## ANSWER

MINISTER OF  STATE IN THE  MINISTRY OF  AGRICULTURE AND  FARMERS  WELFARE ‡ãðŠãäÓã एवं किसान िल्याण ½ãâ¨ããÊã¾ã ½ãñâ Àã·¾ã ½ãâ¨ããè ( SHRI MOHANBHAI KUNDARIYA )

- (a) to (c): Yes,  Madam,  the  Government  provides  assistance/subsidy  for  seed production  and  distribution  of  high  yielding  seeds  to  farmers  including  farmers  living below poverty line at reasonable rate through various crop development programmes/schemes. The details are at Annexure-I.

To upgrade the quality of farm saved seed, financial assistance for distribution of foundation/certified  seed  @  50%  cost  of  the  seeds  for  cereals  crops  and  60%  for pulses,  oilseeds,  green  manure  and  fodder  crops  is  provided  under  Seed  Village Programme.  The  details of State-wise funds released and number  of farmers covered/benefited  are  at  Annexure-II.  Subsidized  fertilizers  like  urea,  Di  Ammonium Phosphate(DAP), Muriate of Potash(MOP), NPK complexes are available to all farmers.

During 2015-16 Government launched the Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchai Yojana (PMKSY)  to  improve  access  to  irrigation  and  mitigate  risk  of  farmers  by  providing assured irrigation, viz.

-  Accelerated Irrigation Benefit Programme (AIBP) to focus on faster completion of ongoing Major and Medium Irrigation including National Projects.
-  PMKSY (Har Khet Ko Pani) : Source  augmentation, distribution,  ground  water development, lift irrigation, diversion of water from water plenty to water scarce areas, supplementing rain water harvesting beyond  Integrated  Watershed Management Programme (IWMP) & MGNREGA, repair, restoration, renovation of traditional water bodies.
-  PMKSY  (Per  Drop  More  Crop):  Micro  level  storage  structures,  efficient  water conveyance and application, precision irrigation systems, topping up of input cost beyond MGNREGA permissible limits, secondary storage, water lifting devices, extension activities, coordination and management.
-  PMKSY  (Watershed):  Ridge  area  treatment,  drainage  line  treatment,  soil  and moisture  conservation,  water  harvesting  structure,  livelihood  support  activities and other watershed works.

The  PMKSY scheme under its  various  components  envisages  to  enhance  the irrigation facilities in an area of 28.5 lakh ha. from 2015-16 to 2019-20.

The Government of India has no scheme to provide electricity to the farmers at low prices.

- (d): No, Madam.
