Additional Info

 NMSA derives its mandate from Sustainable Agriculture Mission which is one of the eight
Missions outlined under National Action Plan on Climate Change (NAPCC). It aims to promote
sustainable agriculture through a series of adaptation measures focusing on ten key
dimensions encompassing Indian agriculture namely; ‘Improved crop seeds, livestock and fish
cultures’, ‘Water Use Efficiency’, ‘Pest Management’, ‘Improved Farm Practices’, ‘Nutrient
Management’, ‘Agricultural insurance’, ‘Credit support’, ‘Markets’, ‘Access to Information’ and
‘Livelihood diversification’.

Rainfed Area Development (RAD):

(RAD)

 This component will introduce appropriate farming systems by integrating multiple

components of agriculture such as crops, horticulture, livestock, fishery, forestry with agro
based income generating activities and value addition. Besides, soil test/soil health card
based nutrient management practices, farmland development, resource
resource conservation and
crop selection conducive to local agro climatic condition will also be promoted under this
component. A cluster based approach of 100 hectare or more may be adopted to derive
noticeable impact of convergence and encourage local participation
participation and for future
replication of the model in larger areas.
 RAD clusters should have soil analysis/soil health card/soil survey maps to justify the
interventions prposed and at least 25% of the farming system area will have to be covered
under On Farm m Water Management.
