Maharashtra’s Response to AgricultureMaharashtra’s Response to AgricultureHistorical PerspectiveHistorical Perspective

• First State to adopt Dry Land Farming Technology.

• Pioneer in Horticulture Development through EGS to promote

higher income & more employment in farming sector

• State Seed Corporation – First farmers company in seed sector

• Pioneers in Co-operative network

– Sugar factories, Dairies,Water user association.

• Corporate Horticulture Company

• Very effective & Research based Farmers Organisations

Major Emerging Concerns

• Un-viable farming

• Lack of diverification in Crops & Other activities in Vidarbha &

Marathwada

• Land locked areas in Marathwada & Vidarbha

– Lack of infrastructures, markets, roads, railway rake points, airport

• Infrastructural Bottle necks
