 Monitoring unit of Centrally Sponsored Scheme “Assistance To State Poultry Farms in Northern Region."

          The centrally sponsored scheme- Assistance to State poultry farms including other species like Ducks, turkey, quails, guinea fowl etc. will now be implemented in all States and UTs. The pattern of assistance shall be 100% in the case of North Eastern States including Sikkim whereas it will be 80:20 in respect of other States between Center and State respectively at the rate of maximum Rs. 85.00 lakh for each farm. While calculating the State share, the cost of land and other inputs provided will also be included as their share. In existing premises of the State farms poultry guinea fowl, quail, turkey can also be taken as a new activity. The scheme will also apply to the farms of the State Governments who may run in collaboration with cooperatives/private sector/NGOs etc. One time assistance is provided to suitably strengthen them in terms of hatching, brooding and rearing of the birds with provision for feed mill and their quality monitoring and in-house disease diagnostic facilities. These farms will strictly maintain the parent stock of low input technology birds identified by this department in consultation with ICAR and State Government. Necessary in built provision has been made in the proposal for revolving fund for purchase of replacement breeding stock, feed ingredients, transportation, medicines and vaccines etc. The amount so spent has to be recouped from the sale proceeds of eggs, chicks and culled birds etc. and may be in turn used for the farm year after year making it a financially self-sufficient unit.

          Under the scheme “Assistance to State Poultry Farms” necessary instructions have been issued to all States and UTs to select women in group as the beneficiaries for distribution of day old poultry birds of low input technology, which can survive at the women farmers’ door.
