Rajasthan: Agriculture Statistics (Timely Reporting Scheme)

Timely Reporting Scheme supported by Indian Government is being executed in Rajasthan since 1972. In Timely Reporting Scheme, it is proposed to enter at swift, consistent and precise approximations of locale instantly after the sowing of primary crops that are, Rabi, Zaid and Kharif in Rajasthan on account of definite area listing in the chosen 20 % villages through trial survey. These approximations dole out the Government to evaluate agricultural predictions during the current year and to take rapid policy actions concerning agricultural fabrication, exports and imports of the agricultural productions.

 

The main ideas behind Timely Reporting Scheme are:

• To get hold of unswerving and statistically specific approximations of area of chief crops instantly after planting of crops is accomplished
• To get hold of the approximations of area of non-irrigated and irrigated crops disjointedly
• To get hold of the estimates of locale under diversities of crops
• To acquire the estimates of land consumption due to 9 fold categorization

 

Crop Inventory

The agricultural year in Rajasthan casing the period from July 1 to June 30 is separated into 3 parts:

• Kharif
• Zaid Rabi
• Rabi

 

Season	Crops
Kharif	Rice, Bajra, Jowar, Tur, Maize, Sesamum, Groundnut, Cotton, Castorseed, Soya bean, Sugarcane
Rabi	Wheat, Gram, Barley, Mustard and Rape, Taramira, Linseed
Zaid Rabi	Jowar, Maize, Bajra, Moong, Moth, Urad, Fruits, Chaula, Tobacco, Vegetables, Spices, Small millets, chillies,Fodder

 

Under Timely Reporting Scheme, approximations of area of major crops in Rajasthan are geared up on account of actual inventory done by Patwaries in a section of 20 % villages chosen by linear methodical variety.

 

Season	Crop Enumeration Stage
Kharif	September 01-08
Zaid Kharif	January 01 - 15
Rabi	January 16 - 23
Zaid Rabi	May 01 - 10
