Introduction:
2. Over 70% of the cultivated land (net sown area 124 lakh
hectares) is unirrigated and depends upon uncertain
monsoons.
The State has over 36,000 minor irrigation tanks which have
been built over several centuries and which are not being
maintained in a satisfactory condition. Every district must be
made to prepare a tank rejuvenation project on the lines of
Jalasamvardhane Yojane for restoration of all its tanks within
At present the state has only one Krishi Vignana Kendra per
district. The State may establish its own technology
dissemination centres on the lines of KVKs at the rate of one
per taluk over a period of the next 10 years.
