Description Andhra Pradesh has set for itself the 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’. Achievement of this vision is incumbent upon a fast
paced and sustainable double-digit growth, delivered through a combination of program oriented 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 aimed at
achieving ‘double digit growth’ in agriculture and allied sectors. Massive outlay of investments over five

reducing costs of cultivation, productivity enhancement and value addition in the agriculture, horticulture,
livestock and fisheries sub-sectors. Thirteen pilot sites representing 13 districts of the state were identified

proven technologies will be scaled-up to the entire district with suitable institutional reforms. Supply and
demand side interventions are aimed for improving the livelihoods of the farmers in the state...
