  1. Adaptive Strategic Research Projects National Food Security Mission

  2. Strategic Research Projects under NFSM • National Food Security Mission launched in 2007‐08 for enhancing production and productivity of Rice, Wheat and Pulses during 11th Plan. • Experience gained during the course of NFSM implementation in 11th Plan suggested interventions need location‐specific and refinement of crop production technologies. • For validation of crop technologies to promote for large scale addressing crop productivity related constraints, provision of funds to support Strategic Research Projects under NFSM during 12th Plan .

  3. Conservation of natural resources (land, water) and their efficient use. • INM,IPM and IWM • Modification/refinements of farm machines/implements for different types of soils/cropping systems. • Up scaling of improved crop varieties/hybrids in NFSM adopted states/agro-climatic zones under water/thermal stress conditions. • Nutrient management in acidic/ alkaline/sodic soils . • Crop‐husbandry. • Inputs use efficiency. • Rain‐water harvesting management in kharif pulses. • Refinement of relay cropping systems. • Agronomic practices for intercropping systems involving pulses. • Quality seed storage in the humid and hot climatic conditions‐coastal areas. • Value addition in case of coarse cereals and pulses • Precision farming‐nutrient manager and crop manager • Any other relevant areas related to crop production Themes/ Areas of Research

  4. Research which aims at refinement and value addition to existing crop production/resource conservation/ post‐harvest technologies through famers’ participatory programme. • Addressing research gaps crucial to accomplishment of objectives of the Mission in short/medium term so that the outcome is available in 3‐4 years for adoption on large scale. • Scientific validation of innovative technologies made and used by farmers. • Anticipated outcome of the project should be practicable and economically viable. Research Projects for Support under NFSM

  5. Submission of Concept Note (not more than 5 pages) in identified research area by 20th December,2013. • Concept Note- justification, relevance of proposed research, goals of NFSM for attaining food security, duration , area of operation, expected outcome. • Decision for consideration/rejection of concept note of the research project at DAC. • After approval of concept note, detailed project proposals will be invited. Call for Research Project Proposals

  6. INDICATORS FOR RESEARCH PROJECT PROPOSAL

  7. Review of detailed project proposal by a panel of Experts. • Final approval of the project proposal at DAC. • Decision on the approval of project propsals would be communicated to Research Institute /SAU. Processing of Project Proposals

  8. Sanction of Project proposal up to terminal year of 12th Five Year Plan. • Release of Funds on yearly basis ( in two installments in financial year ) as per approved allocation. • Release of Funds next year after AUC of previous year. • Allocation of funds allocation under projects for up scaling of technologies or organization of demonstrations on large scale at par with NFSM cost norms. • Institutional charges admissible as per norms of Institute/ organization maximum up to 10% of the total allocated funds. Funding Mechanism

  9. Submission of Half Yearly Progress Report containing activity‐wise targets and achievement by 15th October. • Monitoring of the project by the team constituted by the DAC. • Submission of Annual Progress Report through Head of the Organization/Competent Authority by 15th May. • Review of Annual work at DAC. • Presentation of work done during project period at DAC. • Submission of Final report of the Project within two months after termination of the project. Monitoring and Evaluation

  10. Project Title • Name and address of the institute/ organisation seeking grant • Project summary • Introduction: Give background, relevance to goals of NFSM/production and productivity of food grain crops and justification. • Objectives: Enlist objectives that are clear and attainable within duration of the project. • Review of Research: • Review international and national research relevant to the proposed work and objectives, published during the past 10 years. A brief mention of ongoing research projects and work accomplished by the institute/organisation submitting project proposal. • Expertise and infrastructure available with Institute/Organisation for proposed project. Include background in brief, qualification and research experience of the PI/Co‐PI along with list of their publications. Give a gist of facilities available for carrying out proposed project at the institute/Organisation. • Duration of the project in years. • Work Plan: (i) Methodology (ii) Timeline of activities and activity milestones on half yearly basis. • Expected outcome and its likely impact on production and productivity of food grains, sustainability, climatic risk mitigation, resource conservation, input use efficiency, soil health etc. • Budgetary requirement in prescribed format. Application for Research Grant
