## STATEMENT  REFERRED  TO  IN  REPLY  TO  PARTS  (a)  TO  (d)  OF  LOK  SABHA STARRED QUESTION NO.121 REGARDING 'COMPENSATION TO HORTICULTURE FARMERS' DUE FOR REPLY ON 09 TH  DECEMBER, 2025

(a)  to  (d):    As  per  the  National  Policy  on  Disaster  Management  (NPDM),  the  State Government is primarily responsible for providing necessary relief measures on ground level in the wake of notified calamities. The State Governments undertake relief measures in the wake of natural calamities from funds available in the form of the State Disaster Response Fund (SDRF) in accordance with the Government of India approved items and norms.  Additional  financial  assistance,  over  and  above  SDRF,  is  considered  from  the National Disaster Response Fund (NDRF) for natural calamities of 'severe nature' and is approved  on  the  basis  of  a  Memorandum  received  from  the  State  Government,  in accordance with established procedures. The financial assistance provided under SDRF and NDRF is by way of relief and not for compensation.

On receipt of Memorandum from the State Government, an Inter-Ministerial Central Team (IMCT) is constituted and deputed for an on-the-spot assessment of damage and requirement of funds for relief operations, as per the extant items and norms.   The report of the IMCT is considered by the Sub Committee of National Executive Committee (SCNEC) headed by the Secretary (Ministry of Home Affairs in case of floods etc) /Secretary (Department of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare in case of drought, pest attack, hailstorm and cold wave)).  Thereafter, the High Level Committee (HLC) headed by Home Minister comprising Finance  Minister, Agriculture  Minister  and  Vice-Chairman,  NITI  Aayog considers the request of the State Government based on the recommendations of SCNEC. The HLC approves the quantum of additional assistance from NDRF which is made available to the State and is subject to the adjustment of the balance available in the State's SDRF.

As per Sl. No. 5 of Revised Items & Norms of assistance from SDRF and NDRF, issued by Ministry of Home Affairs, dated 11.07.2023, relief is provided as input subsidy (where crop loss is 33% and above) for agriculture crops,  annual plantation  crops  and horticulture crops to affected farmers (up-to 2 hectare) due to notified calamities, which are given as under:

(i) Rs.8500/- per ha in rainfed areas (which is subject to minimum assistance of not less than Rs. 1000/- per farmer and restricted to sown areas).

- (ii)  Rs.17000/-  per  ha.  in  assured  irrigated  areas  (which  is  subject  to  minimum assistance of not less than Rs.2000/- per farmer and restricted to sown areas).

(iii)  Rs.22500/-  per  hectare  for  all  types  of  perennial  crops/trees  including  agroforestry (plantation in own farmland) and restricted to sown areas.

Details  of  Allocation/  Release  under  SDRF/NDRF  (including  Centre  and  State Share) state-wise including Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh& Dadar & Nagar Haveli during the last five years, is at Annexure-I .  As far as Dadar & Nagar Haveli is concerned, no release were done as low crop losses were reported in the last five years.

The  Government  implements  yield-based  Pradhan  Mantri  Fasal  Bima  Yojana (PMFBY) and weather index based Restructured Weather Based Crop Insurance Scheme

(WBCIS)  from  Kharif  2016  to  provide  financial  support  to  farmers  suffering  crop loss/damage arising out of natural calamities, adverse weather incidence and to stabilize the income of farmers etc. The comprehensive risk insurance is provided from pre-sowing to post-harvest losses only to the ensured farmers under the scheme.

The State wise details including Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh & Dadar & Nagar Haveli of farmers enrollment and claims paid from 2020-21 to 2024-25 under Pradhan Mantri  Fasal  Bima  Yojana  (PMFBY)  and  Restructured  Weather  Based  Crop  Insurance Scheme (RWBCIS) is at Annexure-II.

Mission for Integrated Development of Horticulture (MIDH) is a Centrally Sponsored Scheme which is being implemented w.e.f. 2014-15 for holistic growth of the horticulture sector  covering  fruits,  vegetables,  root  and  tuber  crops,  mushrooms,  spices,  flowers, aromatic plants, coconut, cashew, cocoa and bamboo. All States including North Eastern states and UTs are covered under MIDH.

Under Mission for Integrated Development of Horticulture (MIDH) Guidelines, there is no provision for compensation for Horticulture Crops damaged due to flood, drought or other natural calamities. However, under MIDH assistance is provided earlier to various States in the form of Special Package to overcome the losses caused due to flood, drought or other natural calamities as per the cost norms of MIDH Guidelines.
