Coconut Development Programme
SEED AUTHORITY
Modernization of Departmental Laboratories
Strengthening of bio fertilizer laboratories
Two State Biofertilizer laboratories are functioning under the Department of Agriculture, one at Thiruvananthapuram and another at Palakkad. The demand for biofertilizers is increasing in the state especially in the context of organic farming. So it is necessary to provide the good quality biofertilizers to the farmers of the state at reasonable rate.
Strengthening of Bio-control Laboratory and Parasite Breeding Stations
Biological control is the best eco-friendly method of pest management. Use of bio-pesticides, releasing of predators and parasites and fungal/bacterial pathogens of pests are done in bio-control of pests.Under the Department of Agriculture, State Bio-control laboratory is functioning at Mannuthy in Thrissur District. Various formulations ofBio-control agents like Trichograma (Trichocards) used against pests of paddy, Pseudomonas, Trichoderma etc. are produced and distributed to farmers from this centre. These products have become very popular among the farmers and the demand is often higher than the production capacity of the lab. To augment the production of bio-control agents, the centres function need to be strengthened.
Maintenance of seed testing laboratories
The Seed Testing Laboratories functioning under the department is aimed at ensuring the quality of seeds supplied to farmers through various types of analysis of seed samples. The facilities of these labs can be strengthened to cater the needs of farming community. Creation of additional infrastructure facilities and purchase of equipments, chemicals, furniture etc., will be undertaken for the two seed testing laboratories at Thiruvananthapuram & Alappuzha.
Strengthening of Biotechnology and Model Floriculture Centre
This centre produce and distribute micro propagated (tissue culture plantlets) planting materials of Banana, Pepper, Anthurium, Orchids,Foliage plants etc. The activities of the lab has to be strengthened for augmenting production capacity. Procurement/replacement of equipments, replacement of existing air-conditioning facilities, AMC of the already purchased equipments, electricity charges has to be carried out in the lab during the year.
Drawal of samples for quality control analysis
For quality control programme, sampling of fertilizers, pesticides, biofertilizers, organic manures, bio pesticides, seeds and soil has to be undertaken. This will be done by the quality control inspectors of the Department of Agriculture. While drawing samples, from the pesticide and fertilizer dealers, payment has to be made for the drawn samples.
Executional Infrastructure
For carrying out various activities of the laboratories like collection of parent material, distribution of tissue culture plantlets, sampling of pesticides, fertilizers, organic manures, soil and other official activities etc the officers of the Department and laboratories have to conduct tours for which expenses are involved by way of fuel charge, maintenance charges, traveling expenses etc.
Integrated Pest Management System
In the current years budget there is a provision of Rs.50.00 lakhs for implementation of the scheme Integrated Pest Management System.This is a continuing scheme.
FARM INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION
