&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Farmers in drought hit districts in this unusually heavy rains monsoon season will get a diesel subsidy of Rs 500 per hectare, agriculture minister Sharad Pawar announced here on Friday at the start of the National Conference on Rabi Campaign, even as the Centre awaits bumper crop production for most key Kharif crops including paddy, pulses, coarse cereals and sugarcane. Oilseeds are the only crop where acreage is lower than normal and production is expected to be less than normal. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;A good monsoon and prospects of a good Kharif and Rabi have sobering effect on prices and will impact on the persistent double digit food inflation. Mr Pawar stressed in his address&amp;quot;The most effective way to keep prices under control is ensuring adequate availability through higher production and productivity to meet the requirement of increasing population with increasing income.&amp;quot; Rs 500 crore have been earmarked for the diesel subsidy to help affected farmers prepare for Rabi sowing expenses but expectations are that actual spends may be much lower. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Interestingly, Mr Pawar left the key question on whether sugar sector decontrol would be on schedule for the 2010-11 season starting October open, holding that a decision would be taken only after sugar producer states got back to the Centre by mid October. Meantime, he down pegged sugar production estimates for the year from 23mt+ earlier to &amp;quot;over 22mt&amp;quot; today. That is much lower compared to the 25mt estimate by the Indian Sugar Mills Association (ISMA) and the 25-28mt estimate of Kingsman S A, which held its annual sugar conference here recently. The issue was referred to the state governments at the behest of the PM despite a big pitch by Mr Pawar to clinch the decontrol decision imminently. In and indication of increasing confidence, however, the food ministry okayed the export of 6 lt of imported sugar recently. Raw sugar exports of some mills were also allowed today. The FMC, meanwhile, is set to permit commodity exchanges to re start futures trading in sugar in October when they apply for it, on expectations of a good sugar output in 2010-11. The ban expires in end September. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;&amp;quot;Some of the oilseeds acreage has been diverted to pulses in key states on account of higher support prices for pulses,&amp;quot; agriculture secretary Mr P K Basu told ET. The bright side is that global edible oil prices have been tempered and ample is available, unlike pulses, the other big commodity imported annually to meet home demand. In addition, the bumper paddy crop could help the Centre decide on finally lifting the export ban on non Basmati rice in force for several months now. The actual numbers on acreage and estimated production, however, will only be come in by next week and the farm ministry is expected to release the first advance estimates for the season after. Paddy acreage has dropped, accordign to inputs to the Centre today, in Bihar, Jharkhand and W Bengal. The last, among the top producers, has an acreage drop of over 7% compared to last year. However, Haryana has brought in more farmland under paddy. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;&amp;quot;Every farmer will get Rs 500 per hectare as diesel subsidy,&amp;quot; Mr Pawar said. The Centre has earmarked Rs 500 crore for the spends on some 78 districts countrywide that are affected including 11 in West Bengal, 28 out of 38 in Bihar and and all of 24 districts in Jharkhand. Of these, the Bihar elections are imminent and W Bengal polls are due next year. However, the spends may not actually be that high. In Kharif last year when a similar scheme was announced, key farm producer states Punjab and Haryana that use mostly electricity refused the scheme while Bihar picked up only around Rs 1.5 crore. Only Tamil Nadu availed of the scheme to the tune of Rs 22 crore. The Centre, however, had to spend around Rs 1200 crore on power subsidy in both Punjab and Haryana. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;The heavy rains this monsoon in several parts, especially in September, helped the paddy crop especially and is expected to boost water levels and soil moisture for the coming Rabi crop, sowing for which starts next motnh. A bumper Rabi production is expected. Agriculture sector utilises 80 percent of the water, there is immediate need for improving water use efficiency.&lt;/font&gt;

&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Farmers in drought hit districts in this unusually heavy rains monsoon season will get a diesel subsidy of Rs 500 per hectare, agriculture minister Sharad Pawar announced here on Friday at the start of the National Conference on Rabi Campaign, even as the Centre awaits bumper crop production for most key Kharif crops including paddy, pulses, coarse cereals and sugarcane. Oilseeds are the only crop where acreage is lower than normal and production is expected to be less than normal. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;A good monsoon and prospects of a good Kharif and Rabi have sobering effect on prices and will impact on the persistent double digit food inflation. Mr Pawar stressed in his address&amp;quot;The most effective way to keep prices under control is ensuring adequate availability through higher production and productivity to meet the requirement of increasing population with increasing income.&amp;quot; Rs 500 crore have been earmarked for the diesel subsidy to help affected farmers prepare for Rabi sowing expenses but expectations are that actual spends may be much lower. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Interestingly, Mr Pawar left the key question on whether sugar sector decontrol would be on schedule for the 2010-11 season starting October open, holding that a decision would be taken only after sugar producer states got back to the Centre by mid October. Meantime, he down pegged sugar production estimates for the year from 23mt+ earlier to &amp;quot;over 22mt&amp;quot; today. That is much lower compared to the 25mt estimate by the Indian Sugar Mills Association (ISMA) and the 25-28mt estimate of Kingsman S A, which held its annual sugar conference here recently. The issue was referred to the state governments at the behest of the PM despite a big pitch by Mr Pawar to clinch the decontrol decision imminently. In and indication of increasing confidence, however, the food ministry okayed the export of 6 lt of imported sugar recently. Raw sugar exports of some mills were also allowed today. The FMC, meanwhile, is set to permit commodity exchanges to re start futures trading in sugar in October when they apply for it, on expectations of a good sugar output in 2010-11. The ban expires in end September. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;&amp;quot;Some of the oilseeds acreage has been diverted to pulses in key states on account of higher support prices for pulses,&amp;quot; agriculture secretary Mr P K Basu told ET. The bright side is that global edible oil prices have been tempered and ample is available, unlike pulses, the other big commodity imported annually to meet home demand. In addition, the bumper paddy crop could help the Centre decide on finally lifting the export ban on non Basmati rice in force for several months now. The actual numbers on acreage and estimated production, however, will only be come in by next week and the farm ministry is expected to release the first advance estimates for the season after. Paddy acreage has dropped, accordign to inputs to the Centre today, in Bihar, Jharkhand and W Bengal. The last, among the top producers, has an acreage drop of over 7% compared to last year. However, Haryana has brought in more farmland under paddy. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;&amp;quot;Every farmer will get Rs 500 per hectare as diesel subsidy,&amp;quot; Mr Pawar said. The Centre has earmarked Rs 500 crore for the spends on some 78 districts countrywide that are affected including 11 in West Bengal, 28 out of 38 in Bihar and and all of 24 districts in Jharkhand. Of these, the Bihar elections are imminent and W Bengal polls are due next year. However, the spends may not actually be that high. In Kharif last year when a similar scheme was announced, key farm producer states Punjab and Haryana that use mostly electricity refused the scheme while Bihar picked up only around Rs 1.5 crore. Only Tamil Nadu availed of the scheme to the tune of Rs 22 crore. The Centre, however, had to spend around Rs 1200 crore on power subsidy in both Punjab and Haryana. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;The heavy rains this monsoon in several parts, especially in September, helped the paddy crop especially and is expected to boost water levels and soil moisture for the coming Rabi crop, sowing for which starts next motnh. A bumper Rabi production is expected. Agriculture sector utilises 80 percent of the water, there is immediate need for improving water use efficiency.&lt;/font&gt;

Oilseeds are the only crop where acreage is lower than normal and production is expected to be less than normal. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;&lt;font &gt;A good monsoon and prospects of a good Kharif and Rabi have sobering effect on prices and will impact on the persistent double digit food inflation. Mr Pawar stressed in his address&amp;quot;The most effective way to keep prices under control is ensuring adequate availability through higher production and productivity to meet the requirement of increasing population with increasing income.&amp;quot; Rs 500 crore have been earmarked for the diesel subsidy to help affected farmers prepare for Rabi sowing expenses but expectations are that actual spends may be much lower. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;&lt;font &gt;Interestingly, Mr Pawar left the key question on whether sugar sector decontrol would be on schedule for the 2010-11 season starting October open, holding that a decision would be taken only after sugar producer states got back to the Centre by mid October. Meantime, he down pegged sugar production estimates for the year from 23mt+ earlier to &amp;quot;over 22mt&amp;quot; today. That is much lower compared to the 25mt estimate by the Indian Sugar Mills Association (ISMA) and the 25-28mt estimate of Kingsman S A, which held its annual sugar conference here recently. The issue was referred to the state governments at the behest of the PM despite a big pitch by Mr Pawar to clinch the decontrol decision imminently. In and indication of increasing confidence, however, the food ministry okayed the export of 6 lt of imported sugar recently. Raw sugar exports of some mills were also allowed today. The FMC, meanwhile, is set to permit commodity exchanges to re start futures trading in sugar in October when they apply for it, on expectations of a good sugar output in 2010-11. The ban expires in end September. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;&lt;font &gt;&amp;quot;Some of the oilseeds acreage has been diverted to pulses in key states on account of higher support prices for pulses,&amp;quot; agriculture secretary Mr P K Basu told ET. The bright side is that global edible oil prices have been tempered and ample is available, unlike pulses, the other big commodity imported annually to meet home demand. In addition, the bumper paddy crop could help the Centre decide on finally lifting the export ban on non Basmati rice in force for several months now. The actual numbers on acreage and estimated production, however, will only be come in by next week and the farm ministry is expected to release the first advance estimates for the season after. Paddy acreage has dropped, accordign to inputs to the Centre today, in Bihar, Jharkhand and W Bengal. The last, among the top producers, has an acreage drop of over 7% compared to last year. However, Haryana has brought in more farmland under paddy. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;&lt;font &gt;&amp;quot;Every farmer will get Rs 500 per hectare as diesel subsidy,&amp;quot; Mr Pawar said. The Centre has earmarked Rs 500 crore for the spends on some 78 districts countrywide that are affected including 11 in West Bengal, 28 out of 38 in Bihar and and all of 24 districts in Jharkhand. Of these, the Bihar elections are imminent and W Bengal polls are due next year. However, the spends may not actually be that high. In Kharif last year when a similar scheme was announced, key farm producer states Punjab and Haryana that use mostly electricity refused the scheme while Bihar picked up only around Rs 1.5 crore. Only Tamil Nadu availed of the scheme to the tune of Rs 22 crore. The Centre, however, had to spend around Rs 1200 crore on power subsidy in both Punjab and Haryana. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;&lt;font &gt;The heavy rains this monsoon in several parts, especially in September, helped the paddy crop especially and is expected to boost water levels and soil moisture for the coming Rabi crop, sowing for which starts next motnh.

&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Farmers in drought hit districts in this unusually heavy rains monsoon season will get a diesel subsidy of Rs 500 per hectare, agriculture minister Sharad Pawar announced here on Friday at the start of the National Conference on Rabi Campaign, even as the Centre awaits bumper crop production for most key Kharif crops including paddy, pulses, coarse cereals and sugarcane. Oilseeds are the only crop where acreage is lower than normal and production is expected to be less than normal. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;A good monsoon and prospects of a good Kharif and Rabi have sobering effect on prices and will impact on the persistent double digit food inflation. Mr Pawar stressed in his address&amp;quot;The most effective way to keep prices under control is ensuring adequate availability through higher production and productivity to meet the requirement of increasing population with increasing income.&amp;quot; Rs 500 crore have been earmarked for the diesel subsidy to help affected farmers prepare for Rabi sowing expenses but expectations are that actual spends may be much lower. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;Interestingly, Mr Pawar left the key question on whether sugar sector decontrol would be on schedule for the 2010-11 season starting October open, holding that a decision would be taken only after sugar producer states got back to the Centre by mid October. Meantime, he down pegged sugar production estimates for the year from 23mt+ earlier to &amp;quot;over 22mt&amp;quot; today. That is much lower compared to the 25mt estimate by the Indian Sugar Mills Association (ISMA) and the 25-28mt estimate of Kingsman S A, which held its annual sugar conference here recently. The issue was referred to the state governments at the behest of the PM despite a big pitch by Mr Pawar to clinch the decontrol decision imminently. In and indication of increasing confidence, however, the food ministry okayed the export of 6 lt of imported sugar recently. Raw sugar exports of some mills were also allowed today. The FMC, meanwhile, is set to permit commodity exchanges to re start futures trading in sugar in October when they apply for it, on expectations of a good sugar output in 2010-11. The ban expires in end September. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;&amp;quot;Some of the oilseeds acreage has been diverted to pulses in key states on account of higher support prices for pulses,&amp;quot; agriculture secretary Mr P K Basu told ET. The bright side is that global edible oil prices have been tempered and ample is available, unlike pulses, the other big commodity imported annually to meet home demand. In addition, the bumper paddy crop could help the Centre decide on finally lifting the export ban on non Basmati rice in force for several months now. The actual numbers on acreage and estimated production, however, will only be come in by next week and the farm ministry is expected to release the first advance estimates for the season after. Paddy acreage has dropped, accordign to inputs to the Centre today, in Bihar, Jharkhand and W Bengal. The last, among the top producers, has an acreage drop of over 7% compared to last year. However, Haryana has brought in more farmland under paddy. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;&amp;quot;Every farmer will get Rs 500 per hectare as diesel subsidy,&amp;quot; Mr Pawar said. The Centre has earmarked Rs 500 crore for the spends on some 78 districts countrywide that are affected including 11 in West Bengal, 28 out of 38 in Bihar and and all of 24 districts in Jharkhand. Of these, the Bihar elections are imminent and W Bengal polls are due next year. However, the spends may not actually be that high.

Only Tamil Nadu availed of the scheme to the tune of Rs 22 crore. The Centre, however, had to spend around Rs 1200 crore on power subsidy in both Punjab and Haryana. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;
&lt;font face=&quot;arial,helvetica,sans-serif&quot; size=&quot;3&quot;&gt;The heavy rains this monsoon in several parts, especially in September, helped the paddy crop especially and is expected to boost water levels and soil moisture for the coming Rabi crop, sowing for which starts next motnh. A bumper Rabi production is expected. Agriculture sector utilises 80 percent of the water, there is immediate need for improving water use efficiency.&lt;/font&gt;

Farmers in drought hit districts in this unusually heavy rains monsoon season will get a diesel subsidy of Rs 500 per hectare, agriculture minister Sharad Pawar announced here on Friday at the start of the National Conference on Rabi Campaign,...&#039;
$disp = &#039;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;&lt;font &gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;font &gt;Farmers in drought hit districts in this unusually heavy rains monsoon season will get a diesel subsidy of Rs 500 per hectare, agriculture minister Sharad Pawar announced here on Friday at the start of the National Conference on Rabi Campaign, even as the Centre awaits bumper crop production for most key Kharif crops including paddy, pulses, coarse cereals and sugarcane. Oilseeds are the only crop where acreage is lower than normal and production is expected to be less than normal. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;&lt;font &gt;A good monsoon and prospects of a good Kharif and Rabi have sobering effect on prices and will impact on the persistent double digit food inflation. Mr Pawar stressed in his address&amp;quot;The most effective way to keep prices under control is ensuring adequate availability through higher production and productivity to meet the requirement of increasing population with increasing income.&amp;quot; Rs 500 crore have been earmarked for the diesel subsidy to help affected farmers prepare for Rabi sowing expenses but expectations are that actual spends may be much lower. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;&lt;font &gt;Interestingly, Mr Pawar left the key question on whether sugar sector decontrol would be on schedule for the 2010-11 season starting October open, holding that a decision would be taken only after sugar producer states got back to the Centre by mid October. Meantime, he down pegged sugar production estimates for the year from 23mt+ earlier to &amp;quot;over 22mt&amp;quot; today. That is much lower compared to the 25mt estimate by the Indian Sugar Mills Association (ISMA) and the 25-28mt estimate of Kingsman S A, which held its annual sugar conference here recently. The issue was referred to the state governments at the behest of the PM despite a big pitch by Mr Pawar to clinch the decontrol decision imminently. In and indication of increasing confidence, however, the food ministry okayed the export of 6 lt of imported sugar recently. Raw sugar exports of some mills were also allowed today. The FMC, meanwhile, is set to permit commodity exchanges to re start futures trading in sugar in October when they apply for it, on expectations of a good sugar output in 2010-11. The ban expires in end September. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;&lt;font &gt;&amp;quot;Some of the oilseeds acreage has been diverted to pulses in key states on account of higher support prices for pulses,&amp;quot; agriculture secretary Mr P K Basu told ET. The bright side is that global edible oil prices have been tempered and ample is available, unlike pulses, the other big commodity imported annually to meet home demand. In addition, the bumper paddy crop could help the Centre decide on finally lifting the export ban on non Basmati rice in force for several months now. The actual numbers on acreage and estimated production, however, will only be come in by next week and the farm ministry is expected to release the first advance estimates for the season after. Paddy acreage has dropped, accordign to inputs to the Centre today, in Bihar, Jharkhand and W Bengal. The last, among the top producers, has an acreage drop of over 7% compared to last year. However, Haryana has brought in more farmland under paddy. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;&lt;font &gt;&amp;quot;Every farmer will get Rs 500 per hectare as diesel subsidy,&amp;quot; Mr Pawar said. The Centre has earmarked Rs 500 crore for the spends on some 78 districts countrywide that are affected including 11 in West Bengal, 28 out of 38 in Bihar and and all of 24 districts in Jharkhand. Of these, the Bihar elections are imminent and W Bengal polls are due next year. However, the spends may not actually be that high. In Kharif last year when a similar scheme was announced, key farm producer states Punjab and Haryana that use mostly electricity refused the scheme while Bihar picked up only around Rs 1.5 crore. Only Tamil Nadu availed of the scheme to the tune of Rs 22 crore. The Centre, however, had to spend around Rs 1200 crore on power subsidy in both Punjab and Haryana. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p align=&quot;justify&quot;&gt;&lt;font &gt;The heavy rains this monsoon in several parts, especially in September, helped the paddy crop especially and is expected to boost water levels and soil moisture for the coming Rabi crop, sowing for which starts next motnh. A bumper Rabi production is expected. Agriculture sector utilises 80 percent of the water, there is immediate need for improving water use efficiency.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&#039;

<font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3">Farmers in drought hit districts in this unusually heavy rains monsoon season will get a diesel subsidy of Rs 500 per hectare, agriculture minister Sharad Pawar announced here on Friday at the start of the National Conference on Rabi Campaign, even as the Centre awaits bumper crop production for most key Kharif crops including paddy, pulses, coarse cereals and sugarcane. Oilseeds are the only crop where acreage is lower than normal and production is expected to be less than normal. </font>

<p align="justify">
<font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3">A good monsoon and prospects of a good Kharif and Rabi have sobering effect on prices and will impact on the persistent double digit food inflation. Mr Pawar stressed in his address&quot;The most effective way to keep prices under control is ensuring adequate availability through higher production and productivity to meet the requirement of increasing population with increasing income.&quot; Rs 500 crore have been earmarked for the diesel subsidy to help affected farmers prepare for Rabi sowing expenses but expectations are that actual spends may be much lower. </font>

<p align="justify">
<font face="arial,helvetica,sans-serif" size="3">Interestingly, Mr Pawar left the key question on whether sugar sector decontrol would be on schedule for the 2010-11 season starting October open, holding that a decision would be taken only after sugar producer states got back to the Centre by mid October. Meantime, he down pegged sugar production estimates for the year from 23mt+ earlier to &quot;over 22mt&quot; today. That is much lower compared to the 25mt estimate by the Indian Sugar Mills Association (ISMA) and the 25-28mt estimate of Kingsman S A, which held its annual sugar conference here recently. The issue was referred to the state governments at the behest of the PM despite a big pitch by Mr Pawar to clinch the decontrol decision imminently. In and indication of increasing confidence, however, the food ministry okayed the export of 6 lt of imported sugar recently. Raw sugar exports of some mills were also allowed today. The FMC, meanwhile, is set to permit commodity exchanges to re start futures trading in sugar in October when they apply for it, on expectations of a good sugar output in 2010-11.

Farmers in drought hit districts to get diesel subsidy

Farmers in drought hit districts in this unusually heavy rains monsoon season will get a diesel subsidy of Rs 500 per hectare, agriculture minister Sharad Pawar announced here on Friday at the start of the National Conference on Rabi Campaign, even as the Centre awaits bumper crop production for most key Kharif crops including paddy, pulses, coarse cereals and sugarcane. Oilseeds are the only crop where acreage is lower than normal and production is expected to be less than normal. A good monsoon and prospects of a good Kharif and Rabi have sobering effect on prices and will impact on the persistent double digit food inflation. Mr Pawar stressed in his address"The most effective way to keep prices under control is ensuring adequate availability through higher production and productivity to meet the requirement of increasing population with increasing income." Rs 500 crore have been earmarked for the diesel subsidy to help affected farmers prepare for Rabi sowing expenses but expectations are that actual spends may be much lower. Interestingly, Mr Pawar left the key question on whether sugar sector decontrol would be on schedule for the 2010-11 season starting October open, holding that a decision would be taken only after sugar producer states got back to the Centre by mid October. Meantime, he down pegged sugar production estimates for the year from 23mt+ earlier to "over 22mt" today. That is much lower compared to the 25mt estimate by the Indian Sugar Mills Association (ISMA) and the 25-28mt estimate of Kingsman S A, which held its annual sugar conference here recently. The issue was referred to the state governments at the behest of the PM despite a big pitch by Mr Pawar to clinch the decontrol decision imminently.
