1. Introduction
The Student READY (Rural Entrepreneurship Awareness Development Yojana) aims
to provide rural entrepreneurship awareness, practical experience in real-life situation in
agriculture and allied enterprises to the undergraduate students by keeping themselves
physically present in rural situation and interacting personally with various stakeholders. The
programme aims at building confidence, developing skill and acquiring knowledge about
local field situation of the farmers and the locality.

The Student READY was launched by the Honourable Prime Minister of India on 25th
July, 2015. The concept is to reorient graduates of Agriculture and allied subjects for
ensuring and assuring employability and develop entrepreneurs for emerging knowledge
intensive agriculture.

Three basic principles of this programme are -

Education: The students will learn by doing with the farmers in the village and
educate them about the advanced technologies in agriculture and allied
fields.

Experience: The students will face the real life situation of a farmer, and gain
experience about the resource availability and their judicious use for
enhancing the production and productivity of entrepreneurs.

Exposure: The student will get better platform to find out the problems in
agriculture by exposing themselves to difficult situations, find out best
solution to improve the livelihood option by preparing action plans and
linking with different service sectors and govt. sponsored schemes.

2. Rural Agricultural Work Experience (RAWE)
RAWE is a programme for imparting quality, practical and production oriented
education for agriculture degree. The rural agricultural work experience help the students
primarily to understand the rural situations, status of agricultural technologies adopted by
farmers, prioritize the farmers’ problems and to develop skills & attitude of working with
farm families for overall development in rural area.

Agricultural Education is an important tool in ensuring increased agricultural

productivity, sustainability, environmental and ecological security, profitability, job security
& equity. In India, Randhawa Committee (1992) recommended the RAWE programme for
imparting quality, practical and production oriented education for agriculture degree
programme. It will provide significant hands on experience in acquiring knowledge and skill.

Importance of RAWE

 Preparing Agricultural Graduates for better career in agriculture/ agribusiness.

 Preparing Agricultural Graduates to face the challenges by acquiring knowledge &

skill through hands on experience.

Objectives of RAWE

 To provide an opportunity to the students to understand the rural setting in relation to

agriculture and allied activities.

 To make the students familiar with socio-economic conditions of the farmers and their
problems.

 To impart diagnostic and remedial knowledge to the students relevant to real field
situations through practical training.

 To develop communication skills in students using extension teaching methods in

transfer of technology.

 To develop confidence and competence to solve agricultural problems.

 To acquaint students with on-going extension and rural development programs.

3. Orientation programme at college

An orientation programme was conducted in the college to enable the students to

refresh their technical knowledge in different aspects of agriculture and allied subjects, to
equip them with minimum requirement and guide them to face the day to day difficulties in
a real rural situation. Faculty members from various departments oriented the students as

The Agriculture Development Associate (KrushiUnnatSahayogi) Programme – The

Directorate of Agriculture & Food Production, Govt. of Odisha took a new initiative to
involve the final year Agril. undergraduate students in their RAWE programme for
implementation of its flagship schemes & programmes at grass root level by creating

5
awareness campaigns, conducting training and demonstration programmes, registering the
farmers in different schemes and programmes as well as collecting feedback information etc.
A group of 2-3 students will work under the supervision of one Assistant Agriculture Officer
at Block level. One hundred three most backward blocks of the state were selected for
deputing the students to work as Agril. Development Associates for a period of 8 weeks.
Each student will be provided with a stipend of Rs.6000/- per month and a conveyance
allowance of Rs.1000/-. There is also provision of Rs.1500/- cash award for 10% of best
performing students. Ten important schemes/modules were selected for the students to work
with. An online system for recording student attendance and submission of reports and
returns on daily basis along with online filling up and uploading farmers’ information
through different formats was initiated through development of an App by the ADAPT
(Analytics and Decision Support for Agril. Policy Transformation) team of the Directorate.
This App can be downloaded by the students in their Smart Phones and used for the purpose.
The 10 Scheme officers, Deputy Directors of Agriculture, Deans and Associate Deans of
Argil. Universities and the ADAPT team under the headship of Joint Director of Agriculture
(PP) were monitoring the student activities and providing real time support regularly. Two
Nos. KrushiUnnatSahayogi Whatsapp Groups were created for the success of the programme.

Orientation training programme for the Agriculture Development Associates

One day Orientation training programme was conducted by the officers of the
Department of Agriculture at Krishi Bhawan on 3rd July 2019 to appraise the students about
different modules/schemes and the expectations from the students. They were informed about
the stipends, system of online submission of attendance, use of the App (Software),

6. Salient features of the Schemes / Modules

6.1 Scheme/Modue -1 Seed Treatment

Seed treatment refers to the application of fungicide, insecticide, or a

combination of both, to seeds so as to disinfect and disinfect them
from seed-borne or soil-borne pathogenic organisms and storage insects. It
also refers to the subjecting of seeds to solar energy exposure, immersion
in conditioned water, etc.

6.2 Scheme/Modue -2 Seed Availability Assessment

Seed is the cheapest and basic input for sustained agricultural production.
At the time of release of a variety, small quantity of seed normally known
as nucleus seed is available with the plant breeder. Commercial quantity
of seed is produced after a series of multiplication steps

6.3 Scheme/Modue -3 Safe usage of Pesticide

Using pesticides safely depends on many things. Some of the most

important factors include selecting the appropriate product, and using that
product according to the label directions. The label directions are written
to minimize the risk of problems and to define the legal uses for the
product.

Use protective clothings viz., hand gloves, face masks, cap, apron, full
trouser, etc. to cover whole body. Read instructions on pesticide container
label carefully before use. Avoid spilling of pesticides solutions while
filling the spray tank. No activities should be carried out which may affect
your health

6.4 Scheme/Modue -4 Availability of fertilizers.

An understanding of soil chemical properties is important because of their

effect on nutrient availability to plants. Also, these properties may usually
be favorably altered with the use of lime and/or fertilizer materials.
Improving soil fertility & managing soil health through optimal use of
fertilisers, biofertilisers & organic farming.

6.5 Scheme/Modue -5 Impact Assessment of DBT in fertilizer

The fertilser DBT implemented on a national basis from February 1, aims

to address the challenges such as diversion of urea for non-agricultural
use, imbalanced use of fertilisers, delay in subsidy receipts from
government and protection of some of the legacy and inefficient plants.

16
6.6 Scheme/Modue -6 Soil Health Card

A Soil Health Card is used to assess the current status of soil health and,
when used over time, to determine changes in soil health that are affected
by land management. A Soil Health Card displays soil health indicators
and associated descriptive terms. The indicators are typically based on
farmers' practical experience and knowledge of local natural resources.
The card lists soil health indicators that can be assessed without the aid of
technical or laboratory equipment.

Soil Health Card (SHC) is a Government of India's scheme promoted by

the Department of Agriculture & Co-operation under the Ministry of
Agriculture and Farmers' Welfare. It is being implemented through the
Department of Agriculture of all the State and Union Territory
Governments.

6.7 Scheme/Modue -7 Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY)

Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY) is the government

sponsored crop insurance scheme that integrates multiple stakeholders on
a single platform.

6.8 Scheme/Modue -8 Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana(PMKSY)-Micro Irrigation

Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana (PMKSY) has been formulated

with the vision of extending the coverage of irrigation 'Har Khet ko pani'

The major objective of PMKSY is to achieve convergence of investments

in irrigation at the field level, expand cultivable area under assured
irrigation, improve on-farm water use efficiency to reduce wastage of
water, enhance the adoption of precision-irrigation and other water saving
technologies (More crop per drop), enhance recharge of aquifers and
introduce sustainable water conservation practices by exploring the
feasibility of reusing treated municipal waste water for peri-urban
agriculture and attract greater private investment in precision irrigation
system.

6.9 Scheme/Modue -9 Saura Jalanidhi

Odisha Government has launched Saura Jalnidhi scheme to encourage use
of solar energy in irrigation by farmers. The scheme was launched as part
of state government’s endeavor to increase the use of solar photovoltaic
pump sets in those areas so that irrigation facilities can be provided where
power system is poor.

17
7. Salient features of other Central & State Govt. sponsored
Schemes/Programmes

KALIA Yojana
The government of Odisha will provide financial assistance of Rs.25, 000/- per farm family
over five seasons. These financial aid will given for 5 Cultivation process such as
Assistance of Cultivation– Under this KALIA Yojana benefit of financial assistance Rs.25,
000/- Per family is provided by government over five seasons (Rabi to Kharif season). The
objective of giving financial assistance is for seeds, fertilizers, pesticides and use assistance
towards labour and other investments.
Assistance for Livelihood- Financial Assistance of Rs.12,500/-will be provided to each
landless Agricultural Household for Agricultural allied activities like for small goat rearing
unit, mini-layer unit, duckery units, fishery kits for fisherman, mushroom cultivation and bee-
keeping, etc. This will particularly benefit to SC & ST population of our State.
Assistance for Vulnerable Agricultural Household– The financial assistance of Rs.
10,000/- per family per year will be provided by government of odisha to enable them to take
care of their Livelihood.

KALIA Yojana Insurance

Life insurance of Rs 2 Lakh will also provide under the KALIA Yojana Benefits. This Life
insurance will be provided to all savings bank account holder of age between 18-50 years at a
very nominal premium of Rs 330/-. In the total premium amount Government will pay the half
share of total premium Rs 165/-.

BGREI,
The state government has decided to implement the Bringing Green Revolution to Eastern
India (BGREI) scheme in 22 districts in the current fiscal, instead of 16 districts covered
under the scheme last year.

In the new list, the government has added nine districts while dropping three districts -
Deogarh, Jharsuguda and Kandhamal. The newly included districts are Bolangir, Boudh,
Ganjam, Jajpur, Kendrapara, Mayurbhanj, Nayagarh, Nabarangpur and Sambalpur.

The 16 districts where the scheme will continue are Balasore, Bargarh, Bhadrak, Cuttack,
Deogarh, Dhenkanal, Gajapati, Jagatsinghpur, Jharsuguda, Khurda, Kandhamal, Puri,
Kalahandi, Koraput, Rayagada and Subarnapur.

The government of India has approved allocation of Rs 184 crore for Odisha under the
scheme. The funding would be equally shared by both the state and the Union government. In
2014-15, Odisha utilised Rs 178.21 crore under BGERI, recording 100 per cent achievement
in interventions like crop demonstration, asset building, catering to site specific need and
providing marketing support. For current fiscal, some new programmes such as
demonstration in clusters, cropping based training and site specific activities are planned.

18
NFSM

The State Government has prepared a Rs 850-crore draft project proposal under the National
Food Security Mission (NFSM) for placing before the Centre for funding. The objective of
the mission is to increase production and productivity of rice and pulses in 21 of 30 districts
of the State in a sustainable manner.

The other objectives are to enhance farm level economy, restore confidence among farmers
and create employment opportunities.

While 15 districts will be covered under NFSM for rice, 10 districts have been chosen for
increased production of pulses. While Balangir, Kalahandi, Keonjhar and Nayagarh will be
covered under the mission both in rice and pulses, the districts covered under NFSM in pulses
include Bargarh, Cuttack, Ganjam, Khurda, Puri and Rayagada.

The project, to be implemented during the 11th Plan period , is expected to cover 20 lakh
hectares for rice cultivation and 13.57 lakh hectares for pulses. The State has planned to
increase yield of rice from 1,690 kg per hectare in 2007-08 to 2,095 kg per hectare by 2011-
12 in the mission districts.

The estimated production of rice in the mission districts will increase from 33 lakh tonnes to
42 lakh tonnes. It has projected to enhance the productivity of pulses from 478 kg per hectare
in 2007-08 to 594 kg per hectare in 2011-12. The low yield of rice in the State is due to
several factors.

While more cultivable areas are under rainfed conditions, the kharif and rabi crops are totally
dependent on monsoon rains. Lack of farm mechanisation, improved technology, training of
farmers, soil management, pest management and non-availability of quality seeds are the
other factors for low productivity.

The Centre will provide full financial assistance and the fund will be utilised for introduction
of hybrid seeds, scientific management of problematic soil, pest management, farm
mechanisation, training of farmers, Agriculture Director Arabinda Padhee said. The
Government has projected to spend Rs 650 crore for rice production and Rs 200 crore for
improved farming of pulses.

9.0 Experience gained from involvement in the programme
RAWE is an exposure programme conduction to make the agricultural student acquired with
the real field situation. To taste the feasibility of knowledge, gain during class room teaching
and its application in the farmer's field.

From orientation programme to till submission of report every moment in RAWE has been
existing, exploring, enlightening, enriching, adventurous, and unforgettable .

The following aspect of RAWE help me a lot

 Improved communication skilled by interaction with the host farmer and other farmer
during the village activities and also during the presentation of map in the class room,
training, demonstration, exhibitions and other extensions activities.

 Feedback and interaction with the farmers and guidance and suggestions of our multi
