Green Revolution - Perspective

Green Revolution refers to a series of research, development, and technology transfer initiatives, occurring between the 1940s and the late 1970s, that increased agriculture production around the world, beginning most markedly in the late 1960s. The initiatives, led by Dr Norman E Borlaug, the "Father of the Green Revolution" credited with saving over a billion people from starvation, involved the development of HYV of cereal grains, expansion of irrigation infrastructure, modernization of management techniques, distribution of hybridized seeds, synthetic fertilizers and pesticides to farmers. The term "Green Revolution" was first used in 1968 by former United States Agency For International Development (USAID) director William Gaud.

Needs to Produce 300 Mio Mt. of Food grain by the end of the decade to feed its growing Population estimated to be 1.32 bn Food Security Act :- The right of Food for all Increasing per capita income of 350 Million strong middle class (Per Capita Income has crossed $ 1000) :- Demand for food outstripping the supply

Need of Second Green Revolution

India is aspiring to be a developed country. This aspiration demands a paradigm shift in the approach. Mainly From Subsistence Farming Entrepreneurial Farming. Land considered as an Asset Needs to be used for wealth creation. Asset needs conservation in order to maintain its capacity to create wealth. Developmental Framework must guarantee inclusive growth (considering those who neither have land or assets). GOAL- I Improving the Farm Income with a +ve impact on Farm ROI GOAL- II Sustainable Agriculture conserving the Natural Resources. Developed/developing countries with significant contribution from Agriculture to National GDP have depended on fewer crops for commercial prosperity a) USA and Canada Corn, Soyabean, Canola, Cotton b) Brazil- Coffee, Sugarcane, Cocoa, Soyabean, Orange c) Malaysia Rubber, Oil Palm Agriculturally developed states normally have a Commodity Based Approach a) Punjab- Basmati Rice, Cotton, Kinnow Maharashtra Grape, Pomegranate, Banana Subsistence Crops/General Field Crops to continue as the backbone for inclusive growth.

Second Green Revolution - Aims & Strategy

Aims Double the Foodgrain Production Conservation of the depleting Natural Resources and genetic diversity of the crops. Sustainable use of natural resources. Judicious use of Agrochemicals. Increase the nutritional quality of conventional food grains. Spread the benefit of Green Revolution across the spectrum of farmers. Strategy Proper and improved Crop Management Practices Enhanced use of irrigation water. Exploitation of Conventional Plant Breeding Methods. Utilization of Bio-tech as an extension of Plant Breeding. Adoption of New Technologies Nanotechnology and Bio-informatics. Precision Farming and Space Science, Remote Sensing. Marketing Network and Cold Chain. Public private partnership

Need of Partnership Building

Public Private partnership approach is to generate innovation in the agricultural sector

Why to establish PPP?

Innovation and knowledge are critical factors for achieving sustainable competitiveness. We become involved in partnerships to gain access to knowledge and technologies and to develop innovations that otherwise would be more costly for us to obtain or develop. The growing complexity of technologies, the knowledge necessary to develop chains and segments, and the scarcity of resources mean research cannot be carried out in isolation, whether by science and technology organizations or enterprises from the productive sector. Teamwork increases the quality and relevance of the results and the synergic effects that occur when we collaborate with actors who have knowledge and resources that we do not. Collaboration that brings cost efficiency and effectiveness

PPP - Potential partners must have a common interest

To increase the productivity of Crops Vertical Growth, Eastern State

Eastern India had remained relatively unaffected by the Green Revolution. This has been changed remarkably with the launch of BGREI since Paddy output from East has surged to 52.6 Mn T in 10-11 which is more than half of the countries harvest of 96 Mn T. Overall Foodgrain Production in East grew by 12% against all India increase of 2.2%. East has 46% of the countries water resources but uses only 3% for irrigation. Eastern India being endowed with natural resources deep fertile topsoil, copious water and plentiful sunlight can be on a path from a food-deficit to a food surplus region. PPP The role of private organization in the development of an effective delivery mechanism to transfer the technology to the farmers and or end users is now reasonably established. United Phosphorus Limited has been involved in the Eastern States for the last four years in popularizing the cultivation of Hybrid Paddy, Sunflower and Corn.

UPL- PPP in Eastern States

Our major participation has been in development of Hybrid paddy in West Bengal, Bihar, Assam and Jharkhand. Sunflower in West Bengal and Orissa and Corn in Assam.

UPL- Hybrid Paddy Seed Production

UPL is also participating with the Govt of West Bengal for the cultivation of Hybrid Paddy Seeds in the state.

UPL Success Story - Argentina

In 20 years(1990-2010) Argentina has become a force to reckon with, in oilseeds and food grains. Total crop production has raised from 40 Million Tonnes to 110 Million Tonnes. This was mainly through 1) GM Soyabean Seeds, 2) No- Tillage Planting and 3) Creation of Planting Pools No-Till Allows double cropping, increases amount of water and organic matter in soil, lowers fertilizer needs and decreases soil erosion. This helped reduce farming cost to half, brought more marginal areas into cultivation, corn yield doubled and wheat yield increased 50%. Planting Pools Success of Argentinian Agriculture is primarily attributed to the growth of Planting Pools under PPP. Similar to the concept of Clustering in India. Under Planting pools Land ownership and Land under management has become two different concept in Argentina, with currently 50-60% of production currently done on rented land. Investment in Planting Pools are as low as$1000 and expected returns are 15-20% more annually. Weather and production risk fall entirely on the investor while price risk would fall on the farmer. United Phosphorus de Argentina, SA is in partnership with the Argentinian Govt taking this forward to as many small and marginal farmers as possible.

UPL Farmers Field School

UPL is one of the first companies in India when we started the FFS in Goragacha Village in Nadia in 1999. The main emphasis was Resource Conservation, Crop Diversification, Organic Farming and Judicious use of Scarce Farm Resources.

Bengal

All such schools are Organized in consultation with the Respective State Agri Dept, Agri Univ and Govt officials. Till date more than 1400 families have been benefitted by 24 FFS across India. The latest FFS is being run in Tezpur in Assam.

IMAGINATION 2050
Imagine the scenario of the country of 2050:
Food grain production is doubled into 400 million tons. Farm productivity improved in perpetuity. In-spite of moderate unhealthy urbanization India emerges as a large food grain producer for the world. Malnutrition and hunger is alleviated. Second green revolution should be an ever green revolution.
