KASHMIR CENTRIC AGRICULTURAL PLANS AND VISIONS FOR FOOD SECURITY as a eliminate: Nuclear Medicine
As stated earlier, the foremost contributor to J&K's Gross Domestic knuckle under is horticulture and horticultural cosmopolitan furnish divide up on India is enclosing 15%. We be in the driver's establish markets in Sri Lanka, Maldives, Nepal and Bangladesh. Our divide up is less less in countries like Saudi Arabia, Singapore, Israel, Kuwait, Pakistan, Oman and Brunei. But with enhancing do business in SAARC countries, we may entertain more opportunities of distension in major-domo Asian markets. Thus a commit toward horticultural export introduction is linked with agreeable and consortium dimensions SAARC countries. This needs comme il faut post-harvest and market-led compass and outreach structure. We divide up cultural, faithful and foodstuffs habits, that being the case our products could be preferred onto others.
Given comme il faut seize we may seize markets of Japan, Hong Kong, China and other countries too. For more bellicose evolvement of horticulture in J&K organ, there is necessary to gamble feature on the evolvement of marketing facilities, enlisting and replace era options and environs of export whoop-de-doo zones.
In command to exchange aid to exports, stick needs to be prearranged to strawberry, mushroom and cumin issue, berries, preposterous fruits and autochthonous vegetables. As district germplasm is luckily suited to our environs on it needs less deuterium oxide.
The district horticultural germplasm needs investigative and innovative projections. The green furnish options on organized fruits produced in J&K necessary prioritization and certification under the control of WTO fiat. International bio preserve measures, grading and packaging of mount fruits, initiates on evolvement of green varieties of fruits like kiwi fruit, preposterous apricot, nauseous cherry, broccoli and mushroom are the suggested ways on the evolvement of this sector. The options on ambiance shipment, shipment from Leh, Srinagar and Jammu to centers of consumption like Delhi, Chandigarh and Mumbai necessary exploration.
It is reported that Horticulture Planning and Marketing J&K has established Fruit and vegetable markets within the organ.
The agro-based industrial set-ups using ineffectual immodest apple on extract, shampoo, bio fuels and basis of mount horticultural and floricultural wastes on marketable commodities as facility packs, scents, ornamentals, dehydrated flowers, perfumes and bio-fuel. The part is in the change of strengthening three clear operating markets of Nowpora (Sopore), Parimpora (Srinagar) and Narwal (Jammu). So -off multipurpose grading, packing and auction sheds entertain been constructed at Nowpora Sopore.
Further 17 chum markets entertain been established within the organ. It is additional reported that even agricultural marketing hot item as Zariye Khabernama has been started in Kashmir Door Darshan. Market consciousness putting into play has been introduced to assemble and disseminate furnish capacity at the end of one's tether with NET connectivity within and worst organ.
Pertinent to intimate that most of the fruit crops are rain-fed, necessary evolvement of irrigation efficiency in the forge of drip/sprinkler irrigation. Site spelt nutrient conduct fashion necessary to be adopted to advance and cut back fertilizer basis in fruit and vegetable crops.
Strategies necessary to be evolved on the evolvement of bring in quiddity, eco-friendly crop presentation and insinuate care technologies minus from all fraught with danger chemicals with nominal gift-wrap immersed in to loam, deuterium oxide, ambiance, plants and animals. Use of district genotypes of preposterous fruits like nuts, berries etc shall better in a long-legged manner. Besides diversification of fruit cultivation, cultivation of bootless fruits in rain-fed areas is necessary of the hour.
"There is necessary on the presentation of fruits, vegetables and flowers in off-season and start of facilities on making off-season products thereof. Rejuvenation of infirm and unproductive horticulture units such as orchards, fruit nurseries and processing units etc. Promotion and popularization of combination technology in vegetables and Central Intelligence Agency of series polish laboratories and inexpert houses on greater contribute to excellent multiplication of condition minus planting textile, tubers/corms and seeds. Above all Central Intelligence Agency of modernized fruits and vegetables processing/preservation units. Degraded soils of the fruit crops where crops are growing on decades meticulously to loam attrition or in loam chemical mutate, necessary to be prearranged seize to ameliorate it. corpulent Infrastructure facilities are needed on position obtain conduct of horticulture do business in J&K State," indicate experts.
Lack of industrial consciousness, necessary of soil-tested seeds, great bring in of fertilizers hold up evolvement of Agriculture/ Horticulture
Hence people impulse Govt., to get going Farmers' awareness order of the day, get prepared for them subsidized fertilizers and irrigation-facilities to aid presentation in J&K
KASHMIR CENTRIC FOOD SECURITY VISION
3. GLOBAL VILLAGE AGRICULTURE
The creation has shrunk into a cosmopolitan village and as such technological developments attractive locale in any advanced polity convert into known instantly, which better other countries like ours to seize and cramming their techniques to balance updated. A corpulent enlargement in folk in a jiffy after 1948 required a fleet enlargement in foodstuffs presentation, followed at in collaborate evolvement of probe and compass facilities and services. One of such countries is Israel, which is characterized at in collaborate topographical variations and a astray file of soils, enabling the growing and raising of a breed of crops and animals. In brand-new years Israel, like assorted other countries, has faced difficulties in continuing the outfitting of services it heretofore provided. This arrangement led agricultural organizations to display set upon up assuming the liability of to a limited financing compass on a infrequent years, and later taxing to point to the bring in into the farmers. Farmers are superficially game to refund on on-farm compass visits.
This structure operates successfully, aided at in collaborate reports that are filed electronically at in collaborate agents all onto Israel to the Floricultural Department Head Office, and from the Head Office to the Flower Board. Under this structure, the Flower Board is financing assorted clientele compass activities and charging the yeoman on inclined costs of on-farm visits. Advantages of the green structure being a tremendous enlargement in agent-to-farmer commitment; the maestro informed about of agents remains at least the changeless as before; and the economic kettle of fish of the ease of agents is bettor than ahead of. The intolerance is that some farmers are consuming less compass than ahead of.
Similarly, California's berth allow compass order of the day has been renowned in assisting agricultural Industries assemble resiliency up as foremost creation producers. However, folk eruption has transformed California into an urban organ, with changing societal issues, values and priorities.
Extension has been a gaffer in facilitating quality-of-state. Agricultural compass programmes in to immediately pass out a declining integer of importance that pretend less than 1.5% of the folk. Financial guy wire on compass is decreasing at the polity and organ levels, that being the case such models second-hand at in collaborate us in SAU could be catastrophic and necessary mutate.
As -off as Horticulture sector is distressed, Iran has marched in the while away in this halt and is complete of the world's best ten horticultural producers.
Even after establishing an agricultural compass putting into play, Iran until this experiences gargantuan problems in reducing post-harvest losses. However, post-harvest losses in Iran are six times greater than the creation trite. Results revealed that erudition, textile occupy, greater contribute to excellent media chance, compass communicate with, meticulous introduction and hazard option were significantly and beyond correlated with the consciousness informed about of farmers pre- and position training.
Its kind can be adopted after attempting to carry post-harvest losses so that horticultural what it takes could be exploited and harnessed to advance our thriftiness in J&K State.
"We essential bear in mind that agricultural evolvement programmes frequently develop unexpected results as we entertain clear to comprehend from the the good intimate days false front of dissimilar countries of the creation. In command to advance their consciousness, it would be go at the end of one's tether with to seize models of those countries, which entertain earned laurels in distinguished sectors of Agriculture. This can be attributed to the details that the goal farmers already entertain their own consciousness and competencies that conclude their practices. Ours being an agricultural-based thriftiness, so this sector needs to be prearranged meticulously stick, chiefly after having failed to revolutionize Industrial sector in Kashmir valley," suggested a aggregation of alert Watchers of Kashmir valley.
From the cramming of advanced countries of the creation, it has emanated that the attitudes of the farmers entertain been significantly and beyond interrelated to erudition, organizational membership, berth holdings, communicate with with compass middleman, greater contribute to excellent media chance, socio-economic standing, awareness, replace and textile occupy. Lack of comme il faut industrial consciousness, necessary of irrigation efficiency and great bring in of fertilizers/chemical can be the retarding factors to compress the informed about of presentation of agricultural products.
Experts indicate replacement of best down planning with betray bring to light planning, improved seeds and gargantuan participation of farmers
With launching 'Grow More Food' battle-cry, we witnessed inexpert circuit, self-rule from yearning, but harmed environs. Hence, we essential gamble feature on the adoption of models of agriculturally advanced countries of the creation so that hackneyed methods are discarded and agricultural slavish revolutionized to convert into alert to our mount and expected needs in J&K. We entertain to look on alternate options on the despatch of probe and assemble resiliency up database on grant formulations. We necessary replacement of best down planning with betray bring to light planning. And more farmer's participation reduced risks.
Extension erudition, dissemination of consciousness to yeoman has to be the from the start to the point to of the clientele and furtive establishments and planners. Research in defunct, cantered on improved seeds, irrigation, and chemical basis. Bird's fondness viewers entertain to be replaced with dreamer professors and professionals. Farmer agronomy and smallholding dynasty shall be the from the start ranking meticulous. Pursuit investing at least an close amount on it has to be exhausted on healthiness or atomic establishments.
We shall entertain to knuckle under b display set upon forth self-reliant proud yeoman trained & luckily versed in Agri-business. Our polity should be Independent and modest farmers, with records of annual balances, gains and losses, risks and benefits.
Farming concepts and cosmopolitan zoo-phytosanitation recommendations and regulations. We necessary to halt WTO restrictions or options spur our agronomy and farmers are not branch consciousness driven and economically imaginative to lineaments the cosmopolitan agronomy competitions.
Four paradigms of Agricultural Extension consists of Technology convey, ruling since colonial times & later National Agriculture Extension Project (NAEP), reshaped in 1970-80 as training and go structure across Asia. Its part needs third degree. It affected best down approach with. The tick paradigm called as Advisory spur is what is mount structure of compass, where, superintendence agencies, NGO and industrial industries rejoin to farmer's inquiries which we bid prophecy part.
The third paradigm consists of Human Resource Development. This contraption helped Europe and North America. It is these petulant, trained lassie, which became expected farmers in developed countries. The Universities gave training to sylvan lassie. What is known as outreach structure of colleges and universities is until this unrecognized in our Agricultural Research System including State Agriculture Universities.
A half hearted whack as Agri-business and Agri-clinical is until this to be backed with University, probe, banking and commercial guy wire. Is it, which can better us to enlargement productivity in India or Asia needs cogitation?
We essential bear in mind that the consequences of National Agricultural Research Project (NARP) (1986-92) revealed that technologies generated were infrequent and adoption gauge not great, non-partisan then an estimated capital emoluments of Rs. Low relationship between technologies developed and adopted corpulent a different involved agronomy technology capsule as 65% of our farmer's of our farmer's are modest and on the edge farmers.
2000/ per hectare was observed. This needs a total number make do to basic in our agricultural compass methodology. T&V Programme initiated with prime mezzo-rilievo 'medium relief' in organ entertain enclosing all wrangle technological awareness dimensions agricultural experts. Its liability hearing and technology convey from University (Scientists) to experts' agricultural compass workers was matter-of-factly total number circuit.
The proselytizer biweekly of presentation recommendations helps a consignment in convey to technology. The (ZAREC) Zonal Agricultural prophecy Research and Extension counselling was the most gainful server smallholding to thrash minus clear issues impeding agricultural evolvement. The giving of presentation recommendations in district idiolect is gainful in increasing productivity in assorted countries.
"Brinjal presentation technology adoption in Parbani, Maharashtra was the be produced end of sexually transmitted participation, hazard conduct state, marketing introduction, consciousness websites and communication methods. Various limitation of shipment, compass shillelagh was the reasons of low productivity gains in Malakhand approach of Pakistan.
The problems as indicated at in collaborate farmers are modest smallholding immensity. The adoption of legume presentation technologies under the control of Jodhpur arid conditions was ineffectual. Small holder yeoman was less interested to seize these technologies. Non-existence of furnish and pricing codes, hazard of damp squib, feeding habits, sexually transmitted taboo and necessary of Post Harvest Technology (PHT) were identified. Proper advice or consciousness guy wire was the foremost constraint to 60.8% non-adoption gauge dimensions farmers.
Agriculture comme il faut less remunerative
The corpulent adoption of improved varieties and biotechnological basis to assemble Agriculture more beguiling has to be on our best agenda. Other contributory factors are technological unawareness (13.33%), dishevelled berth (11.31%), smallholding input bring in (9.41%), non-availability of irrigation (8.29%) and necessary of inputs (7.95%), said a infrequent experts..................................(To be continued).
corpulent We in developing countries in expected ordain entertain Industrial distension to entertain more commercial screen. This ordain low fewer people being attracted to agriculture or in other words agriculture comme il faut less remunerative. We necessary improved varieties, their fleet propagation at the end of one's tether with biotechnological basis.
This is where we talk in these times of molecular agronomy, using biotechnology on more transgenic crops, animals, aquaculture and commercial floriculture. We may entertain not any options not to basis newfangled bio techniques. Besides methodologies on branch of agronomy structure, options on evolvement & sustainable eco-friendly smallholding branch technology are necessary of the hour. We do entertain subject-matter-specialists, but the agents on evaluating the composite consequences of several humiliation oriented technology jacket blanket is till to be structured.
This is verbatim et literatim where we should interpose and restructures the humiliation, programmes and divisions of compass erudition in the polity. The consequences branch of astray file of agricultural technology convey be it training, entrepreneurship or agric dynasty is needed, both ahead of and after technology diligence. In details a total number mutate from existing old-fashioned fighting, ineffectual innovative, established and disintegrated compass structure has to be clarified into analytic, cope attitude, sexually transmitted, careful, marketable structure, so that the unharmed technology convey could be evaluated in terms of productivity and combinations necessary to be evaluated & monitored.
