Implementation of PMKSY

 

 

 

            Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana (PMKSY) has been operationalised from 1st July, 2015 with the objective of enhancing irrigation coverage and improving the delivery system at farm level. The programme aims at end-to-end solutions in irrigation supply chain, viz. water sources, distribution network and farm level applications. All the States and Union Territories are covered under the programme. The scheme envisages decentralized state level planning and projectised execution, allowing the states to draw their irrigation development plans based on district/blocks plans with a horizon of 5 to 7 years.  

 

The scheme has four components which are as under:

 

i.          Accelerated Irrigation Benefit Programme (AIBP): To focus on faster completion of ongoing Major and Medium Irrigation including National Projects.

 

ii.         Har Khet Ko Pani (HKKP): Creation of new water sources through minor irrigation (both

            surface and ground water); repair, restoration & renovation of traditional water bodies;     command area development; strengthening and creation of distribution network from        sources to the farm etc.

 

iii.        Per Drop More Crop (PDMC): Precision irrigation systems, efficient water conveyance &             application, micro level storage structures, topping up of input cost beyond Mahatma    Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS) permissible limits,             secondary storage, water lifting devices, extension activities, coordination & management

            etc..

 

iv.        Watershed Development (WD): Ridge area treatment, drainage line treatment, soil and     moisture conservation, rainwater harvesting and other watershed interventions.

           

            Major, medium and minor irrigation projects are covered under PMKSY to bring more areas under irrigation and increase agricultural production. Major and Medium irrigation projects  are incorporated under Accelerated Irrigation Benefit Programme (AIBP) and Minor irrigation along with Command Area Development (CAD) comes under Har Khet Ko Pani component of PMKSY both components being administered by Ministry of Water Resources, River Development & Ganga rejuvenation.

 

            The State Wise details of funds allocated under various components of PMKSY during the current fiscal is given below.
