% for cross pollinated crops and 100% for hybrids
to achieve the food production target of the future.
Seed Production and distribution is a continuous process. To produce
quality/certified seed and to develop State as Seed Bowl, a long term Seed
Production Plan is required by involving various Research Institutions,
Government Department/Agencies and Private Seed Producing Companies.
There are three stages of seed production i.e., Breeder Seed, Foundation Seed
and Certified Seed which are to be strengthened to produce required quantity
of certified seed and to develop each village as a Seed Village in Telangana
State.
The Government sectors are mainly concentrating on production of high
volume and low value crop seeds of notified varieties of Paddy, Jowar, Red
gram, Green gram, Black gram, Bengal gram, Groundnut, Castor and
Sesamum. The Private Companies are involved in the production of low
volume and high value Hybrid crops seeds such as Cotton, Maize, Sunflower,
Jowar, Bajra and also Paddy.
Objectives:
 Seed is a critical determinant in increasing the agricultural production.
 The performance and efficiency of other inputs depends on the quality
of seed. Certified/quality seed plays an important role in achieving
higher yields.
 Hence supply of quality seed to the farmers is one of the most important
interventions to increase the production and productivity of any crop.
46
 To bring more area under cultivation certified or quality seed must be
supplied at affordable prices and in adequate quantities to the farmers.
 The area under cultivation is not going to increase significantly; the
thrust will have to be on rising productivity per unit of cultivated land.
 To promote new varieties of different crops under different schemes.
In Telangana the Seed production chain is being strengthened by

producing various classes of seed i.e. Breeder seed, Foundation seed and
certified seed by different Government and Private Institutions. The
certified/quality and improved seed thus produced is being distributed to the
farmers through the various Central and State schemes. This is one of the
most effective way of increasing the production and productivity at the field
level.
Supply of seed on subsidy means the average farmers are able to
purchase the most critical input in agriculture i.e. seed at affordable price
which will help in achieving desirable increase in production and productivity.
The main thrust while supplying the seed on subsidy is for varietal
replacement and promotion of Pulses and Oilseed crops.
In order to achieve the food production target of the future, a major
effort will be required to enhance the seed replacement rate of various crops.
It would require a major increase in the production of certified/quality seed.
Subsidy seed distribution under different schemes:

Subsidy Seed Plan for the year 2020 is prepared based on the category-
wise budget assigned by the Government for the seed supply and also district
wise, season wise, and village wise seed sales and requirement as furnished
by the District Agriculture officers in the State.
It is planned to distribute 2.376 lakh qtl of seed under subsidy during
2020-21. Arrangements are already made for supply of certified/quality seed
on subsidy to the farmers under various schemes as detailed below:
1. Normal State Plan (NSP).

2. Rastriya Krishi Vignan Yojana (RKVY).
The subsidy seed will be supplied by the various seed supplying

Government nodal agencies i.e. TSSSDC, TSOILFED, HACA, MARKFED and
NSC. The district-wise component-wise seed plan is provided in the Annexure.
The crop wise subsidy seed planned and estimated expenditure is as detailed

V. FERTILIZERS
1. SUPPLY PLAN OF N, P & K FERTILIZERS

Nutrient Based Subsidy Policy (NBS Policy):
Department of Fertilizers (DoF), Government of India communicated the
Nutrient Based Subsidy Policy from 01.04.2010.
 The Department of Fertilizers, Govt. of India implemented the Nutrient
Based Subsidy Policy from 1-4-2010. Under this policy, fixed subsidy is
extended on the fertilizer products (except Urea) based on the Nutrient
content. The fertilizer companies will decide indicative MRPs based on
the cost of the raw materials / Finished Goods (FGs) in the international
market. The State Government has no role regarding fixation of MRPs
of fertilizers.
Subsidy applicable:
 The primary nutrients of N, P, K and Sulphur (S) are eligible for subsidy
(Theper Kg subsidy fixed is N- Rs.18.789/-, P-Rs.14.888/-, K-
Rs.10.116/-, S- Rs.2.374/- for the year 2020-21).
 Additional per ton subsidy is given for fertilizers carrying other
secondary and micro-nutrients. This is to encourage balanced use of
fertilizers. The per MT additional subsidy on Boron is Rs.300/- and for
Zinc Rs.500/-.
 The Department of Fertilizers (DoF) fixes the subsidy of fertilizers and
the companies will fix the MRPs reasonably, which will be monitored by
Department of Fertilizers from time to time.
Sale of fertilizers through PoS machines:
 With the introduction of DBT and roll out of implementation of DBT pan
India, the sale of fertilizers is made mandatory through PoS machines
only, based on aadhar card of the farmers.
Printing on the Bags:
 The fertilizer companies are required to print the Maximum Retail Prices
(MRP) along with the applicable subsidy on the fertilizer bags clearly.
Any sale above the printed MRP will be punishable under EC Act.
 All the Fertilizer Inspectors will ensure compliance of the above item.
 The distribution and movement of fertilizers along with import of

finished fertilizers, fertilizer inputs and production by indigenous units
55
will continue to be monitored through the online web based “Integrated
Fertilizer Monitoring System (iFMS), (Erstwhile FMS and mFMS)”.
SUPPLY PLAN OF FERTILIZERS:
The product-wise monthly allocations to the States i.e. supply plans will
be decided and communicated to the States by the Department of Fertilizers
(DoF), GoI and in turn to the districts from the head Office.
The district-wise fertilizer consumption in Kharif 2019 and Rabi 2019-20
is enclosed at Annexure-I.
The district-wise fertilizer requirement for Kharif 2020 and estimates for
Rabi 2020-21 are given in the Annexure II.
Integrated Fertilizer Monitoring System (iFMS)
 Department of Fertilizers, Government of India is implementing iFMS

(Integrated Fertilizer Monitoring System) to track the movement and
information availability & visibility across whole Supply Chain.
 The State’s availability and requirement is monitored by the Dept of
Fertilizers through dash board Urvarak.nic.in
 The Department of Fertilizer, Govt., of India is implementing the project
and National Informatics Centre (NIC), Ministry of Communication &
Information Technology, Government of India is the technology partner.
OBJECTIVE OF THE PROJECT:
 The objective of the iFMS (Integrated Fertilizer Monitoring System) is to

monitor the movement of the fertilizer from the company to Warehouse,
Wholesalers and from Wholesalers to Retailers.
 The system will help in monitoring the movement of Fertilizer’s
consignments and its stock position at various warehouses, wholesalers,
and retailers.
 The system will also act as a tool for Government Bodies to track and
ensure the timely distribution of fertilizers to the farmers.
The Three Phases
Phase 1: Information Visibility till the Retailer
The objective of this phase is to create information visibility of the
movement of fertilizer along the supply chain from the manufacturer till the
retailer.
Phase 2: Subsidy payment to Manufacturer
56
Till date the subsidy is released to the fertilizer Manufacturers based on
actual receipts. However, with the Government decision to implement DBT in
fertilizers, is realized Pan India, the subsidy will be released to the
Manufacturer based on the actual sales made by the retailer.
Phase 3: Subsidy Payment to Farmers
In the Interim stage, it is envisaged that the subsidy will be released to
the farmer in the long run, once the coverage of Aadhaar is extensive
throughout the country. It is proposed to be done in two phases:
a. Information flow on sales to individual farmers
b. Transfer of subsidy to farmers.
Direct Benefit Transfer: Introduction of e-pos machines:

The Government of India has rolled out Aadhar enabled Fertilizer
Distribution System (AeFDS) pan India. The sale of fertilizers is done through
e-pos machines in by retail fertilizer outlets. AeFDS will effectively monitor the
distribution of fertilizers across the value chain from Manufacturers till farmers
and to ensure timely and correct distribution of fertilizers through Aadhar
numbers of farmers which are linked with web land.
The fertilizer requirement allotted by Dept of Fertilizers, Govt. of India,
for Kharif-2020 is 22.30 LMTs and estimates for Rabi 2020-21 i.e., LMTs
are given in the Annexure II.
Buffer Maintenance by TS Markfed:

Buffer stocks are source of assured fertilizer to the state to meet the
exigency. Government have appointed TS MARKFED as Nodal Agency to
maintain 4.00 LMT (3.00 LMT urea + 0.30 LMT DAP + 0.70 LMT complexes)
of fertilizer buffers in the state during 2020-21, to ensure availability of stocks
to farmers through societies at MRPs.
The district-wise targets are given to TS MARKFED to maintain buffers
at the district headquarters to ensure timely availability of fertilizers to the
farmers.
57
2. QUALITY CONTROL
Fertilizer is declared as Essential Commodity and is a critical input in
crop production. The Fertilizer Control Order, 1985 and Fertilizer Movement
Control Order, 1973 regulates the quality and movement aspects of the
fertilizers, to ensure supply of quality fertilizers to the farming community.
The department is taking following necessary steps to ensure the supply
of quality fertilizers to the farmers.
 An annual prorata target of 11000 fertilizer samples is fixed for the year
2020-21. The district-wise, month-wise targets are annexed herewith.
All the Notified Authorities i.e., ADA®s are authorized to take immediate
action on the fertilizer samples declared non-standard, as applicable.
 The DAOs were also directed to instruct the concerned Fertilizer
Inspectors to adhere strictly to the product-wise targets communicated
without any deviation. Top Priority should be given to drawl of as many
fertilizer samples of NPK mixtures, 100% WS complexes, SSP etc, as
possible to ensure that quality fertilizers are supplied to the farmers.
 There are two composite fertilizer testing labs notified by the State
Government at Rajendranagar, Warangal and Kothapally (Karimnagar)
with an annual analyzing capacity of @ 4500 fertilizer samples per lab.
However, at present the FCO Lab at Rajendranagar is taking up analysis
of both inorganic and organic fertilizer samples drawn by the Fertilizer
Inspectors in the State.
 These labs analyze the fertilizer samples received from all over the state
to ensure quality of fertilizers supplied to the farmers.
 Pre-season inspections duly forming internal squads for 100%
verification of all the licensed fertilizer dealers to ensure that the dealers
are complying with the provisions of FCO, 1985 will be taken up by the
DAOs and also instructed to take stringent action against erring dealers
such as cancellation of licences, as per applicable provisions of FCO,
1985.
Fertilizer Coding Centre:

Fertilizer Coding Centre was established on 1st December 2004 with a
purpose of maintaining secrecy while the analysis of Fertilizer Samples
received from the Fertilizer Inspectors throughout the State.
Certain Statutory Time Frames under Fertilizer Control Order 1985 to
be followed by Fertilizer Inspectors and the Analysts:
58
Time Schedule as per clause 30 of Fertilizer Control Order 1985 is as follows:
1. Where the fertilizer sample drawn by the Fertilizer Inspector shall be
dispatched for analysis to Fertilizer Coding Centre within THREE days
under acknowledgment.
2. The Laboratory should analyze and dispatch the analysis report with
respect to chemical fertilizers, within FIFTEEN days and for Bio /Organic
fertilizers within THIRTY days from the date of receipt of sample from
Fertilizer Coding Centre
3. The Fertilizer Inspector should communicate the analysis result to the
concerned within SEVEN days from the date of receipt of analysis report
from the fertilizer Coding Centre.
Re-Analysis:
The aggrieved Dealer/Distributor/Manufacturer can exercise the option
of reanalysis under clause 32 (A) (2) and 32(2) of Fertilizer Control Order,
1985 within 30 days from the date of receipt of analysis and the same will be
sent for reanalysis to any of the 64 laboratories notified by the Government
of India by the Appellant Authority and the result of Reanalysis of the referral
laboratory super cedes the contents of the earlier report.
Third Test (Clause 32 A (3)

When there is a wide variation in the two analysis reports / fails in
different parameters, may appeal to the Appellate authority (Commissioner &
Director of Agriculture) for Third Test of such sample within 30 days from the
date of receipt of analysis report.
FCO Labs:
There are 3 existing Notified laboratories in the State for conduct of
Fertilizer samples analysis as per the provisions of FCO, 1985 in the following
districts:
1. FCO Lab, Rajendranagar : Ranga Reddy

VI. PLANT PROTECTION
Plant protection needs greater attention to prevent yield loss due to
incidence of pest and diseases. This can be achieved through release of new
pest and disease resistant varieties, development of new pesticides molecules,
by adopting Integrated Pesticide management practices and timely
communication of plant protection measures to the farmers through print and
electronic media.
The pesticide consumption is reduced due to increased awareness
created among farmers on Integrated Pest Management practices by
conducting Farmers field programs in farmer’s fields, introductions of Bt.
Hybrid in cotton, timely communication regarding bio-pesticide usage and
adoption of “Integrated Pesticide Management Practices” to the farmers
through extension programs, Print and electronic media.
Pest & Diseases:

In Telangana the major crops growing are Paddy, Cotton, Soyabean,
Chilli, Redgram & Other Pulses and Millets. The major pests and diseases
incidence observed in Paddy were Stem borer and Rice Blast. In Cotton crop,
pink boll worm is the major pest.
Pest and Disease Management in Paddy:
During the Yasangi season 2019-20, RNR-15048, HMT, Sona, MTU-
1010, KNM-118 short duration varieties are grown. In some areas Zinc
deficiency and Sulphide injury were observed. To reduce this farmers are
advised to remove the excess water and advised to spray Zinc Sulphate @
400 gms/acre.
In Telangana districts, DAATT centre scientists and agriculture
department informed that blast disease and stem borer was observed in
Paddy. If blast disease is not controlled in the initial stages it will cause neck
blast in later stages and cause more damage.
Rice Blast- Management Practices:
 Farmers are advised avoid the application of nitrogen fertilizers. If
normal conditions exist, recommended for split application of Nitrogen
fertilizers(3-4 times)
 Advised to remove weed hosts from bunds.
 To improve the resistance, recommended for application of Potash in
the form of MOP @ 10-15 Kgs/acre in two splits.
66
 To control, spray Tricyclazole + Mancozeb @ 2.5 g/lt water or
Isoprothiolane @ 1.5 ml or Kasugamycin @ 2.5 ml per litre of water
twice in 7-10 days interval.
Control Measures for Stem borer in Paddy:

 In boot leaf stage of paddy, Spray Cartap Hydrochloride 50% SC @ 400
gms or Chlorantraniliprole 60 ml per acre in 200 lts of water.
Action Plan for Vanakalam 2020:

 Conducting awareness campaigns with Agricultural extension staff, KVK
scientists in coordination with ATMA.
 Educating the farmers on latest technology updates in coordination with
PJTSAU.
 Ensuring the availability of quality pesticides sufficiently in Telangana
Districts.
Advisory on Pink bollworm (PBW) on Cotton crop to minimize the

survival and Damage
1. Farmers may be apprised of a list of high productive short duration
varieties/ hybrids that would escape Pink Boll worm. Farmers may be
informed that long duration hybrids would attract higher PBW
infestation.
2. Facilitate mass production of biological control agent Trichogramma
bactrae using mass production protocol available with ICAR-NBAIR,
Bangalore. The parasitoids may be released during October-December
across the state.
3. Farmers may be advised to :
a. Install pink boll worm pheromone traps @ 2 traps per acre at 45
days after sowing.
b. To remove and destroy ‘ Rosette Flowers’
c. To indicate chemical control measures when pest crossed ETL
(Economic Threshold Level) - i.e.10% damaged flowers (Rosettee
flowers) or 10% damaged green bolls (at least two out of 20 bolls
having white or pink larvae or exit holes) or 8 moths catch per
pheromone trap for consecutive 3 days.
d. To spray Chloropyriphos or Quinolphos or Thiodicarb during
midsummer to October and use any synthetic parathyroidin
November- December only in fields having at least 8-10 green bolls
67
per plant. Insecticide spray must be done to protect green bolls only
after picking the fully open bolls.
4. Farmers may be encouraged to access pest situation on their farms.
About 20 green bolls from 20 random plants may be dissected once a
week from mid- September to December. Only on attaining economic
threshold level of 10-15 % boll damage with live PBW larvae, the above
insecticide sprays may be recommended.
5. Recommended termination of all cotton crop by October in North Zone
states (Punjab, Haryana and Rajasthan) where sowing is done in April-
May and in December/ mid – January in Central and South zone states
where sowing is being taken up in June.
6. Encourage and insist on installation of pheromone traps at all market
yards and ginneries for mass trapping of Pink boll worm moths.
7. Encourage programmes for Cotton stalk composting or chaffing and
incorporation in soil to improve soil carbon content.
8. Cotton stalks have industrial application for particle boards, energy,
charcoal pelleting etc., CIRCOT Mumbai may be contacted for complete
details. Area wide collection and processing may be taken up effective
utilization of cotton stalks and for value addition that provide additional
income to farmers.
9. Conduct regular trainings for farmers on pest scouting and eco-friendly
management practices.
10. Encourage farmers to follow IPM/IRM practices especially during the first
three months of crop growth which will delay or even avert or minimize
use of insecticides.
11. Strictly discourage the use of insecticide mixtures.
12. Consider the weekly advisories issued by ICAR-CICR and State
Agricultural Universities for dissemination among farmers.
13. ICAR-CICR has developed integrated “CICR Cotton App” and it is
available in Google play store. Weekly advisories issued by ICAR – CICR
shall also be made available on CICR Cotton App in addition to ICAR-
CICR website. All Stake holders are recommended to use and encourage
wide use of ICAR-CICR Cotton Advisory and the App for better cotton
production and pest management.
14. Launch Extensive Awareness campaign to avoid pre-season sowing as
well as minimize the sowing window.

VII. EXTENSION
1. CREDIT:
 Agricultural credit is one of the most crucial inputs in all agricultural

development programmes.
 SLBC will assign the District wise Credit Targets i.e., Crop Loans and
Term Loans based on the Focus paper released by the NABARD
 The major sources of credit are banks (all commercial banks, co-
operatives, RRB’s and private sector banks).
 Kharif loans will be disbursed from 1st April to 30th September and Rabi
loans are disbursed from 1st October to 31st March by the banks.
 Bankers issue the crop loans as per Scale of Finance specified for the
year 2020-21.
 Bankers issue Kisan Credit Cards to farmers as per RBI guidelines to
ease the loan processing.

2. CROP LOAN WAIVER:
Taking plight of the farmers into consideration in the State, the
Government while giving priority to Agriculture sector has waived off the
outstanding loans of all the farmers in the state as on 31.03.2014 earlier.
In the current dispensation, crop loans are usually sanctioned for a

period of one year and rolled over at the end of the year on payment of
interest. There are hardly, fresh few loans giving cash inflow to farmers thus
forcing them to purchase high cost inputs on credit at a very high interest.
The Government of Telangana is convinced that unless this cycle is broken
with crop loan waiver, farmers will remain trapped in perpetual indebtedness.
Keeping in view this imperative, the Government of Telangana has once
again formulated the Crop Loan Waiver Scheme-2018 following
announcement made by Hon’ble Chief Minister in this regard. This scheme
covers only institutional loans and does not cover loans from non-institutional
sources.
Scope of the Crop Loan Waiver Scheme and Eligible Amount:

This scheme will cover short term production loans, and crop loans against
gold, disbursed to farmers in the Telangana State by scheduled commercial
banks, cooperative credit institutions (including urban cooperative banks) and
regional rural banks, collectively called as the “lending institutions”.
The eligible amount for waiver will be up to Rs.1.00 lakh (Principal together
with applicable interest) per family. The farmer family is defined as head of
the family, spouse and dependent children. Eligible amount shall not include
Processing charges, Legal charges, Insurance, Inspection Charges etc.
Cut-off date:
All Crop Loans sanctioned/renewed on or after 01.04.2014 and
outstanding as on 11.12.2018 are eligible.
The following loans/accounts shall not be eligible under the Crop

Loan Waiver Scheme.
a) Advances against pledge or hypothecation of agriculture produce other
than standing crop
b) Tie-up- loans
c) Closed crop loan accounts/Write-off Loans
d) Loans to JLGs/RMGs/LECs
e) Restructured/Reschedule Loans
77
Short term production loan means a loan given in connection with the raising
of crops which is to be repaid within 18 months. It will include working capital
loan, for traditional and non-traditional plantation and horticulture.
Schedule of Loan Waiver:
a. In respect of those farmers who have outstanding loan up to Rs.25,000/-

only will be waived off in the 1st Phase under the Budget Allocation for
the year 2019-20.
b. For other farmers, the eligible loan amount (up to Rs.1.00 lakh) shall be
waived off in four equal installments
Claim Reimbursement by the Government:
i. The final list consolidated village-wise and district- wise will be

submitted by the SLBC which in turn will raise a claim to the
Government and will be reimbursed to the Farmer through Account
Payee Cheques
ii. The Aquittance based on final Annexure-E will be downloaded and

printed from the Portal in the Districts and obtain the farmers Signatures
on the Aquittance in duplicate by the Agriculture Department, after
handing over Cheque/Cheques.
iii. An undertaking should be taken by Agriculture Department from the

farmer during the disbursement, that he/she shall repay the amount of
waiver if it is found subsequently that he/she has fraudulently obtained
the crop loan or is found not eligible for crop loan waiver under the
Scheme
Monitoring and Grievance Redressal:
There will also be a suitable monitoring and grievance redressal mechanism

established at Mandal, District and State levels in the Portal and every
representation has to be disposed off within 30 days by concerned authorities
duly informing the same to the Applicant.
An amount of Rs.622500.00 lakhs is allocated under the scheme for the

financial year 2020-21.

XIV. NATIONAL FOOD SECURITY MISSION
The National Food Security Mission (NFSM), during the 12th Five Year
Plan, had four components (i) NFSM-Rice (ii) NFSM-Pulses (iii) NFSM-Coarse
Cereals and (iv) NFSM-Commercial Crops.
During 2017-18, the programme was implemented with components/
interventions/cost norms/pattern of assistance of 12th plan. On the basis of
EFC a recommendation which was held on 29.11.2017, from the years 2018-
19 and 2019-20, NMOOP and Seed Village Programme are now a part of NFSM
and thus NFSM will have seven components viz.
(i) NFSM- Rice;

(ii) NFSM-Pulses;
(iii) NFSM-Coarse Cereals (Maize, Barley),
(iv) NFSM-Sub Mission on Nutri Cereals;
(v) NFSM-Commercial Crops;
(vi) NFSM-Oilseeds and Oilpalm; and
(vii) NFSM-Seed Village Programme.
These Operational Guidelines are for NFSM-Food grains, Commercial

Crops, Oilseeds and Oilpalm, Seed Village Programme and Sub Mission on
Nutri-cereals.
Objectives:
 Increasing production of rice, pulses, and coarse cereals through area
expansion and productivity enhancement in a sustainable manner in
the identified districts of the State
 Restoring soil fertility and Productivity at the individual farm level.
 Enhancing farm level economy to restore confidence among the farmers
Strategy:
 Focus on low productivity and high potential districts including
cultivation of food grain crops in rain fed areas.
 Implementation of cropping system centric interventions in a Mission
mode approach through active engagement of all the stakeholders at
various levels.
 Agro-climatic zone wise planning and cluster approach for crop
productivity enhancement.
95
 Focus on pulse production through utilization of rice fallow, rice bunds
and intercropping of pulses with coarse cereals, oilseeds and commercial
crops (sugarcane, cotton, jute).
 Promotion and extension of improved technologies i.e., seed, integrated
nutrient management (INM) including micronutrients, soil
amendments, integrated pest management (IPM), input use efficiency
and resource conservation technologies along with capacity building of
the farmers/extension functionaries.
 Close monitoring of flow of funds to ensure timely reach of interventions
to the target beneficiaries.
 Integration of various proposed interventions and targets with the
district plan of each identified district.
 Constant monitoring and concurrent evaluation by the implementing
agencies for assessing the impact of the interventions for a result
oriented approach.

XVI. NATIONAL MISSION ON AGRICULTURE
EXTENSION & TECHNOLOGY
1. EXTENSION REFORMS UNDER SUB MISSION ON
AGRICULTURE EXTENSION (SMAE):
Introduction:
Telangana state is the 29th State of India. Agriculture is on the top of the
State Government agenda. The state is one of the largest producer of rice in
India and leading producer of cash crops like Cotton, Maize, sugarcane, Oil
seeds, Soybean, Groundnut, Turmeric, Mango, Grapes, Citrus. The envisaged
growth in excess of 6% in the Agriculture sector is possible only if the farm
incomes improve substantially. In fact the state was called the granary of
Southern India a decade back. But in the recent years decelerating agricultural
growth has become a cause of concern. Added to this, agriculture is exposed
to global competition, climatic variation, market fluctuations and declining
public investment and shrinking resources base in agricultural sector during
past two decades. If this scenario continues further, it will have severe effect
on state‘s overall economic growth rate in the era of liberalization & economic
reforms and there will be social imbalances also.
In view of the above facts the Government of India has brought Reforms
in Extension system of agriculture and allied sectors during the year 2005-06
by encouraging innovations in technology dissemination, involvement of
private sector in agricultural extension, group approach, gender concerns, IT
support to extension, market linkages, multi agency extension strategies and
convergence of line departments to rejuvenate the existing extension system.
These reforms can accelerate agricultural growth rate to 5-6% every
year, making it more productive, competitive, sustainable and rise to global
standards in agricultural produce for exports.
The Extension reforms Scheme is being implemented in the entire state
of Telangana covering all the districts.
During 2018, Ministry of Agriculture, GOI has approved the guidelines of
the Sub Mission on Agricultural Extension under the National Mission on
Agricultural Extension & Technology under the Umbrella Scheme “Krishi Unnati
Yojana” duly modifying some of the guidelines of the existing ATMA scheme.
Preparation of State Extension Work Plan (SEWP):

All the ATMA districts have developed their District Action Plans
comprising of Strategic plan, HRD plan and Budgetary requirements for the
116
year 2020-21 as per the guidelines of the Sub Mission on Agricultural Extension
2018. Budgetary proposals has been made keeping in view of the cost norms,
inclusion of salaries for deputed functionary support working under ATMA at
various levels for the year 2020-21.
The manpower status has been worked out for all the 32 (30 existing +
2 New districts) rural districts and at state level for placement of 458 posts
with a budget requirement of Rs.2353.06 lakhs as there is every need for
placement of Specialist & Functionary Support at State Level and District Level
in every cadre due to reorganization of the districts in the state.
Therefore the State Extension Work Plan for the year 2020-21 has been
developed over and above the allocation with an out lay of Rs.3959.00 lakhs
in view of the deployment of manpower due to reorganization of districts and
for implementation of the scheme.
The gist of the State Extension Work Plans (SEWP) developed under
ATMA for year 2020-21 is as follows:
 Each district has developed department wise, activity wise strategic plan
as well as Farmer’s Training plan.
 The Strategic plan has been developed based on the district specific gaps
identified in each crop and commodity, farmers problems identified,
need based technologies required by the farmers for increasing the
income levels.
 As per the ATMA Guidelines 2018, 25 WD trainings each extra allocation
was included for aspirational districts Jayashankar Bhupalpalli,
Kumurambheem Asifabad and Bhadradri Kothagudem districts.
 Due to reorganization of the districts in the state there is every need for
placement of Specialist & Functionary Support at State Level and District
Level in every cadre i.e., PDs, DPDs, ATM, BTMs, Accountant cum clerk
and computer programmers for effective and successful implementation
of the ATMA scheme.
 The Farmers plan has been developed based on the training needs of the
farmers.

XVII. NATIONAL MISSION ON SUSTAINABLE
AGRICULTURE
1. RAINFED AREA DEVELOPMENT

Objectives:
 Increasing agricultural productivity of rainfed areas in a sustainable
manner by adopting appropriate farming system based approaches.
 To minimize the adverse impact of possible crop failure due to drought,
flood or un-even rainfall distribution through diversified and composite
farming systems.
 Restoration of confidence in rainfed agriculture by creating sustained
employment opportunities through improved on-farm technologies and
cultivation
practices.
 Enhancement of farmers’ income and livelihood support for reduction of
poverty in rainfed areas.
Benefits of the programme:
This will act as a catalyst to accomplish the ultimate objective of
enhanced productivity, minimizing the risk of crop losses due to uncertainties
of weather conditions, harnessing efficiency of resources, assuring food and
livelihood / income security at farm level and strengthen the farmers’ capacity
to adapt to climatic changes.
Brief guidelines for implementing RAD component under NMSA:
 RAD aims at promoting integrated farming system (IFS) with emphasis
on multi-cropping, rotational cropping, inter-cropping, mixed-cropping
practices with allied activities like horticulture, livestock, fishery, agro-
forestry, apiculture etc., to enable farmers not only in maximizing the
farm returns for sustaining livelihood, but also to mitigate the impacts
of drought, flood or other extreme weather events.
123
 Depending on the type and extent of natural resources/assets/
commodities already developed or supported, location-specific crops,
fruits, vegetables, spices, flowers, feed & fodder, livestock, fisheries,
apiculture, mushroom, medicinal & aromatic plantation and related
income generating activities would be supported.
 Adoption of a cluster approach in a village or an area of not less than
100 Ha (contiguous or non-contiguous in difficult terrain with close
proximity in a village/adjoining villages) may be preferred for injecting
investments to utilize the potential of available/created common
resources.
 Selected clusters will have soil analysis/soil health card as mandatory.
 Farmers would have the option to choose one or combination of farming
systems suitable to the specific eco-system supported through local
KVK, SAU, ICAR Centre, ICRISAT, ATMA etc., for maximizing agricultural
productivity from the existing natural resource assets.
 Support to each farm family under RAD component will be restricted to
a farm size of 2 Ha and financial assistance will be limited to Rs.1 lakh.
However, storage/processing unit and/or construction of poly house
etc., are excluded from these limits.

 It will promote balanced and judicious use of plant nutrients.
 Promotion of integrated nutrient system is expected to reduce the
consumption of chemical fertilizers by 20%.
 The productivity of selected crops is expected to increase about 20%.
 The demand for organic sources of plant nutrient like bio-fertilizers,
organic manure, vermi-compost, slow release nitrogenous fertilizer like
Neem/Sulphur coated urea will increase, which in turn improve the soil
fertility as well nutrient use efficiency.
Guidelines for Implementation:
(i) Awareness generation through training cum demonstration tothe
farmers:
 In selected villages, training cum demonstrations will be conducted by
Department of Agriculture in association with KVKs/ SAUS/ ICAR
Institutions. States can also involve Krishi Sakhis, AC & ABC trained
agri-entrepreneurs, selected NGOs, FPOs, Agriculture graduates in
awareness generation among farmers.
 Fertilizer companies should also be involved in the awareness
generation activities. Honorarium may be paid from the training
component.
(ii) Selection of Villages:
The following criteria for selection of villages may be adopted by the states:
 Villages that were found deficient in soil nutrients (in particular nutrients
& Sulphur) during cycle-II and model village’s programme or villages
problematic soils may be selected.
 Villages in all the districts should be taken up. The selected villages
should be approachable for visit by the farmers of other villages to see
and gain knowledge from the demonstrations organized on SHC
recommendation.
130
 The average yield of major cropping system in village is less than the
block /district average yield.
 Villages in which farmer's have inadequate awareness on significance /
utility of soil health card.
 Villages already covered under model village programme during 2019-
20 need not be covered again.
 Around 50000 Krishi Sakhis are existing in the country (under
Department of Rural Development) whose services can be utilized for
spreading awareness regarding SHC.
 The villages in which the Krishi Sakhis are there should be selected on
priority basis for training.
 Similarly, villages where there is presence of strong NRLM groups/
women Self Help Groups should be given priority.
