Annexure 7
Neeranchal
• Next step to IWMP
– Integrated management of watershed and link it with the market need
– Restricted not just to management of resources
– Create a value from the various watershed interventions
• Through enhanced productivity
• Link the productivity to market requirements

Neeranchal
• Priority Areas
– Improve existing watershed management approaches
– Improve agricultural performance
– Strengthen forward linkages for farmers
– Improve hydrological outcomes in watersheds

Strengthening forward linkages for farmers
• Why strengthening?
– Small-medium land holdings
– Rare access to sufficient funds
– Wide disparity between input costs and productivity gain
– Optimal utilisation of available resources
– Integrated Management
– Create a value chain from farm to market

Establish an agricultural value chain
• Innovative financial products and services
• Combination of financial services
– Formal
– Non-formal (Micro-finance)
• Building vertical linkages
• Strengthen non-financial services
– Business planning
– Market Development
