India, development of 60,000 pulse villages in the rain-fed areas, promoon of oil palm plantaons,
diversicaon of crops by promong fruit and vegetable culvaon, accelerated fodder development and

billion cizensa number that isgrowing requires enhanced agricultural producon
and producvity in the form of a Second Green
Revoluon. Further, special aenon is required
for achieving higher producon and producvity
levels in pulses, oilseeds, fruits, and vegetables,
which had remained untouched in the First Green
Revoluon but are essenal for nutrional security.
In this regard, achieving high producon of poultry,
meat and sheries is also essenal. The relavely
weak supply responses to price hikes in agricultural
commodies, especially food arcles, in the recent
past brings back into focus the central queson of
ecient supply chain management and need for
sustained levels of growth in agriculture and allied
sectors. The choices before the naon is clearto
invest more in agriculture and allied sectors with
the right strategies, policies, and intervenons. Thisis also a necessary condion for inclusive growth
and for ensuring that the benets of growth reach
a larger number of people.

FROM THE GROUND
Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme: Boon or bane
to Indian Agriculture?
Farmers with large farm holdings who invariably depend on farm labourers would be inversely
affected by this NREGS Scheme. When the daily wages are more in NREGS, quite naturally the
labourers preference would be to work through it. It would not be economical for the farmer to
provide higher wages to the labour in order to retain the labour in his field. Or in the other sense the
food prices has to be increased so that the farmer can hire labour for higher wages. The implementing
agency of NREGS failed to look in to these matters. Tea gardens in Tripura are facing a shortage of
labour with the expansion of National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA) scheme in all four
major tea producing districts, thus absorbing about 20-22 per cent tea workers .

. Therefore it needs
to be emphasized here that henceforth MSP
fixation for various crops and commodities must
be done in accordance with existing principles
and practices and also after taking into due
consideration of the fact that NREGA can also
impact farm gate level prices from now on.
NREGA- varying wage rates affectinginter state agricultural trade
We all know that there has been a tremendous
importance being laid on the inter state trade in
agricultural commodities nowadays. One of the
prime aspects of the Rainbow Revolution is also
the Dismantling of Restrictions on Movement
of Agricultural Commodities throughout thecountry , however in the current scenario where
we find that minimum wages being revised from
time to time by various states to suit their local
economy, and as the nreg a u

u nrega. However this has invariably led to
a situation where some states are advantageous
with respect to the cost of cultivation of various
Agricultural Commodities as they have to dole out
more money for hiring labourers as compared to
their counterparts in other states and hence are
bound to lose out on this front immensely to the
cultivators of the same crop from other areas.

JATROPHA CURCAS L - THE WONDER PLANTDr Manas Ranjan Senapa
Fossil Fuels have been the prime source of energy of power for domesc, transportaon andindustrial sector for more than a century. The rapidly increasing consumpon and consequent depleon
of these reserves clearly show that the end of the fossil fuel era is not very far. For developing countries
like India, rising world prices of crude oil and petroleum is a serious cause for concern. We import
almost 70% of our requirement of crude oil and in future it is likely to increase to 85%. This is high
me to ponder over and to nd an alternave to the fossil fuel. The green fuel Bio diesel is one such
alternave to partly replace the petroleum crude and be the fuel of the future Biodiesel buses are in
use in Europe and in the mid western United States. In India successful test run drives have been done
by using biodiesel produced from Jatropha Curcas (Ratanjyot in Hindi). Shatabdi train was run from
Delhi to Amritsar using B5 (5% biodiesel) blend and no problem was observed during the run.
