-Hindustan Times&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The Uttarakhand 
government has finalised a policy to double income of small and marginal
farmers in the next five years by encouraging them to adopt the best 
farm practices, with the overall plan of keeping a check on forced 
migration from hills&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dehradun: &lt;/em&gt;The Uttarakhand government has
finalised a policy to double income of small and marginal farmers in 
the next five years by encouraging them to adopt the best farm 
practices, with the overall plan of keeping a check on forced migration 
from hills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;The policy that we have formulated aims to ensure a 
paradigm shift in all practices relating to farm and horticulture so 
that income of small and marginal farmers can be doubled by 2022,&amp;rdquo; 
agriculture and horticulture secretary D Senthil Pandiyan told HT in an 
interview. &amp;ldquo;The broader aim of the new holistic farm policy is to check 
forced migration from the hills.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Other than providing insurance 
cover against crop failures in the event of natural disasters, Pandiyan 
said the policy &amp;ldquo;also aims to ensure that farmers are&amp;rdquo; provided best 
agricultural tools, fertilisers and pesticides to augment their produce&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;It&amp;rsquo;s
a detailed document that provides solutions to all kinds of problems 
affecting the hill agriculture such as its dependence on rain besides 
frequent climatic changes and different soil conditions,&amp;rdquo; Pandiyan said,
adding the farm policy, for instance, seeks to popularise rainwater 
harvesting techniques among farmers so that they could also sow crops 
off season.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Besides, it &amp;ldquo;seeks to provide facilities&amp;rdquo; for cluster
farming, so farmers can be encouraged to grow different types of crops 
suitable to soil and agro-climatic conditions prevailing in different 
areas. &amp;ldquo;For that, we have roped in experts from agricultural 
universities and institutes to prepare a databank of seeds of different 
crops that can be grown in accordance with requirements of soil types 
and agro-climatic conditions.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, soil of different areas
would be tested and soil health cards provided to farmers. &amp;ldquo;A clear 
understanding of which crop will suit which soil and agro-climatic 
condition will also lead to cost reduction in farm inputs like 
fertilisers, equipment, seed and energy.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All these scientific 
farm practices would be propagated among farmers by experts and 
extension workers. &amp;ldquo;Those (farm practices) will also be mentioned in 
detail in handbooks which are to be distributed among farmers.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The
policy would have its emphasis on integrated farm system model. &amp;ldquo;That 
means farmers will be provided facilities so that they get additional 
income from allied activities like dairy farming, poultry, fisheries bee
keeping and mushroom cultivation,&amp;rdquo; Pandyan said, adding that mechanised
farming equipment would be provided so that drudgery could be reduced.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hill
farmers would get facilities to take up organic farming in a big way. 
&amp;ldquo;As it is, organic farming is traditionally practised in the hills as 
local farmers seldom use chemical fertilizers,&amp;rdquo; he said, adding that 
post-harvesting management and marketing of farm produce would be other 
two key features of the farm policy.&lt;br /&gt;

-Hindustan Times&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The Uttarakhand 
government has finalised a policy to double income of small and marginal
farmers in the next five years by encouraging them to adopt the best 
farm practices, with the overall plan of keeping a check on forced 
migration from hills&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dehradun: &lt;/em&gt;The Uttarakhand government has
finalised a policy to double income of small and marginal farmers in 
the next five years by encouraging them to adopt the best farm 
practices, with the overall plan of keeping a check on forced migration 
from hills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;The policy that we have formulated aims to ensure a 
paradigm shift in all practices relating to farm and horticulture so 
that income of small and marginal farmers can be doubled by 2022,&amp;rdquo; 
agriculture and horticulture secretary D Senthil Pandiyan told HT in an 
interview. &amp;ldquo;The broader aim of the new holistic farm policy is to check 
forced migration from the hills.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Other than providing insurance 
cover against crop failures in the event of natural disasters, Pandiyan 
said the policy &amp;ldquo;also aims to ensure that farmers are&amp;rdquo; provided best 
agricultural tools, fertilisers and pesticides to augment their produce&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;It&amp;rsquo;s
a detailed document that provides solutions to all kinds of problems 
affecting the hill agriculture such as its dependence on rain besides 
frequent climatic changes and different soil conditions,&amp;rdquo; Pandiyan said,
adding the farm policy, for instance, seeks to popularise rainwater 
harvesting techniques among farmers so that they could also sow crops 
off season.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Besides, it &amp;ldquo;seeks to provide facilities&amp;rdquo; for cluster
farming, so farmers can be encouraged to grow different types of crops 
suitable to soil and agro-climatic conditions prevailing in different 
areas. &amp;ldquo;For that, we have roped in experts from agricultural 
universities and institutes to prepare a databank of seeds of different 
crops that can be grown in accordance with requirements of soil types 
and agro-climatic conditions.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, soil of different areas
would be tested and soil health cards provided to farmers. &amp;ldquo;A clear 
understanding of which crop will suit which soil and agro-climatic 
condition will also lead to cost reduction in farm inputs like 
fertilisers, equipment, seed and energy.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All these scientific 
farm practices would be propagated among farmers by experts and 
extension workers. &amp;ldquo;Those (farm practices) will also be mentioned in 
detail in handbooks which are to be distributed among farmers.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The
policy would have its emphasis on integrated farm system model. &amp;ldquo;That 
means farmers will be provided facilities so that they get additional 
income from allied activities like dairy farming, poultry, fisheries bee
keeping and mushroom cultivation,&amp;rdquo; Pandyan said, adding that mechanised
farming equipment would be provided so that drudgery could be reduced.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hill
farmers would get facilities to take up organic farming in a big way. 
&amp;ldquo;As it is, organic farming is traditionally practised in the hills as 
local farmers seldom use chemical fertilizers,&amp;rdquo; he said, adding that 
post-harvesting management and marketing of farm produce would be other 
two key features of the farm policy.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The Uttarakhand 
government has finalised a policy to double income of small and marginal
farmers in the next five years by encouraging them to adopt the best 
farm practices, with the overall plan of keeping a check on forced 
migration from hills&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dehradun: &lt;/em&gt;The Uttarakhand government has
finalised a policy to double income of small and marginal farmers in 
the next five years by encouraging them to adopt the best farm 
practices, with the overall plan of keeping a check on forced migration 
from hills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;The policy that we have formulated aims to ensure a 
paradigm shift in all practices relating to farm and horticulture so 
that income of small and marginal farmers can be doubled by 2022,&amp;rdquo; 
agriculture and horticulture secretary D Senthil Pandiyan told HT in an 
interview. &amp;ldquo;The broader aim of the new holistic farm policy is to check 
forced migration from the hills.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Other than providing insurance 
cover against crop failures in the event of natural disasters, Pandiyan 
said the policy &amp;ldquo;also aims to ensure that farmers are&amp;rdquo; provided best 
agricultural tools, fertilisers and pesticides to augment their produce&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;It&amp;rsquo;s
a detailed document that provides solutions to all kinds of problems 
affecting the hill agriculture such as its dependence on rain besides 
frequent climatic changes and different soil conditions,&amp;rdquo; Pandiyan said,
adding the farm policy, for instance, seeks to popularise rainwater 
harvesting techniques among farmers so that they could also sow crops 
off season.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Besides, it &amp;ldquo;seeks to provide facilities&amp;rdquo; for cluster
farming, so farmers can be encouraged to grow different types of crops 
suitable to soil and agro-climatic conditions prevailing in different 
areas. &amp;ldquo;For that, we have roped in experts from agricultural 
universities and institutes to prepare a databank of seeds of different 
crops that can be grown in accordance with requirements of soil types 
and agro-climatic conditions.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, soil of different areas
would be tested and soil health cards provided to farmers. &amp;ldquo;A clear 
understanding of which crop will suit which soil and agro-climatic 
condition will also lead to cost reduction in farm inputs like 
fertilisers, equipment, seed and energy.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All these scientific 
farm practices would be propagated among farmers by experts and 
extension workers. &amp;ldquo;Those (farm practices) will also be mentioned in 
detail in handbooks which are to be distributed among farmers.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The
policy would have its emphasis on integrated farm system model. &amp;ldquo;That 
means farmers will be provided facilities so that they get additional 
income from allied activities like dairy farming, poultry, fisheries bee
keeping and mushroom cultivation,&amp;rdquo; Pandyan said, adding that mechanised
farming equipment would be provided so that drudgery could be reduced.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hill
farmers would get facilities to take up organic farming in a big way. 
&amp;ldquo;As it is, organic farming is traditionally practised in the hills as 
local farmers seldom use chemical fertilizers,&amp;rdquo; he said, adding that 
post-harvesting management and marketing of farm produce would be other 
two key features of the farm policy.&lt;br /&gt;

-Hindustan Times&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The Uttarakhand 
government has finalised a policy to double income of small and marginal
farmers in the next five years by encouraging them to adopt the best 
farm practices, with the overall plan of keeping a check on forced 
migration from hills&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dehradun: &lt;/em&gt;The Uttarakhand government has
finalised a policy to double income of small and marginal farmers in 
the next five years by encouraging them to adopt the best farm 
practices, with the overall plan of keeping a check on forced migration 
from hills.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;The policy that we have formulated aims to ensure a 
paradigm shift in all practices relating to farm and horticulture so 
that income of small and marginal farmers can be doubled by 2022,&amp;rdquo; 
agriculture and horticulture secretary D Senthil Pandiyan told HT in an 
interview. &amp;ldquo;The broader aim of the new holistic farm policy is to check 
forced migration from the hills.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Other than providing insurance 
cover against crop failures in the event of natural disasters, Pandiyan 
said the policy &amp;ldquo;also aims to ensure that farmers are&amp;rdquo; provided best 
agricultural tools, fertilisers and pesticides to augment their produce&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;It&amp;rsquo;s
a detailed document that provides solutions to all kinds of problems 
affecting the hill agriculture such as its dependence on rain besides 
frequent climatic changes and different soil conditions,&amp;rdquo; Pandiyan said,
adding the farm policy, for instance, seeks to popularise rainwater 
harvesting techniques among farmers so that they could also sow crops 
off season.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Besides, it &amp;ldquo;seeks to provide facilities&amp;rdquo; for cluster
farming, so farmers can be encouraged to grow different types of crops 
suitable to soil and agro-climatic conditions prevailing in different 
areas. &amp;ldquo;For that, we have roped in experts from agricultural 
universities and institutes to prepare a databank of seeds of different 
crops that can be grown in accordance with requirements of soil types 
and agro-climatic conditions.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Similarly, soil of different areas
would be tested and soil health cards provided to farmers. &amp;ldquo;A clear 
understanding of which crop will suit which soil and agro-climatic 
condition will also lead to cost reduction in farm inputs like 
fertilisers, equipment, seed and energy.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All these scientific 
farm practices would be propagated among farmers by experts and 
extension workers. &amp;ldquo;Those (farm practices) will also be mentioned in 
detail in handbooks which are to be distributed among farmers.&amp;rdquo;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The
policy would have its emphasis on integrated farm system model. &amp;ldquo;That 
means farmers will be provided facilities so that they get additional 
income from allied activities like dairy farming, poultry, fisheries bee
keeping and mushroom cultivation,&amp;rdquo; Pandyan said, adding that mechanised
farming equipment would be provided so that drudgery could be reduced.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Hill
farmers would get facilities to take up organic farming in a big way. 
&amp;ldquo;As it is, organic farming is traditionally practised in the hills as 
local farmers seldom use chemical fertilizers,&amp;rdquo; he said, adding that 
post-harvesting management and marketing of farm produce would be other 
two key features of the farm policy.&lt;br /&gt;

<em>The Uttarakhand

<br />
Dehradun: </em>The Uttarakhand government has
finalised a policy to double income of small and marginal farmers in 
the next five years by encouraging them to adopt the best farm 
practices, with the overall plan of keeping a check on forced migration 
from hills.<br />
<br />
&ldquo;The policy that we have formulated aims to ensure a 
paradigm shift in all practices relating to farm and horticulture so 
that income of small and marginal farmers can be doubled by 2022,&rdquo; 
agriculture and horticulture secretary D Senthil Pandiyan told HT in an 
interview. &ldquo;The broader aim of the new holistic farm policy is to check 
forced migration from the hills.&rdquo;<br />
<br />
Other than providing insurance 
cover against crop failures in the event of natural disasters, Pandiyan 
said the policy &ldquo;also aims to ensure that farmers are&rdquo; provided best 
agricultural tools, fertilisers and pesticides to augment their produce<br />
<br />
&ldquo;It&rsquo;s
a detailed document that provides solutions to all kinds of problems 
affecting the hill agriculture such as its dependence on rain besides 
frequent climatic changes and different soil conditions,&rdquo; Pandiyan said,
adding the farm policy, for instance, seeks to popularise rainwater 
harvesting techniques among farmers so that they could also sow crops 
off season.<br />
<br />
Besides, it &ldquo;seeks to provide facilities&rdquo; for cluster
farming, so farmers can be encouraged to grow different types of crops 
suitable to soil and agro-climatic conditions prevailing in different 
areas. &ldquo;For that, we have roped in experts from agricultural 
universities and institutes to prepare a databank of seeds of different 
crops that can be grown in accordance with requirements of soil types 
and agro-climatic conditions.&rdquo;<br />
<br />
Similarly, soil of different areas
would be tested and soil health cards provided to farmers. &ldquo;A clear 
understanding of which crop will suit which soil and agro-climatic 
condition will also lead to cost reduction in farm inputs like 
fertilisers, equipment, seed and energy.&rdquo;<br />
<br />
All these scientific 
farm practices would be propagated among farmers by experts and 
extension workers. &ldquo;Those (farm practices) will also be mentioned in 
detail in handbooks which are to be distributed among farmers.&rdquo;<br />
<br />
The
policy would have its emphasis on integrated farm system model. &ldquo;That 
means farmers will be provided facilities so that they get additional 
income from allied activities like dairy farming, poultry, fisheries bee
keeping and mushroom cultivation,&rdquo; Pandyan said, adding that mechanised
farming equipment would be provided so that drudgery could be reduced.<br />
<br />
Hill
farmers would get facilities to take up organic farming in a big way. 
&ldquo;As it is, organic farming is traditionally practised in the hills as 
local farmers seldom use chemical fertilizers,&rdquo; he said, adding that 
post-harvesting management and marketing of farm produce would be other 
two key features of the farm policy.<br />

New farm policy to double marginal farmers' income and curb migration -Deep Joshi

-Hindustan Times The Uttarakhand government has finalised a policy to double income of small and marginalfarmers in the next five years by encouraging them to adopt the best farm practices, with the overall plan of keeping a check on forced migration from hills Dehradun: The Uttarakhand government hasfinalised a policy to double income of small and marginal farmers in the next five years by encouraging them to adopt the best farm practices, with the overall plan of keeping a check on forced migration from hills. “The policy that we have formulated aims to ensure a paradigm shift in all practices relating to farm and horticulture so that income of small and marginal farmers can be doubled by 2022,” agriculture and horticulture secretary D Senthil Pandiyan told HT in an interview. “The broader aim of the new holistic farm policy is to check forced migration from the hills.” Other than providing insurance cover against crop failures in the event of natural disasters, Pandiyan said the policy “also aims to ensure that farmers are” provided best agricultural tools, fertilisers and pesticides to augment their produce “It’sa detailed document that provides solutions to all kinds of problems affecting the hill agriculture such as its dependence on rain besides frequent climatic changes and different soil conditions,” Pandiyan said,adding the farm policy, for instance, seeks to popularise rainwater harvesting techniques among farmers so that they could also sow crops off season. Besides, it “seeks to provide facilities” for clusterfarming, so farmers can be encouraged to grow different types of crops suitable to soil and agro-climatic conditions prevailing in different areas. “For that, we have roped in experts from agricultural universities and institutes to prepare a databank of seeds of different crops that can be grown in accordance with requirements of soil types and agro-climatic conditions.” Similarly, soil of different areaswould be tested and soil health cards provided to farmers. “A clear understanding of which crop will suit which soil and agro-climatic condition will also lead to cost reduction in farm inputs like fertilisers, equipment, seed and energy.” All these scientific farm practices would be propagated among farmers by experts and extension workers. “Those (farm practices) will also be mentioned in detail in handbooks which are to be distributed among farmers.” Thepolicy would have its emphasis on integrated farm system model. “That means farmers will be provided facilities so that they get additional income from allied activities like dairy farming, poultry, fisheries beekeeping and mushroom cultivation,” Pandyan said, adding that mechanisedfarming equipment would be provided so that drudgery could be reduced. Hillfarmers would get facilities to take up organic farming in a big way. “As it is, organic farming is traditionally practised in the hills as local farmers seldom use chemical fertilizers,” he said, adding that post-harvesting management and marketing of farm produce would be other two key features of the farm policy.
