6 01. SCHME ON DAIRY ENTREPRENEURSHIP DEVELOPMENT 1. Background 1.1.Department of Animal Husbandry, Dairying and Fisheries, (DAHD&F) GoI during the year launched a pilot scheme titled Venture Capital Scheme for Dairy and Poultry. The main objective of the scheme was to extend assistance for setting up small dairy farms and other components to bring structural changes in the dairy sector. Assistance under the scheme is extended in the form of Interest Free Loan (IFL) to individuals, SHGs, NGOs, Cooperatives, companies for selected components. As on 31 March 2010, units were extended IFL assistance of Rs crore through out the country An evaluation of the scheme revealed that the scheme had created a major impact in the area of financing of milch animals in some States and the farmers at ground level derived benefit from the scheme. The study has recommended to remove the restrictive clause on financing of milch animals in Operation Flood areas. Further, there are requests from many quarters including farmers, State Animal Husbandry Departments and banks to convert the mode of implementation of the scheme from IFL to capital subsidy mode After detailed discussions with all the stakeholders, it has been decided by DAHD&F, the nodal department to change the mode of implementation revise the existing unit costs and bring some more components for assistance under the purview of the scheme. As the scheme aims at promoting entrepreneurial qualities, the revised scheme has been named as Dairy Entrepreneurship Development Scheme (DEDS.) 2. Objectives of the scheme O To promote setting up of modern dairy farms for production of clean milk O To encourage heifer calf rearing thereby conserve good breeding stock O To bring structural changes in the unorganized sector so that initial processing of milk can be taken up at the village level itself. O To bring about up gradation of quality and traditional technology to handle milk on a commercial scale O To generate self employment and provide infrastructure mainly for unorganized sector. 3. Implementing period and Area of operation The scheme will be implemented during the remaining XI plan period through out the

7 country with out restrictions applicable to Operation Flood areas for financing of milch animals. The scheme will come into effect from 1 September 2010 i.e. proposals sanctioned and disbursed by the banks on or after 1 September 2010 shall be covered under the revised scheme i.e.deds and sanctions under the old scheme (DVCF) will not be entertained thereafter. 4. Eligibility 4.1. Farmers, individual entrepreneurs, NGOs, companies, groups of unorganized and organized sector etc. Groups of organized sector include self help groups, dairy cooperative societies, milk unions, milk federations etc An individual will be eligible to avail assistance for all the components under the scheme but only once for each component 4.3. More than one member of a family can be assisted under the scheme provided they set up separate units with separate infrastructure at different locations. The distance between the boundaries of two such farms should be at least 500m. 5 Subsidy Components that can be financed, indicative unit cost and pattern of assistance are given below S.No Component Unit Cost Pattern of Assistance i E s t a b l i s h m e n t o f s m a l l Rs 5.00 lakh 25% of the outlay (33.33 % for SC / ST dairy units with for 10 animal farmers, ) as back ended capital subsidy crossbred cows/ unit s u b j e c t t o a c e i l i n g o f R s l a k h f o r a u n i t indigenous descript minimum unit of 10 animals ( Rs 1.67 lakh for SC/ST milch cows like size is 2 farmers,).

Sheep, and goats are reared by the most poor of the rural population and they provide our society with meat, wool, milk and manure. These animals have wide adaptability to suit many of the agro-climatic conditions. The contribution of the sector to rural economy estimated at Rs.2400 crore mostly to sustain landless, marginal and small farmers. It forms 10% of total value of livestock products. Though our country has around 41 breeds of sheep and 20 breeds of goat, very little scientific breeding has been done to improve their performance at the field level. Efforts to import exotic germplasm to crossbreed local animals have not been successful. 1.2 Poor awareness of the role played by the sector for the downtrodden; absence of attention by the planners/ bankers; lack of focus on improving performance of animals are reasons for the sector remaining backward. There are no farmers organisations to help them. There are no schemes aimed at this sector at the national level. Their problems are getting acute as fodder availability in the migratory routes is drying up. It is necessary to organise and educate them in the latest technologies available and ensure that animals are selected for better performance and make use of locally available resources. 1.3 The present proposal addresses the past neglect. 2. Objectives of the Scheme The main objectives of the scheme are: i. To encourage sheep/goat/rabbit rearing farmers to go in for commercial rearing rather than subsistence farming by providing incentives for performance. ii. The production performance of native breeds will be improved by regular selection and culling based on measurable indicators. iii. Facilitate marketing based on acceptable norms so that producer gets a fair share of the price paid by ultimate consumer for the meat. iv.to encourage value addition of the products locally and help farmer realise a better income from the animals. 3. Implementing Period and Area of Operation The scheme will be implemented during the remaining XI Plan period with a focus on 114 Districts for small ruminants and 12 Districts for rabbits in 24 States. No potential Districts for rabbits rearing activities in the State. Prakasam and Kadapa Districts are potential for Sheep / Goat activity. State Level Sanction and Monitoring Committee (SLSMC) can include new areas in their State taking into account potential in such areas. 4. Eligibility 4.1. Individual farmers, SHGs are the intended beneficiaries for setting up rearing units. Preference would be given for traditional shepherds, women, SC and STs Individual farmers, NGO s, Companies would be eligible for breeding farms with preference for those who have organised the farmers into groups for taking up rearing of small ruminants and rabbits.

32 1. Background 1.1 India produces an estimated 53.5 billion eggs per annum, with per capita availability of 42 per annum. It has recorded an average growth rate of 7-8% over the years. Even more astounding was growth in production of poultry/chicken meat from only 0.12 million metric tonnes in 1981 to 2.0 million metric tonnes presently, a phenomenal growth of 15% per year, on an average. The Indian poultry industry with an annual output value of nearly Rs. 20,000 crore provides direct & indirect employment to about three million people catering primarily to domestic market This has been made possible by policies / interventions of Government, proactive role of private sector and entrepreneurs and large scale funding by the financial institutions. However, these efforts resulted in unequal growth with development being mainly concentrated in few states. A considerable segment in the poultry sector is still unorganized and is spread over in the form of small units in farflung areas that still needs organized effort to exploit the existing potential. Training and marketing continue to be the weakest links in various poultry development programs. With all these weaknesses, poultry development programmes under the cooperative sector were not able to make a dent. 1.3 Poultry related activities have become highly scientific and to survive marginalization, small farmers have to work in groups. Further, most crucial linkages (both forward and backward) have to be set-up for enabling small farmers to directly participate in marketing operations, as far as possible. 1.4 It is envisaged that the current scheme will enable small and marginal farmers including landless farmers, women and other socio-economically weak segments, educated unemployed youth to take up poultry farming as an income generating activity in organized way. 2. Poultry Estates Poultry Estates will have establishments of small farmers who will organize and form societies- thus accruing both, benefits of economies of scale and achieve better market opportunities with promotion of quality products, instilling confidence in consumers. Creation of estates is primarily envisaged on line of other industrial estates where majority of facilities will be made available within an area to facilitate both backward and forward linkages. As far as Poultry Estates are concerned, State Government will provide facilities in terms of land on lease, development of estate area, electricity and water supply, training, common facilities like feed mixing, storage, etc. Entrepreneurs who will set up either layer or broiler units in these estates will be assisted with interest free loan provided they adopt scientific production methods. State Governments may also be considering providing incentives like tax holidays & waiver from sales tax, etc. Direct participation of farmers in Poultry Estates can lead to sale of wholesome & hygienic product at a better price. The scheme to establish Poultry Estates is envisaged as a unique attempt not only to have a specific outcome from few estates but also to turn mindset of a large section of private producers, who mostly work on short-term gain policy compromising on either quality of products or cutting down costs, showing little regard to poultry health, bio-security and waste disposal protocols. Success of these estates will enable the way poultry farming should be done and may be we may not 32

33 need a law or act to impose quality and bio-security norms upon a self-disciplined industry NOTE: POULTRY ESTATE UNITS ARE NOT ELIGIBLE IN A.P. Only MOTHER UNITS FOR RURAL BACKYARD POULTRY ARE ELIGIBLE IN A.P. 3. Mother units for Rural Backyard Poultry 3.1 It is proposed to set up mother units where day old chicks of low input birds are reared upto 4 weeks and supplied to the beneficiaries under Rural Backyard Poultry programme. These mother units will get the day old chicks from State Poultry Farms or private hatcheries producing low input birds. 3.2 The State Governments shall submit proposals to GoI for rural backyard poultry in the proforma prescribed by DAHD&F, GoI and communicated to them vide administrative approval no /2009/LDT-P dated 07 August The details on mother units like number of mother units, State Poultry Farms or private hatcheries to which these mother units are proposed to be linked for supply of day old chicks shall be given by the State Government. 3.4 Unless justified, there should not be more than 10 mother units in each district / cluster. 3.5 After approval by DAHD&F, State Animal Husbandry Department shall identify the beneficiaries for establishment of mother units in consultation with DRDA and local banks. The beneficiaries could be individuals, SHGs, NGOs, who are trained in management of day old chicks and rearing them upto 4 weeks. If necessary, Animal Husbandry Department will arrange for training of the identified beneficiaries. 3.6 The funding pattern for a mother unit with 3 pheriwalas is as follows Unit cost ( unit size 1500 chicks per batch) : Rs 1.36 lakh (of which Rs.1.00 lakh would be fixed cost and Rs.0.36 lakh for kick starting the operations of the unit). Subsidy : Rs 0.20 lakh (to be treated as borrowers margin when bank loan is availed) Interest Free Loan : Rs 0.36 lakh Bank Loan : Rs 0.80 lakh 3.7. The District Animal Husbandry Department will sponsor the applications for mother units and release the subsidy amount to the financing banks. The financing banks on receipt of the subsidy will sanction the amount of unit cost excluding the subsidy as bank loan and apply to the concerned Regional Office of NABARD through their controlling office in the proforma (Annexure I- similar to poultry estates). In case the unit cost is more than that indicated, banks shall finance the additional cost as their loan or the beneficiaries may bring that amount as margin. 4. Sanction of the project and release of IFL 4.1 NABARD RO will scrutinize the claim proposals and ensure that those which satisfy the terms and conditions laid down in the guidelines only are put up to SLSMC for sanction. The meeting will be convened initially as and when proposals are received and later at quarterly /
