Book excerpt: There is a general impression that the agriculture sector has not been doing well that holds good for the country as a whole and more prominently for any part of the North East India (NEI). Considering the importance of agricultural development, the nation has been initiating a plethora of policies and strategies under the purview of green revolution since a couple of decades aiming at raising yield rates of agricultural produce that to be equipped with water-seed-fertilizer-pesticide-technology approach. Such approach was considered facilitating source for agricultural mechanization thereby raising yield rates. The ever-growing population and ever-declining agricultural holdings posed to restrict the transformation of agriculture sector for fostering economic development that resulted emerging of this approach. It is undenying and has been established that irrigation is the pre-condition for transforming agriculture through such approach whereby yield rates can be raised manifold.However, the performance of agriculture is not being found up to the mark in general, even in particular to the areas where government has created irrigation facilities. Such phenomenon gives rise to the need of assessing irrigation potential created and search the reasons behind static condition of agriculture particularly in irrigated areas. To induct such issue in grassroots, a micro level study is adopted. Therefore, a study entitled 'Irrigation Potential and Transformation of Agriculture: A Case Study of Deosila Minor Irrigation Project of Goalpara District, Assam' is adopted.The paper seeks to assess the irrigation potential created, its functioning and to search the restricting factors for farm mechanization on the basis of secondary and primary information.

Download or read book Indian Agriculture after the Green Revolution written by Binoy Goswami and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-10-10 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From a country plagued with chronic food shortage, the Green Revolution turned India into a food-grain self-sufficient nation within the decade of 1968-1978. By contrast, the decade of 1995-2005 witnessed a spate in suicides among farmers in many parts of the country. These tragic incidents were symptomatic of the severe stress and strain that the agriculture sector had meanwhile accumulated. The book recounts how the high achievements of the Green Revolution had overgrown to a state of this ‘agrarian crisis’. In the process, it also brings to fore the underlying resilience and innovativeness in the sector which enabled it not just to survive through the crisis but to evolve and revive out of it. The need of the hour is to create an environment that will enable the sector to acquire the robustness to contend with the challenges of lifting levels of farm income and coping with Climate Change. To this end, a multi-pronged intervention strategy has been suggested. Reviving public investment in irrigation, tuning agrarian institutions to the changed context, strengthening of market institution for better farm-market linkage and financial access of farmers, and preparing the ground for ushering in technological innovations should form the major components of this policy paradigm.
