Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana I. Introduction The major objective of Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchayee Yojana (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 (Per Drop More Crop), 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. II. Components and responsible ministries/departments 1. Accelerated Irrigation Benefit Programme (AIBP) by Ministry of Water Resources, Rural Development and Ganga Rejuvenation (MoWR, RD & GR): To focus on faster completion of ongoing major and medium irrigation projects including national projects. 2. PMKSY (Har Khet Ko Pani) by MoWR, RD & GR: Creation of new water sources through  Minor irrigation (both surface and ground water).  Repair, restoration and renovation of water bodies; construction rain water harvesting structures.  Command area development, strengthening and creation of distribution network from source to the farm.  Improvement in water management and distribution system for water bodies to take advantage of available source, which is not utilised to its fullest capacity. 3. PMKSY (Watershed) by Department of Land Resources (DoLR) and Ministry of Rural Development (MoRD): To create water harvesting structures.  Capacity building, entry point activities, ridge area treatment, drainage line treatment, soil and moisture conservation, nursery raising, afforestation, horticulture, livelihood activities for the asset-less persons and production system and micro-enterprises for small and marginal farmers.  Effective rainfall management through practices like field bunding, contour bunding, land levelling and mulching. 4. PMKSY (Per Drop More Crop) by Department of Agriculture and Cooperation, Ministry of Agriculture (MoA) Programme management, preparation of State/District Irrigation Plan, approval of annual action plan, monitoring etc.  Promoting efficient water conveyance and precision water application devices like drips and sprinklers in the farm (Jal Sinchan).  Topping up of input cost particularly under civil construction beyond permissible limit (40%), under MGNREGS for activities like lining inlet, outlet, silt traps distribution system etc.



   

Secondary storage structures at tail end of canal system to store water when available in abundance (rainy season) through effective on-farm water management. Water lifting devices like diesel/ electric/ solar pump-sets including water carriage pipes. Extension activities for promotion of scientific moisture conservation and agronomic measures (Jal Sarankshan). Awareness campaign on water saving technologies, practices, programmes etc. Improved/innovative distribution system like pipe and box outlet system with controlled outlet and other activities of enhancing water use efficiency.

III. District Irrigation Plans (DIPs) District Irrigation Plan (DIP) shall be the cornerstone for planning and implementation of PMKSY. DIP will identify the gaps in irrigation infrastructure after taking into consideration the District Agriculture Plans (DAPs) already prepared for Rashtriya Krishi Vikas Yojana (RKVY) vis-à-vis irrigation infrastructure currently available and resources that would be added during XII Plan from other ongoing schemes (both State and Central), like Mahatma Gandhi National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (MGNREGS), Rashtriya Krishi Vikash Yojana (RKVY), etc. The gaps identified under Strategic Research and Extension Plan (SREGP) are to be used in preparation of DIP. IV. Methodology During preparation of District Irrigation Plan (DIP) the team visited the districts to collect data and have interaction with all the stakeholders, which is compiled in the District Irrigation Plan. Methodology adopted to prepare DIP is outlined in brief as under:  Collection of primary and secondary data from multiple sources including Season and Crop Reports, Statistical Handbook, District Census Handbook.  Meetings with state government departments and related institutions were held.  Discussions were held with officers of Agriculture department (AD), Horticulture department (HD), Sub Division Soil Conservation office, Agriculture Technology Management Agency (ATMA), Animal Husbandry department, Water Resource department and identified the key issues and key focus areas of the region. Based on detailed discussions and analysis of data, the team arrived at the projections of various components of PMKSY and department-wise plan for five years (2017-18 to 2021-22).

Chapter I General Information 1.1 District profile Amritsar district is located in northern part of Punjab state and lies between 31o 28’ 30” to 32o 03’ 15” N latitude and 74o 29’ 30” to 75o 24’ 15” E longitude (Table 1.1). Total area of the district is 2636 sq km. It is bounded by district Tarn Taran in the South, Kapurthala in district South-East and Gurdaspur in the N-E. It also shares international boundary with Pakistan on its Western side. Amritsar I, Amritsar II, Baba Bakala and Ajnala are four tehsils, whereas Majitha, Attari, Tarsikka, Lopoke and Ramdas are subtehsils in the district. There are nine development blocks namely Ajnala, Chogawan, Harsha Chhina, Jandiala Guru, Majitha, Rayya, Tarsikka, Verka and Attari. The total population of the district is 2490656 as per 2011 census. Amritsar district falls between river Ravi and Beas. Net area irrigated in the district is 2165.55 sq km and percentage of net area irrigated to net area sown is 100 per cent. Major canal in the area is Upper Bari Doab Canal which give rise to various branches as Lahore Branch, Kasur Branch etc. these canals further feed their distributaries. The climate of the district is classified as tropical, semi arid and hot which is mainly dry with very hot summer and cold winter except during south-west monsoon season. There are four seasons in a year namely cold season from November to March, hot season from April to June, south-west monsoon season from last week of June to mid September and post monsoon season from September to beginning of November. During cold season, series of western disturbances affect the climate of the district. The normal annual rainfall of the district is 680 mm, unevenly distributed over approximately 31 rainy days. The south-west monsoon, contributing 75 per cent of annual rainfall, sets in last week of June and withdraws in middle of September. Rest 25 per cent of rainfall occurs in the non monsoon months in the wake of western disturbances and thunder storms. The rainfall increases from south-west to north-eastern part of the district.

Fig.1.2 Number of households 1.3 Biomass and livestock Water plays an important role in livestock productivity. Livestock productivity depends greatly on the availability of fodder and water. There are several factors, which determine water balance, water turnover and functions of the animal. Assessment of livestock and water requirement is helpful in modelling water and livestock relationships. The demand for meat, dairy products and eggs rises faster than the demand for crops. Thus, both the scenario call for livestock production to increase relatively more rapidly than crops. There are 90283 poultry birds and 551783 animals in the district (Table 1.3). There are 17032 small animals and 534751 large animals. The block-wise distribution of different animal species has been given in Table 1.3 and the percentage of each animal species in comparison to total number of animals (551783) for the district has been given in Fig. 1.3.

The agro-ecology supports production of both, a huge quantity and diversity of good quality of food, clothing and medicinal crops, together with family utilization and the market for economic and nutritionally at risk populations. Sustainable agricultural practices have to tackle the conservation of biodiversity, enhanced ecological functions, social tolerance, self-reliance, fairness, improved quality of life and economic productivity of crops and live-stock. Sustainability of agriculture is viewed critically from the point of food and ecological security at the regional scale. The weather parameters have great effect on agro-ecology by affecting the micro-environment. The normal mean monthly maximum and minimum temperature and total monthly rainfall at Amritsar are given in Fig. 1.4 and Table 1.4. Rainfall (mm)

Fig.1.5 Surface water-body map B.1.4 Topography: The whole of the Amritsar district is composed of the recent deposits known collectively as the Indo-Gangetic alluvium, which consists of the alluvial sand, clay and loam. Apart from the clay used for brick-making, the concretionary form of calcium carbonate, known as Kankar, is found in beds generally at a slight depth below the surface at the upper margin of the impermeable sub-soil, from where it is excavated to form material for 5

road making. It is massive, hard and compact nodular calcareous material light grey to dark grey. Sand, silt and clay are found associated with Kankar. In general, its thickness varies from a few centimeters to that of a metre. It occurs mostly in the form of isolated beds and pockets. It can be used for white washing and road metalling. Some brick earth and foundry sands are reported from the district. Lying between the river Beas to the east and the river Ravi to the west, the Amritsar district forming the lower part of the Upper Bari Doab, is one of the interfluvial tracts of the Punjab Plain. The river Beas, which separates the Amritsar district from the Kapurthala district, joins the Satluj river near the point where the four districts i.e. Lahore (Pakistan), Ferozepur, Amritsar and Kapurthala meet. Surface water body map for the district is given in Fig. 1.5. C.1.4 Geomorphology: Geomorphology map for district Amritsar (Fig.1.6) reveals that flood plains are there in blocks Ajnala and Chogawan . As one proceeds toward block Harsha Chhina from these two blocks there are younger alluvial plains followed by piedmont alluvial plains in all the blocks of the district. Palaeo-channels exist in the blocks Verka, Majitha, Jandiala Guru and Tarsikka.

Fig. 1.7 Drainage network map 1.5 Drainage network The whole of the district has large number of drains as given in the district drainage map (Fig. 1.7). 1.6 Soil characteristics Soil is the end product of the parent material resulting from the consistent influence of climate, topography and the natural vegetation over a long period of time. The soil texture map (Fig. 1.8) reveals that the soil texture in blocks of Ajnala, Majitha and Rayya is silt loam. Whereas, soil texture in the blocks viz., Chogawan, Jandiala Guru, Harsha Chinna, Verka, Tarsikka is characterized by sandy loam, sandy loam and loam, loam and sandy loam, loam and silt, respectively.

1.7 Lithology The lithology map of the district (Fig. 1.9) depicts that the outer boundaries of blocks Ajnala, Chogawan and Rayya have sand/silt dominated alluvium plains. Ajnala and Chogawan also have sand/silt and clay dominating alluvium beds. The clay dominant alluvium (Aeolian) represent the rest of the district area.

Fig. 1.9 Lithology map 1.8 Land use pattern The land use pattern for district Amritsar has been given in Fig. 1.10 and Table 1.5. The

Fig. 1.10 Land use map 8

data in Table 1.5 show that the gross cropped area of the district is 428725 ha, out of which net area sown is 216555 ha and area sown more than once is 212170 ha. The cropping intensity of the district is 198 per cent. There is not much variation in cropping intensity of various blocks as compared to district average. The proportion of geographical area and net sown area in different blocks as compared to the whole district has been presented in Fig. 1.11.

Chapter II District Water Profile Punjab is predominantly an agrarian state having nearly 83 per cent of the State’s geographical area under cultivation. Out of the total irrigation, about 70 per cent of irrigation is done by groundwater through tube-wells and the remaining 30 per cent by canal system. Dependence on ground water for agriculture has increased enormously resulting in decline of water table in 85 per cent of the area of the State where ground water quality is mostly fresh and fit for irrigation. With the falling water table, the farmers are forced to deepen the tube wells and to replace centrifugal pumps with submersible pumps, resulting in high initial investment and additional recurring expenditure for more power consumption and maintenance. Thus, the economy of the state and well being of farmers and their socioeconomic development depends to a larger extent on the availability of sufficient water. 2.1 Area distribution of crops The data in Table 2.1 reveal that the whole of the area under various Kharif and Rabi crops in the district is irrigated. There is no summer season crop grown in the district. In the Kharif season, out of total cropped area (202750 ha), 113333 ha was under basmati rice (Table 2.2) and 63232 ha under rice. In blocks-Ajnala, Chogawan, Harsha Chinna, Attari, Verka, Jandiala Guru and Majitha, basmati rice occupies considerable acreage as compared to rice while in blocks-Tarsikka and Rayya reverse is the pattern for Basmati rice and rice. Maize is the 3rd ( coarse) cereal crop in the district on area basis. Mash, Moong and Arhar are the pulse crops and sesame as the oilseed crop in all the blocks. The percentage of area under different crops in relation to the total Kharif cropped area for the district has been presented in Fig. 2.1. The block-wise area under different crops in the district for Rabi season has been given in Table 2.3. During Rabi season wheat (188015 ha) followed by fodder crops (15391 ha) occupy the major acreage from the total Rabi season cropped area (208846 ha). Lentil is the main pulse crop (251 ha) in all the blocks. There is some area under gram (21 ha) in Verka, Majitha, Tarsikka and Rayya blocks. Rajmash has also been introduced in Verka and Jandiala Guru blocks (13 ha). Mustard is the main oilseed crop of the district (1603 ha). In all the blocks, large acreage is put under vegetables, peas and celery. Potato is grown over an area of 436 ha in Attari, Verka, Jandiala Guru, Majitha, Tarsikka and Rayya blocks of the district. Sugarbeet (206 ha) is also grown in blocks - Chogawan, Harsha Chhina, Tarsikka and Rayya. The percentage of area under different crops in relation to the total Rabi cropped area for the district has been presented in Fig. 2.2.

Chapter IV Water Demand 4.1 Domestic water demand The ever increasing population in India is exerting serious pressure on water supply services. The quantum of water consumed by people in most of the Indian cities is not adequate. People try to adjust with the quantity of water supplied to them. The main source of water in most of the cities of Punjab is groundwater. The groundwater table is, thus, depleting at an alarming rate due to increasing pressure on the available water sources. The basic need of life is likely to surpass the scarcity of many other commodities so as to become a great challenge to meet increased demand for water. Total population of district Amritsar in 2017 ( Census,2011) was 24,90,656 (Table 4.1) which is projected to be 2696389 by 2021. Average per capita domestic water requirement is 135 litres per day. Based on this information, the present water demand for whole district in 2017 has been taken as 122.729 MCM. The projected domestic water demand by 2021 is expected to be132.865 MCM. Table 4.1 Block-wise domestic water demand Name of the block Present Future 2021 Population* Water Demand Population* Water (MCM) Demand (MCM) Ajnala 158157 7.793 171221 8.437 Chogawan 220836 10.882 239078 11.781 Harsha Chhina 95260 4.694 103129 5.082 Attari 370967 18.280 401610 19.789 Verka 719521 35.455 778955 38.383 Jandiala Guru 129378 6.375 140064 6.902 Majitha 150271 7.405 162684 8.016 Tarsikka 129367 6.375 140053 6.901 Rayya 516898 25.470 559595 27.574 Total 2490656 122.729 2696389 132.865 *Excluding children below 6 years 4.2 Crop water demand The major consumption of water has been for irrigation. With the continuous growth of population, urbanization and industrialization, the demand for water is increasing day by day. Therefore, ensuring the efficiency in water management and consumption is a dire necessity. The block-wise and individual crop-wise water demand for various blocks of district Amritsar worked out on the basis of crop evapo-transpiration (ET) and irrigation demand has been given in Annexure I(a-d). The consolidated ET and irrigated needs have been reflected in Table 4.2 and Fig. 4.1. The block-wise proportion of ET and irrigation needs in 30

comparison to the district have been presented in Fig. 4.2 and 4.3, respectively. The data reveal that total ET need of the district is 2065.894 MCM out of which 1181.619 MCM is required in Kharif while 884.275 MCM in Rabi. On the basis of irrigation needs the district requires 3029.117 MCM water out of which 2163.276 MCM is required in Kharif and 865.841 MCM in Rabi.

Data in Table 4.7 indicate that the total water availability in the district is 1888.429 MCM, where as the demand (including crop ET needs) is 2219.080 MCM. The corresponding value for the year 2021 will be 2231.305 MCM . Thus, the present and the future (year 2021) deficit in water availability and demand has been calculated as 330.651 MCM and 342.876 MCM, respectively. On the basis of the present water demand the blocks follow the order Ajnala >Chogawan >Rayya-Verka >Tarsikka >Attari >Harsha Chhina > Majitha >Jandiala Guru. Presently, maximum deficit (106.766 MCM) in water availability is in block Attari followed by block Ajnala, Chogawan (89.487 MCM) and Rayya (46.362 MCM). The blocks-Jandiala Guru (-27.854 MCM) and Majitha (-27.738 MCM) have surplus water availability.

Chapter V Irrigation Plan Water is one of the most valuable resources. However, growing population, urbanization and industrialization has led to considerable increase in demand of water for various purposes e.g. irrigation, domestic needs, industrial requirements etc. The agriculture sector is the largest consumer of water resources in the developing countries. Assured supply of water is necessary for sustainable agriculture. However, farmers of our country are making irrational use of water. Though, water is a precious and scarce resource but its application and use--efficiencies have been quite low. Most of the irrigation projects operate at a low efficiency in the range 30–40 per cent, thereby losing 60–70 per cent of irrigation water during conveyance and application. Also, intensive agriculture and rice-wheat cropping pattern are prevalent in most areas of Indian Punjab. Lack of awareness among the farmers about the consequences of inefficient water application and lack of appropriate tools and instruments for regulated and uniform application of the desired quantity of water at the appropriate time are among the major causes of low water-use-efficiency at the field-level. This has ultimately led to a decline of the water resources. Farmers’ practices need to be critically observed and modified taking into view the perceptions, concerns and constraints of the farmers in adopting better tools and techniques. Immediate steps should be taken for efficient and judicious use of this resource like improved/innovative distribution system like pipe and box-outlet system with controlled outlet and other activities, water lifting devices like solar pump-sets, promoting precision water application devices like drips and sprinklers in the farm for enhancing water use efficiency as shown Fig. 5.1. 5.1 Prioritization of blocks and activity for strategic planning The prioritization is the heart of the programme in which any programme will be implemented. Some of the important activities are to be included in first phase or first year and some of the activities are to be included in last year or last phase. For prioritization of the blocks and activity following criteria has been adopted. 1. Map the present situation 2. Availability of resources 3. Ground water situation 4. Percentage of groundwater development A.5.1 Prioritization of blocks: On the basis of deficit in water availability, the blocksAttari (106.766 MCM ) and Ajnala (105.082 MCM) can be considered as the most critical followed by Chogawan (89.487 MCM) , Rayya (46.362 MCM) and Verka (31.343 MCM). Tarsikka (3.695 MCM) and Harsha Chhina (3.508 MCM ) are on the margin. The blocks Jandiala Guru (-27.854 MCM) and Majitha (-27.738 MCM) with surplus water availability can be considered as safe for the time being.

B.5.1 Prioritization of activties: Based on the total benefits, the various components can be prioritized in the order, 'Per Drop More Crop' > 'Har Khet Ko Pani' > 'Watershed' > MGNREGA' (Table 5.1 and 5.3a). 5.2 District strategic action plan for irrigation On the basis of detailed discussions and analysis of data, the team arrived at the projections of various components of PMKSY and Department wise plan for five years from 2017-18 to 2021-22. The details of proposed activities under various components, their total cost, expected benefits in terms of electricity/productivity/ decrease in water withdrawal/ increase in groundwater recharge and B:C ratio have been given in Table 5.1. It is evident from Table 5.1 that projects with a total outlay of Rs. 275.377 crores have been planned for district Amritsar out of which newly proposed projects will cost Rs. 139.997crore and an amount of Rs. 135.380 crores has been added for the ongoing projects.

5.3 Benefits of district strategic action plan for irrigation Component-wise benefit statement for district strategic action plan for irrigation has been presented in Table 5.3a. The projects proposed under the component 'Per Drop More Crop' will result in maximum decrease in water withdrawal/ increase in groundwater recharge (355.860 MCM) followed by 'Har Khet Ko Pani' (32.320 MCM), ' Watershed' (9.734 MCM) and 'MGNREGA' (8.720 MCM) there by resulting in total decrease in water withdrawal/ increase in groundwater recharge of 406.634 MCM.This decrease in water withdrawal/ increase in groundwater recharge will fill the deficit ( calculated on basis of crop ET needs) in availability - demand, both present (330.651 MCM) and future (342.876 MCM) along with a positive balance of 75.983 and 63.758 MCM to arrest the falling ground water table at present and in future times, respectively. In other words there will be less underground water withdrawal resulting in saving of electricity (needed to run tube-wells) to the tune of Rs. 235.665 crores. Under the component 'Per Drop More Crop' there will be increase in productivity value by Rs. 62.410 crores due to projects on drip irrigation system. On the whole the total benefits accruing from various projects proposed under different components of strategic plan are expected to be to the tune of Rs. 298.075 crores. Various components can be arranged as 'Per Drop More Crop' (Rs. 250.895 crores) >'Har Khet Ko Pani' (Rs. 32.997crores) >'Watershed' (Rs. 9.757 crores)> MGNREGA' (Rs. 4.426 crores) on the basis of total benefits. Whereas, on the basis of B:C ratio the components follow the order 'Per Drp More Crop' (3.72:1) > 'Watershed' (0.92:1) >'Har Khet Ko Pani' (0.69:1) >'MGNREGA' (0.32:1).

Conclusions and Recommendations Amritsar has been categorised among the central districts of the Punjab state. Total annual water demand in the district is 2219.080 MCM. Of this demand 654.779 MCM is met by surface water and rest is met through groud-water withdrawal. Presently the groundwater withdrawal for all uses in the district is 2221.160 MCM. Of this ground water withdrawal, only 1233.650 MCM (available ground water) water recharges the groundwater thus leaving a negative gap of 987.51 MCM between groundwater recharge and withdrawal . On the basis of water demand and availability also there is a gap of -330.651 MCM as only 1888.429 MCM water is available against the total demand of 2219.080 MCM in the district. Thus, all these facts point to the over-exploitation of ground water resources and are resulting in general ground water table decline. On the basis of deficit in water availability, the blocks- Attari (106.766 MCM ) and Ajnala (105.082 MCM) can be considered as the most critical followed by Chogawan (89.487 MCM) , Rayya (46.362 MCM) and Verka (31.343 MCM). Tarsikka (3.695 MCM) and Harsha Chhina (3.508 MCM ) are on the margin . The blocks Jandiala Guru (-27.854 MCM) and Majitha (-27.738 MCM) with surplus water availability can be considered as safe for the time being. The present District Irrigation Plan has been prepared with the objective of arresting the water table decline , improving water conveyance- and use-efficiency bringing more area under irrigation facility and improving the crop productivity at the smallest administrative unit i.e. the blocks in Districts of the State, . Therefore, the concerted efforts to demonstrate those proven technologies viz. laying underground pipeline, adoption of micro irrigation system, rain water harvesting structures, constructing rainwater recharging wells, renovation of village ponds and water saving technologies at farmers' fields, which will either decrease the ground water withdrawal or increase the ground water recharge, have been proposed. In the present District Irrigation Plan, projects with a total outlay of Rs. 275.377crores have been planned for District Amritsar out of which newly proposed projects will cost Rs. 139.997crores and an amount of Rs. 135.380 crores has been demanded for the ongoing projects. The various components of the district strategic action plan viz. 'Har Khet Ko Pani', 'Per Drop More Crop', 'Watershed' and 'MGNREGA' have been proposed with an outlay of Rs. 48.150, 67.530, 10.576 and 13.741crores, respectively. The various implementing agencies viz. DSWC, Horticulrure Department (HD), WRED(ID), forest department (FD) and RD have proposed projects with an outlay of Rs. 99.080, 1.050, 8.426, 0.160 and 13.741 crores, respectively.An outlay to the tune of Rs. 17.540 crores has been earmarked to implement new projects by State Agriculture Department (AD). In this budget a provision to the tune of Rs. 4.710 crores has been fixed during the first year itself for the purchase of implements which will be required by the AD to execute demonstrations on water saving technologies (PAU-recommended) at farmers' fields. This plan will result in total decrease in water withdrawal/ increase in groundwater recharge by 406.634 MCM and will further help in arresting the falling ground water table. In 48

other words there will be saving of electricity( needed to run tube-wells) to the tune of Rs. 235.665 crores. Projects on drip irrigation system will increase the productivity value by Rs. 62.410 crores. On the whole the total benefits accruing from this plan are expected to be to the tune of Rs. 298.075 crores. Various components can be arranged as 'Per Drop More Crop' (Rs. 250.895 crores) >'Har Khet Ko Pani' (Rs. 32.997crores) >'Watershed' (Rs. 9.757 crores)> MGNREGA' (Rs. 4.426 crores) on the basis of total benefits. On the basis of total benefits the various implementing agencies can be arranged as AD (Rs. 340.70 crores) >DSWC (Rs. 109.690 crores) >ID (Rs. 9.390 crores) >RD (Rs. 4.426 crores)>HD (Rs. 1.652 crores)>FD (Rs. 0.078 crores). The overall B:C ratio of the proposed projects is expected to be 2.13:1.
