<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Indian farming sector has taken huge hit during initial days of lock down due to corona virus.This was majorly due to the disruption in supply chain network.Many farmers were worrying how to sell their farm products.But eventually it turns out to be huge opportunity for those farmers who know how to tun the situation positively. Even though the supply chain network is disrupted,there exists a huge demand from consumer side for essential farm products.The consumers are even worried about the shortage of such products.So through this post we will discuss how to we can take care of this situation.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Majority people in the supply chain are Brokers and commission agents.The profits which are supposed to be reached in the hands of farmers were eaten by these people.Now supply chain is disrupted ,means those people are not in the field.So if farmers can establish a link to consumers,they have got a permanent business opportunity.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Fish farmers are having huge opportunity in this situation</b>.There is a huge shortage of fish items especially sea fish products during lock down. This shortage is present especially distant areas from sea shore.Fish farmers in this area can utilise this opportunity.They can replace the existing demand with fresh water fish supply from their farm.Huge local consumer demand exists in their area.The thing is that they need to understand this and act accordingly.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Fish farmers can form a group or work individually.Forming a group will be more beneficial in long term.They need to make use of social media platforms like facebook, whatsapp groups to connect with consumers in their area.they need to arrange a home delivery system locally.Since cheap labour is readily available now due to lock down,this will not be a problem for those who are determined.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">You can commit home delivery on fixed dates with fixed quantity and you need to ensure whatever you commit you will fulfil.From customer point of view,they are getting huge relief as their worry of not getting fish product is solved.Also you will be delivering to their doorstep during this lock down at reasonable price.You need to have a long term view to sustainability of your business even after lock down.If you meet the expectations of your customers,eventually they will form a habit of getting the products to their doorstep from you.They will not search anywhere else.You can route other farm products also through this channel at later stage.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">So this lock down is a huge opportunity for farmers to capture supply chain network and control their network.Middle men will be removed and farming will become profitable.Customers also get healthy farm products at reasonable price directly from farm.This is applicable for all sectors of farming.Fish farmers should take initiative in this,because demand is always there for their products.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">During this Corona virus lock down situation, farmers in India are facing serious challenges in selling their products and continuing their farming activities.Continuing farming activities in such situations are difficult but if you already had implemented below suggestions given earlier in this blog,you can easily this situation.Below are the posts which will help you in this</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>1)Liquidity issue:</b>Not only farmers,all the businesses are facing cash crunch during this lock down.If you have saved your Emergency fund,you can easily manage this situation.We had given detailed post on this subject:<a href="https://fancypigeonskerala.blogspot.com/2020/01/farmers-finance-build-emergency-fund.html" target="_blank">Emergency Fund</a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>2)Track your Income and Expenses:</b>You should track your Income and expenses daily.Take necessary action to eliminate or postpone the Expenses part till the situation comes to normal.You can think of opportunities to increase the income part.Detailed post was given in this post:<a href="https://fancypigeonskerala.blogspot.com/2019/12/farmers-finance-track-your-income-and.html" target="_blank">Track your Income and Expenses</a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>3)Farmers Co-operative Societies:</b>Existing farmers co-operative societies can easily tide over this situation.They can attract bulk buyers easily and can arrange transportation of farm materials easily.Individual farmers are facing much difficulty in such activities.We had suggested about forming farmers associations in many posts.One such post (The post is regarding Onion farming,but you can apply it anywhere)is given in the link :<a href="https://fancypigeonskerala.blogspot.com/2019/12/onion-farming-in-india.html" target="_blank">Farmers co-operative Societies</a>.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">If you have not done any of this,still you have got opportunities</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Realisation is the greatest teacher.</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>You have got the Greatest business opportunity</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It is proved that local shops and online delivery stores are the greatest business opportunities in this situation.During Lock down people were heavily depending on these modes of businesses.Online stores failed in some areas due to logistic issues but are doing great work in city areas.Local stores are doing their best to cop up with the surge in demand.Farmers are having great business opportunity here.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Take these steps immediately within a week</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">1)Form a group of five to six farmers having similar business mind.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">2)Take orders from local shops which are selling your farm products.OR take orders from consumers directly(Homes/flates in your nearby area)</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">3)Use social media like WhatsApp ,facebook groups to get orders and information regarding available items to sell.Arrange delivery.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">4)Use cash on delivery or Digital payment methods.Digital payment methods are recommended.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">5)Forming farmers group will help you to overcome any challenge you face in this situation.Biggest challenge will be logistics,which you can overcome with a group of farmers by contacting local authorities.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">If you can execute these steps,you have done a very good service to the society in this tough situation.If you ensure daily service with reliability and trust,you can continue this business even after lock down. You must understand that difficult situations give birth to greatest opportunities.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Note: You must check the current Lock down situation in your area before venturing in to the business.You must take approval from local authorities so that you will not face any legal issues.Considering this situation,most of the authorities will give approval for home delivery of farm items if the condition permits.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Many crop farmers and individuals who want to start Honey Bee farming(Apiculture) don't know how to start beekeeping and many Government subsidies/schemes for promoting beekeeping. Through this post I will provide you information that will help to to know where to start and what to do next.The first thing you need to understand is that Honey Bee Farming is not for everyone.Only those who are passionate about Bees can succeed in this area.Those who are willing to study more about Honey Bees will navigate successfully through this farm business.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Get Trained </b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">This is the most important step towards starting a Honey Bee Farming Business.You can contact your nearest Krishi Bhavan,KVK,Agriculture Universities,Khadi Board,National Bee Board for getting the training programs they conduct and enrol yourself in such training programs.By attending such programs,you will actually experience Beekeeping and you can understand whether you can go for it or not.You will be getting all the experience of various equipments used in Beekeeping and contact information of various suppliers of such equipment.Apart from various scientific aspects of Honey Bee farming,usually at the end of such programs,you will get opportunity to purchase Bee colonies ,equipments,Bee Boxes etc.Opportunity to build a network of Home Bee Farmers is an added advantage of such programs.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Maintenance and Running the Business</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Major challenges of Honey Bee Farming is farm maintenance,splitting of Bee Colonies,curing diseases,Monsoon care etc.Also you need to ensure enough Market for your Honey.Contacting your fellow farmers,trainer frequently and Building your Network and keeping it live will help you in all these aspects.You can market your Honey through various government programs and Ayurvedic medicine manufacturers.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Kisan credit card(KCC) scheme was introduced by Government of India in 1998 to ensure easy credit availability to farmers from Banks.This scheme was not very popular during initial years due to various reasons mainly less interest shown by Banks due to NPA issues.But after the push from current government and RBI,it is mandatory for banks to show some part of their loan book as Agricultural loan.For domestic scheduled commercial banks(like SBI,Indian bank,Bank of India,Syndicate Bank,ICICI Bank,Federal Bank etc) they should show 18% of the total outstanding loan as Agricultural loan.A sub limit of 8 % is allocated for small and marginal farmers.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Kisan Credit card is one of the smartest way to ensure reach of easy Agricultural loan facility to farmers.It facilitates farmers to purchase Agricultural inputs such as Seeds,Fertilisers,Pesticides etc and use cash for their day to day farm expenses.It also ensures credit availability for post harvest expenses.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">An ATM Enabled Rupay Debit card will be provided for farmers who successfully join KCC. A flexible amount from 10000 to 50000 is provided for marginal farmers(Farmers with landholding up to 1 Hectare) as Flexi KCC. The KCC limit is to be fixed for 5 years.The amount can be revised whenever need arises and farmers can approach bank in such scenarios.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">For small farmers(Landholding 1 to 2 Hectares) and other large farmers up to 3 lakh loan is available.Above 1.6 Lakhs, collateral security is to be provided. Upto 1.6Lakhs,No such security is required.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">The Main attraction of this Credit facility is that the interest rate is 7% only.Apart from this, 3% interest subvention is provided for prompt repayment of the loan.This makes interest rate of Kisan Credit card 4% effectively.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><b>How to Apply for KCC</b></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">During Budget presentation on 1st February 2020,Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman announced that government will help 20 lakh farmers across the country to setup Solar Pumps in their barren lands.Farmers can sell the excess energy to grid for earning some extra income.This is a major proposal to promote Agriculture in barren land as well as Solar Energy production in remote areas.This scheme is provided under Pradhan Mantri Kisan Urja Suraksha evem Utthan Mahabhiyaan(PM KUSUM) Scheme.The scheme will help farmers living in barren areas to make their farm income sustainable.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">As per the guideline published earlier on 22 July 2019,following Components are covered in this Scheme.Detailed guideline(22 July 2019) is available by visiting <a href="https://mnre.gov.in/sites/default/files/webform/notices/KUSUMguidelines.pdf" target="_blank">mnre.gov.in </a>website.Please note that the guideline is old one and changes are there as per new announcement.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
</div>
<ul>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">10000 MW of decentralised ground mounted grid connected Renewable Power Plants of individual size up to 2 MW.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Installation of 17.50 lakh standalone solar powered Agriculture pumps of individual pump capacity up to 7.5 HP</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Solarisation of 10 lakh Grid Connected Agriculture Pumps of individual capacity up to 7.5 HP</span></li>
</ul>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">It is expected that farmer has to bear 10% of the total cost.60% cost will be given as Subsidy by Government(Central and state/UT) and 30% will be provided as Loan with low interest rate.There is a difference in percentage of Subsidy based on UT/State.</span><span style="font-size: large;">In primary analysis,it is clear that this move will help Government to address multiple issues through a single Scheme.Through this scheme,the "Anna dataa will become Urja dataa also".</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">One more announcement is that additional 15 Lakh farmers will get support from Government to convert their existing grid-connected Pumps to Solar Pumps.This will definitely boost the farm income as the solar energy is very cheap and farmers will get an opportunity to sell extra Energy with the help of Power Purchase Agreement.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Lots of positive recommendations are given in this budget for farmers.Requesting every farmer to keep in touch with nearby Government agencies such as Krishi Bhavan,KVK,Agriculture universities etc to get more detailed knowledge of these proposals and get benefited. </span></div>
