KASHMIR CENTRIC FOOD SECURITY VISION
1, THE CROPPING SCENARIO
By prof DR GHULAM MOHYUDDIN WANI
This array of a articles shall be Jammu as well as Kashmir rural enlargement centric. It might have exercise in a little or a alternative of a articles in this as well as alternative websites.It is written for a Jammu as well as kashmir state though might have relevence for a sum universe too,espacilly identical ecosystems.
INTRODUCTION
Higher capability gains can be completed by concentration of record as well as prolongation recommendations during farmer’s field. We have 65% tiny as well as extrinsic farmers whose recognition intensity is low. The prolongation complement prevalent with these farmers is a churned tillage or combination farming. In contrariety to USA as well as European civilised universe a prerequisite is to enlarge “Crop opportunities” RATHER than COMODITY prolongation gains.
MIXED FARMING MODULES ARE OUR NEED
A churned Agriculture University as well as Education set ups is a necessity. We have been during benefaction starting erroneous to a need. Quick as well as quick measures have been indispensable to harmonize a tutorial system, involving all civilised universe as well as compared disciplines, industries, corporate sectors as well as farmers’ institutions.
GREEN REVOLUTION DAYS
It is worth referring to that Indian Agricultural honour years of immature series post 1968 saw rebate in food benefit imports as well as subsequently white, blue as well as alternative revolutions postulated a race pressures as well as civilised universe growth. Our rural enlargement rate needs to be subsequent to if not some-more to race enlargement rate (PGR). Our AGR target ought to be stand in a PGR. This is critical as expenditure rates, purchasing energy as well as practice /income prospects increase.
FOOD GRAIN SECURITY
An estimated food pellet of 210 million tons during benefaction might need to be doubled in subsequent 10 years. We have to grasp aloft targets of capability by straight enlargement as plane land enlargement is not possible. a target of 4 t/h of rice or wheat shall have Jammu as well as kashmir self enough ,a food confidence bottom shall need 5t/h.On an normal you have 2-3 t/h rice as well as marginally reduction wheat prolongation in a state. Combining vegetables ,fruits as well as alternative pulses you might be partially softened off in a future. The per capita food pellet expenditure is marginally some-more than rest of a Indian state since of serious cold as well as some-more calorie are needed.
EXPERIEMENTAL YIELDS
Under a initial stages as well as even underneath initial trails of miniskirts a altogether capability in rice ranges in in between 5-6t/h, wheat 3-4 t/h, maize 3-5 t /h .The initial rise furnish of 8-10 t /h with a little varieties was reported.The alternative sum have been reported Wani, 2007.and is accessible upon this website too. The enlarge in furnish of paddy , from 1947 to 2009 have been aggregation from 40-50 kegs a kanal (i/8th of an hactare as well as magnitude of land in J& K )to turn 350 to400 kgs a kanal.This feat has been probable underneath positive irrigation systems with make make make make make make make use of of of of of of of of both biological, organic as well as containing alkali fertilizers. Organic experiments done underneath a organisation in an IVLP devise showed aloft prolongation of 2 q per hectare with shift of a wooden smash into to an iron smash into called as Shalimar plough.The make make make make make make make use of of of of of of of of fertiliser both plantation back yard as well as immature have marked down a containing alkali manure make make make make make make make use of of of of of of of as well as increasing productivity.Due to reduction than 1/10th of manure make make make make make make make use of of of of of of of than endorsed or that used in Punjab you have been softened off in JAMMU AND KASHMIR specifically during depot ends in a alpine regions.We can without delay swithch to a organic tillage of all dry fruits as well as vegetables onward with,
COMMERCIAL CROPS
Commercial crops similar to mushroom,honey,flouriculture,dairy farming ornithology as well as sheep for beef production have an extensive intensity for a development.The nautical as well as timberland unfeeling along with of march growm medicinal underbrush as well as spices have a trememdous marketplace as well as mercantile viability.The bee gripping as polinizers as well as even around dal ,wular as well as alternative lakes have a extensive intensity of producing iodine abounding sugar that can fetch exorbant prices in a universe marketplace as well as can be used by a thyroid scarcity as well as gout patients.
DISEASE RESISTANT LOCAL GENOTYPE
A varieties of loca vegetables that grow of their own upon a naked timberland as well as alternative bunds as well as nomams kand called nunar is abounding in iron.Many alternative self growm weeds make make make make make make make use of of of of of of of as many appropriate as well as nutririve vegetables can be a many appropriate dirt binders as well as providers of organic,rainfed vegetative cover to a naked as well as eroded lands upon tip of livestitritive cock provender as well as tellurian as well as bad supplying nourishment await for a nomaids as well as a tribials.There have been a series of a internal genotype that grow of their own in a dry ,wet as well as marshy lands .A consecutive DNA Mappling is indispensable to know their intensity as well as supplying nourishment value.There civilised universe as well as propagation shall give a ready done organic .sustianable as well as low submit bottom as well as food security.The mapping shall exhibit their properties as well as a single can devise as well as generate them,One such indication for a excellent cashmere temperament goats was run by a writer with cultivatable formula for a sum pashmina industry,This try referred saved a profitable gene pool,This gene pool was alternative correct being widely separated with Russian as well as Mongolian bred DON goats.The cranky tact was stopped by a writer as well as to illustrate recorded a gene pool of a low yielder though excellent hole giats from cranky breeding.Similar attempts to safety as well as safety a internal vegetable,rice,ffruit as well as bulb mfishmanimal gene pools have been to be recorded as well as softened by biotechnological use.
Seed multiplication
We have grown many mildew resistant as well as tall agreeable varieties, in paddy during rice investigate centre during Khodwani.The seed computation is delayed as well as needs a correct state-central, icar-skuast convergence, that has not been stirring for problems during peak level.A process preference has to be done to implement a accessible rural as well as compared connoisseur to lift private-public partnership mode seed banks.We need 10,000 quintals of paddy seed alone per annum.We employed all a land accessible underneath a KVK complement though were frequency equates to to furnish a couple of hundred quintals of a paddy seed.The in isolation –public organisation as well as partnership as well resulted in extrinsic than a estimable increase.The usually resolution to yield a seed tillage land is a inundate channels accessible for dual in between 3 years,The SRI IS A PROPOSITION nonetheless to be attempted in a state.Alternatively let us make make make make make make make use of of of of of of of these inundate channels as well as implement a impoverished connoisseur to strap seed tillage revolutions in a state of Jammu as well as Kashmir.The usually risk of inundate is once in 5 years that can be postulated by a enlarge or a word cover accessible for such ventures.A sectional prudent formulation can even turn aside these risks too.
NATIONAL LEVEL PLANNING
. Likewise prolongation of 100 million tonnes of wheat from twenty-five million hectares needs a capability of 4t/hac.Jammu as well as Kashmir is 1/100 th of a country, Thus you need a single million ton of wheat as well as rice any to feed a a single crore population. Our race enlargement is slower than a rest of a states .purchasing energy is softened than a normal rancher or a chairman in India. We a target to stand in a per hectare capability needs some-more technical manpower in extension, attention as well as during sum base level. The meridian disasters, earthquakes, Titanic tsunami, floods; have influenced a rural prolongation in a past as well as one some-more mandate needs to be kept in thoughts whilst formulation food security. We need to enlarge per capita expenditure expenditures of Rs. 600 per month. We need to overpass a gaps in in between intensity as well as tangible yields during farmers’ level. The containing alkali tillage hazards of bad dirt fertility, low H2O availability, wickedness as well as environmental concerns block a rural development. Thus polished technology, participatory investigate as well as tutorial modules have been needed. The brand brand brand brand new pressures of tellurian marketing. World traffic as well as price tag regulations have to be accommodated. This all will need union of brand brand brand brand new themes similar to post-harvest management, worth addition, packaging, communication, as well as credit as well as marketplace inform services in a march curricula. Thus a brand brand brand brand new multidimensional shift in tutorial curriculum is envisaged.
“We feel honour in job ourselves as a 2nd largest Agricultural Research System (ARS) in a world. When you examination a performance, you have been nowhere in tip 10 of many cited civilised universe publications in a world. The USA tops a universe list with 3, 62, 79,842 cited publication/annum, with tiny nation similar to Switzerland during No.10. The systematic outlay in civilised universe is top in USA with twenty-seven lakh publication/year followed by Japan, Germany, U.K, France, Canada, Italy, Russia, China as well as Australia. Our grant to Agriculture announcement is 5.48% usually with a share of reference during 2.32%. This final some-more concentration upon Quality Assurance. Our budding bulletin should be quality, Accreditation, Desired Knowledge, Assessment, Skill as well as cunning office office building as well as tutorial audit. Quality declaration equates to strengthening resources, inform as well as upkeep of tutorial infrastructure. Thus you need to umpire grants as well as Centre-State family rationally,” pronounced a organisation of experts compared with a writer of this report.
ICAR GRANT SYSTEM
We have Central Agricultural Universities as well as 200 ubiquitous Universities, with 48 rural faculties. The sum disciplines wanting grants might be strengthened in 5 yrs by 1core grants to any fortify for peculiarity assurance. We furnish 10,000 underneath graduate, 5500 post graduates as well as 1600 Ph.D. in civilised universe each years. They supplement to a stagnation pool. For creation them self-employees in brand brand brand brand new ventures as well as for increasing employment, they need cunning office office building in tellurian economics as well as traffic policies.
