PREFACE

The National Commission on Farmers (NCF) under the chairmanship of Prof.

M.S. Swaminathan submitted its final report in October 2006. The NCF prepared, along

with its final report, a draft National Policy for Farmers incorporating its main

recommendations. Based on the draft prepared by the NCF and after consultations with

State Governments and the Central Ministries concerned, Government of India approved

the National Policy for Farmers, 2007.

The primary focus of this policy is on ‘farmer’ defined holistically and not merely

on agriculture. In that sense, it is much more comprehensive than an Agriculture Policy.

The objective is, inter alia, to improve the economic viability of farming through

substantially improving net income of farmers. Needless to say, there is emphasis on

increased productivity, profitability, institutional support, and improvement of land,

water and support services apart from provisions of appropriate price policy, risk

mitigation measures and so on.

The 53rd

meeting of the National Development Council (NDC) held on the 29th

May 2007 was exclusively for addressing issues of the agriculture sector. Government of

India has recently taken several initiatives such as the National Horticulture Mission, the

National Bamboo Mission, reforms in agricultural marketing, the revitalization of

cooperative credit structure and setting up of the National Fisheries Development Board

and the National Rainfed Area Authority. More recently, the National Food Security

Mission and the Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana (Additional Central Assistance Scheme)

have been approved to substantially enhance investment in agriculture and increase

production and productivity. All these initiatives are in consonance with the intent,

direction and measures suggested in the National Policy for Farmers.

I am confident that the new policy, together with the initiatives already taken by

the government, would help accelerate the overall growth of the sector and improve the

well-being of millions of farmers in the country.

National Policy for Farmers

1 NEED FOR POLICY RE-ORIENTATION

1.1 The importance of agriculture in the

socio-economic fabric of India can be

realised from the fact that the livelihood

of majority of the country’s population

depends on agriculture. The agriculture

sector contributes only about 18 per cent

of the total Gross Domestic Product

(GDP), with more than 60% population

dependence, resulting in low per capita

income in the farm sector. Consequently,

there is a large disparity between the per

capita income in the farm sector and the

non-farm sector. Therefore, it is essential

to deal with those issues which impact

the income levels of farmers. The

income levels are determined by the

overall production, supported by

reasonable levels of yield and prices

realised by the farmers. Several

constraints such as preponderance of

small and marginal holdings accounting

for about 82 per cent of total holdings,

imperfect market conditions and lack of

backward and forward linkages affect

the income levels of farmers adversely.

Accordingly, an appropriate policy

needs to be evolved to ensure that

farming activity becomes more viable

and the economic condition of farmers is

improved on a sustainable basis.

1.2 Several steps have been taken in the past

to strengthen agricultural research,

education and extension, as well as to

ensure timely and adequate availability

of essential inputs such as seeds,

fertilizer and electricity. Also, several

major and minor irrigation projects have

been implemented. An integrated

programme of agricultural development

was initiated in the early 1960s to

improve productivity and to benefit

farmers. Our scientists contributed by

developing high yielding varieties /

hybrids of crops. These were introduced

to farmers who, in turn, adopted the new

seeds and technology. As a result, a

major breakthrough in productivity and

production occurred in wheat in the late

1960s. Moreover, the new strategy laid

emphasis on greater cropping intensity.

Since then, the progress of agricultural

production was steady and the growth

rate in food production maintained a

level above that of population growth.

This came to be known as the “Green

Revolution Era” that resulted in a

situation of self sufficiency in

foodgrains. This era was characterised

by synergy among technology, services,

public policy and farmers’

entrepreneurship. However, during the

past decade, the growth rate shows a

declining trend; production and

productivity have remained almost

stagnant. A considerable effort,

therefore, is required to reverse the

deceleration and get agriculture moving

forward once again.

1.3 The National Agriculture Policy

approved by the Government of India

during 2000, aimed to achieve annual

growth of more than 4 per cent in the

agriculture sector on a sustainable basis,

through the efficient use of natural

resources and combination of other

measures. However, the annual growth

rate achieved during the Tenth Five Year

Plan (2002–03 to 2006–07) averaged

around 2.3 per cent. On the other hand

the non-farm sector has grown faster.

Considering the high growth of GDP in

the recent past, a major reorientation in

2

National Policy for Farmers

2 RECENT INITIATIVES

the policy is necessary to make this

growth more inclusive. The decline in

agricultural growth coupled with

declining profitability in the agriculture

sector, in the face of rapid growth of

non-farm sector, is one of the major

concerns. The declining profitability is

partially due to fluctuating world prices

of agricultural commodities and the

efforts to keep the domestic prices low

to protect consumers’ interest, which

resulted in decline in the terms of trade

for the farm sector. This, coupled with

the stagnating and declining yield levels,

resulted in low income to the farmers.

1.4 Another major problem confronting the

rural areas in general and farm

households in particular, is the lack of

employment opportunities. Efforts are

needed to increase job opportunities in

the farm sector through increased

investment in irrigation, watershed

development, wasteland development,

land reclamation, etc. In addition, there

has to be a greater focus on the

accelerated development of the rural

non-farm sector and development of

clusters around towns/market centres. A

growing farm sector, better rural

infrastructure and connectivity, skill

development, adequate power supply

and easy availability of credit would

help in the creation of more employment

opportunities in the rural non-farm

sector and, in turn, enhance the income

of farm households.

1.5 In view of the above, there is a need to

focus more on the economic well-being

of the farmers, rather than just on

production. Socio-economic well-being

must be a prime consideration of

agricultural policy, besides production

and growth. The aim of the Policy is,

therefore, to stimulate attitudes and

actions which should result in assessing

agricultural progress in terms of

improvement in the income of farm

families, not only to meet their

consumption requirements but also to

enhance their capacity to invest in farm

related activities.

2.1 Several significant initiatives have

already been taken in recent years by the

government to reverse the downward

trend in agricultural production and to

find sustainable solutions for

strengthening the farmers’ livelihood

and income. Some of these important

initiatives include: (i) Bharat Nirman;

(ii) National Rural Employment

Guarantee Programme; (iii) National

Horticulture Mission; (iv) Expansion of

Institutional Credit to Farmers; (v)

Establishment of the National Bee

Board; (vi) Establishment of the

National Rainfed Area Authority; (vii)

Establishment of the National Fisheries

Development Board (NFDB); (viii)

Watershed Development and Micro

Irrigation Programmes; (ix) Reforms in

Agricultural Marketing and

Development of Market Infrastructure;

(x) Revitalisation of Cooperative

Sector; (xi) Agri-business Development

through Venture Capital Participation by

(xiv) National Food Security Mission;

(xv) Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana to

incentivise the states to invest more in

agriculture; (xvi) Integrated Food Law;

(xvii) Legislative Framework for

Warehousing Development and

Regulation; (xviii) Protection of Plant

Varieties and Farmers’ Rights (PPVFR)

Act, 2001; (xix) National Bamboo

Centres (CSC) and IT initiatives.

3.1 The major goals of the National Policy

for Farmers are:

(i) To improve economic viability of

farming by substantially increasing

the net income of farmers and to

ensure that agricultural progress is

measured by advances made in

this income.

(ii) To protect and improve land,

water, bio-diversity and genetic

resources essential for sustained

increase in the productivity,

profitability and stability of major

farming systems by creating an

economic stake in conservation.

(iii) To develop support services

including provision for seeds,

irrigation, power, machinery and

implements, fertilizers and credit

at affordable prices in adequate

quantity for farmers.

(iv) To strengthen the bio-security of

crops, farm animals, fish and

forest trees for safeguarding the

livelihood and income security of

farmer families and the health and

trade security of the nation.

(v) To provide appropriate price and

trade policy mechanisms to

enhance farmers’ income.

(vi) To provide for suitable risk

management measures for

adequate and timely compensation

to farmers.

(vii) To complete the unfinished agenda

in land reforms and to initiate

comprehensive asset and aquarian

reforms.

(viii) To mainstream the human and

gender dimension in all farm

policies and programmes.

(ix) To pay explicit attention to

sustainable rural livelihoods.

(x) To foster community-centred food,

water and energy security systems

in rural India and to ensure

nutrition security at the level of

every child, woman and man.

(xi) To introduce measures which can

help attract and retain youths in

farming and processing of farm

products for higher value addition

by making it intellectually

stimulating and economically

rewarding.

(xii) To make India a global

outsourcing hub in the production

and supply of the inputs needed

for sustainable agriculture,

products and processes developed

through biotechnology and

Information and Communication

Technology (ICT).

(xiii) To restructure the agricultural

curriculum and pedagogic

methodologies for enabling every

farm and home science graduate to

become an entrepreneur and to

make agricultural education

gender sensitive.

(xiv) To develop and introduce a social

security system for farmers.

(xv) To provide appropriate

opportunities in adequate measure

for non-farm employment for the

farm households.

3.2 Definition of Farmer

For the purpose of this Policy, the term

“FARMER” will refer to a person

actively engaged in the economic and/or

livelihood activity of growing crops and

producing other primary agricultural

commodities and will include all

agricultural operational holders,

cultivators, agricultural labourers,

sharecroppers, tenants, poultry and

livestock rearers, fishers, beekeepers,

gardeners, pastoralists, non-corporate

planters and planting labourers, as well

as persons engaged in various farming-

related occupations such as sericulture,

vermiculture, and agro-forestry. The

term will also include tribal families /

persons engaged in shifting cultivation

and in the collection, use and sale of

minor and non-timber forest produce.

4.1 The purpose of asset reforms is to ensure

that every farmer household in villages

possesses and/or has access to

productive assets like land, livestock,

fishpond, homestead farm and/or income

through an enterprise and or market-

driven skills, so that the household

income is increased substantially on a

sustainable basis. This, in turn, would

ensure nutrition and livelihood security

and their education and health

requirements.

4.2 Land

4.2.1 Considering the skewed ownership of

land, it is necessary to strengthen

implementation of laws relating to land

reforms, with particular reference to

tenancy laws, land leasing, distribution

of ceiling surplus land and wasteland,

providing adequate access to common

property and wasteland resources and

the consolidation of holdings. Following

the conferment of land rights to women

under the Hindu Succession

(Amendment) Act, 2005, the provision

of appropriate support services to

women farmers has become urgent.

Joint pattas for both homestead and

agricultural land are essential for

empowering women to access credit and

other services.

4.2.2 The Land Acquisition Act would be

reviewed with particular reference to the

assessment of compensation. Prime

farmland must be conserved for

agriculture except under exceptional

circumstances, provided that the

agencies that are provided with

agricultural land for non-agricultural

projects should compensate for treatment

and full development of equivalent

degraded / wastelands elsewhere.

Further, the commitment under the

existing re-settlement policy of the

Central / State governments would be

fulfilled in letter and spirit. For non-

agricultural purposes, as far as possible,

land with low biological potential for

farming would be earmarked and

5

National Policy for Farmers

allocated. State governments would be

advised to earmark lands with low

biological potential such as uncultivable

land, land affected by salinity, acidity,

etc., for non-agricultural development

activities, including industrial and

construction activities.

4.3 Water

4.3.1 Non-availability of timely and adequate

water for irrigation is now becoming a

serious constraint in achieving higher

productivity and stability of farming in

many parts of the country. Therefore,

assured irrigation is the need of the hour.

Though the total rainfall in our country

is satisfactory, its distribution is highly

skewed. Therefore, rainwater harvesting

and improving the efficiency of water-

use are important. It has been assessed

that even a 10 per cent increase in the

present level of water-use efficiency in

irrigation projects may help to provide

life-saving irrigation to crops in large

areas. Water-use efficiency can be

further enhanced by generating synergy

with seed varieties, nutrients (macro and

micro) and farm implements. The

concept of maximising yield and income

per unit of water would be used in all

crop production programmes. Water

users’ associations would be encouraged

to gain expertise in maximising the

benefits from the available water.

4.3.2 The majority of farmers depend on

groundwater for irrigation. This

resource, in which farmers may have

invested their hard-earned savings, is

being depleted and the water table is

receeding fast. Therefore, rainwater

harvesting and aquifer recharge would

be accorded priority for ensuring the

stability and sustainability of water

supply. Water quality also needs

attention, since it often gets polluted at

the source due to its over-exploitation

and the indiscriminate use of fertilizers,

pesticides and toxic chemicals.

4.3.3 Besides addressing the problems relating

to adequacy and quality, equity in water

distribution would be ensured. Water is a

public resource, and not a private

property. Therefore, priority would be

given to evolve mechanisms for just and

equitable access to water and to include

local people in managing water

resources. Women would be given a

significant role as water users, both in

access and management.

4.3.4 The following steps would be taken for

augmentation of water availability and

its efficient use:

(i) Rainwater harvesting and aquifer

recharge would be given priority

for ensuring the stability of supply.

Necessary legislative measures to

regulate and control the

development and management of

ground water would be taken up

simultaneously.

(ii) Existing wells and ponds would be

renovated.

(iii) Demand management through

improved irrigation practises,

including sprinkler and drip

irrigation, and through Pani

Panchayats or water users

associations would be accorded a

high priority.

(iv) A water literacy movement would

be launched and regulations would

be put in place for the sustainable

use of ground water.

(v) Integrated and coordinated

development of surface and

ground water resources and their

Page 10: 2007 - agricoop.nic.in · Contents 1 Need for Policy Re-Orientation 1 2 Recent Initiatives 2 3 Major Policy Goals 3 Definition of Farmer 4 4 Asset Reforms to Empower Farmers 4 Land

6

National Policy for Farmers

conjunctive use would be

envisaged right from the project

planning stage and would form an

integral part of project

implementation.

(vi) In water-scarce areas, the land-use

system would emphasise the

cultivation of crops of high value

and requiring less water such as

pulses and oilseeds.

4.3.5 Symbiotic interaction and convergence

of efforts would be made through

various initiatives of the central / state

governments such as the National

Rainfed Area Authority, the National

Horticulture Mission, the Technology

Missions on Oilseeds and Pulses and the

National Rural Employment Guarantee

Programme to promote water-use

efficiency and water conservation

measures.

4.3.6 For drought-prone areas, a Drought

Code would be introduced identifying

the action needed to minimise the

impact of adverse monsoons and to

maximise the benefits of a good

season. Similarly, in areas prone to

heavy rainfall, a Flood Code would be

introduced to mitigate distress, take

care of the needs of the farmers

immediately after floods and help

convert the flood-free seasons into

major agricultural production periods.

For the arid areas, a Good Weather

Code would be introduced for taking

advantage of occasional heavy rainfall

for strengthening the ecological

infrastructure essential for sustainable

livestock production, drinking water

security and sand dune stabilisation.

The National Rainfed Area Authority

would provide technical and other

support in this regard.

4.4 Livestock

4.4.1 Livestock, including poultry, is also one

of the important sources of livelihood,

contributing about one fourth of the

agricultural GDP. These activities

engage women in much larger

proportion. The ownership of livestock

is much more egalitarian since poor

farmer families mostly own cattle,

buffalo, sheep and goats. The major

constraints experienced by farmers relate

to breed, fodder, feed, healthcare and

remunerative prices for their produce.

There is a need to address these issues

through an appropriate strategy. Further,

to enhance the income of livestock

owners, agri-clinics operated by

veterinary and farm science graduates

would be encouraged to improve

productivity and overall efficiency of

livestock. At the same time, crop-

livestock mixed farming systems would

be promoted, apart from encouraging

production of organic manures and bio-

fertilizers. Livestock insurance would

also be revamped and made accessible to

all farmers.

4.4.2 For poultry farming, the following steps

would be taken:

(i) Quarantine and testing facilities

for imported birds and vaccines at

all ports of entry would be

established and strengthened, since

such safeguards are necessary for

the health and survival of the

poultry industry and for the

protection of life and livelihood.

(ii) Testing for safety and efficacy of

imported poultry vaccines before

they are allowed to be marketed,

as is done in the case of human

vaccines, would be made

compulsory.

7

National Policy for Farmers

(iii) Poultry rearing would be

recognised as an agricultural

activity and appropriate support

would be provided to backyard

poultry farmers to promote

clusters or small holders’ poultry

estates.

4.5 Fisheries

4.5.1 Both coastal and inland fisheries provide

employment and livelihood to millions

of families. There is considerable scope

for improving the income of fishermen

families on an environmentally

sustainable basis by encouraging

scientific fish rearing, harvesting and

processing. In the area of public policy,

there is a need for well-planned aquarian

reforms in order to provide landless

labour families access to village ponds

and other water bodies in the public

domain for aquaculture.

4.5.2 The NFDB has been established by the

Government of India to bring major

activities relating to fisheries and

aquaculture for focused attention and

professional management. The guiding

principles for the NFDB would be

ecology, economics, gender equity,

employment generation and advising the

state governments to facilitate rational

and equitable allocation of public water

bodies and reservoirs for practising

modern aquaculture.

4.5.3 Following steps will be taken to promote

modern aquaculture practices and value

addition:

(i) “Fish for All” training and capacity

building centres to impart training to

fisher families and fisher-women in

all aspects of the capture / culture /

consumption chain, quality literacy

for hygienic handling and other

aspects.

(ii) Provision of small dredgers for

ensuring the efficiency of fish-

landing centres.

(iii) Centralised services to support the

decentralised capture and culture

fisheries sectors.

(iv) Inland aquaculture, including the

culture of ornamental fish and air-

breathing fish, by providing

necessary space in ponds and

reservoirs.

(v) Artificial coral reefs to compensate

for the loss of natural coral reefs to

revive the fish catch.

(vi) Raising bio-shields comprising

Mangroves, Casuarina, Salicornia,

Aatriplex and other halophytic

plants, to safeguard the lives and

livelihoods of coastal fisher and

farm families in the event of

cyclonic storms and seawater

inundation during calamities like

tsunamis.

4.5.4 A dynamic policy for the management

and economic use of the Exclusive

Economic Zone (EEZ) for a variety of

economic activities, including fisheries,

will be evolved and put in place with the

assistance of NFDB.

4.6 Bio-resources

4.6.1 Bio-resources refer to the abundant

wealth of flora and fauna, including soil

micro flora and micro fauna, which, after

land and water, form the third important

natural resource available to farmers.

Efforts will be made to conserve as well

as enhance these resources and to ensure

their sustainable use with equitable

sharing of benefits. Two major

legislations—the Protection of Plant

Page 12: 2007 - agricoop.nic.in · Contents 1 Need for Policy Re-Orientation 1 2 Recent Initiatives 2 3 Major Policy Goals 3 Definition of Farmer 4 4 Asset Reforms to Empower Farmers 4 Land

8

National Policy for Farmers

Varieties and Farmers’ Rights (PPVFR)

Act, 2001 and the Biological Diversity

Act, 2002—are in place to achieve some

of the above aims. Implementation of

these Acts would be strengthened and

detailed guidelines would be developed

in such a manner as to recognise the

rights of farmers and the farming

community. The National Gene and

Biodiversity Fund would be used to

recognise and reward contributions of

farmers and to support revitalisation of

in situ farm conservation traditions of

such communities. A beginning has

already been made by the government in

establishing the Plant Genome Saviour

Community Recognition Award for

farmers.

4.6.2 For conservation and development of

bio-resources, the following would be

promoted:

(i) Documentation of traditional

knowledge through community

bio-diversity registers with the

involvement of women, who hold

much of this knowledge.

(ii) Support to tribal and rural people

for revitalising their in situ farm

conservation traditions.

(iii) Participatory breeding procedures

involving scientists and local

conservers for improving the

productivity of land races.

(iv) Genetic engineers working in

public institutions to perform the

role of pre-breeding i.e.,

development of novel genetic

combinations for important

biological and economic traits,

such as resistance to biotic and

abiotic stresses, in participatory

breeding programmes with

farmers, to integrate genetic

efficiency and genetic diversity in

an effective manner.

(v) Genetic homogeneity enhances

genetic vulnerability to pests and

diseases. Therefore, pre-breeding

and participatory breeding would

be integrated to help insulate small

farmers from the risks of pest and

disease epidemics.

(vi) Launch of literacy movement on

genetic and legal aspects, in areas

rich in agro-biodiversity such as

the North East, Western and

Eastern Ghats and the arid and

semi-arid zones.

(vii) Genome clubs will be encouraged

in rural schools and colleges for

imparting an understanding of the

importance of genetic resource

conservation.

(viii) Literacy and awareness to help

tribal and rural families understand

the provisions of the PPVFR Act

and the Biological Diversity Act

with reference to their entitlements.

(ix) Training of farm and tribal

families in methods of preventing

gene erosion.

(x) Conservation of coastal

biodiversity, including coral reefs

and sea grass beds and support to

traditional methods of conservation.

(xi) Organise and support herbal bio-

valleys in the Western Ghats,

Eastern Ghats, Vindhyas and

Himalayan region for the

conservation and sustainable use

of medicinal plants. In such bio-

valleys, farmers would be assisted

through venture capital and other

support to take to conservation,

selection and multiplication of

medicinal plants of value to health

security.

National Policy for Farmers

5 SUPPORT SERVICES

(xii) A nationwide programme will be

taken up for the ex situ and in situ

conservation of plant genetic

resources at the field / farmer

level. Farmer-level gene / seed

banks would be set up in areas

where traditional varieties are in

danger of extinction. Seed

exchange programmes undertaken

by some state governments, should

take due care to ensure that the

traditional rice gene pool is not

lost in this process.

(xiii) Participatory management of

national parks, bio-sphere reserves

and gene sanctuaries.

4.7 Animal Genetic Resources

4.7.1 A system of rewards and incentives will

be developed to enable and motivate

people to conserve their breeds under the

Biological Diversity Act. The

Biodiversity Fund would be used for

such purposes. Livestock keepers’

inherent rights to continue to use and

develop their own breeding stock and

breeding practises will be acknowledged

and encouraged. The government will

recognise these rights, acknowledge

livestock keepers’ contribution to the

national economy, and adapt its policies

and legal frameworks accordingly so as

to protect the same and to pre-empt

attempts to use the intellectual property

system to obtain control over animal

resources.

4.7.2 Apart from conserving genetic diversity

and acknowledging the vital role of

livestock keepers, there is a need to

document the indigenous knowledge of

pastoral communities about animal

maintenance and breeding. Community-

based conservation and development of

indigenous livestock breeds and species

will be encouraged, with a special focus

on both hot and cold arid and semi-arid

areas where genetic diversity and

associated indigenous knowledge are

particularly well developed. State farms

may be used to promote in situ

conservation of animal breeds. Grazing

lands must be earmarked to enable the

conservation of animal genetic resources.

Documentation of special biological and

economic traits would be done in the

context of the new biological and

nutritional needs or for other economic

traits like hide/leather quality. Creation of

disease-secure facilities for screening of

germ plasm and selection of disease

resistant varieties would be promoted.

4.7.3 Indian breeds of cattle and buffaloes are

in demand in other countries. Animal

science graduates, self-help groups

(SHGs) and progressive livestock farmers

would be encouraged and supported to

maintain pedigree animals of these breeds

for exploiting export opportunities.

However, export of all biological material

including animals would be in

accordance with the provisions of the

Biological Diversity Act.

5.1 Science and Technology

5.1.1 Science and technology are the key

drivers of change in farm operations

and output. New technologies which

can help enhance productivity per unit

of land and water are needed for

overcoming the prevailing technology

fatigue. Frontier technologies like bio-

technology, ICT, renewable energy

National Policy for Farmers

technologies, space applications and

nano-technology provide opportunities

for launching an “Evergreen

Revolution” capable of improving

productivity on a sustainable basis. In

order to ensure social inclusion in

access to new technologies, public

investment in socially relevant

agricultural research should be stepped

up under the umbrella of the National

Agricultural Research System (NARS)

comprising large numbers of Indian

Council of Agricultural Research

(ICAR) institutions, state agricultural

universities, all-India coordinated

research projects and national bureaus.

Non-governmental organisations

(NGO) and private sector research and

development (R&D) institutions would

also be included under the NARS

umbrella. NARS would be restructured

so as to effectively address the

problems faced by small and marginal

farmers.

5.1.2 The research strategy should be pro-

nature, pro-small farmer and gender

sensitive. Community-managed seed

villages and seed technology training

centres are needed, with women playing

the major role because of their

traditional knowledge of seeds and seed

management, especially in tribal

communities. Scientific literacy and

removal of doubts and fears about the

risks and benefits associated with bio-

technology and other new technologies,

can be achieved through farmers

selected in each panchayat and provided

with adequate training, so as to enable

them to serve as farm science managers

in their respective villages.

5.1.3 A National Bio-technology Regulatory

Authority would be set up for ensuring

the safe and responsible use of

recombinant DNA technology or genetic

engineering.

5.1.4 Need-based breeding of crop varieties

would be stepped up such as processing

quality fruits and vegetables.

5.1.5 High level multidisciplinary effort will

be made for enhancing scientific inputs

in organic farming that meet the needs of

farmers. Integrated crop – livestock -

fish production systems offer scope for

the adoption of the principles and

methods of organic farming.

5.1.6 In intensively cultivated mono-crop

areas, crop diversification may be

beneficial from the points of view of

ecology, economics and employment

generation. However, any advice on

crop diversification must be

accompanied by steps to ensure effective

market support for the alternative crops.

In planning for crop diversification,

particularly from food to non-food crops,

such as for the production of bio-fuels,

the food security of the nation would be

kept in view.

5.1.7 The intellectual property rights regime

will make provisions for compulsory

licensing of rights in the cases of

research products and processes of value

to farmers. In all cases of health and

food security, social inclusion will be the

guiding factor.

5.1.8 Conservation farming would be given

priority in the heartland of the Green

Revolution and turning the Indo-

Gangetic Plains into a major food

basket through an appropriate mix of

technology services and public

policies.

11

National Policy for Farmers

5.2 Agricultural Bio-security

5.2.1 Agricultural bio-security covering crops,

trees and farm and aquatic animals is of

great importance since it relates to both

the work and income security of a

majority of the population and the food

and trade security of the nation. An

integrated National Agricultural

Biosecurity System (NABS) covering

crops, animal husbandry, fisheries,

forestry and agriculturally relevant

micro-organisms will be established with

the following objectives:

(i) Safeguard the income and

livelihood security of farmer

families, as well as the food, health

and trade security of the nation,

through effective and integrated

surveillance, vigilance, prevention,

and control mechanisms designed to

protect the productivity and safety

of crops, farm animals, fishes and

forest trees.

(ii) Enhance national and local capacity

in initiating proactive measures in

monitoring, early warning,

education, research, control and

international cooperation.

(iii) Introduce an integrated bio-security

package comprising regulatory

measures, education, improved

sanitary and phyto-sanitary

measures and social mobilisation.

(iv) Organise an integrated national

agricultural biosecurity programme on

a hub-and-spoke model, with effective

home and regional quarantine facilities

capable of insulating the major agro-

ecological and farming system zones

of the country from invasive alien

species of pests, pathogens and weeds

as well as from the introduction and

release of Genetically Modified

Organisms (GMOs).

5.3 Agro-meteorology

5.3.1 The nation has considerable capacity in

short, medium and long range weather

forecasting. Generic information about

weather has to be translated into

location- specific land-use advice, based

on cropping patterns and water

availability. The agro-meteorological

advisories issued from time to time,

would be used by Panchayat-level

functionaries, trained to give appropriate

land-use suggestions to farmers with the

least possible time lag. For marine

fisheries, data on wave heights and

location of fish shoals available would

be transmitted to the fishermen.

Frontline technologies such as internet-

FM/HAM radio/cellphone services

would be very helpful to fishermen in

this regard.

5.4 Climate Change

5.4.1 Climate change leading to adverse

changes in temperature, precipitation

and sea level is an emerging issue. Most

experts agree that the impact of global

warming has been in a worrisome

measure, as evident from the melting of

glaciers and Antarctic and Arctic ice

caps. Coastal storms and cyclones are

also increasing in frequency and

intensity. Consequent to these changes,

droughts and floods are likely to be more

frequent. Although climate change is a

product of unsustainable consumption of

non-renewable forms of energy, the

harmful impact of climate change will be

felt more by those nations with limited

resources and coping capacity.

Proactive measures to reduce the

vulnerability to climate change will be

taken. Based on simulation models,

contingency plans and alternative land-

Page 16: 2007 - agricoop.nic.in · Contents 1 Need for Policy Re-Orientation 1 2 Recent Initiatives 2 3 Major Policy Goals 3 Definition of Farmer 4 4 Asset Reforms to Empower Farmers 4 Land

12

National Policy for Farmers

use and water-use strategies will be

developed for each major agro-climatic

zone. In drought and flood-prone areas,

experienced farmers would be trained as

“Climate Managers” in the art of

managing drought, flood and aberrant

monsoons.

5.5 Inputs and Services

(i) Seeds: Good quality seeds and

disease-free planting material,

including in-vitro cultured

propagules, are essential for crop

productivity and security. Hybrids

are now becoming available for

many crops. In the case of new

varieties, foundation seeds would

be provided to grass root level

seed growers and their groups such

as cooperative societies and SHGs.

Mutually beneficial farmer-seed

company partnerships will be

encouraged. Agricultural

universities would be encouraged

to organise courses on seed

technology and business, and

mainstream business principles in

all applied courses. A national

seed grid will be established to

ensure supply of seeds across the

country, as per the area specific

requirement.

(ii) Soil Health: Soil health

enhancement holds the key to

raising farm productivity. Steps

would be taken to ensure that each

farmer is issued with a soil health

passbook containing integrated

information on the physics,

chemistry and microbiology of

farm soils with corresponding

advisories. More laboratories to

detect specific micronutrient

deficiencies in soils will be

established for this purpose. Soil

organic matter would be increased

by incorporating crop residues in

the soil. Proper technical advice on

the reclamation of wastelands and

on improving their biological

potential will be made available.

Fertilizer pricing policies will be

reviewed to promote balanced use

of fertilizers. Agro-forestry will be

encouraged for efficient nutrient

cycling, nitrogen fixation, organic

matter addition and for improving

drainage. Appropriate production

and marketing mechanisms for

bio-fertilizers, organic manures

etc. will be put in place to promote

their use for improving/

maintaining soil health.

(iii) Pesticides: The triple alliance of

pests, pathogens and weeds is the

cause of substantial crop losses

every year. The development,

introduction and diffusion of

environmentally safe and effective

pesticides will be given priority.

There is a need for incorporating

the use of chemical pesticides in

an Integrated Pest Management

(IPM) system. Suitable quality

control, safety evaluation and

other regulatory systems would be

strengthened. The sale of spurious

and substandard pesticides would

be prevented and bio-pesticides

would be promoted.

(iv) Implements: Farmers need region

and crop specific machines and

implements for timely sowing,

management of weeds and

improving their post-harvest

operations. Women especially

need woman-friendly implements /

tools which can reduce drudgery,

save time, enhance output and can

Page 17: 2007 - agricoop.nic.in · Contents 1 Need for Policy Re-Orientation 1 2 Recent Initiatives 2 3 Major Policy Goals 3 Definition of Farmer 4 4 Asset Reforms to Empower Farmers 4 Land

13

National Policy for Farmers

be handled comfortably. Agri -

entrepreneurs including farm

graduates and progressive farmers

would be encouraged to provide

implements and tools, machinery,

tractors and other farm implements

on a custom-hire basis.

(v) Vaccines and Sero-diagnostics: Major gaps in the presently

available facilities would be filled

in the case of important animal

diseases. Bio-technology research

in the area of vaccine development

would be stepped up, encouraging

public private partnerships.

(vi) Fish Seed and Feed: Good quality

and disease-free fish seed holds

the key to successful inland

aquaculture. Progressive fishermen

and their groups such as SHGs

would be trained in induced fish

seed breeding, production and

availability of seed and fish seed

feed at affordable prices, with

appropriate technical assistance

from the NFDB and other

agencies.

(vii) Animal Feed: Inadequate

nutrition is the primary cause of

low milk yield in dairy animals.

Both conventional and non-

conventional approaches for

conversion of cellulosic wastes

into good animal feed through

appropriate treatment and

enrichment, planting of nutrition

rich fodder plants and

dissemination of technologies

would be encouraged.

(viii) Other essential support services: These include establishing genetic

evaluation systems for indigenous

breeds as well as crosses, so that

selection can lead to genetic

improvement of production

characteristics; upgrading of breed

through artificial insemination;

cross- breeding suited to the

farmers’ resources; and improved

processing and marketing. The

livestock sector has to become

sanitary and phyto-sanitary

compliant. A cadre of para-

veterinarians would be trained to

set up support service centres for

the farmers, to promote early

detection and treatment of diseases

and other veterinary services.

(ix) Support Services for Women

Empowerment: For capacity

building and livelihood, women

working in the farms need

appropriate support services like

crèches, child care centres,

nutrition, health and training, etc.

For funding such activities,

existing schemes of the Ministry

of Panchayati Raj, the Ministry of

Rural Development and the

Ministry of Agriculture would be

augmented and utilised and new

schemes would be introduced, if

required.

5.6 Credit and Insurance

5.6.1 Improvement in the outreach and

efficiency of the rural banking system

is the need of the hour. Towards this

end, the financial services would be

galvanised for timely, adequate and

easy reach to the farmers at reasonable

interest rates. The banking system

would endeavour to meet the large

credit potential needed to raise

agriculture to higher thresholds and

for the growth of rural and agri-

business enterprises and employment,

and would take steps to achieve

financial inclusion.

Page 18: 2007 - agricoop.nic.in · Contents 1 Need for Policy Re-Orientation 1 2 Recent Initiatives 2 3 Major Policy Goals 3 Definition of Farmer 4 4 Asset Reforms to Empower Farmers 4 Land

14

National Policy for Farmers

5.6.2 The Government of India has already put

in place an agriculture credit policy to

improve access of farmers to institutional

credit. Steps would be taken for extensive

coverage of farmers under the Kisan

Credit Card Scheme. Micro credit and

micro insurance will be promoted as an

effective tool for encouraging production

and reducing risk. Credit cooperatives

have an important position and role in the

rural financial system and priority would

be given to reforms and revamping of

cooperative credit institutions as per the

recommendations of the Vaidyanathan

Committee. Credit counselling centres

would be established where severely

indebted farmers can be provided a debt

rescue package/ rescheduling to save

them from a debt trap. National Bank for

Agriculture and Rural Development

(NABARD), as the leader of agriculture

and rural credit, should facilitate

convergence between credit availability

and credit absorptive capacity of the

farmers and other rural borrowers and an

efficient credit delivery system.

NABARD should actively involve itself

in institution building and provide backup

support through research and

development initiatives. NABARD

should function like a national bank for

farmers.

5.6.3 Since agriculture is a high-risk economic

activity, farmers need user-friendly

insurance instruments covering

production, right from sowing to post-

harvest operations. The insurance should

also cover the market risks for all crops,

in order to insulate the farmers from

financial distress and in the process

make agriculture financially viable.

Steps would be taken to revamp the

National Agricultural Insurance Scheme

to make it more farmer friendly.

5.6.4 There is also a need for credit and

insurance literacy in villages. Gyan

Chaupals (village knowledge centres)

can help in this task. Awareness on

credit and insurance issues among

farmers would be promoted.

5.6.5 Women need special attention in credit

access because of their lack of land

title/collateral. Kisan credit cards would

be issued to women speedily with joint

pattas for homestead / agricultural land.

For the cases without joint pattas,

indemnity bonds / guarantees from

husband, and relatives would be

considered by the banks for extending

credit and kisan credit cards to the

women farmers.

5.7 Cooperatives

5.7.1 Cooperatives have an important role to

play in banking, input supply, marketing,

agro-processing and other agri-

businesses to protect farmers from the

vagaries of existing imperfections in the

supply of inputs, production, value

addition and marketing. Cooperatives

should function as economic enterprises

and not as an extended arm of the state.

They require an entrepreneurial

approach, competitive edge through

suitable enterprise focus and strategic

alliances with private and public sector

units. Appropriate mechanisms would be

put in place so that farmers have greater

control of the market channels and

improve profit opportunities through

cooperatives and SHGs.

5.7.2 With economic liberalisation and market

competitiveness, cooperatives would

require much larger capital and other

financial resources. Changes in the legal

framework and regulatory system would

Page 19: 2007 - agricoop.nic.in · Contents 1 Need for Policy Re-Orientation 1 2 Recent Initiatives 2 3 Major Policy Goals 3 Definition of Farmer 4 4 Asset Reforms to Empower Farmers 4 Land

15

National Policy for Farmers

help gain greater access to

capital/financial resources. The policy

and legal framework under which

cooperatives are functioning would be

reviewed so as to create an enabling

environment for them to attain autonomy

and run their operations in a business -

like manner, subject to provisions of

law. The management of the

cooperatives needs to be made

professionally competent, with clear

demarcation of functions of the elected

members and the managers. The audit

and accounting systems would be

improved and made transparent so as to

give greater confidence to all the

members of cooperatives.

5.8 Extension, Training and Knowledge

Connectivity

5.8.1 The gap between scientific know-how

and field level do-how has been

widening in the recent years. This

knowledge deficit would be overcome

speedily to enhance farm productivity

and profitability. Krishi Vigyan

Kendras (KVKs) would take up

training and lab-to-land demonstrations

in the area of post-harvest technology,

agro-processing and value addition to

primary products to provide skilled

jobs in villages. State governments

would be supported for strengthening

the extension machinery through

retraining and retooling of existing

extension personnel and for promoting

farmer to farmer learning by setting up

farm schools in the fields of

outstanding / progressive farmers. The

farm schools with linkages to KVKs

can speed up the process of

technological upgradation of crop and

animal husbandry, fisheries and agro-

forestry. Efforts will be made to bring

farmers, processors, retailers and other

stakeholders together to support

modern agricultural practices.

Convergence of extension efforts

especially at the district level and

below would be ensured.

5.8.2 The potential of ICT would be

harnessed by establishing Gyan

Chaupals in villages. Further, the

common service centres of the

Department of Information Technology,

Government of India and those set up

by the state governments and private

initiative programmes will be evolved

for inclusive and broad-based

development. Thus, the structure of the

ICT-based knowledge system would,

inter alia, include setting up of such

village centres. Last-mile and last-

person connectivity would be facilitated

with the help of technologies such as

broadband internet, community radio,

or internet-mobile phone synergies.

5.8.3 Empowering farmers with the right

information at the right time and place is

essential for improving the efficiency

and viability of small and marginal

holdings. Mass media, particularly the

radio, television and local language

newspapers, will be used to play an

important role in this regard.

5.9 Social Security

Coverage of farmers, particularly small

and marginal farmers and landless

agricultural workers, under a

comprehensive national social security

scheme is essential for ensuring

livelihood security. The government

would, therefore, take necessary steps to

put in place an appropriate social

security scheme.

16

National Policy for Farmers

5.10 Agricultural Prices, Marketing and

Trade

5.10.1 Assured and remunerative marketing

opportunities hold the key to continued

progress in enhancing farm productivity

and profitability. Several significant

market reforms have already been

initiated by the Central and the State

governments. These reforms provide

more options to farmers for selling their

produce, allowing the private sector,

including cooperatives, to develop

markets, promote direct sales to

consumers, processors and retail chain

suppliers / exporters and remove scope

for corruption and harassment. The

following steps would be taken:

(i) The Minimum Support Price

(MSP) mechanism would be

implemented effectively across the

country.

(ii) The Market Intervention Scheme

(MIS) would be strengthened to

respond speedily to exigencies

especially in the case of sensitive

crops in the rainfed areas.

(iii) The establishment of community

foodgrains banks would be

promoted to help in the marketing

of underutilised crops and thereby

generate an economic stake in the

conservation of agro-biodiversity.

(iv) The food security basket will be

enlarged by storing and selling

nutritious millets such as bajra,

jowar and ragi and other crops

through the network of the Public

Distribution Systems (PDS).

(v) Efforts will be made to develop a

single national market by relaxing

internal restrictions. All controls

and regulations hindering increase

in farmers’ income will be

reviewed and abolished.

(vi) Terminal markets for agriculture

would be developed in public-

private partnership mode to

provide better market access to

farmers with better price

realisation in a transparent trading

environment with suitable

backward linkages to give

technical backstopping services

needed for quality and demand

driven production.

(vii) The role of the Agriculture

Produce Market Committees and

State Agriculture Marketing

Boards would be transformed from

mere regulatory focus to

promotion of grading, branding,

packaging and development of

markets for local produce.

5.10.2 Farmers require authentic advice based

on meteorological, marketing and

management information for land-use

decisions and investments. Infrastructure

support would be put in place to

minimise post-harvest losses and enable

agro-processing and value-addition at

the village level itself to increase

employment and income. Farmers’

organisations and other entities like

cooperatives and small farmers’ estates

would be encouraged so that farmers can

get a fair deal and enjoy the economies

of scale. Producer groups and

cooperatives will be encouraged to

promote agro-processing industry.

Constraints would be removed for

improving the negotiability of

warehouse receipts.

5.10.3 The trade policies in agriculture would

aim at protecting the livelihood of

farmer families and fostering their

economic well-being. Effective

livelihood security for farmers would be

put in place. Quality and trade literacy

Page 21: 2007 - agricoop.nic.in · Contents 1 Need for Policy Re-Orientation 1 2 Recent Initiatives 2 3 Major Policy Goals 3 Definition of Farmer 4 4 Asset Reforms to Empower Farmers 4 Land

17

National Policy for Farmers

programmes would be launched across

the country. Appropriate measures would

be introduced to mitigate price risks and

enable the stakeholders, particularly the

farmers, to hedge their risk.

5.10.4 Farmers’ associations and SHGs would

be supported to export on competitive

terms by spreading awareness of the

opportunities available for external

agricultural trade and for value addition.

The agri-export zones would be further

strengthened to become places where

farmers will get the best possible price

for their produce.

5.10.5 The twin goals of ensuring justice to

farmers in terms of a remunerative price

for their produce and to consumers in

terms of a fair and affordable price for

staples (as farmers are also consumers)

would be achieved through the following

integrated strategy:

(i) The government, while taking

decisions on MSP, would ensure that

the farmers’ interests in receiving

remunerative prices for their produce

are adequately safeguarded.

(ii) Stable and efficient market

environment, including effective

implementation of MSP in rainfed

areas, would add to the

improvement in productivity and

income in dry land farming.

5.10.6 The terms of reference and status of the

Commission for Agricultural Costs and

Prices (CACP) would be reviewed to

make the MSP regime more effective.

5.11 Integration with Processing and Value

Chain

5.11.1 It is well recognised that value addition

to agricultural produce increases income

levels of the farmers. Therefore, it is

necessary to integrate their production

with processing and other value chain

activities. However, the post-harvest

infrastructure in the country is grossly

inadequate, resulting in huge

inefficiencies and wastages. The

percentage of post harvest losses at

various stages of storage, grading,

packing and marketing due to improper

handling and transportation, vary

greatly, depending on the nature of crop

and climatic conditions. The food

processing industry has the potential to

provide long-term economic

sustainability to the farmers by adding

value to their produce, improving post-

harvest management linking the farmers

to the market and promoting demand-

driven farming. Further, the food

processing activities also need

modernisation. Hence, effective steps

would be taken to facilitate and stimulate

this process, modernise the food

processing sector and enhance its

competitiveness.

5.12 Curriculum Reform

5.12.1 Agricultural / Animal Sciences

Universities: The motto of these

universities would be to groom “every

scholar/student as an entrepreneur”. This

will call for integrating business

management principles with major

applied courses. The agriculture/farm

universities would also restructure their

curricula in a manner that the gender

roles in farming are recognised and they

are equally empowered technologically.

There is a need to restructure the

curricula to focus on nutrition, post-

harvest technology, quality and safety

standards. The farm universities would

be reoriented to give emphasis on

Page 22: 2007 - agricoop.nic.in · Contents 1 Need for Policy Re-Orientation 1 2 Recent Initiatives 2 3 Major Policy Goals 3 Definition of Farmer 4 4 Asset Reforms to Empower Farmers 4 Land

18

National Policy for Farmers

6 SPECIAL CATEGORIES OF FARMERS

entrepreneurship and capacity building

on quality including sanitary and phyto-

sanitary measures and Codex

Alimentarius standards of food safety.

5.12.2 The mandate of the ICAR would be

expanded to provide for registration and

accreditation to the farm graduates as

registered farm practitioners to provide

quality service to the farmers. Centres of

excellence in agriculture (crop, animal

husbandry, fishery and forestry)

modelled after the Indian Institutes of

Technology (IITs) and Indian Institutes

of Management (IIMs) would be

developed to enhance the

competitiveness of the graduates. Taking

into account the new opportunities

opened up by ICT, pedagogic

methodology for promoting a learning

revolution among students would be

adopted. University centres would also

establish employment and business

advisory services and promotion centres

and special one-stop windows for

generating awareness of self-

employment opportunities.

6.1 Tribal Farmers

Tribal farmers are among the most

disadvantaged category of farmers. A

majority of tribal communities across the

country are dependent on forests and

animal husbandry for their livelihoods.

These include cultivation (shifting

cultivation in many cases), collection of

fuel, fodder and a range of non-timber

forest produce. Uplifting of their

economic conditions would be a priority

for the government. For this purpose, the

following actions would be initiated:

(i) Updating land records in areas

inhabited by tribal farmers.

(ii) Strengthening the institutional structure

to enable a more participatory process

in decision making.

(iii) Easy access to institutional credit to

all tribal farmers and adequate

provision of kisan credit cards for

them.

(iv) Documentation of the traditional

crops and knowledge of the tribal

farmers and creating an economic

stake in conservation of such crops.

(v) Provision of appropriate technology

and extension services and relaxed

criteria for providing inputs such as

water, fertilizers, seeds, etc. for

tribal areas.

6.2 Pastoralists

The following steps would be initiated to

ensure better livelihood opportunities for

pastoralists:

(i) Restoration of traditional grazing

rights and camping rights in respect

of forest areas and in those areas

earmarked for grazing purpose in

village common lands.

(ii) Formalising entitlements (including

issue of permanent grazing cards)

for traditional pastoralists/herders

maintaining native animal breeds to

enable free access to notified or

demarcated grazing sites and

migration routes.

(iii) Grazing land and drinking water

sources for livestock will be

conserved and expanded to the

extent feasible.

19

National Policy for Farmers

7 SPECIAL CATEGORIES OF FARMING

(iv) In-depth documentation and

characterisation of indigenous

livestock breeds and preservation

thereof would be carried out to

recognise and protect the

intellectual property rights of the

local communities / individuals

conserving these livestock breeds.

(v) Pastoralists would be involved in all

local natural resource management

programmes, including village

forest committees and joint forest

management.

6.3 Other Categories

6.3.1 Besides the above two groups, there are

several small groups with distinct and

special needs such as small plantation

farmers, island farmers, urban farmers

and organic farmers.

6.3.2 Plantation Farmers

A large number of small farmers are

engaged in the cultivation of plantation

crops like tea, coffee, rubber, cardamom,

pepper and vanilla. Price fluctuation and

competition from products imported

from abroad are among the major

problems facing them. Therefore, the

Price Stabilisation Fund for plantation

crops will help them to be insulated from

the vagaries of the market.

6.3.3 Island Farmers

The farming and fisher families in the

Andaman and Nicobar Islands,

Lakshadweep group of islands and other

islands need special attention including

technology, training, techno-

infrastructure and trade. Island

agriculture also has the problem of

transport costs, particularly for

perishable commodities like fish which

may have to be sold in the mainland.

The ancient tribes of the Andaman and

Nicobar Islands have rich traditional

knowledge and wisdom. Steps would be

taken to recognise and reward their

indigenous knowledge in the areas of

biodiversity conservation and traditional

healthcare. Horticulture development

programmes would be taken up in

islands wherever feasible. The creation

of mangrove and non-mangrove based

bioshields would be initiated to

safeguard the lives and livelihoods of

island populations in the event of the rise

of sea levels due to global warming and

calamities like tsunamis.

6.3.4 Urban Farmers

In urban areas, home gardens and

nurseries would be encouraged.

Nutrition gardens would be supported to

supplement the nutritional requirement.

7.1 Organic Farming

The organic farming movement in

India suffers from a lack of adequate

institutional support in the areas of

research, extension, certification and

marketing and it requires more

scientific support than chemical

farming. KVKs would be equipped

to provide training in organic

agriculture. Internationally accepted

certification procedures would be

strengthened to make them farmer-

friendly and affordable. Organic

Page 24: 2007 - agricoop.nic.in · Contents 1 Need for Policy Re-Orientation 1 2 Recent Initiatives 2 3 Major Policy Goals 3 Definition of Farmer 4 4 Asset Reforms to Empower Farmers 4 Land

20

National Policy for Farmers

farming zones would be identified,

like the hill areas, islands where

chemical fertilizer use is low, and for

medicinal plants where the use of

chemical pesticides and fertilizers is

not advisable. Organic farming would

also be encouraged in selected

rainfed areas backed up by required

supports, including marketing. It

would also be supported through

contract farming. Food safety and

quality specifications should conform

to the Codex Alimentarius standards

since there are occasional reports of

heavy metals being present in organic

foods. Farmers engaged in organic

farming should be linked to niche

markets where they will obtain a

premium price. Progressive farmers

and farm graduates would be

supported for establishing agri-clinics

and agri-business centres for organic

farming. Bio-fertilizers, organic

manures and bio-pesticides would be

treated at par with the chemical

fertilizers for support and promotion.

7.2 Green Agriculture

Green agriculture involving integrated

pest management, integrated nutrient

supply and integrated natural

resources management is recognised

as the pathway to an “Evergreen

Revolution”. Unlike organic farming,

green agriculture permits the safe and

minimal use of mineral fertilizers and

chemical pesticides, as well as crop

varieties developed by genetic

modification. Green agriculture

products would be encouraged with

distinct labelling and certification as

in the case of organic farming.

7.3 Genetically Modified (GM) Crops

There is a need to assess the risks and

benefits associated with GM crops in a

credible and transparent manner.

Priority would be given for genetic

modification to incorporate genes which

can help impart resistance to drought,

salinity and other stresses. Water-use

efficiency as well as improvement of

both nutritive and processing quality

would also be accorded priority in the

research agenda. Training and awareness

in agronomic management procedures in

respect of GM crop varieties would be

introduced.

7.4 Protected (Greenhouse) Agriculture

With the rapid growth of

horticulture, there is an opportunity

for greenhouse cultivation of

vegetables, fruits and flowers

supported by economic methods of

water and fertilizer use such as

fertigation (the application of

nutrients through irrigation systems).

Support would be given to farm and

home science graduates and other

entrepreneurs to undertake green

house horticulture under the agri-

business programme and horticulture

development programmes. Low-cost

green houses, along with micro-

irrigation and fertigation techniques,

would be popularised in areas where

evaporation exceeds precipitation

during several months in a year.

Suitable support would be given for

such technologies that would

increase income in water deficit

areas.

National Policy for Farmers

9 FARMERS OF THE FUTURE

8.1 Distress Hotspots

Several steps have been taken by the

government to mitigate agrarian distress

experienced in some parts of the

country. It is important that special

attention is paid to such areas to reduce

risk and promote inputs for sustainable

agricultural practices. In such areas,

knowledge connectivity, social support

systems and marketing infrastructure

will be strengthened. Convergence of the

benefits under different schemes would

also be encouraged.

8.2 Mega Bio-diversity Areas

Local communities would be involved in

the conservation of mega bio-diversity

areas such as Western and Eastern

Ghats, eastern Himalayan region, other

North East and tribal areas. These

communities would be given an

incentive and their contributions would

be appropriately recognised. Steps

would also be taken to enable local

communities in mega bio-diversity areas

to convert bio-resources into economic

wealth in a sustainable manner.

9.1 The slow growth of opportunities in the

non-farm employment sector has led to

the proliferation of tiny and

economically non-viable holdings.

Increase in small farm productivity and

creating multiple livelihood

opportunities through crop-livestock

integrated farming systems as well as

agro-processing would be supported for

increasing farmers’ incomes. Methods

of achieving economies of scale by small

and marginal farmers through the

farming groups would be popularised to

enhance yield and income. Women

would be encouraged to participate in

such group activities. The following are

some of the methods which may benefit

the small and marginal farmers for

gaining efficiency and economies of

scale in their farming operations.

(i) Cooperative Farming and Service

Cooperatives: These have been

successful in the case of the dairy

industry. Marketing cooperatives

are successful since members

cooperate on the basis of

enlightened self-interest. Other

forms of service cooperatives are

slowly emerging, but the pace needs

to be accelerated. Small farmers’

cooperatives would, therefore, be

encouraged and supported to take up

activities such as processing, value

addition and marketing of agro

products.

(ii) Group Farming by SHGs: SHGs

for supporting micro-enterprises

operated by women with the help of

micro credit have been highly

successful. With the growing

diminution in the size of operational

holdings, it will be useful to

promote SHGs and commodity-

based farmers’ organisations at the

production end of the farming

enterprise by encouraging groups

for consolidating farming activities.

This will be particularly helpful in

the case of “Green Agriculture”

involving integrated pest

management, integrated nutrient

supply, scientific water management

22

National Policy for Farmers

10 ATTRACTING YOUTH

and improved post-harvest

technology. SHGs would also be

promoted for improving access to

credit.

(iii) Small Holders’ Estates: The

formation of small holders’ estates,

for example, in cotton, horticulture,

medicinal plants, poultry and

aquaculture will help promote group

cooperation among farmers living in

a village or watershed, or the

command areas of irrigation

projects. Improving productivity,

reducing the cost of production and

entering into marketing contracts

with textile mills, food processing

industries, pharmaceutical

companies, and fish marketing

agencies will be some of the

advantages. Such small holders’

estates can also manufacture

products under brand names and

enhance income security so that

group insurance becomes feasible.

Agri-clinics and agri-business

centres would be linked to such

estates.

(iv) Contract Farming: Symbiotic

contracts which confer benefits to

both producers and purchasers

would be encouraged for ensuring

assured and remunerative marketing

opportunities to the farmers.

Contract cultivation based on a

well-defined code of conduct will be

helpful to small producers in getting

good quality inputs, fair prices and

prompt payment for their produce.

A code of conduct for contract

farming or a model contract will be

developed to meet the commodity-

specific requirements. Farmers will

not be alienated from their land

under any circumstances under

contract farming. State governments

may set up a monitoring committee

involving farmers to encourage a

farmer-friendly contract farming

system.

(v) Farmers’ Companies: Private

limited companies, registered under

the Companies (Amendment) Act,

2002, are now coming into

existence in the area of seed

production, the production of bio-

fertilizers, bio-pesticides and other

forms of biological software

essential for sustainable agriculture.

Small farmers and the SHGs would

be associated in such companies as

stakeholders and not just as

shareholders.

(vi) State Farms: State farms inter alia,

would also be used for developing

Living Heritage Gene Banks of the

germ plasm of local crops and

breeds of cattle, sheep and poultry

in order to preserve the plant and

animal genetic wealth.

Educated youths would be helped and

supported for setting up agri-clinics and

production-cum-processing centres to

undertake outsourcing jobs both from

within and outside the country. In order

to attract youths to the agriculture sector,

a number of vocational training courses

in different aspects of agricultural and

allied activities including value addition

and processing of agro-products shall be

introduced and recognised. The KVKs,

institutions of state governments/ICAR

and competent private institutions may

also provide such recognised vocational

National Policy for Farmers

11 OTHER POLICY MEASURES

training to the youth. Trained persons

would be supported through various

schemes to launch self-employment

ventures for value addition to improve

productivity and income of the farmers.

11.1 The following policy measures will also

ensure well-being and livelihood

security of the farmers:

(i) Existing state land use boards

would be revamped and linked to

district-level land-use committees

to be constituted by the state

government so that they can

provide quality and proactive

advice to farmers on land use.

These are expected to emerge as

virtual organisations with the

capacity to link land-use decisions

with ecological, meteorological

and marketing factors on a

location and season-specific basis.

(ii) Major thrust would be given to the

development of floriculture, roots

and tuber crops, aromatic and

medicinal plants, bee-keeping and

sericulture. Appropriate market

linkages would also be provided so

that such efforts would improve

employment and income

opportunities in rural areas.

(iii) Market Intervention Scheme

would continue and would be

strengthened. Suitable measures

would be taken for expeditious

processing and sanctions.

(iv) A well-defined food security policy

with homegrown foodgrains is

important for eradicating rural

poverty and malnutrition. In order

to strengthen and regularly monitor

food security issues, the government

would constitute a Cabinet

Committee on Food Security.

(v) Farm families would also be

protected from becoming victims

of HIV/AIDS and tuberculosis

(TB). Anti-retroviral drugs would

be made available in villages free

of cost. The approach to the

treatment of farmers who are

victims of serious diseases like

HIV/AIDS and TB in villages

would take into account access of

the patient to food and nutrition to

assist recovery and restoration of

productive life.

(vi) There is a need for a rural non-

farm employment initiative for

farm households. The initiative

would bring all rural non-farm

employment programmes together

in order to generate convergence

and synergy among them. A

consortium approach involving the

different agencies concerned

would be adopted.

(vii) Along with production growth

rates, income growth rates would

also be measured and published.

Improving income and livelihood

of farmers would be incorporated

as a primary objective of all

schemes implemented in the

agriculture sector.

(viii) Article 243 G of the Constitution

(73rd

Amendment) Act, 1982,

entrusts panchayats with the

responsibility for agriculture

including agricultural extension. If

the problems faced by farmers are

disaggregated and dealt with by

National Policy for Farmers

12 OPERATIONALISATION OF THE POLICY

the gram sabhas and panchayats,

location-specific problems can be

attended to speedily and

effectively. In order to implement

various schemes and programmes

at the grass roots level, the

Government of India would

support state governments for

devolution of functions and

functionaries for empowering the

panchayats. Steps would be taken

to strengthen and accord centrality

to panchayats in addressing the

problems of farmers.

(ix) Mass media (conventional,

electronic and the internet)

constitute an important pillar of

our democratic system of

governance. In order to assist the

mass media with timely and

scientifically accurate information

on issues relating to agriculture,

food security and farmers welfare,

regional media resource centres

would be set up, associating

farmers, media representatives and

scientists, including extension

personnel.

(x) There is a need for integrated

approach for rural energy where

renewable energy systems /

devices, biofuels would be

promoted apart from improving

the rural infrastructure, including

rural electrification, which is

essential for agricultural

development.

12.1 The National Policy for Farmers will be

adapted and operationalised to suit the

local needs in different states and union

territories. State governments would be

supported to convert national goals into

local action points by preparing

operational plans for implementing this

policy, taking into account the agro-

climatic and other local conditions. Such

operational plans will be prepared at the

district level by a multi-disciplinary

professional group and integrated at the

state level. States would be encouraged

to have an effective mechanism for

continuous feedback from the farmers to

ensure that measures taken under the

policy address the problems of the

farmers.

12.2 The Department of Agriculture and

Cooperation would constitute an Inter-

Ministerial Committee to suggest a plan

of action for operationalisation of this

policy. Appropriate mechanisms and

guidelines would be evolved by

concerned Ministries / Departments to

implement this policy.

12.3 The Agriculture Coordination

Committee under the chairmanship of

the Prime Minister would oversee and

coordinate the integrated implementation

of this policy.
