## ANSWER

MINISTER OF AGRICULTURE AND FARMERS WELFARE कृ षि एवं ककसान कल्याण मंत्री (SHRI ARJUN MUNDA)

(a): Government  has  been  promoting  organic  farming  in  the  country  since  2015-16 through  dedicated  and  exclusive  schemes  of  Paramparagat  Krishi  Vikas  Yojana  (PKVY) and Mission Organic Value Chain Development for North Eastern Region (MOVCDNER). Both the schemes stress on end-to-end support to farmers engaged in organic farming i.e. from production to processing, certification and marketing and post-harvest management. Training and Capacity Building are integral part of the schemes. Incentives to farmers for producing and using organic fertilizers/manure are inbuilt in these schemes as on-farm and off-farm organic inputs.  Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) is provided to the farmers for using organic  inputs  including  organic  fertilizers  which  in  turn  helps  the  organic  fertilizers producing farmers in big way. PKVY is being implemented in all the States other-than North Eastern  States  across  the  country  whereas  MOVCDNER  scheme  is  being  implemented exclusively in the NE States.

## Salient features of the PKVY Scheme:

-  To  promote  natural  resource  based  integrated  and  climate  resilient  sustainable farming  systems  that  ensure  maintenance  and  increase  of  soil  fertility,  natural resource  conservation,  on-farm  nutrient  recycling  and  minimize  dependence  of farmers on external inputs;
-  To  reduce  cost  of  agriculture  to  farmers  through  sustainable  integrated  organic farming systems thereby enhancing farmer's net income per unit of land.
-  To sustainably produce chemical free and nutritious food for human consumption.
-  To  protect  environment  from  hazardous  inorganic  chemicals  by  adoption  of  ecofriendly low-cost traditional techniques and farmer friendly technologies.
-  To bring large contiguous traditional/ default organic areas under organic certification and empowering the farmers of such areas with market linkages;
-  To facilitate certification access to individual and small farmer groups not covered by any scheme.
-  To  empower  farmers  through  their  own  institutional  development  in  the  form  of clusters and groups with capacity to manage production, processing, value addition and certification management in value chain mode;
-  To make farmers entrepreneurs through direct market linkages with local and export trade houses/ chains.
-  Ensuring  professional  handholding  for  transforming  so  developed  cluster  into business enterprises for better value realization of their premium organic produce

## Salient features of the MOVCDNER Scheme:

-  To  replace  conventional  farming/subsistence  farming  system  into  local  resource based, self sustainable, high value commercial organic enterprise.
-  To  develop  crop  commodity  specific  organic  value  chain  and  address  gaps  in organic  crop  production,  wild  crop  harvesting,  organic  livestock  management  and processing handling and marketing of organic agricultural products through:
- i. Developing crop specific organic production clusters with necessary infrastructural, technical and financial support
- ii. Facilitating  partnerships  between  farmers  and  organic  businesses:  Local enterprises  and  /  or  Farmer  Producer  Companies  based  on  back-to-back long-term trade relations with clients in domestic and export markets.
- iii. Providing enabling environment  for project initiatives  and  development programs with  necessary  support  for  organic  value  chain  development  and create market access.
-  To  replace  conventional  farming/subsistence  farming  system  into  local  resource based, self sustainable, high value commercial organic enterprise.
-  Developing  commodity  specific  commercial  organic  value  chain  under  integrated and  concentrated  approach  with  end-to-end  facilities  for  production,  processing, storage and marketing

(b): The PKVY and MOVCDNER Schemes are being implemented for development of sustainable  models  of  organic  farming.  PKVY  is  a  Centrally  Sponsored  scheme  being implemented in a cluster mode through State Governments and the activities are carried out on the same area and by the same beneficiaries for a 3 year period for certification from conventional to organic. Under the PKVY scheme, the Central and state Government share the funding in varying ratio. It is 100% in Union Territories (UT), 90:10 in Hilly States and 60:40 in case of all other States.

MOVCDNER is a sub-Scheme of umbrella scheme of Krishonnati Yojana where the funding is 100% by the Central Government.

Since the launch of scheme in 2015-16, the targets have been given to States in three  phases  (Phase-I  from  2015-16  to  2017-18,  Phase-II  from  2018-19  to  2020-21  and Phase-III  from  2020-21  to  2022-23).    Since  it  takes  3  years  for  an  area  to  be  declared organic,  the allocation  of  target  made  in  a  particular  year  remains  the  same for 3  years. Hence the  target  and  achievement  for  PKVY  have  been  provided  as  per  Phases  of  the scheme (Phase I, Phase II & Phase III). The phase wise target and achievement under PKVY are given in Annexure-I.

The phase wise target and achievement under the MOVCDNER Scheme are given in Annexure-II.

(c): Under PKVY there is provision of assistance @ Rs.7500/ha for 3 years for training and  capacity  building  of  farmers  on  organic  production  whereas,  under  MOVCDNER Rs.10000/ha for 3 years is provided for training and hand holding of farmers for capacity building on organic production.

Since both the schemes of PKVY and MOVCDNER are implemented through the State Government, the details of farmers given hands on training about on farm production to  marketing  of  organic  produce  along-with  latent  mode  technique  are  available  with  the States Government/ UTs.

The State-wise and year-wise details of funds release under PKVY & MOVCDNER scheme including training and capacity building of farmers on organic production are given at Annexure- III & IV .

National Center of Organic and Natural Farming (NCONF) and its Regional Center of  Organic  and  Natural  Farming  located  at  Ghaziabad,  Nagpur,  Bangalore,  Imphal  and Bhubaneswar are organizing  various  HRD  trainings  namely  One Day  Farmers'  Training, Two  Days  Training  for  Extension  Officers/Staff,  Two  Days  Training  on  PGS,  30  Days

Certificate course, One day Jaivik evam Prakratik Kisan Sammelan, One Day Stakeholder consultations/  conferences  on  Natural  Farming,  Orientation  Program  on  Natural  Farming and awareness programmes across the country to disseminate information on organic and natural farming as well as on- farm production and use of various kinds of organic and biofertilizers.  NCONF  and  RCONF  also  organize  online  awareness  campaign  and  training programmes on organic and natural farming and production and use of organic and biofertilizers. The state- wise various training imparts by NCONF during the last five years is given at Annexure- V.

(d) to (f): Under  the  PKVY  scheme,  farmers  are  provided  financial  assistance  of  Rs 31000/  ha  for  3  years  through  DBT  for  on-farm  and  off-farm  organic  inputs  including manure. No such demand has been received from any stakeholder for increasing the DBT amount for on-farm and off-farm organic inputs including manure.
