## (SHRI S.S. AHLUWALIA)

- (a) There  are  645  Krishi  Vigyan  Kendras  (KVKs)  functioning  in  the  country  aiming  at assessment  and  demonstration  of technologies/products under different  agro-ecosystems developed by the National Agricultural Research System of the country. The State-wise and location-wise  details  of  the  districts  having  KVKs  are  given  at Annexure-I. The State-wise details of major tasks assigned and completed by these KVKs during the last three years and the current year are given in Annexure-II.
- (b) Yes,  Madam.  The  details  of  monitoring  and  review  mechanism  of  KVKs  include holding  of  Scientific  Advisory  Committee  (SAC)  meetings,  Annual  State  and    Zonal Workshops,  Activity Specific Training-cum-Workshops,  site  visits by the Directors of Agricultural Technology Application Research Institutes (ATARIs), Directorates of Extension

of Agricultural Universities and ICAR Headquarters; Annual National Conference, linkage and convergence  meetings  /discussions  and  review  by  Quinquennial  Review  Team  (QRT).  The outcome  based  on    monitoring  and  review  activities  undertaken  during  the  last  three  years includes  development  and  execution  of  improved  and  need  based  annual  action  plans; compilation of technology inventories, preparation of technology manuals, books, bulletins and extension literature in print and electronic form;  development and organization of programmes for capacity building and technology backstopping; human  resource development  and knowledge empowerment; and  sharing of innovative models and experiences of technology application mechanisms.

(c) As far as irregularities and shortcomings in the functioning of KVKs are concerned, it was found that functioning of KVK, Guntur, Andhra Pradesh has been affected due to dispute amongst the management of the Host Organization which is sub-judice. The KVK, Nanded, Maharashtra  had  some  administrative  issues  concerning  use  and    maintenance  of  KVK infrastructure,  holding  of  scientific  advisory  committee  meetings  regularly  and  procedural lapses in maintenance of records for which corrective measures were suggested and the same have  now  been  followed.    Complaints  have  been  received  alleging  irregularities  related  to ownership of land, recruitment of staff and functioning of KVK, Unnao, Uttar Pradesh. As per report of a fact finding committee, the issues raised in the complaints along with the issue of appointment of relatives were examined and the host organization of the KVK has been asked to  mortgage  the  land  on  which  KVK  has  been  sanctioned,  besides  furnishing  of  Indemnity Bond. As regards to KVK at Jamui district of Bihar, there is a dispute regarding ownership of the  land  between  the  two  related  organizations  and  a  committee  has  been  constituted  for investigating the issue. However, the functioning of the KVK has not been affected. Further, host institutions have been advised to fill the vacant positions of staff in KVKs.

(d) Yes,  Madam.  To  modernise  and  improve  the  functioning  of  KVKs,  Government  has approved  for  creation  of  some  additional  facilities  in  selected  KVKs  including  rain  water harvesting;  soil  and  water  testing  facilities;  minimal  processing  facilities;  carp  hatcheries; integrated farming system units; and e-linkage facilities during 12 th Five Year Plan. The new initiatives  taken  to  revitalize  KVKs  include  provision  of  technology  information  units;  mini seed processing facilities; 25 KVA silent genset; micro-nutrient analysis facilities; provision of solar  power  panels,  vKVK  and  KVK-Net,  e-farmers;  and  mandating  some  of  the  KVKs  to work as specialized KVKs. The details of earmarked funds and the number of KVKs selected for strengthening with such facilities are given in Annexure -III .

(e) No, Madam. There is no exchange programme organized by KVKs for deputing farmers to  foreign  countries.  However,  the  KVKs  organize  exposure  visits  of  farmers  within  and outside state. These visits facilitate interaction of farmers with the researchers, scientists, farm innovators,  entrepreneurs,  etc  for  getting  ideas  about  the  new  technology/enterprise/products and enable them for cross learning. These visits also expose farmers to the latest technologies generated  by  Agricultural  Universities  and  ICAR  Institutes.    It  opens  new  horizons  of knowledge to the farmers by 'Seeing is believing' process.  Besides, the discussions during visits  among  fellow  farmers  help  in  building  confidence  for  adoption  of  new  technologies offered to them.

For  strengthening  KVKs  during  12 th Five  Year  Plan,  Government  has  approved  for enhanced manpower, infrastructure facilities and financial support for working contingency to carry-out the mandated role of frontline extension system in the country.
