The following programme/scheme is covered under promotion of Crops Diversification and Water Conservation:- (i) Mera Pani Meri Viraasat During Kharif 2020, Govt. of Haryana had launched a unique initiative “Mera Pani Meri Virasat” to diversify the Paddy Crop (water guzzling crop) into alternative less water consuming crops like Maize, Cotton, Bajra, Pulses, Vegetables and Fruits. Under the “MPMV”, assistance @7000/acre is being provided to the farmers who have replaced their paddy crop with alternate crops. The Scheme was further strengthened in Kharif 2021 with additional alternate crops like Kharif Oilseeds (Til, Castor, Groundnut), Kharif Onion, Kharif Pulses (Moth, Urd, Guar, Soyabean), fodder crops. In Kharif 2021 another initiative was inclusion of fallow land in this scheme. Farmers who kept their land fallow in place of paddy for improvement of soil health were also allowed for incentive in Kharif 2021(Khet Khali Phir Bhi Khushhali). During Kharif, 2021 Bajra crop was dropped from the ambit of alternate crops. Due to concerted efforts of the State Government, an approximate 25,600 hectare land 20,752 hectare area was diversified from paddy to other alternate crops and the State Government has provided incentives of Rs. 45 crores and Rs. 36 crores during 2020 & 2021, respectively. The Scheme was further strengthened in Kharif 2022 by inclusion of Agro-Forestry (Poplar and Eucalyptus) in the ambit of alternate crops. During Kharif, 2022 an area of 37956 hectare was registered against the targets of 40000 hectare and an area of 23560 hectare has been verified. During the Kharif 2022 the State Government has provided incentives of Rs. 41.23 crore. During Kharif, 2023 an area of 28370 hectare has been registered against the targets of 48000 hectare and an area of 14345 hactare has been verified. The Scheme has been further continued in Kharif 2024, with a target of 80000 hactare diversification of paddy into other alternative crops. During this current year through online registration an area of 26260 hectare is registered.
How this was judged a scheme rather than a budget head
A state budget book lists colleges, directorates and building heads beside schemes.
This row scored 1 on published signals: the provision is establishment money, not works.
It does NOT clear the higher bar this register uses before saying a scheme is hidden from citizens, so it is listed here and not named there. Listing a budget head as a scheme is an annoyance; naming one as hidden would be a false accusation, and the two are not the same claim.
