Principal Secretary, AgricultureProduction Department, Navin K.Choudhary, today convened an offi-cers meeting to ensure speedy prepa-ration of proposals and projects underrecently announced Pradhan MantriAatma Nirbhar Bharat Scheme.
It was informed that under thescheme, the Government of India hasannounced Rs.1 lakh crore financingfacility for funding Agriculture Infra-structure Projects at farm-gate andaggregation points (Primary Agricul-tural Cooperative Societies, FarmersProducers Organisations, Agricul-ture entrepreneurs, Start-ups, etc).
The Principal Secretary observedthat lack of adequate cold chain andPost Harvest Management Infra-structure in the vicinity of farm-gate iscausing gaps in value chains. Whilefocus has been on short term croploans, the investment in long termagriculture infrastructure has beenneglected, he added.
The Principal Secretary directed allHoDs to identify infrastructure re-quirements in terms of equipments,machinery, structure like cold chains,cold storages, transportation infra-structure etc. which could be coveredunder this scheme for funding.
Choudhary informed that follow-ing the vision of Prime Minister of In-dia, “Vocal for Local with Global out-reach”, the Government of India has
also announced launch of Rs.10,000crore scheme for formalization of Mi-cro Food Enterprises (MFE) to help 2Lakh MFEs. The goal is to providetechnical upgradation to unorga-nized MFE units to attain FSSAI foodstandards, build brands and market-ing, he added.
It was informed that under thescheme, the existing Micro Food En-terprises, Farmer Producer Organi-sations, Self Help Groups and Coop-eratives are to be supported. Thecluster based approach (e.g. Mangoin UP, Kesar in J&K, Bamboo shootsin North-East, Chilli in AndhraPradesh, Tapioca in Tamil Nadu etc.)will be given priority. The expectedoutcome is improved health andsafety standard, integration with retailmarkets, improved income of farm-ers, reaching untapped export mar-kets in view of improved health con-sciousness.
Accordingly, Principal Secretarydirected that identification of varioustypes of MFEs in Agriculture, Horti-culture, Dairy and Poultry sectors tobe covered with identified infrastruc-ture support to make them achieve
the goal under this scheme.It was also decided that the Fish-
eries Department will support in re-moval of critical gaps in Fisheriesvalue chain through private sector.Cage Culture, Seaweed farming, Or-namental Fisheries as well as newfishing vessels, traceability, labora-tory network etc. will be key activi-ties.
Choudhary directedAnimal/Sheep Husbandry Depart-ment to immediately frame proposalto ensure 100% vaccination of cattle,buffalo, sheep, goat and pig popula-tion (total 53 crore animals) for Footand Mouth Diseases (FMD) and forbrucellosis. Animal Husbandry De-partment was also directed to getprepared proposals from private en-trepreneurs to support private in-vestment in Dairy Processing, valueaddition and cattle feed infrastruc-ture.

This is an extremely beneficialscheme launched by GoI for J&K.Under this scheme, 50% subsidy ontransportation of Agri/Horti producewill be allowed. Similarly, 50% sub-sidy will be available for storage in-cluding cold storages. This will bene-fit the farmers as they would now findit attractive to keep their perishableproduce in cold storages at half costs,he added.
