## (SHRI GAJENDRA SINGH SHEKHAWAT)

(a) & (b): Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) has overall 103 institutions  (Research  Institutes  68,  Bureau  6,  Directorates  14  and  National  Research Centres 15) and 81 All India Coordinated Research Projects (AICRPs)/Network Projects (NPs) in the areas of field and horticultural crops, animal species, Fisheries, Engineering, Natural resources management and several other areas of research that are in operation spreading  all  over  the  country  including  rural  and  backward  areas.  The  funds  are allocated project/scheme-wise and not the institute or state wise as some of the schemes are running in more than one state which are running under these Institutions. The state wise list of the ICAR Institutes is given in Annexure-I , List of AICRPs/NPs is given in Annexure-II and  the  details  regarding  the  expenditure  incurred  by  the  Government on the research centres is given in enclosed as Annexure-III.

(c) & (d): Yes, Madam.

-  The  ICAR  has  played  a  pioneering  role  in  ushering  Green  Revolution  and subsequent developments in agriculture in India through its research and technology development that has enabled the country to increase the production of food grains by 5 times , horticultural crops by 9.5 times , fish by 12.5 times , milk 7.8  times and eggs  39  times  since  1951,  thus  making  a  visible  impact  on  the national food and nutritional security. The research efforts of the Institutes/Centres/AICRPs have led to the development and released of 672 high yielding,  stresses  (biotic  &  abiotic)  tolerant  varieties/hybrids  in  different  field crops  for  cultivation  under  different  agro-climatic  conditions  during  2014-2017. Approximately,  350514  quintals  of  breeder  seeds  of  improved  varieties  of  field crops  and  18.5  lakh  grafted  plants,  12  lakh  rooted  cuttings  and  tuber  crops,  90 tonnes  of  breeder/truthfully  labelled  seeds  of  vegetable  crops,  5500  tonnes  of breeders  seed  of  potato  and  tropical  tuber  crops  were  produced  and  distributed during  2014-15  to  2016-17  for  sustaining  the  effective  seed  chain  in  the  states. These varieties and improved management practices have contributed significantly in increasing the production in field crops e.g. the production of total food grain increased from 252.02 million tons in 2014-15 to 275.68 million tons in 2016-17. In  case  of  individual  commodity  also  the  increased  production  is  recorded  like, rice  production  has  increased  from  105.48  million  tonnes  in  2014-15  to  110.15 million tonnes in 2016-17, wheat production increased from 86.52 million tonnes in 2014-15 to 98.38 million tonnes in 2016-17. Similarly the research achievements in pulses led to the increase in pulses production from 17.15 million tonnes in 2014-15 to 22.95 million tonnes in 2016-17. The vegetable production increased from 166.6 million tonnes in 2014-15 to 176.2 million tonnes in 20162017. Similarly fruits production increased from 89.5 million tonnes in 2014-15 to 93.7 million tonnes in 2016-2017.
-  During the last 3.5 years ICAR developed and released 13 improved poultry, pig and sheep varieties/breeds which include; 4 backyard poultry: Kamrupa in Assam, Narmadanidhi  in  MP,  Jharsim  in  Chhattisgarh  and  Himsamridhi  in  HP;  8  pig varieties:  HD-K75,  Rani  and  Asha  in  Assam;  Jharsuk  in  Jharkhand;  Mannuthy White in Kerala; Lumsniang in Meghalaya; TANUVAS KTM Gold Crossbred Pig (Large White Yorkshire x Desi) in Tamil Nadu and 'SVVU-T 17 Crossbred Pig', (Large  White  Yorkshire  x  Desi)  in  Telangana  besides  one  prolific  and  high producing breed of sheep 'Avishan'
-  To  increase  productivity,  reduce  cost  of  cultivation,  reduce  drudgery,  improve value  addition,  conserve  resources  and  provide  alternate  means  for  energy generation  through  improve  farm  mechanisation,  ICAR  developed  72  new  farm equipment/machines/gadgets and 34 new products/ process protocols and supplied over 16500 prototypes of agricultural machinery to farmers/ entrepreneurs. Due to these  efforts  steady  growth  has  occurred  in  adoption  of  efficient  manually operated tools, animal operated implements, and equipment operated by

mechanical and electrical  power sources in the country. ICAR trained 710 rural youth for establishing Custom Hiring Centres in different parts of the country out of  which  652  entrepreneurs  established  Custom  Hiring  Centres.  ICAR  equipped 194 startup companies and agri-entrepreneurs by providing necessary training and skills to start their new agri-ventures.

-  ICAR has developed and validated 623 district contingency plans and conducted skill development programs for 40.9 lakh farmers. Mridaprarikshak a minilab for soil  analysis  developed  to  support  Government's  initiative  of  Soil  Health  Card. ICAR  has  also  developed  45  Integrated  Farming  Systems  (IFS)  models  in  23 states  and  1  Union  Territory  covering  all  the  15  agro-climatic  regions  of  the country.  These  models  were  tested  and  further  validated  in  the  fields  of  1250 farmers  each  under  various  different  agro  ecologies  covering  23  states  of  the country.
-  For delivering the benefits of research to the farmers, the ICAR has established a network  of  681  Krishi  Vigyan  Kendras  (KVKs)  in  the  country.  Through  this network the technologies/ products being evolved are demonstrated by organizing various  extension  programmes  like  farmers  fair,  Krishi  Mahotsav,  exhibitions, exposure visits, animal check-up camps and diagnostic and advisory services for soil, water and infected plant samples and also training of farmers to update their knowledge and skill. These programmes have also benefited the farmers in terms of increased crop production and improved farm income.
-  For  strengthening  the  Government's  initiative  on  Bringing  Green  Revolution  to Eastern  India,  a  new  Indian  Agriculture  Research  Institute  (IARI)  has  been established  at  Barhi,  Jharkhand  on  the  lines  of  IARI,  PUSA,  New  Delhi  and another IARI is being established in Assam,  Rajendra Agricultural University has been upgraded to Dr. Rajendra Prasad Central Agricultural University,  six new colleges opened under Central Agricultural University, Imphal, National Research Centre  for  Integrated  Farming  established  in  Motihari  (Bihar)  and  National Organic Farming Research Institute established in Tadong (Sikkim). Besides this, ICAR established six new Regional Research Stations in MP, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh,  Gujarat  and  West  Bengal.  Financial  support  has  been  extended  to Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, and Haryana Governments for the establishment of new Agriculture and Horticulture Universities.

A new, state of the art Phonemics Facility has been created at ICAR-IARI, New Delhi.  International  fellowships  for  Ph.D.  programmes  in  frontier  areas  of  agricultural sciences  were  given  to  105  young  scientists  to  train  them  in  the  identified  best laboratories of the world. The  research collaboration with various national and international  agencies  including  CG  Centres  strengthened,  a  new  scheme  of  Emeritus Professor with 100 positions initiated and the slots for emeritus scientists doubled from 50 to 100 and the honorarium enhanced from Rs. 25,000 to Rs. 50,000 per month. To attract  and  retain  talent  in  agriculture  sciences,  a  new  National  Talent  Scholarship  has also been introduced for PG students from 2016-17.
