2. Current
Scenario
• Agriculture
plays
a
pivotal
role
in
India’s
economy.
• It
provides
employment
to
56
per
cent
of
the
Indian
workforce
but
contributes
to
only
1/6
of
the
GDP.
• Between
1961
and
2004-‐05,
there
was
a
decline
of
34
%
in
the
share
of
agriculture
in
GDP
while
the
decline
in
share
of
agriculture
in
employment
was
of
only
19.5
%.
Average
size
has
declined
from
2.3
ha.
in
1970-‐71
to
1.37
ha
in
2011-‐12.
• India
is
a
land
of
small
farmers.
The
share
of
marginal
and
small
farmers
accounted
for
around
85%
of
opera4onal
holdings
in
2010-‐11
as
compared
to
about
62%
in
1960-‐61.
Similarly,
the
area
operated
by
small
and
marginal
farmers
has
increased
from
about
19%
to
44%
during
the
same
period.

3. Co-‐opera?ve
Joint
Farming
Society
• Adjacent
farms
are
merged
to
allow
farmers
reap
the
benefits
of
mechanized
farming,
which
reduces
labour
and
improves
produc4vity.
• Coopera4ve
socie4es
of
farmers
and
merging
of
farms
is
based
on
land
holdings
so
that
the
farmers
fit
economically,
socially
and
culturally
into
the
group.

group:
• This
division
involves

among
various

Center
etc.
• Service
Providers:
• Private
organiza4ons
or
local
entrepreneurs
are
the
major
stake
holders
in
this
group.
They
help
facilita4on
and
implementa4on
of
recommenda4ons
by
R&TA
at

Packagers,
Processors
and
Corporates
• This
sector
handles
the
penul4mate

step
in
supply
chain,
ul4mate
being
the
market.
It
is
open
for

Proposed
model
5. Tier
1:
Coopera4ve
Produc4on
Socie4es
Production Cooperatives
Overview
• The
Tier
1
comprises
of
farmers
from
different
strata
who
would
pool
together
their
land
to
boost
the
produc4vity.
• The
major
hindrance
in
achieving
a
high
efficacy,
which
is
‘extraordinarily
small
size
of
an
average
field
in
the
country’,
is
thus
addressed.
• Moreover,
the
Tier
1
u4lizes
the
facili4es,
such
as
–
Mechaniza4on
of
farms
and
large
scale
economies
,etc.
from
the
Tier
2
(service
sector
as
well
as
R&TA
organiza4on)
socie4es.
Legalities
• The
wages
of
the
working
farmers/labourers
will
be
pre-‐
decided
and
will
be
paid
on
a
daily
basis.
• The
profits/loses,
ager
removing
all
the
investments,
wages,
running
cost
etc.,
will
be
shared
in
direc?on
propor?on
to
the
land
size.
• The
major
decisions
will
be
taken
by
the
coopera4ve
and
not
the
farmer
with
the
largest
share.
• A
farmer
can
neither
leave
nor
can
be
removed
from
the
coopera4ve
in
the
mid
of
the
crop
season.
Direct Benefits
• R&TA
will
be
able
to
make
a
regionally
focused
approach
on
various
technical
issues.
• Grievances
can
be
microscopically
addressed
by
the
service
and
R&TA
sector,
which
is
the
key
to
high
produc4vity.

assessment
they
will
be
able
to
get
through
first
hand
experience
with
farmers,
which,
in
turn
would
help
them
get
a
closer
view
at
needs
and
problems
in
a
