ISSUES of CONCERN • Low Productivity : • Rice is the major foodgrain crop. Highest Rice productivity (2009-10) i.e. 1765 Kg. per hectare as compared to national average of 2130 Kg. per hectare. • Very small & fragmented land holding : • More than 85% farmers are Small & Marginal against national average of 81%. • Average land holding : 1.11 hectare against national average of 1.33 hectare. • Average land holding of Small & Marginal farmers : 0.63 hectare. • Seed Certification : Seed Certification Agency (ASSCA) virtually defunct. • Net crop area under assured irrigation : 20%. • Consumption of fertiliser : 63.2 Kg. per hectare against 129 Kg. per hectare.
ISSUES of CONCERN • Negligible usages of Micronutrients :Applied in only in 3% of Net Cropped Area. • Availability of Farm Power : 0.70 HP per hectare against national average of 1.20 HP per hectare. • Weak marketing infrastructure (Villages connected with metalled Road): 35% • Low credit flow :More than 85% farm families are deprived of agricultural credit through KCCs. • Procurement : High moisture content of Paddy makes it unfit for procurement by FCI / State Agencies.
