CHAPTER 2
APPROACH AND STRATEGIES 2.1 Approach & Thrust Areas

2.1.1 The Animal Husbandry and Fisheries sectors play an important role in the national economy, and in the socio-economic development of the country. These sectors also play a significant role in supplementing family incomes and generating gainful employment in the rural sector, particularly among the landless, small and marginal farmers and women, besides providing cheap nutritional food to millions of people. 2.2 National Agriculture Policy

2.2.1 The National Agriculture Policy aims to attain a growth rate in excess of 4 per cent per annum in the agriculture sector, stresses the importance of food and nutritional security issues and the importance of animal husbandry and fisheries sectors in generating wealth and employment. Since the present growth rate in crop production is around 2%, higher growth rates of 6 to 8% in Animal Husbandry sector, would help in achieving the targeted growth rate of 4% for the Agriculture sector as a whole. The Policy proposes to accord high priority to diversification of production, increasing protein availability in the food basket and generation of exportable surpluses. Health care, fodder production, and freedom from animal diseases are some of the other areas of importance, as envisaged in the Policy document. 2.2.2 On fisheries, an integrated approach to marine and inland fisheries, designed to promote sustainable aquaculture practices, has been envisaged. The fields of biotechnological applications in the genetics and breeding, immunology and disease control are some of the other priority areas. The policy indicates that deep-sea fishing will be developed to take advantage of the vast potential of the resources in the countrys exclusive economic zone. 2.3 Approach for 10th Plan

2.3.1 The Agriculture Policy lays stresses on the importance of food and nutritional security through diversification of agriculture in animal husbandry and fishery sector. The Approach Paper to the Tenth Five Year Plan has also identified animal husbandry including dairying and poultry as an important component of agricultural diversification. The commitment of the Government to enhance food production also calls for rapid increase in the production of livestock, fish and fishery products. Keeping these in view, the emphasis of the Department will be on the all round development of these sectors. 2.3.2 In consonance with the overall strategy of the Tenth Plan, the major thrust of the policies and activities of the Department was concentrated on rapid genetic upgradation of cattle and buffaloes, provision of health cover including

creation of disease free zones, provision of nutritious feed and fodder, integrated approach to marine and inland fisheries, development of deep sea fishing, etc. 2.3.3 The major thrust during the 10th Five Year Plan is, hence, on the following critical areas; Rapid genetic up gradation of cattle and buffaloes and improvement in the delivery mechanism of breeding inputs and services to farmers. Extension of dairy development activities in non-Operation Flood, hilly and backward areas, including clean milk production. Promotion of fodder crops and fodder trees to improve animal nutrition. Provision of adequate animal health services with special emphasis on creation of disease free zones and control of foot and mouth disease. Improvement of small ruminants & pack animals Development of backyard poultry in rural areas. Provision of credit facility to farmers for viable activities. Development of reliable database and management information system. Adoption of integrated approach to marine and inland fisheries, designed to promote sustainable aquaculture practices. Strengthening of infrastructure for production of fish seed, berthing and landing facilities for fishing vessels. Mechanization of fishing boats. Development of the deep sea fishing industry to take advantage of the vast potential of countrys exclusive economic zone.
MAIN THRUST AREAS
Animal diseases control. Livestock breed improvement & development. Fodder development. Dairy and Poultry development. Fisheries development.

2.3.4 Development of backyard poultry, breed improvement, fodder development, promotion of extension programme, clean milk production, development of inland fishing insurance for fishermen and integrated dairy development scheme have also been identified as the thrust area. 2.4 Strategy

2.4.1 Accordingly, the strategy and objectives pursued for development of animal husbandry and fisheries sectors during the year can be summarized as follows: (i) Expand and strengthen the infrastructure for artificial insemination, improve its efficiency and effectiveness using frozen semen technology for crossbreeding purposes. (ii) Creation of seed stock of qualitative superior bulls and bull mothers which would form the nucleus germplasm pool for rapidly building a national milch herd of high productivity cattle and buffaloes.

STRATEGIES
Expansion of infrastructure. Creation of seed stock of superior bulls and bull mothers. Adequate animal health services. Facilitate genetic improvement and conservation of indigenous breeds Improve productivity of pasturelands through improved fodder seeds. Upgradation of

(iii)Facilitate genetic improvement of important livestock breeds through selective breeding and crossbreeding of low production non-descript stock, both for milk and draught purposes. Important indigenous breeds will be conserved. (iv) Improve productivity of pasturelands by introducing improved fodder seeds and increased use of waste lands for fodder production. (v) Develop adequate animal health services for protection of livestock, with special emphasis on control of foot and mouth disease. (vi) Improve the database in respect of livestock products. (vii)Enhance the adoption of technological inventions for increasing productivity of livestock products. (viii)Upgradation of fishing capabilities of existing mechanized vessels and introduction of intermediate range of fishing craft with capacity to fish in depth of 70-150 meters. (ix)Development of large, medium and small reservoirs and floodplain lakes for fish yield optimization. (x)Development of Freshwater aquaculture through Fish Farmers Development Agencies by providing assistance to fish farmers on various technology packages of aquaculture. (xi)Popularization of freshwater prawn farming including setting up small-scale prawn hatcheries. (xii)Development of environmentally sustainable aquaculture practices in coastal areas. (xiii)Development of fisheries and aquaculture in hill areas for both food and sports fishing. (xiv) Publication of extension material in print and electronic media on various topics for popularization of fisheries and aquaculture. (xv) Welfare programmes for farmers and fishermen through insurance coverage, improvement of traditional habitats etc. 2.5 The Governments initiative and assistance to States

2.5.1 As the Agriculture including Animal Husbandry, Dairying and Fisheries, is a state subject, the emphasis of the Department has been on supplementing the efforts of the State Government in the development of these sectors. The Governments efforts are mainly concentrated on increasing the production of major livestock products, fish and fishery products. Accordingly the Department has been providing assistance to the State Governments for the control of animal diseases, scientific management and upgradation of genetic resources, increasing availability of nutritious feed and fodder, sustainable development of processing and marketing facilities and enhancement of production and profitability of livestock and fisheries enterprises.

Identification and location of superior germ plasm 2. Using this data for producing superior germ plasm. 3. Preservation of indigenous germ plasm. 4. Milk recording of Cattle and Buffaloes for improving Dairy Industry. 3.5.2 This scheme has a significant role in assisting the Departments of Animal Husbandry of States& UTs, private sectors and Government undertakings in procuring elite dairy cows and buffaloes as well as bulls and progeny of high genetic potential for use in the development programme. 3.5.3 Total 92 Milk Recording Centres located in the States of Gujarat, Maharashtra, Rajasthan, Haryana, Delhi, Uttar Pradesh and Andhra Pradesh are functioning under the 4 CHRS Units i.e. Rohtak, Ahmedabad, Ajmer and Ongole for recording the milk of indigenous breeds of Gir, Kankrej, Hariana, Ongole of Cattle and Murrah, Jaffrabadi, Surti and Mehsani breeds of buffalo for their confirmation of
15

Pheno-typing breed characteristic and milk production level. These are identified in their breeding tracts and publicity is made for marketing of registered cows and buffaloes and their calves. 3.5.4 The primary registration of 10,341 cows and buffaloes is made during 2003-2004 against the target of 11,040. A seminar on field performance recording and field visits were organized during 2003-04. 3.6 National Project for Cattle & Buffalo Breeding

3.6.1 Genetic improvement is a long term activity and Government of India has initiated a major programme National Project for Cattle and buffalo Breeding (NPCBB) from October, 2000, in two phases each of five years, with an allocation of Rs.402 crores for the first phase. This envisages genetic upgradation on priority basis by reorganization and reorientation of the cattle and buffalo breeding operations in the country. The Project provides 100% grant-in-aid to the State Implementing Agencies. The Major objectives of the Project are: (i) to arrange delivery of vastly improved artificial insemination service at the farmers doorstep (ii) to progressively bring under organised breeding through artificial insemination or natural service by high quality bulls, all breedable females among cattle and buffalo within a period of 10 years (iii) to undertake breed improvement programme for indigenous cattle and buffalo breeds so as to improve their genetic qualities as well as their availability, and (iv) to provide quality breeding inputs in breeding tracts of important indigenous breeds so as to prevent the breeds from deterioration and extinction. 3.6.2 The Project components specially designed to address the existing inadequacies will focus on the natural mating system as well as the A.I. network with particular attention to: (a) streamlining storage and supply of Liquid Nitrogen by sourcing supply from industrial gas manufacturers and setting up bulk transport and storage systems for the same (b) introduction of quality bulls with high genetic merit through Field Performance Recording, Progeny Testing, Embryo Testing Technology. (c) promotion of private mobile A.I. service for doorstep delivery (d) conversion of existing stationery Government A.I. centers into mobile AI centers (e) quality control of bulls, Frozen Semen and services at sperm stations, semen banks and training institutions (f) study of breeding systems in areas out of reach of A.I. and (g) institutional restructuring by way of entrusting the job of managing production and supply of genetic inputs as well as Liquid Nitrogen to a specialized autonomous and professional State Implementing Agency.

16

3.6.3 Presently, 24 States are participating in the Project and a sum of Rs.134.57 crores has been released to these States so far. The project has been provided a budgetary allocation of Rs.48.00 crores during 2003-2004 and a sum of Rs. 35.95 crores have been released to 15 States for creation of 5457 mobile AIC, Strengthening/Establishment of 5 Sperm Station, Strengthening/Establishment of 31 Frozen Semen Bank and Strengthening/Establishment of 17 Training Centre. Under the Project, four National Seminars and one Regional Seminar on Cattle and Buffalo Breeding were also organised in Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Uttar Pradesh, Uttaranchal and Nagaland, respectively. 3.7 Poultry Development

3.7.1 Poultry Development has taken a quantum leap in the last three decades emerging from a near backyard practice to a venture of industrial promotion. India is on the world map as one of the leading egg producing countries with about 37 billion eggs produced per annum. The broiler production has also sky rocketed at an annual growth rate of about 15% and stands at about 1000 million broiler at present. 3.7.2 After the initial boost given by the Central Poultry Breeding Farm to promote poultry farming on commercial lines in the country the poultry sector has flourished and now about 70% of the production management and marketing is under a highly organized sector. The rest 30% of the unorganized sector whose contribution needs to be strengthened is now being focused upon by promoting backyard poultry. 3.7.3 Apart from taking important policy decisions and providing infrastructure support, the department is now planning to diversify its activities by stepping up production of Turkey, Quail, Guineas fowl etc. 3.8 Central Poultry Development Organisations (Regional Directorate on Poultry Development) 3.8.1 Twelve Poultry Units working under this Deptt. have been restructured by clubbing the Units of respective regions and named as Central poultry Development Organizations, so as to converge the poultry development activities in a single window system. These organizations are now operating to meet the following requirements of their respective region. i) Making available quality chicks: At these centers, identified low-input technology poultry stocks will be multiplied and mostly supplied to all States of the region as well as any other State(s) as & when required, for their rural poultry development programs. These organizations as and when required will procure breeding stock of low input technology developed by ICAR, Agriculture Universities, private sectors, NGOs etc. and will also explore the possibility of importing such germplasm developed abroad. The industrial type of birds will be phased out completely. ii) Diversification program: So far poultry development has been concentrated on only one species i.e. chicken. This department has identified diversification of this

17

program as a thrust area and as such the other species such as Duck and Turkey (Southern region), Japanese Quail (Northern and Western region) and Guinea fowl and Duck (Eastern region) will be suitably strengthened. Since these diversification programs on large scale will be taken up for the first time in the country, training in the breeding and management of Turkey, Guinea fowl, Duck and Japanese Quail etc. woud be taken from countries which have developed good stock and their management practices are suited for the Indian system of rearing. If necessary these stocks may also be imported to develop a broad base germplasm. iii) Strengthening of Feed quality monitoring wing: The feed laboratories are concentrating their activities in the following areas: a. b. c. analytical

Analysis of various feed/feed ingredients; To develop least cost feed formulation based on locally available ingredients; To work as a referral lab for assessing the residual effects of various toxic substances in poultry feed including poultry products.

iv) Training Program: The training programme will be suitably tailor made at all the regional Centres to meet the requirement of trainers, farmers, women beneficiaries, various public and private sector poultry organizations, NGOs, Banks, Cooperatives and foreign trainees etc. v) Adoption of village: Each Directorate will adopt 5 to 10 villages in their region by extending extension services to make it a model poultry village, which will serve as a Demonstration centre. vi) Random Sample Tests: Under this the Random Poultry Performance Testing Center located at Gurgaon, Haryana is being strengthened to convert the center to National level standards providing all modern facilities in the areas of housing, feeding, watering so as to enable the department to test regularly the various stocks available in the country as well as imported from outside India by various poultry industrial sectors so as to assess the performance of those stocks in India and also the center will be helpful for monitoring the disease status. 3.8.2 The physical target and achievement for some of the important item are indicated below: Item/unit Parent chicks to be supplied (in thousand) Production of Ducklings in thousands Feed sample to be analyzed ( in nos.)

Centrally Sponsored Scheme Assistance To State Poultry/ Duck

The scheme is being implemented in all the States and UTs. The pattern of assistance is 100% in the case of North Eastern States including Sikkim whereas it is 80:20 in respect of other States between center and State respectively at the rate of maximum Rs. 85.00 lakhs for each farm. In the existing premises of the State farms poultry guinea fowl, quail, turkey can also be taken up as a new activity. The scheme also applies to the farms of the State Governments farms running in collaboration with cooperatives/private sector/NGOs etc. One time assistance is provided to strengthen them in terms of hatching, brooding and rearing of the birds with provision for feed mill and their quality monitoring and in-house disease diagnostic facilities. These farms maintain the parent stock of low input technology birds duly identified by this department in consultation with ICAR and State Government. A provision has been made in the scheme for revolving fund for purchase of replacement breeding stock, feed ingredients, transportation, medicines and vaccines etc. The amount so spent has to be recouped from the sale proceeds of eggs, chicks and culled birds etc. and may be used for the farm year after year making it a financially self-sufficient unit. Under this scheme Rs.10.66 crores during 2002-03 and Rs.5.48 crores during 2003-04 have been sanctioned and released to the State Governments.

3.9.2 Under the scheme instructions have been issued to all the States and UTs to select women groups as the beneficiaries for distribution of day old poultry birds of low input technology. 3.10 Central Sheep Breeding Farm, Hissar (Haryana)

3.10.1 The Farm was established during the Fourth Five Year Plan for producing and disseminating acclimatized stud rams to various State Sheep Farms for cross-breeding programmes and genetic stock up gradation. The farm also runs training courses in mechanical sheep shearing, grading of wool and maintenance of sheep shearing machines. The farm has supplied a total of 3725 exotic and crossbred rams and 74 ewes to beneficiaries through the State Governments during Ninth Five Year Plan. As against the target of production 750 rams during 2002-03 it has supplied 1023 rams. Against the target supply of 750 rams during 2003-04, the Farm has supplied 510 rams and 50 ewes.

3.11

Conservation of Threatened Livestock Breeds (New)

3.11.1 A new Centrally Sponsored Scheme Conservation of threatened livestock breeds of small ruminants, pack animals and equine to conserve and protect threatened breeds of livestock, has been initiated during 10th Plan. Under the scheme, assistance is provided to the States for the conservation of sheep, goat, pigs, camels, yak, horse, donkey and ponies. The grant is given through the State Government to the State Government farms / State Government Undertakings / Boards / Federations / Government Institutes like ICAR, etc. / NGOs / Self-help Groups / farmers / breeders / professional scientists of repute involved in conservation work. 3.11.2 There is a budget provision of Rs.1500 lakhs for Tenth Five Year Plan and Rs 296 lakhs was released to the States during 2002-03. The assistance has been provided to Karnataka (Rs.63.80 lakhs), Gujarat (Rs.11.50 lakhs), Punjab (Rs.6.70 lakhs), Rajasthan (Rs.42.00 lakhs) and Tripura (Rs.171.50 lakhs) during 2002-03. The budgetary provision for 2003-04 has been kept again at Rs 50 lakhs and the whole amount has been released to the State of Mizoram. 3.12 Meat and Meat Products

3.12.1 Country is endowed with more than 11 per cent of the World livestock population comprising variety of meat animals such as buffaloes, goat, sheep, pigs, cattle, and poultry. Effective utilization of livestock resources is essential for sustainable animal production. The per capita animal protein availability is about 10 g as against the World average of 25 g. Considering the targeted minimum requirement of 20g per capita per day for animal protein, 4 g will come from meat remaining 16 g from other livestock products. The estimated demand of meat for the present population would be 7.7 million tones as against the present production of 5.7 million tones. Therefore significant gap exists between the demand and supply of meat and meat products. 3.12.2 Various un-productive categories of livestock are slaughtered for their effective utilization for production of meat. There is an urgent need to provide safe and wholesome meat, gainfully utilize animal by-products and prevent bird-`hit menace to aircrafts, prevent environmental pollution and to provide humane treatment to animals. Keeping these objectives in view, a Centrally Sponsored Scheme Assistance to States for improvement/modernization of slaughter houses and establishment of carcass utilization centers was being implemented with effect from 8th Five Year Plan. 3.12.3 Under the component Establishment of Carcass Utilization Centers, 100% central assistance was provided for building, plants and machinery and effluent treatment and 50% for water, electricity and land development etc. for establishing carcass utilization centers. 3.12.4 During the period under report, grants were released to the states of Tamilnadu Rs.47.49 lacs and Chattishgarh Rs.150.00 lacs for establishment of Carcass Utilisation centers at Namakkal and Raipur, respectively. 3.13 Feed and Fodder Development

20

3.13.1 The nutritive value of feed and fodder has a significant bearing on productivity of livestock. Due to increasing pressure on land for growing food grains, oil seeds and pulses adequate attention has not been given to the production of fodder crops. Further, on account of diversified use of agriculture residues, the gap between the demand and supply of fodder is increasing. According to the report of Working Group on Animal Husbandry and Dairying for 10th Five Year Plan of Planning Commission, the available fodder can meet the demand of only 46.7 per cent of livestock. Frequent droughts in several States have also brought out the need to develop fodder banks in vulnerable areas and strategies for improving the efficiencies of fodder supplies from one region to the other region of the country. The Department has two schemes viz. Central Fodder Development Organization and the Centrally Sponsored Scheme of Assistance to States for Feed and Fodder Development. A new centrally sponsored scheme on fodder development is also under consideration. 3.14 Central Fodder Development Organization

3.14.1 Under this scheme, 7 Regional Stations for Forage Production & Demonstration located in different agro-climatic zones of the country and 1 Central Fodder Seed Production Farm, Hessarghatta, Bangalore are being operated. Besides this, Central Minikit Testing Programme on Fodder Crops is being funded under this scheme. The details are as under: A. Regional Stations for Forage Production and Demonstration and Central Fodder Seed Production Farm 3.14.2 For production and propagation of certified seeds of high yielding varieties of fodder crops and pasture grasses/legumes, the Government has established 7 Regional Stations at Mamidipally, Hyderabad (Andhra Pradesh), Gandhi Nagar (Gujarat), Hissar (Haryana), Suratgarh (Rajasthan), Sahema (Jammu & Kashmir), Alamadhi (Tamil Nadu) and Kalyani (West Bengal) and 1 Central Fodder Seed Production Farm at Hessarghatta. These station are catering to requirements of the farmers of different agro-climatic regions. These Stations also carry out extension activities through field demonstrations and farmers fairs / field days. During the current year, these Stations have produced 209 tonnes of fodder seeds, conducted 2152 demonstrations, organized 25 training programmes and 28 farmers fairs / field days. B. 3.14.5 Central Minikit Demonstrations Minikit demonstrations on fodder crops aim at making farmers aware through field demonstrations about latest high yielding varieties of fodder crops and improved agronomic package of practices to increase production of green fodder. Certified seeds of high yielding fodder crops/grasses/legumes produced at Regional Stations and Central Farm, Hesserghatta, are used under this scheme. Fodder kits are allotted for onward distribution to the farmers free of cost. During 2003-04, 3.88 lakh minikits have been distributed.

Assistance to States for Feed and Fodder Development.

3.15.1 This is a Centrally Sponsored Scheme under which central assistance was being provided to States to supplement their efforts in feed and fodder development sector. This scheme has been discontinued after 9th Plan. However, two components of this scheme; i) establishment of fodder banks and ii) enrichment of straw/cellulosic waste have been revived up to March2004 to facilitate the States to combat the drought situation. A. Establishment of Fodder Banks. 3.15.2 Under this scheme, assistance is provided to the State Governments for establishment of fodder banks to preserve fodder for use during drought and scarcity period. Large areas in many States are used for growing grass, which could be preserved in the fodder banks. During 2003-04, Rs.76.98 lakhs have been provided with the funding pattern of 75:225 (Central:State) for establishing 2 fodder banks, in Tripura and Mizoram respectively. B. Enrichment of Straw and Cellulosic Wastes.

3.15.3 Under this scheme assistance is given to the farmers to enrich the quality of straw used for livestock, by treatment with urea and molasses. This help in increasing productivity and reducing the cost of milk production. Funding pattern for this component is 100% on central grant basis. During 2003-04, Rs.123.015 lakhs have been provided to the State Governments of Maharashtra (Rs.8.44 lakhs, Tripura (Rs,20.00 lakhs), Himachal Pradesh (Rs.2.00 lakhs), Rajasthan (Rs.40.00 lakhs), Karnataka (Rs. 25.00 lakhs) and Nagaland (Rs.27.57 lakhs). 3.16 Livestock Health

Further, for control of major livestock and poultry diseases by way of prophylactic vaccination, the required quantity of vaccines are produced in the country at 26 veterinary vaccine production units. Of these, 19 are in the public sector and 7 are in private sector. Import of vaccines by

22

private agencies is also permitted as and when required. The State-wise details of veterinary institutions are given at Annexure-XI. 3.16.2 While efforts are made to ensure better livestock health in the country, efforts are also made to prevent ingress of diseases from outside the country, and maintaining of standards of veterinary drugs and formulations. A. Animal Quarantine and Certification Service 3.16.3 The objective of this service is to prevent ingress of livestock diseases by regulating the import of livestock and livestock related products, and providing export certification of International Standards for livestock and livestock products, which are exported from India. Four Quarantine Stations are based at New Delhi, Chennai, Mumbai and Kolkata, which include a small laboratory. The details of Livestock and Livestock Products screened by these Quarantine Stations during 2003-04 are given at Annexure-XII B. National Veterinary Biological Products Quality Control Centre

3.16.4 At present the Indian Veterinary Research Institute has been assisting in the task of monitoring the quality of vaccines and biologicals. But in order to obtain better monitoring of the quality, it is essential to establish a separate Institute. For this purpose, it has been decided to set up Chaudhary Charan Singh Institute of Veterinary Health at Baghpat, Uttar Pradesh for which the land has been acquired and construction work is under progress. C. Strengthening Laboratories of Central / Regional Disease Diagnostic

3.16.5 In order to provide referral services over and above the existing disease diagnostic laboratories in the States, one Central and four Regional Disease Diagnostic Laboratories have been set up by strengthening the existing facilities. The Centre for Animal Disease Research and Diagnosis (CADRAD) of Indian Veterinary Research Institute, Izatnagar is functioning as Central Laboratory. The Disease Investigation Laboratory, Pune, Institute of Animal Health and Veterinary Biologicals, Kolkata, Institute of Animal Health & Biologicals, Bangalore and Animal Health Institute, Jallandhar are functioning as referral laboratories for Western, North-East & Eastern, Southern and Northern region, respectively. 3.17 Livestock Health & Disease Control

3.17.1 Under the Macro Management 10th Plan Centrally Sponsored Scheme Livestock Health and Disease Control the Government of India is implementing disease control activities by amalgamating 9th Plan schemes with some modifications. The scheme has the following components: (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) Assistance to States for Control of Animal Diseases (ASCAD) National Project on Rinderpest Eradication (NPRE) Professional Efficiency Development (PED) Foot & Mouth Disease Control Programme (FMD-CP)-New component.

23

A.

Assistance to States for Control of Animal Diseases (ASCAD)

3.17.2 Under this component, assistance is provided to State / Union Territory Governments for control of economically important diseases of livestock and poultry by way of immunization, strengthening of existing State Veterinary Biological Production Units, strengthening of existing Disease Diagnostic Laboratories and inservice training to Veterinarians and Para-veterinarians. Besides this the programme envisaged collection of information on the incidence of various livestock and poultry diseases from States and Union Territories and compiling the same for the whole country. The information so compiled is disseminated in the form of Monthly Animal Disease Surveillance Bulletin to all the States and Union Territories and also Organisations like Office International Des Epizooties (OIE), Animal Production and Health Commission for Asia and Pacific (APHCA), etc. This information system has been harmonized in accordance with the guidelines of OIE. The State Governments were advised to publish their disease reports in local languages as well, for better dissemination of information to all concerned. Most of the States are publishing the reports in local languages also. Incidence of Livestock and Poultry diseases in India during the year 2003 is at Annexure-XIII. B. Professional Efficiency Development

3.17.3 The Professional Efficiency Development programme is being continued as one of the components of the main scheme Livestock Health & Disease Control during the 10th Five Year Plan, with a view to regulate veterinary practices and to maintain register of the veterinary practitioners. The programme envisages establishment of Veterinary Council of India at Centre and State Veterinary Councils at state level in those States / Union Territories which have adopted the Indian Veterinary Council Act, 1984. C. National Project Rinderpest Eradication (N.P.R.E) on
The whole country is at present provisionally free from rinderpest. Sero Surveillance work initiated in randomly selected 1162 villages in country to generate information for preparing dossier for OIE to attain final stage Freedom from Rinderpest Infection. Vaccine against PPR, a dreaded disease of sheep and goat developed at TANUVAS, Chennai. Rinderpest C-ELISA kit developed by IVRI, Mukteshwar through NPRE funding. Eradication programme for Contagious Bovine Pleuro Pneumonia (CBPP) initiated in 8 districts of Assam by NPRE in 20012002.

3.17.4 This centrally sponsored scheme is being implemented throughout the country since May, 1992 and is being continued as one of the components of the Livestock Health and Disease Control during 10th Plan. The earmarked outlay of the scheme for the 10th Plan is Rs.40 crores and the BE for 2003-04 is Rs.7 crores. The main objective of the scheme is to eradicate Rinderpest and Contagious Bovine Pleuro Pneumonia (CBPP) by strengthening the veterinary services and to obtain freedom from Rinderpest & CBPP infection following the pathway prescribed by Office International des Epizooties (OIE), Paris.

24

3.17.5 The successful implementation of this scheme will yield major economic benefits to owners of livestock, particularly small, marginal farmers and landless labourers. Besides, the scheme is expected to give a boost to export of meat and other livestock products and expenditure on livestock health care programmes would substantially be reduced due to eradication of rinderpest and CBPP from the country. Project Frame of NPRE 3.17.6 The Project is being implemented with the participation of Departments of Animal Husbandry of the States & Union Territories, ICAR Research Institutes etc. The Project is being monitored by a Central Project Monitoring Unit (CPMU) with similar monitoring units established at the state level. The technical programme of the project frame is as per the OIE pathway stipulation. Funds are released to the States/UTs on 100% funding pattern for carrying out the NPRE activities. Physical Achievements 3.17.7 The salient achievements of the project are as under: The first stage of Provisional freedom from Rinderpest disease for the whole country was achieved with effect from 1st March, 1998.

The second stage of Freedom from Rinderpest disease for the country with zones has been approved by OIE on 12.03.2004

For attaining the third and final stage of Freedom from Rinderpest Infection, the sero surveillance work has been started in randomly selected 1162 villages across the country. 1st Phase (1.11.01 to 30.10.02) and IInd phase (1.11.02 to 31.10.03) have been completed. IIIrd phase has been taken up w.e.f. 1.11.03 and after its completion on 31.10.04, the dossier shall be submitted to OIE to seek the final stage Freedom from Rinderpest Infection.

Eradication programme for Contagious Bovine Pleuro Pneumonia (CBPP) which is also the mandate of NPRE, has been initiated in 8 districts of Assam. Clinical surveillance and sero surveillance for this programme is underway in these districts. Provisional freedom from CBPP has been declared in October, 2003. National Animal Disease Emergency Committee (NADEC) and National Emergency Task Force (NETF) have been set up to tackle any situation arising due to re-emergence of foci of Rinderpest or any other exotic disease. State Animal Disease Emergency Committees (SADEC) are being constituted in the States on the same lines. 3.17.8 Current Programme status

25

As the country has been declared as Free from Rinderpest Disease, the physical surveillance through village, stock route & institutional searches to detect any hidden cases of rinderpest is being undertaken throughout the country with the help of the staff of Animal Husbandry department of the States & UTs. A strategic reserve of 2.5 million doses of Rinderpest Vaccine is being maintained at 6 Vaccine Banks across the country to meet any eventuality arising due to re-emergence of Rinderpest. A homologous PPR vaccine has been developed in the country. Six State Biological Production Units have been identified to undertake vaccine production. Animal Disease Information System is being put in place wherein all the Directorates of Animal Husbandry in States/UTs of the country shall be linked with Department of Animal Husbandry and Dairying, Government of India through RF /Dial up facility for transmission of disease information. D. Foot & Mouth Disease Control Programme (New)

3.17.9 Under macro-management approach, a new component Foot and Mouth Disease Control Programme is being implemented in 54 specified districts in the country to control the Foot and Mouth Disease as Fourth component with 100% funding which includes the cost of vaccine and supporting expenses. However the State Governments are providing manpower and infrastructure and logistic support. About 250 lakhs vaccinations has been carried out under this programme during the year 2003-2004. 3.18 Animal Husbandry Statistics

3.18.1 The Animal Husbandry Statistics Unit of the Department is responsible for maintaining database for animal husbandry, dairying and fishery activities. It coordinates data collection concerning production of major livestock products i.e. milk, egg, wool and meat and other livestock statistics through interaction with State Governments and other Central departments/organizations concerned with development of the Livestock Sector. Livestock products are estimated on the basis of sample surveys being conducted throughout the year under the Centrally Sponsored Scheme Integrated Sample Survey for the Estimation of major Livestock Products. All the States and Union Territories are implementing the scheme. Besides production estimates, other related data like feed and fodder consumption by animals, utilization of milk, eggs and utilization of dung etc., are also collected and compiled. Under this scheme, financial assistance is provided on 50:50 basis to the State Governments and 100% assistance to Union Territories for conducting the surveys. The estimates of livestock production are worked out on seasonal basis, which are published in the consolidated annual report of the sample survey prepared by the States/UTs. 3.18.2 In order to streamline animal husbandry statistics, identify shortcomings and to suggest suitable methodology for estimation of production, an Expert Committee namely Technical Committee for Direction for Improvement of

26

Animal Husbandry & Dairying Statistics has been constituted. This Committee also reviews progress of implementation of the scheme of Integrated Sample Survey for the estimation of major livestock products and approves estimates of production of milk, egg, wool and meat. The "Basic Animal Husbandry Statistics publication contains important data relating to livestock and other related activities. 3.18.3 During the Tenth Plan two new components have been added to the scheme- one to provide Information Technology solutions for the data analysis work relating to the sample survey and other is to conduct special studies to fill the gaps in the animal husbandry statistics. Under the IT solutions, The states of NE region and the UTs will be provided 100% grant and the rest states will be provided 50:50 grant. 3.19 Livestock Census

3.19.1 The livestock population of different species is worked out on the basis of livestock census, which is conducted quinquennially. Till the 16th Livestock census, conducted in 1997, the Directorate of Economics and Statistics in the Department of Agriculture and Cooperation, Ministry of Agriculture was coordinating the scheme. But during the 17th census the work has been transferred to Department of Animal Husbandry & Dairying. The ultimate responsibility to conduct the 17 th Livestock census is on the Director of Animal Husbandry in the States/UTs. 3.19.2 A conference was organized in the month of May, 2003 for all Directors of Animal Husbandry of the States/UTs and the manual for instructions to conduct the 17th Livestock census was finalized. National level seminars, State/district level training programmes have been conducted before the actual census work. Owing to the measures taken by the Department, the 17th Livestock census has been conducted by all the States/UTs and that too within a very short period of time. All India provisional census details are planned to be released by July, 2004.

27

CHAPTER 4
DAIRY DEVELOPMENT 4.1 The Indian Dairy Industry acquired substantial growth from 8th Plan onwards, achieving an annual output of over 69 million tonnes of milk. Indias milk output during the year 2001-2002 was estimated to be 84.6 million tonnes and is expected to reach the level of 88.0 million tonnes during 2002-03. This has not only placed the industry first in the world, but also represents sustained growth in the availability of milk and milk products for the burgeoning population of the country. Dairying has become an important secondary source of income for millions of rural families and has assumed the most important role in providing employment and income. The per capita availability of the milk has also increased to a level of about 226g. per day, but this is still very low as compared to developed nations or the world average of 285 g per day. Government of India is making efforts to increase the productivity of milch animals and thus increase the per capita availability of milk. 4.2 The efforts of the Department in the dairy sector are concentrated on promotion of dairy activities in non-operation flood areas with emphasis on building up cooperative infrastructure, revitalisation of sick dairy cooperative federations and creation of infrastructure in the States for testing the quality of milk and milk products. For pursuing these objectives, the Department has implemented 3 Schemes in the dairy sector during 2003-04. Besides this, the National Dairy Development Board (NDDB) continues its activities for the overall development of Dairy Sector in Operation Flood areas. 4.3 Integrated Dairy Development Project (IDDP) in Non-Operation Flood, Hilly and Backward Areas 4.3.1 An Integrated Dairy Development Programme in Non-Operation Flood, Hilly and Backward areas was launched during the 8th Plan. The scheme was continued during the 9th Plan and is being continued during 10th Plan with a total outlay of Rs.175 crores as a Centrally Sponsored Plan Scheme. It is being implemented on 100% grants in aid basis to the State Government. The main objectives of the scheme are as under: i) ii) iii) iv) v) vi) Development of milch cattle; Increase the milk production by providing technical inputs services; Procurement, Processing and Marketing of milk in a cost effective manner; Ensure remunerative prices to the milk producers;. Generate additional employment opportunities; Improve social, nutritional and economic status of residents of comparatively more disadvantaged areas. 4.3.2 Since inception of the scheme, 53 projects with the total outlay of Rs.292.19 crores have been sanctioned covering 149 districts of 23 States and one U.T. The scheme has benefited about 6.50 lakh(Provisional) farm families organised into about 10,275 Village level Dairy Cooperative Societies which are producing about 5.23 lakh litres of milk per day upto 31st December, 2003.

28

4.3.3 A total sum of Rs.209.12 crores have been released to the states Governments/UTs for implementation of approved projects upto 31st March 2004. 4.4 Assistance to Cooperatives

4.4.1 The scheme of Assistance to Cooperatives aims at revitalizing the sick dairy cooperative unions at the district level and cooperative federations at the State level. 4.4.2 The Department has so far approved 24 rehabilitation proposals of milk unions in Madhya Pradesh, Chattisgarh, Karnataka, Uttar Pradesh, Kerala, Maharashtra, Assam, Nagaland, Punjab, West Bengal and Tamil Nadu, with a total outlay of Rs. 145.62 crores. The scheme is being implemented on 50:50 sharing basis between Government of India and concerned State Governments. Out of 50% Government of Indias share of Rs. 72.81 crores, an amount of Rs. 54.36 crores has released upto 31st March, 2004. 4.4.3 So far, NDDB has identified tentatively 44 rehabilitation plan for assistance under the scheme. Each rehabilitation plan is to be implemented within a period of 7 years from the date of its approval. The committed liabilities of most of the rehabilitation plan is likely to be completed within the 10th five year plan period, however in some cases committed liability of some of rehabilitation plans may continue during the 11th five year plan. 4.5 Milk And Milk Product Order1992

4.5.1 The Govt. of India had promulgated the Milk and Milk Product Order (MMPO) 1992 on 9.06.1992 under the provisions of Essential Commodities Act, 1955 consequent to de-licencing of the Dairy sector in 1991. As per the provisions of this order, any person/dairy plant handling more than 10,000 liters per day of milk or 500 MT of milk solids per annum needs to be registered with the registering authority appointed by the Central Government. The main objective of the order is to maintain and increase the supply of liquid milk of desired quality in the interests of the general public and also for regulating the production, processing and distribution of milk and milk Products. 4.5.2 For faster pace of growth in the Dairy sector, Govt. of India has amended Milk and Milk Product Order 1992 from time to time in order to make it more liberal and oriented to facilitate the dairy entrepreneurs. During March 2002, Govt. of India decided to remove restrictions on setting up of new capacity and to do away with the concept of milkshed while noting that the requirement of registration is for enforcing the prescribed standards of quality and food safety. Accordingly, Govt. of India notified the amendment proposals in the official gazette on 26th March 2002. The salient features of the new amendments are as follows: The provision of assigning milkshed has been done away with. The registrations under MMPO-92 will now cover sanitary, hygienic condition, quality and food safety,aspects. The provision of inspection of dairy plant has been made flexible.

29

days.

The provision to grant registration in 90 days has been reduced to 45 The power of registration of State registering Authority has been raised from 1.00 LLPD to 2.00 LLPD.

4.5.3 The Central and the State Registering Authorities altogether have so far registered 653 units with combined capacity of 690.02 lakh liters per day in Cooperative, Private and Government Sector as on 31.3.2004. 4.6 Strengthening Infrastructure for Quality & Clean Milk Production

4.6.1 India ranks 1st in the world in milk production. However, quality standard prevalent today in milk production, milk collection and processing needs improvement. The microbiological quality of milk is poor due to lack of knowledge about clean milk production and lack of post milking chilling facilities in the villages. To compete in International market for export of milk and milk products, it has become necessary to produce the Indian dairy products of the international standards. Hence it has become necessary that immediate steps be taken for improving the quality of Indian milk products to boost up the export potential of milk and milk product to earn the valuable foreign exchange as well as to provide clean milk to domestic population for better health. 4.6.2 With this in mind, Department of Animal Husbandry & Dairying has introduced a new Centrally Sponsored Scheme namely Strengthening infrastructure for Quality & Clean Milk Production during 10th Plan with an outlay of Rs.30.00 Crores. The Scheme has the following objectives: Creation of necessary infrastructure for the production of quality milk and milk products at the farmers level up to the points of consumption. Improvement of milking procedure at the farmers level. Training and Strengthening of infrastructure to create mass awareness about importance of clean milk production.

4.6.3 The pattern of funding under the Scheme is on 100% Central share basis, for the following components:i. ii. iii. iv. v.
4.6.4

Training for clean milk production - all members of the society will be eligible for training. Detergent, antiseptic solutions, muslin cloth etc. Utensils and accessories for clean milk production. Strengthening of existing laboratory facilities. Planning and monitoring.

The pattern of funding for purchase of bulk coolers under the Scheme is in the ratio of 75: 25 between Government of India and the respective Dairy Co- operative Society/Union.

4.7

Dairy/Poultry Venture Capital Fund New scheme yet to be approved

4.7.1 To bring about structural changes in the unorganized sector, the measures like processing at village level, process and market pasteurized milk in a cost effective manner, quality upgradation and upgradation of traditional technology to handle commercial scale using modern equipment and management skills, it is proposed to introduce the new scheme of Dairy Venture Capital Fund scheme under which assistance will be provided to the rural beneficiaries under a schematic proposal through bankable projects. There is an outlay of Rs.25.00 crore made during the 10 th Five Year Plan. 4.7.2 Similarly, a considerable segment in the poultry sector is also still unorganized and is spread over in the form of small farms in far-flung areas that still needs organized effort to exploit their potential. Training and Marketing also continues to be the weakest link in the facet of various poultry development programs. Due to these limitations poultry development particularly in the North Eastern States and Eastern States are still at very primitive stage. In order to boost these unattended sectors and also to give incentive and create infrastructure facilities for organised sector, it is felt necessary to create a Poultry venture capital fund for providing financial assistance, which will encourage new species of birds and low input technology for poultry farming among rural farmers. 4.8 Post Operation Flood and Consolidation of Cooperative Movement by NDDB 4.8.1 National Dairy Development Board (NDDB), an institution of national importance was set up by the Government of India to promote, plan and organize programmes for development of dairy and other agriculture based and allied industries along cooperative lines on an intensive and nationwide basis. 4.8.2 Operation Flood (OF), an integrated dairy development programme, completed its third phase on April 30, 1996. The main thrust of the programme was to consolidate the gains already achieved, and to strengthen the dairy cooperative structure for sustainable development of the dairy industry in India. 4.8.3 After the completion of Phase 3 of Operation Flood, a Programme Implementation Agreement (PIA) was signed between the EEC and the NDDB to strengthen cooperatives at the grassroot level. The Agreement was endorsed by the Government of India on August 21, 1997. Consequently, measures were initiated from September 1997 and are continuing during 2003-04. 4.8.4 Perspective Plan, 2010

4.8.4.1 NDDBs Perspective Plan 2010, developed in consultation with the 126 identified cooperative milk unions and covering four thrust areas strengthening the cooperative business, enhancing productivity, managing quality and building a national information network aims to professionalise the working of dairy cooperatives in the emerging liberalised business environment.

31

4.8.4.2 During the current financial year, NDDB continued to provide financial support to the cooperative milk unions for implementation of their Perspective Plans. As on march 2004, under Phase I, NDDB approved the plans of cooperative milk unions with an investment outlay of Rs 883 crore. Out of this, NDDB has already released Rs 328 crore to these unions for various Perspective Plan activities. It is expected that an amount of over Rs 450 crore will stand disbursed under the Plans by the close of 2003-2004. 4.8.5 Strengthening the cooperatives

4.8.5.1 During the year NDDB provided need-based support to milk unions in strengthening dairy cooperative institutions, enhancing women involvement in dairy cooperatives and increasing milk procurement. NDDBs Institution Building Programme to strengthen dairy cooperatives in aspects like governance, management and economic viability, is being implemented in 76 cooperative milk unions across the country. NDDB also organised 12 training programmes during the year for milk union personnel to enable them to facilitate these village level Institution Building programmes. So far, about 300 union personnel have been trained. 4.8.5.2 Farmer Induction Programmes are also conducted to provide exposure to the producers in Anand pattern cooperative management, productivity and clean milk production practices. So far, 1598 farmers including 731 women have participated in 39 farmer induction programmes. 4.8.6 Productivity Enhancement

4.8.6.1 During the year, NDDB assisted dairy cooperatives to develop and deliver appropriate services in villages, in areas of animal breeding, nutrition and health-care, leading to improved productivity of dairy animals and an increase in farmers net income. 4.8.7 Animal Breeding

4.8.7.1 About 75 lakh frozen semen doses had been produced by the eight cooperative owned and two NDDB managed Semen Production Stations till November 2003. Under the artificial insemination programme, the cooperative milk unions covered about 28,500 villages and performed about 54.2 lakh inseminations using good quality genetic material. About 222 veterinarians from 26 milk unions were trained in a special programme designed to improve their skills in fertility management. 4.8.7.2 NDDB has initiated a project on buffalo genome in collaboration with the Centre for Cellular and Molecular Biology (CCMB), Hyderabad. The joint research would lead to a linkage map of the buffalo genome. The map will be used for Marker Assisted Selection of the buffalo for economic traits. 4.8.8 Animal Nutrition & feed technology

4.8.8.1 NDDB continued to provide advisory services to cooperative cattle feed plants to ensure the production of balanced cattle feed as per BIS specifications.
32

The services included quality testing of raw materials and finished products, providing technical advice to cattle feed plants and training their personnel in plant operations, quality control aspects and least cost computerised feed formulation. 4.8.8.2 NDDB has standardised the technology and process to produce bypass protein meal. Efforts are on to set up bypass protein plants in different parts of the country for commercial production of bypass protein feed. 4.8.8.3 Extension activities are being undertaken by NDDB through its regional and state offices along with the field staff of dairy cooperative unions/federations to popularise the concept of ration balancing to reduce cost of milk production. Computer software to compute ration for dairy animals using locally available raw material resources is being developed by NDDB, for use at the village level. 4.8.9 Animal Health

4.8.9.1 NDDB endeavoured to reduce the incidence of enzootic and epizootic diseases in animals by facilitating the cooperative milk unions to implement measures like first aid, deworming and intensive vaccination against foot and mouth disease, haemorrhagic septicaemia, black quarter and anthrax. NDDB also facilitated the unions to undertake Mastitis Control Programmes and Brucellosis Control Programmes. The foot and mouth disease control project for the state of Kerala is in the final stage of planning and would be jointly implemented by the Government of Kerala and NDDB. 4.8.9.2 The experimental batches of Infectious Bovine Rhinotracheitis vaccine developed by NDDB are undergoing trials. The existing vaccine, Brucella abortus S19, used for brucellosis control the world over has limitations of being applicable only to female calves and at times, leading to diagnostic ambiguity. Attempts are being made to develop a brucellosis vaccine by identifying and passaging rough mutant of Brucella abortus. 4.8.10 Managing Quality

4.8.10.1 For improving the quality of milk from dairy cooperative societies, initiatives were taken up at the village level in house keeping, sanitation and society management, besides bulk milk chilling interventions and rapid transportation of milk to dairy plants. Milk producers, DCS secretaries and management committee members as well as transporters were given orientation in clean milk production practices. 4.8.10.2 During the year about 7000 more village level cooperative societies were covered under the clean milk production programme, taking the cumulative total to 19,000. Besides, around 100 bulk milk coolers, 2215 automatic milk collection units and 2000 electronic fat testers were installed and commissioned at the village level cooperative societies. 4.8.10.3 Efforts to achieve plant efficiency through energy management programmes and bring about improvement in plant operations with focus on plant

33

hygiene and sanitation continued during the year. So far, 70 dairy and cattle feed plants have obtained ISO certification, 54 dairy plants have HACCP and five have Environment Management certifications. Energy conservation activities have been undertaken in dairy plants of milk unions in Karnataka, Kerala, Punjab and Rajasthan to bring about savings in energy bills. 4.8.11 Building a National Information Network

4.8.11.1 During the year, the Internet based Dairy Information System was streamlined and made more user friendly to facilitate unions to upload data in the system at a faster pace. 4.8.11.2 NDDB has prepared a uniform village specific database covering 55 milksheds, 84 districts, over 70,000 villages and 140 lakh households in the 10 states that were included under a special project for village enumeration. After analysis of this database, a synthesis report was prepared highlighting important parameters like milk production, consumption, surplus availability, ownership equity of milch animal population and classification of villages according to production and disposition of surplus. 4.8.12 DGIS Orientation & Implementation

4.8.12.1 Dairy Geographical Implementation System (DGIS) was implemented in seven cooperative milk unions: Bhagirathi, West Bengal; Moradabad and Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh; Bhilwara, Rajasthan; Nalgonda, Andhra Pradesh; Shimoga and Bangalore, Karnataka. This included the complex tasks of digitising the location of the village procurement societies, chilling centres/dairy plants as well as milk procurement routes in the milksheds. The village enumeration data was also integrated into the system. Further, training was given to union staff in analysis of monthly milk procurement data of unions obtained through the DGIS. 4.8.13 Projects

4.8.13.1 NDDB continued to provide technical assistance to various cooperative milk unions across the country to add new processing infrastructure as well as expand and upgrade the existing facilities on turnkey or consultancy basis. 4.8.13.2 Till December 2003, nine turnkey projects and two consultancy projects were completed. Notable among them were expansion of Kolar Dairy from 200 to 250 tlpd capacity, expansion of Manipal Dairy from 20 to 50 tlpd capacity, a new dairy of 100 tlpd capacity at Islampur for Walwa Union and 16 combined (milk and fruit & vegetable) shops for Mother Dairy Fruit & Vegetable Ltd, Delhi. 4.8.14 Product Development

4.8.14.1 During the year, work was initiated to standardise the processing parameters of indigenous products: palada payasam and makhana kheer. Technology for long life paneer was transferred to the Jaipur Milk Union, Rajasthan. New varieties of ice creams in cup, stick, cone and extruded form were standardised and launched in the Delhi market through Mother Dairy, Delhi. The

CHAPTER 5
FISHERIES 5.1 Introduction

5.1.1 Fisheries sector occupies a very important place in the socio-economic development of the country. It has been recognized as a powerful income and India now is 4th largest employment generator as it stimulates growth of producer of fish in the world and a number of subsidiary industries and is a second largest producer of fresh water fish in the world. source of cheap and nutritious food besides The fish production being a foreign exchange earner. Most during 2002-03 is estimated to be importantly, it is the source of livelihood for a 60.50 lakh tones. large section of economically backward A network of 429 Fish Farmers Development Agencies population of the country. The main challenges (FFDAs) sanctioned covering all the facing fisheries development in the country have potential districts in all the States been in assessment of fishery resources and and Union Territory of Pondicherry. During 2001-02 about their potential in terms of fish production, 32,544-hectare water area brought development of sustainable technologies for fin under scientific fish farming and shell fish culture, yield optimization, harvest through FFDAs. 48,296 fish farmers/ and post-harvest operations and landing and fishermen trained in improved berthing facilities for fishing vessels. practices during 2001-02 & 5.1.2 In the marine sector fishing is predominantly a fishermen oriented activity. However, women have played an important role in the fisheries sector, and in the emerging scenario of fisheries and aquaculture development, they have a much larger role to play. Women represent the largest workforce in terms of number, engaged in fish vending, net making and processing. Women are also engaged in the processing, marketing and allied activities. The concerted efforts are being made to extend assistance to fishermen cooperatives under various schemes and programmes being implemented by the Department. Efforts are also being made to enhance enrollment of fisherwomen with the fishery cooperative societies to enable them to avail benefits under various schemes/programmes of the Department. 5.2 Thrust Areas
benefited about 59,937 persons.

5.2.1 Fisheries is a State subject and as such the primary responsibility for development rests with the State Governments. The major thrust in fisheries development has been on optimizing production and productivity, augmenting export of marine products, generating employment and improving welfare of fishermen and their socio-economic status. 5.2.2 For achieving accelerated growth and enhancing production and productivity of fish and marine products, 17 plan schemes were implemented during 9th Plan. The two schemes namely, Assistance to Coast Guard and World Bank Aided Project on Shrimp and Fish Culture were discontinued after 9th Plan on the recommendation of the Planning Commission. It has been decided to merge the remaining schemes into six major schemes for Tenth Plan as a sequel to the Zero
40

Based Budget exercise for convergence/ merging/ macro-management and on the recommendations of the Working Group on Fisheries. National Scheme on Welfare of Fishermen and Central Sector Scheme on Training and Extension are now being implemented. The Scheme on Inland Fisheries Statistics has been revised and renamed as Strengthening of Database and Information Networking for the Tenth Plan. The existing schemes on Development of Freshwater Aquaculture and Establishment of Fishing Harbours and Fish Landing Centres, which are being merged with other components under macro-management mode, are also being continued during the current year. The on-going six schemes are as follows: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 5.3. Development of Inland Fisheries and Aquaculture Development of Marine Fisheries, Infrastructure and Post Harvest Welfare Programme for Fishermen Fisheries Training and Extension, including Human Resources Development Assistance to Fisheries Institutes Strengthening of Data-base and Information Networking Development of Inland Fisheries and Aquaculture

5.3.1. The ongoing Centrally Sponsored Schemes of i) Development of Freshwater Aquaculture and ii) Integrated Coastal Aquaculture have been combined with four new components and renamed as "Development of Inland Fisheries and Aquaculture". The scheme has the following components:a) b) c) Development of Freshwater Aquaculture Development of Brackishwater Aquaculture Development of Coldwater Fisheries and Aquaculture in the Hilly Regions d) Development of Water-logged Areas into Aquaculture Estates e) Utilization of Inland Saline/Alkaline Soils for Aquaculture f) Inland Capture Fisheries (Reservoirs/Rivers etc.) 5.3.2. The aforesaid scheme has been approved by the Expenditure Finance Committee (EFC) and approval of Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs (CCEA) is being solicited. 5.3.3 Development of Freshwater Aquaculture 5.3.3.1 Development of freshwater aquaculture is one of the most important production oriented programmes of the Government of India being implemented by the States/UTs as a centrally sponsored scheme through Fish Farmers Development Agencies (FFDAs) from 1973-74 onwards. The main objectives of the Scheme are to popularize fish farming, creating employment opportunities, diversifying aquaculture practices and provide assistance to fish farmers with a view to create a cadre of trained and well organised fish farmers with a view to create a cadre of trained and well organized fish farmers fully engaged in aquaculture. 5.3.3.2 A network of 429 Fish Farmers Development Agencies (FFDAs) have been sanctioned for establishment under this programme covering all the potential districts in all the States and Union Territory of Pondicherry. Most of the FFDAs
41

operate at district level and some at regional/State level where the district level resources are inadequate. 5.3.3.3 In order to boost inland fish production, assistance in the form of subsidy is given to the fish farmers for construction of new ponds, reclamation/renovation of ponds and tanks, first year inputs (fish seed, fish feed, fertilizers, manures, etc.), integrated fish farming, running water fish culture, establishment of fish seed hatcheries and fish feed mills, etc. Assistance is also given to progressive fish farmers for purchase of aerators to further enhance the productivity of fish. Subsidy for the above-mentioned activities is given at the higher rates to fish farmers of scheduled tribes/scheduled castes. Subsidy also provided for freshwater prawn seed hatchery, laboratory, soil & water testing kits, integrated units for ornamental fish, transportation of seed in hilly areas. The expenditure towards developmental activities is being shared on 75:25 basis between the Government of India and State/UT Governments whereas entire administrative expenditure is met by the State/UT Governments. 5.3.3.4 During 2002-03, additional area brought under fish culture was about 22,979 ha (provisional). Fishers trained in improved practices were about 27,210 numbers (provisional) during the same period and the scheme has benefited about 37,045 (provisional) persons. During 2003-04, additional area of 30,000 ha and training of 20,000 fishers is the target under the programme. Due to introduction of improved technology of fish farming and the efforts of FFDAs, the national average productivity of ponds and tanks covered under the programme is about 2200 kg/ha/annum. 5.3.4 Development of Brackishwater Aquaculture

5.3.4.1 A centrally sponsored scheme on Integrated Coastal Aquaculture for the development of brackishwater areas in the country was in operation during the Ninth Plan. The scheme was discontinued in the beginning of the Tenth Plan on the advice of the Planning Commission. However, considering the importance of the brackishwater fishery resources, it has been decided to continue the programme as one of the components under the macro-management during Tenth Plan, as indicated above. 5.3.4.2 With a view to provide technical, financial and extension support to shrimp farmers in the small scale sector, 39 Brackishwater Fish Farmers Development Agencies (BFDAs) have been sanctioned in all the coastal states and the UT of Andaman & Nicobar Islands. During 2002-03, an additional area brought under shrimp culture was about 570 ha (provisional). Fishers trained in improved practices of shrimp culture were about 340 numbers (provisional) during the same period. The performance of the scheme was tardy due to legal intervention (Supreme Court Judgement of December, 1996) prohibiting non-traditional shrimp culture activities within the Costal Regulation Zone i.e. 500 m from the high tide line. The matter is still sub-judice. During 2003-04, an additional area of 2000 ha and training of 1000 fishers is the target under the programme.

Concerned ICAR Institutes and respective State Governments were involved in implementation of the projects. An amount of Rs. 659.35 lakh was released to the State Governments under the above pilot projects. 5.3.6.2 Considering the importance of aforesaid inland fishery resources in the country, it has been decided to continue these programmes as regular components under the Centrally Sponsored Scheme on Development of Inland Fisheries and Aquaculture during the Tenth Five Year Plan. 5.4. Development of Marine Fisheries

5.4.1 Motorisation of Traditional Craft 5.4.1.1 This production oriented scheme was introduced during 7 th Plan with the objective of technical upgradation of traditional fishing sector in order to help the fishermen to reduce their physical strain and top extend the range of their fishing operation which would help to increase their fish catch and income. Under this scheme 50% of the cost of engine is provided as subsidy subject to a maximum of Rs.10,000/- per Out Board Motor(OBM) and Rs.12,000/- per in Board Motor(IBM) which is shared by the Centre and State equally. In case of UTs the entire cost of subsidy and engine is met by the Centre. 5.4.1.2 During 2001-02 about 2700 crafts were sanctioned to be motorised with a central subsidy of Rs. 140.37 lakhs with cumulative achievement of about 37950 crafts sanctioned upto 2001-02. During 10th Plan, a component on motorisation of traditional craft with enhanced subsidy of Rs. 20,000 for an OBM has

43

been proposed for implementation. The total outlay for the 10th Plan proposed is Rs. 13 crores. 5.4.2 Reimbursement of Central Excise Duty on HSD Oil supplied to mechanised fishing vessel below 20M length 5.4.2.1 This Scheme was introduced from 1990-91 onwards with a view to help the small mechanised fishing owners/operators to bring down the operational cost of their vessels and thereby to encourage them to increase the fishing days, fish catch and income. The cost of central excise duty on HSD oil @ Rs.351.75 per KL is fully subsidized under the scheme which is shared on 80:20 basis between the Centre and States and met fully by the Centre in the case of States which have exempted sale tax fully on HSD oil and UTs. A sum of Rs.673.84 lakhs was released under the scheme during 2001-02 towards Central share of reimbursement cost to benefit about 18000 small-mechanised fishing vessels below 20M under the scheme. 5.4.2.2 A Scheme called Fishermen Development Rebate on HSD has been proposed in the 10th Plan with an outlay of Rs.100 crores. The EFC has approved the scheme on Development of Marine fisheries, Infrastructure and Post Harvest operations and approval of CCEA is being solicited. 5.4.3 Enforcement of Marine Fishing Regulation Act acquisition of patrol boats 5.4.3.1 This scheme was launched during 1993-94 onwards in order to assist the coastal State/UT in the effective enforcement of the MFRA. Under the scheme 100% central grant-in-aid is provided for purchase of patrol boats for carrying out surveillance in the territorial waters. Under the scheme 8 coastal states were sanctioned 26 patrol boats. The total central grant released so far was Rs.2478 lakhs. The Scheme has been discontinued. 5.4.4 During the 10th Plan under the Macro Management approach, the following new components are proposed to be implemented which are awaiting approval of the competent authority. (i) (ii) (iii) Introduction of intermediate craft with improved design. Safety of fishermen at sea. Resource specific deep sea fishing vessels (including VMS).

5.4.5 Development of Deep Sea Fishing 5.4.5.1 On the basis of the new Guidelines issued by the Department during November, 2002, regarding permitting Indian flag vessels in the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ), 13 numbers of Indian companies were issued with letter of permissions (LOPs) for 38 numbers of resource specific vessels till date. A revised Comprehensive Marine Fishing Policy is under finalization.
