At the outset, Sri. B. Rajsekhar, IAS., Spl. Chief Secretary

(Agriculture) & Member Secretary, SLSC, RKVY-RAFTAAR while

welcoming the Chairman and members to the meeting, has informed that

the present meeting is proposed to sanction project proposals of

Agriculture and Allied sectors under RKVY-RAFTAAR for the year

2018-19.

The Spl. Chief Secretary (Agriculture) explained the agenda wise items

during the meeting.

1. Progress during 2017-18

It was informed that an amount of Rs. 349.81 Crores has been

allocated including sub schemes to Andhra Pradesh under RKVY during

2017-18. Out of which, an amount of Rs. 347.00 Crores has been

released.


2

It was informed that an expenditure of Rs. 172.09 Crores has been

incurred by different sectors and the balance amount of Rs. 174.91

Crores would be incurred within one month as sectors already have

committed expenditure.

The Utilization Certificate for Rs. 172.09 Crores (Centre: Rs. 103.26

Cr. + State : Rs. 68.83 Cr.) is already submitted to Govt. of India.

2. Approval of project proposals for the year 2018-19

It was informed that Govt. of India has allocated an amount of

Rs. 195.05 Crores as Central share (60%) for implementation of Regular

RKVY-RAFTAAR during 2018-19. The total allocation after adding the

state share (40%) is Rs. 325.07 Crores.

It was also informed that an amount of Rs. 7.42 Crores has been

allocated for implementation of 3 Special sub schemes as central share

and after adding the state share the allocation under Special sub

schemes is Rs. 12.37 Crores.

o Regular RKVY : Rs. 325.07 Crores

o Spl. Sub schemes : Rs. 12.37 Crores.

allocation for the State is decreased over previous year, the State share

in Country allocation has been increased. The State accounts for 6.9%

in Regular RKVY and 5.6% in total RKVY including Spl. Sub schemes in

the Country allocation, which is higher than previous year i.e. 5.1%

and 4.4% respectively.

The Chief Secretary enquired the reasons for decreasing the

allocation for the State under RKVY and opined that Govt. should give

priority for Agriculture sector and should not decrease allocations for

Agriculture schemes.

The Joint Secretary, Govt. of India has clarified that the Country

allocation under RKVY-RAFTAAR is reduced to Rs. 3600 Crores during

2018-19 from Rs. 4750 Crores during 2017-18, as GoI is giving priority

for other schemes like Crop Insurance.

Further, the Joint Secretary, GoI has informed that most of the Spl.

Sub Scheme funds are meant for Bringing Green Revolution to Eastern

India (BGREI) of North Eastern States.

The Joint Secretary, GoI has also informed that the continuation of

RKVY-RAFTAAR has been approved upto 2019-20 which co-terminus

with 14th Finance Commission and advised to propose those projects

which could be completed by 2019-20.

The Spl. Chief Secretary (Agriculture) has informed that project

proposals of different sectors have been screened in the State Level

Project Screening Committee Meeting under his Chairmanship. After

The objectives are focused to benefit the farmers of the region. However, the total cost

of the project is worked out wrongly as Rs. 93 lakhs

whereas break-up indicates total cost of Rs. 136.00 lakhs. The details of the cost

estimates may be provided such as items of processing

units, size & brief specifications of processing unit and the building. The university may be

requested to re-submit the proposal after suitable modifications / corrections /

details. It is not recommended in its present form. AMI The

relates to value addition to a raw agriculture produce which, after processing, doesn’t result

in change of product form. For Primary processing activity, the

project is supported and assistance @25% is available under AMI sub-scheme of

ISAM. In view of above, paddy processing unit is eligible for

assistance @ 25%. Since, the item-wise break-up of the plant and machinery and the

activity/component is not specified in the project. Therefore the subsidy couldn’t

be calculated.

observations are made: 1.

Under proposed sub-head 'executive summary', 'strategy' and 'target beneficiaries', the

proposers of the project have mentioned that apart from entomopathogens such as

Bacillus thuringiensis, Beauveria bassiana, Nomuraea

rileyi against insect pests, they will also target for isolation of effective strains of

Pseudomonas and Trichoderma for the management of soil

borne diseases of groundnut, but no such study has been mentioned in objectives of the

project. Also, there is no plant pathologist associated with the project. 2. It is not clear that

how the identification of different strains will be made.

Molecular characterization of the strains can either be done by the expertise available at the

RARS or through outsourcing. 3. Under sub-head 'Risk

analysis' bio-safety evaluation is proposed. As such, no such study is proposed under the

objectives of the project. 4.

Commission.


11

Under sub-head 'Evaluation'

the proposers of the project have mentioned that "The data on field evaluation at RARS,

Tirupati is completed for the isolates which were proved effective in lab studies such as

dual culture technique against disease causing fungi such as

Sclerotium, Aspergillus niger and A.flavus and laboratory bioassay studies for Bt, N.rileyi

and B.bassiana." lf such study has already been completed

then why are they proposing the objectives for the same study? Why can't they take

effective strains from their previous studies and make further advancement towards

development of effective formulations and generating

data for registration with CIB&RC. 5. Under the sub-head 'Finance' under non-

recurring contingencies Rs 45 Lakh is proposed for purchase

of Insect Culture racks, BOD incubators, shakers, water bath, pH meter, Microwave

oven, Refrigerators, growth

chamber for insects,

humidifiers, RT-PCR, Geldoc Heating block, minis pin, UV Spectrophotometer,

micropipettes, Trinocular Stereo zoom Microscope with image analyzing soft ware, fire

extinguishers, vacuum cleaner, inverters, centrifuge, exhaust

fans, Laminar air flows, Air Conditioners, grinder cum mixer etc., which seems to be

infeasible under proposed budget, if the equipments of

standard make are purchased. The proposed project needs to be rewritten with clear

objectives with achievable targets in given time frame and reasonable budget.

various functional groups

13

related to insecticides,

fungicides and herbicides have been standardized by the proposers of the project. lt is

noteworthy that, so far, 279 pesticides have been registered. Therefore, target must be fixed

for development of residue analysis protocol for reasonably

good numbers of pesticides in 3 years. 2. Target for minimum number of samples of different

crops to be analysed year-wise must be fixed. 3. The role of

proposed equipment GC with EAG in residue laboratory is not clear. However, for quality

analysis of pheromone or other bio_active compounds, such equipment may be allowed for

purchase. 4. Based on the data generated from different

regions/ villages on residue of the pesticides in different crops, focused training

programme should be organized for general

awareness of all the stakeholders as proposed under the point no. 5 of

objective of the project. ln view


14

of the rampant use of

pesticides and their health hazard to the human being due to residual effects, there is

urgent need to strengthen the pesticide residue analysis programme in the country. ln

order to cater the need of the Royalaseema Zone of Andhra

Pradesh, the project may be approved with the incorporation of the above

observations/ suggestions.

objectives which are considered to be achievable within the

proposed duration of time. 4. The modus operandi is not clear as there is no mention

that for feasibility trials how much area will be covered,

what will be the number of beneficiaries, number of demonstrations to be carried

out. Similarly it lacks the information on deployment of solar power needed for lifting

the water from perennial source. Since these details

would determine the cost it is suggested that before funding these be furnished. 5. Expected

outcomes are practical and can be achieved by proper
