FOOD SECURITY IN INDIA .
The growth in food grain production has stagnated during recent past while the consumption need of the growing population is increasing.
To meet the growing foodgrain demand, National Development Council in its 53rd meeting adopted a resolution to enhance the production of rice, wheat and pulses by 10, 8 and 2 million tons respectively by 2011.
The proposed Centrally Sponsored Scheme ‘National Food Security Mission (NFSM) is to operationalize the resolution of NDC and enhance the production of rice, wheat and pulses.
NEED FOOD SECURITY MISSION ?
• The scheme to be implemented in a mission mode through a farmer centric approach
• All the Stakeholders to be actively associated at the District levels for achieving the set goal.
• The scheme aims to target the select districts by making available the improved technologies to the farmers through a series of planned interventions.
• A close monitoring mechanism proposed to ensure that interventions reach to the targeted beneficiaries.
KEY FEATURES OF NFSM
Increasing production of rice, wheat and pulses through area expansion and productivity enhancement in a sustainable manner.
Restoring soil fertility and productivity at individual farm level.
Enhancing farm level economy (i.e. farm profits) to restore confidence of farmers of targeted districts
1 Expansion of area of Pulses and Wheat, No expansion of area in rice
2. Bridging the yield gap between the potential and the present level of productivity through
• Acceleration of seed production • Integrated Nutrient Management and Integrated Pest
Management • Promotion of new production technologies like hybrid rice,
timely planting of wheat and promotion of new improved variety of Pulses.
• Supply of input ensuring their timely availability• Farmers Training and Visits

RICE:- Demonstration of improved technology including
hybrid and System of Rice Intensification (SRI) Promotion of mechanical weeders and other farm
implements Extension, training and mass media campaign Awards for best performing district in each State.WHEAT:- Providing subsidy on diesel pumpsets and
community generators for irrigation Promotion of micronutrient use in deficient areas Assistance for innovative interventions at local level.PULSES:- Increasing seed replacement rate to 25% from
present level of 7-8% Promotion of sprinkler irrigation. Integrated Nutrient Management (INM)
• Funds for the Mission’s programmes to be directly released to the State Food Security Mission (SFSM) agency after approval by the National Executive Committee.
• State Mission agency would ensure implementation of the programmes, in a time-bound manner and would make available funds to the District level implementing agency in accordance with their approved programmes.
• Funds would be released in installments based on
progress reports and furnishing of utilization certificates
The NFSM will be monitored by National, State and District Executive Committees
The Project Management Team would be constituted at District, State and national level to assist in the monitoring and implementation of the program.
Mission Director at National and State level will be assisted by Project Management Team in implementation and monitoring.
The Department of Economics and Statistics to be involved in data collection for monitoring and impact evaluation.
National Food Security Mission-Rice Districts Covering more than 50,000 ha area under rice The productivity is less than the State average productivity.
National Food Security Mission-Wheat Districts with sizeable area under wheat Districts having irrigation to a great extent The productivity is less than national/state average.
National Food Security Mission- Pulses The districts selected based on potential for area expansion
through inter-cropping / fallow land.
During the Eleventh Plan (2007-08 to 2011-12) a fund requirement of Rs. 4882.48 crores is estimated.

Concurrent evaluation will be done every
year. The State Department of Economics and Statistics to be responsible for conducting this evaluation
In the 3rd year, a mid-term evaluation at the National Level will be undertaken through an independent agency
An Impact Evaluation Study at the National Level will also be undertaken through an independent agency after the 5th year of implementation
Information communication technology will be used for monitoring and evaluation of the Mission.
Location and the list of beneficiaries for Farmers’ Field School to be approved by DFSMEC.
There will be a season long training of the farmers in their fields once in a week.
Demonstration plots/fields of the programme will be used as training points in FFS.
There will be one FFS for every 1000 ha of area. Two Facilitators from Government of India and ICAR Institutes, will run each FFS.
The number of farmers will be limited to 30 only for each FFS.

Government intends to move towards a nutrient
based subsidy regime instead of the current
product pricing regime. It will lead to availability
of complex fertilizers in the market at
reasonable prices.
Capital Expenditure, other than expenditure on
land, goodwill and financial investments on Cold
storage will be tax deductible.
