- (d)&(e) Yes Sir. India Meteorological Department (IMD) runs an operational Agrometeorological Advisory Service (AAS) viz., Gramin Krishi Mausam Sewa (GKMS)scheme for the benefit of farming community in the country. Under the scheme, medium range weather forecast at district level is generated and based on the forecast, Agromet

Advisories are prepared and communicated by the 130 Agromet Field Units (AMFUs)located at State Agricultural Universities, institutes of ICARand liT etc., to the farmers on every Tuesday and Friday to take decision on day-to-day agricultural operations. AAS rendered by IMD is a step towards weather-based crop and livestock management strategies and operations dedicated to enhancing crop production and food security besides reducing crop damage and loss due to unusual weather.

IMDis planning to implement block level Agromet Advisory Services shortly in collaboration with Indian Council of Agriculture Research (ICAR) in the country. District Agromet Units (DAMUs) are being established in Krishi Vikas Kendra (KVKs) under ICAR network. Implementation of block level AAS would address the micro-level variation in weather andclimate and hence more numbers of farmers will be benefitted.

Agromet Advisories are communicated to the farmers through multichannel dissemination system like print and electronic media, Doordarshan, radio, internet etc. as well as by SMS using mobile phones through Kisan Portal launched by Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers' Welfare and through private companies under Public Private Partnership (PPP)mode. At present, 42 million farmers in the country receive the Agromet Advisories through SMSdirectly. Krishi Vigyan Kendras (KVKs)of ICARhave also given link to the respective district level advisory in their web portal. A mobile App viz., 'Meghdoot' has been launched by Ministry of Earth Sciences, Government of India recently to help the farmers to get the weather information and related agromet advisories specific to their districts.
