Description Andhra Pradesh has set for itself the primary target of becoming a developed state in India by the year
2022, specifically in the areas of socio-economic development and ease of doing business. The vision is
to lay foundation for the ‘Sunrise state of Andhra Pradesh’. The achievement of this vision is incumbent
upon a fast paced and sustained double-digit growth delivered through a combination of programmatic
and project interventions with a focus on sustainable and inclusive development. To operationalize its
vision, the state government has charted out a multi-pronged strategy comprising seven missions, five
grids and five campaigns. Among the seven, primary sector mission (Rythu Kosam Mission) is on the top
aiming for achieving double digit growth in agriculture and allied sectors. Massive outlay of investments
over five year period (2015-2020) are targeted in agriculture development under consortium approach by
bringing state, national and international partners on board. ICRISAT leads the consortium in partnership
with the Government of Andhra Pradesh and has designed a strategy to transform the agriculture and
allied sectors in the state. The prime focus of this mission is focused on improvement in soil fertility, access
to better seed, reducing costs of cultivation, productivity enhancement and value addition in agriculture,
horticulture, livestock and fisheries sub-sectors. Initially, thirteen pilot sites representing 13 districts of the
state were identified and established for introduction, testing and scaling-up of technologies over a period
of time. The proven technologies will be scaled-up to the entire district with suitable institutional reforms
and different scales. Supply and demand side interventions are aimed for improving the livelihoods of the
farmers in the state.
