Sl.
No
Issues / Suggestions
1
Rate of Assistance for distribution of seeds under subsidy
may be increased from Rs. 2000/- per qtl to Rs. 5000/- per qtl
in case of Hybrid rice seed.
The Assistance rate for distribution of HYV rice seeds may be
increased from Rs. 500/- per qtl to Rs. 1000/- per qtl.
The Rate of Assistance for distribution of Pulse seeds under
subsidy may be increased from Rs.1200/- per qtl to Rs. 5000/per qtl.
2
Due to low availability of certified pulse seeds, utilization
of TL seeds may be permitted.
3
Attempts are being taken up to popularize the Mini Dal
Mill for value addition to the produce of the pulse farmers.
4
Amount of assistance for 100 ha cluster DC may be
enhanced
