Description ABSTRACT
India is the second largest producer of fruits and vegetables. The total production of fruits has been estimated at 52.85 million metric tonnes from an area of 5.34 million hectares and vegetables have been estimated at 108.20 million metric tons from an area of 7.05 million hectares. Horticulture crops such as fruits, vegetables, root tuber, aromatic and medicinal plants and spices and plantation crops like coconut, arecanut, cashew and cocoa. Presently, horticultural crops occupy around 13 per cent of India’s gross cropped area, producing 177.41 million metric tons.
Khargone district is one of the important horticulture crops growing district of the Madhya Pradesh state, this covered 35319 hectare area with production of 276261 tons in the year 2011-12. After achieving a break-through in the production of horticulture crops, suggestions have been diverted towards in progress of horticulture crops production and productivity in the country. Hence, there is acute need from various sectors to know the profitability of horticultural crops farming and also required to know existing production constraints. With the consideration of importance of horticulture crops in the state, the present study on “Impact of National Horticulture Mission in khargone district of Madhya Pradesh” has been under taken, keeping in view the following specific objectives
1. To determine the absolute, relative change, growth of in area, production and productivity of vegetable and fruit crops.
2. To assess the technological driven programme to improve productivity and market infrastructures for vegetable and fruit processing.
3. To estimate the change in additional income due to various programme of NHM in the area under study.
4. To suggest way and means for strengthen the NHM programmer.
The Khargone distict comprises of nine block viz.,Barwah, Meheshwar, Kasrawad, Segoan, Bhagwanpura, Khargone, Bhikangoan, jhirinia and Gogoan out of which Khargone block, a few villages selected randomly under NHM programme. The required data were collected by the survey method with the help of pre-tested interview schedule. The primary data pertain to agricultural year 2011-12.
The Chilli area expansion and additional income of sample respondent was found that the area under the study 0.94 hac., in the cotton crop that the total area was shifted to the chilli crops under NHM programme. In net income of Rs. 11149 per hectare greater than the cotton crops that is 38.76% per hectare ultimate it was the effect of NHM programme in the chilli crops in the study area. It was area under study was 0.97 hectare in the soybean crops the total area was shifted to the chilli crops. In net income of Rs. 26116 per hectare greater than the soybean crops that is 133.34% per hectare. It was found that area under study was 0.70 hectare in the local chilli crop. The total area was shifted to the hybrid chilli crop under NHM programme. In net income of Rs. 8697 per hectare greater than the local chilli crop i.e. 47.63% per hectare so it was also the effect of NHM programme in the study area.
The poly house was found that the area under study was 0.27 hectare in the general field tomato crop. The total area shifted to the poly house tomato crop and net income of Rs. 14024 per hectare greater than the general field tomato crop i.e. 40.37% per hectare in NHM programme within the study area. The poly house was found that the area under study was 0.22 hectare in the general field chilli crop. The total area shifted to the poly house chilli crop and net income of Rs. 12085 per hectare greater than the general field chilli crop i.e. 36.33% per hectare. In establishment of vermin compost unit was 6 unit only under NHM programme which found that the positive response in the study area. In mulching found that the area under study was 1 hectare in general field water melon crop and it was shifted programme and noted that the labour cost, irrigation cost and weeding cost has reduced in mulching field as compare to the general field crop of water melon.
