Foreword
Area Based Scheme is an approach designed to develop specified geographical location

and the economic bankable activity through convergence of various stakeholders.
Nagaland RO of NABARD has formulated such schemes in Piggeries, Poultry and
Dairy for all eleven districts of the State.
Implementation of the schemes is expected to promote capital formation in agriculture

resulting in enhanced production leading to increase in farmers income.
The schemes give information about basic technical and financial parameters of the
activity which are of practical use to the bankers and the beneficiaries. It is expected
that the State Govt. on its part would provide the necessary extension services for
successfully implementing the same.
I hope that all the stakeholders would find the document useful. While extending
sincere thanks to the respective LDMs, bankers, Govt. Depts. and NGOs for providing
inputs for formation of the ADS, I also welcome suggestion for improving the contents.

AREA DEVELOPMENT SCHEME – 2018-23
PIGGERY DEVELOPMENT
DIMAPUR DISTRICT (NAGALAND) – DHANSIRIPAR BLOCK
1. Introduction
In Nagaland, pig rearing is a backyard activity undertaken by the majority populace

since pork meat is the most common diet and forms the part and parcel of their local
tradition and culture. Piggery activity is very much popular amongst the rural
households and sale of livestock gives good returns in times of need for money.
However, despite having popularity in pig rearing and pork consumption in the State,
there is huge shortage of pork meat production than the local demand for
consumption. As per Sample Survey Report of 2014-15, the State produced 66.68% of
the total requirement of livestock worth of Rs.1,673.35 crore leaving behind a shortfall
of 33.32 %.The gap is, therefore, bridged by supply of pigs from outside the State for
meat and as well as breeding purposes. The activity has got huge potential for
undertaking as Area Development Scheme since marketing of pigs and / or pork in the
local markets will not lead to any difficulties for the entrepreneurs / rearers.
As per the 19th Livestock Census 2012, the pig population of Nagaland State was
5,03,688 of which 75.59% (3,80,738) was cross breed (CB) and 24.41% (1,22,950) was
indigenous variety as per details given below:

Total no. of households (c+d) 10174 3624 13798
2. Forward and backward linkages
The Department has set targets to attain self-sufficiency in pork meat production with
focussed development of piggery activities in rural areas by the year 2030 including
supply to other States/ export to other countries. This will require production of
known variety of genetic female line from Nucleus Piggery Farm and availability of
superior boar semen through organised Artificial Insemination (AI) platform for
production of finishers pig. The Animal Husbandry & Veterinary Services, GoN in
collaboration with Sir Ratan Tata Trust is present implementing two interventions i.e.
pilot project on “Livelihood Initiative through Piggery activities in Nagaland“ (LitPiN)
and “Household Piggery Enterprise” covering Peren and Dimapur districts to increase
annual income of the households through improved farming practices.
There are 10(ten) nos. of functional pig farms, located in various places of 9 (nine)
district, except Kiphire and Longleng as given below, under the AH & VS in the State
from where cross breed piglets are made available to the farmers as parent stock for
breeding:

Aimed at the genetic trait of the existing pig population of the State, the GoN has
framed “Nagaland Pig Breeding Policy”. This was officially released on 6 August 2016
by the Union Minister of Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare. The policy would create a
positive environment for developing required infrastructure and technology and
thereby facilitating in production of appropriate pig breed, suitable to the small
farmers / entrepreneurs having limited resources and feasible to the agro-climatic
condition of Nagaland. The main objectives of the Policy are:
 Improve productivity through genetic upgradation of the existing pig

population of the State.
 Conserve indigenous germ plasm.
 Strengthen support mechanism particularly feed, housing and health care.
 Maintain pure germ plasm of exotic breeds to meet the requirement of the state.
 Ensure that the breeds propagated are adapted to local climatic conditions and
emerging climatic challenges
Under the National Livestock Mission (NLM), the Department is also taking up
various activities for strengthening and developing the piggery sector viz.
strengthening of pig breeding farms by way of repair and renovation, procurement of
improved breeding stock and health coverage by providing mineral mixtures and
vitamins.
In Dhansiripar block, pork meat is sold in the traditional rural markets located by the
road side which is not hygienic. However, the demand for pork meat with
remunerative price continues to be high as demand exceeds supply. Thus, increased
piggery activities would not lead to any difficulties in marketing of pigs and pork meat
in the local markers.

3. Selection of the area
Dhansiripar Block under Dimapur district has been selected for implementation of
Area Development Scheme (ADS) for“Pig Rearing cum Fattening” considering the
feasibility of the activity and the need felt to promote the piggery activity in a planned
manner, focussing on the existing and required infrastructure, stage of present
development, scope forincreasedcoverage of the activity, number of units to be set up,
support available from the State Government, credit linkage needed for expansion and
strengthening the activity, etc,. The benefits of ADS are as under:
 Convenient for planning with concrete strategies, implementation and

monitoring and review in the stakeholders meet and DCC / DLRC meetings.
 Visible impact of the development can be noticed which motivates and
encourages others for active involvement with the activity.
 Better utilisation of the existing underutilized existing infrastructures.
 Marketing of produces in collective manner with better bargaining power.
 Creates an enabling platform for formation of Producers organisation.
 Facility for capacity building of the project partners / farmers / entrepreneurs
on collective bargaining power for remunerative price realisation.
 Create demand for other supplementary / complementary activities to piggery
activities.
 The bankers find it convenient for ease of doing finance since individual project
appraisal is not warranted.
 It facilitates in establishing value chain in the processes of financing.
As per 2011 census, the total number of households in the block was 4386, majority of
whom are dependent on agriculture and allied activities for their livelihood. Presently,
State Bank of India, Bank of India and Bank of Baroda are catering to the banking
services in the block. Another positive factor witnessed in the block that all the villages
are connected by all-weather roads which facilitatesin transportation of livestock,
feeds, etc. for sale locally.
Rearing livestock, including pig, along with agriculture forms perfect basket of
activities for our small and marginal farmers. This will fulfill the requirement of
household consumption of pork meat and also as a source of additional income
through sale of pigs and pork meat thereby increasing income towards the goal for
doubling farmers’ income by the year 2022.
4. Selection of beneficiaries
For implementation of ADS, selection of beneficiaries to be done by the officials of

Nagaland State Rural Livelihood Mission (NSRLM) and AH and Vet Services will be
directly involved. This will facilitate in identification of genuine pig rearers in group or
individual mode and adoption of suitable technologies and management practices.
5. Training / Capacity building of the beneficiaries
In Dhansiripar block, pig rearing cum fattening is a popular activity where majority of
the farmers are already gained adequate skill on pig rearing. However, use of obsolete
and low quality inputs and poor livestock management practices resulted in low
production and productivity. To address this issue, the identified pig farmers will be
imparted capacity building training on scientific rearing and managementof pigs
including fodder cultivation to reduce the input cost. These programmes will be
5
conducted in collaboration with the line departments, KVK/ICAR, NSRLM, etc.
NABARD may also grant assistance, as per extant guidelines, for undertaking training
cum exposure visit to the pig farmers within and outside the State.
6. Partners in implementation, convergence of efforts & support from

State Govt.
Dhansiripar Block is the resource centre of NSRLM where good quality SHGs are
promoted and credit linked with their efforts. Their involvement with the ADS will
facilitate in identifying active pig farmers/ SHGs for deepening of the “SHG-Bank
Linkage Programme” (SHG-BLP)in the block. They may monitor on the proper end-
use of the credit, timely repayment of loans and facilitate to establish close relation
with the development agencies involved for convergence of their efforts/ programmes
on input supply, marketing support, training, exposure visit, etc.
7. Banking network and trends in credit flow
Under Service Area Approach (SAA), 11(eleven) bank branches viz. State Bank of India,
Bank of Baroda, Allahabad Bank, Vijaya Bank, etc., besides Nagaland StCB, are
assigned the responsibility of banking services in the block. With the awareness on
National Livestock Mission - Entrepreneurship Development and Employment
Generation (NLM-EDEG) created by NABARD, the banks/NGOs have since started
formation of Joint Liability Groups for implementation of the same smoothly.
8. Physical and financial programme
The number of “pig rearing cum fattening” units could be set up per village during the
Plan period of five years i.e. 2018-19 to 2022-2023 are given as under:

11. SWOT analysis
a. Strengths:
 Pig has the highest feed conversion efficiency and a variety of feedstuffs
can be used for conversion into pork meat.
 Pigs are prolific breeders and produces 6-12 piglets in each farrowing.
 Pig farming requires low investment on construction of building and
equipments.
 Pork is rich with fat content and better energy value than others.
 It is also rich in vitamins like thiamin, niacin and riboflavin.
b. Weaknesses:
 Majority of the pig farmers are taking up the activity on a small scale in
their backyard using traditional methods.
 Awareness on rearing with scientific methods and practices is low.
 Input supply like, Artificial Insemination facility, quality piglets, feeds,
insurance and veterinary services, etc. are inadequate.
 Lack of modern slaughter houses and hygienic retail outlets.
c. Opportunities:
 Pig farmers can earn additional income from sale of manure which is
usedas fertilizer in agriculture farms and fish ponds.
 Pig farming provides quick returns asaverage marketable weight of
fatteners can be achieved within a short period of 6 to 8 months.
 There is a growing demand from domestic as well as international
markets for pork, bacon, ham, sausages, lard, etc. This can boost meat
processing industries in the State.
d. Threats:
 Unregulated import of low quality animals from outside the State.

 Outbreak of diseases leading to culling of animals.
 Spread of new diseases, decline in fodder production / productivity, heat
stress, reduced size of litter and reduced availability of water due to the
effects of climate change.
12. Implementation strategy and monitoring mechanism
The ADS on pig rearing cum fattening:
 Cover all the 12 (twelve) recognised villages under Dhansiripar block of

Dimapur district.
 Involve the Nagaland State Rural Livelihood Mission (NSRLM) for targeted
intervention through group / individual mode.
 Credit linkage from banks to individuals and groups i.e. SHGs / JLGsfor
purchase of quality animals for rearing cum fattening purpose.
 Animal Husbandry & Veterinary Services, GoN will ensure availability of
quality animals, introduction of Artificial Insemination (AI), improving
housing, pig feed and management of health & diseases.
9
 ICAR, KVK Dimapur and veterinary clinics will provide reliable extension
services and capacity building of beneficiaries, including marketing linkages
wherever required.
 District Administration, Lead Bank and NABARD will monitor the progress vis-
à-vis ADS plan on a quarterly basis during the DCC meetings under the
Chairmanship of the Deputy Commissioner, Dimapur.
13. Ownership: The ADS has been formulated by NABARD in consultation with
various line departments, bankers, NSRLM and other stakeholders to realise the above
goal and objective. During the course of its implementation, every effort will be made
to ensure that an effective eco system is grounded and owned by all the stakeholders
to ensure uninterrupted credit flow from banks.

PIGGERY DEVELOPMENT
KIPHIRE DISTRICT (NAGALAND) – KIPHIRE & PUNGRO BLOCKS
1. Introduction:
Pig breeding and fattening is a major activity in the state where the local populace have
inherited the aptitude in a casual manner leading to the highest importer of pigs in the
country and North East Region both for meat and breeding purposes. The marketing
of meat is not organized rather sale pork mostly in rural haat and openly on road side.
Pork is sold in villages by slaughtering one or two animals once in a week or on special
occasions. The sale of skin, bristles, hoof, teeth, blood, etc. is done at low price. In
urban centres, hot meat is sold in open and regular or weekly markets displayed in
gunny bag, banana leafs or polythene sheet. There is no formal infrastructure for
slaughter and display meat cuts. This activity holds ample avenues of employment and
income generation.
The district has good potential for undertaking piggery where more than 95% people
are non-vegetarian. As per the Livestock Census of 2012, the total pig population of
the district is estimated at 43836. The livestock sector has a significant potential for
round the year employment generation particularly in rural areas of the district.
In view of the above, this Area Development Scheme and Banking plan has been
prepared by NABARD for implementation from 2018-19 to 2022-23 in Kiphire district
of Nagaland involving the bank branches in the district. Increasing the ground level
credit flow, capital formation in the sector and creating awareness about the scope for
financing various piggery activities are the major objectives of the plan.
2. Forward and backward linkages:

As per the Livestock Census 2012, pigs population in the district was 43836 out of
which indigenous bred was 21267. The district has a District Veterinary Office. The
extension facilities to farmers are available from the department in the district.
There is a need for establishment of big or medium size exotic pig breeding farms in the
private sector. Animal Husbandry Department should augment the resources for
promoting their cross breeding programme. At least 2 to 3 big feed mills are also
required to meet the shortage of concentrate feed in the district.
The department has been providing health care, artificial insemination facilities and
extension services and present position of existing veterinary facilities are given below:
Sl. No. Particulars Available

i District level Veterinary Hospital 1
ii Veterinary Dispensary 1
iii. Veterinary Health Centres -
iv. Farm/ Breeding for animals. -
v. Marketing& Retail Outlets Unorganized
vi. Processing of meat -
vii. Slaughter houses. -
11
There is no pig breeding Farm in the district and as such farmers have to buy
quality/exotic breeds from outside of the district. The banks may explore possibility of
financing such units. The present practice of selling meat is unhygienic.
Non-availability of fodder and high cost of animal feeds are serious problem faced by
farmers leading to poor financial return. Moreover lack of knowledge of farmers on
scientific method of rearing pigs also severely affects this venture. Non-availability of
improved breeds of pigs at cheaper rates affects small and marginal farmers.
The importance of proper feeding to optimize the economic return from our domestic
animals need to be emphasized. Hence, feed development is an important activity from
the piggery economics point of view.
Pork Marketing Infrastructure:
Retail sales of pork in the district are mainly through traditional markets that lack
infrastructure for hygienic slaughter. Pig production is mainly based on family labour
and feeds gathered or produced by the household. Purchases of feeds, apart from some
crop and milling by-products, are not frequent. Except for a few small-scale units and
the government pig farm, the use of commercial concentrate feed is negligible.
Advantages of Pig farming:
The advantages of the pig farming are:
a) Pig has got highest feed conversion efficiency i.e. they produce more live weight
gain from a given weight of feed.
b) Pig can utilise wide variety of feed stuffs viz. grains, forages, damaged feeds and
garbage and convert them into valuable nutritious meat. However, feeding of
damaged grains, garbage and other unbalanced rations may result in lower feed
efficiency.
c) They are prolific with shorter generation interval. A sow can be breed as early
as 8-9 months of age and can farrow twice in a year. They produce 6-12 piglets
in each farrowing.
d) Pig farming requires small investment on buildings and equipment.
e) Pigs are known for their meat yield, which in terms of dressing percentage
ranges from 65 - 80 in comparison to other livestock whose dressing yields may
not exceed 65%.
f) Pork is most nutritious with high fat and low water content and has got better
energy value than that of other meats. It is rich in vitamins like thiamine, Niacin
and riboflavin.
g) Pigs manure is widely used as fertilizer for agriculture farms and fish ponds.
h) Pigs store fat rapidly for which there is an increasing demand from poultry feed,
soap, paints and other chemical industries.
i) Pig farming provides quick returns since the marketable weight of fatteners can
be achieved with in a period of 6-8 months.
j) Pork has huge demand in the State as a whole.
3. Selection of the area:
Pig rearing is the most popular and traditional activity in the district. Almost every
tribal household in semi urban and rural areas maintain a small unit of local or exotic
12
variety of pigs. With the existing bank branches, the scheme will be implemented in
identified Kiphire and Pungro blocks of the district.
The financial & credit requirements of the identified blocks of the district is being
catered by only 3 branches of two SBI and one NStCB. The project area is well
connected by all-weather road and as such transportation of feeds and meat will not
be a problem. So, based on the available infrastructure, the area has been selected for
this scheme.
4. Selection of beneficiaries:
For successful implementation of the Area Development Scheme, selection of genuine

potential farmers is important. The beneficiaries who will be selected under this
project will be those already undertaking Pig rearing at their individual level or at
group level, availability of the space for piggery shed, concentrate feed sourcing,
experience, etc. Minimum unit size is 4 pigs (3 Sows and 1 Boar). In this regard,
Veterinary officials with support from identified NGOs may be engaged for selection
of beneficiaries from good SHGs / Farmers’ Clubs / JLGs in the district. Besides,
Department of Animal Husbandry will create awareness about piggery on scientific
lines in the district under the scheme. Concerned departments may conduct veterinary
health camps and provide training to the beneficiaries of the plan on scientific pig
farming.
5. Capacity building of the beneficiaries
The Department of Animal Husbandrywill be responsible for training and capacity

building of beneficiaries. Under its promotional programmes, NABARD may also
supplement the efforts of these agencies by arranging training of beneficiaries through
reputed NGOs, if needed.

state Govt.
Efforts should be made by all institutional stakeholders such as Department of Animal

Husbandry & Veterinary, NABARD, Banks, NGOs, etc. to achieve convergence and
synergy for commercialization of Pig farming in the district. The State government
may set up necessary infrastructure pertaining to pig rearing/breeding, meat
processing and marketing. Besides, banks will also explore potential for financing of
such infrastructure in the private sector and ensure training & capacity building of all
borrowers under the scheme. The GoI Scheme of National Livestock Mission may be
converged with the scheme. NABARD on its part will prepare banking plan, get it
approved by DCC and ensure implementation of the plan through regular review and
monitoring in DCC meetings with banks and line departments. Also, facilitate capacity
building of beneficiaries of the plan through concerned departments on Pigs and
provide exposure visits whenever required.
7. Banking Network & Trends in Credit Flow
The institutional credit needs of Kiphire district are being met by 3 (three) bank
branches comprising of 2 branches of the State Bank of India (SBI) and one NStCB
branch. SBI is the Lead Bank of the district. Three blocks viz. Sitimi, Longmatra and
Khonsa are not yet covered under any bank branch.
13
The overall credit flow in the priority sector in the last three years stood at Rs.358.86
lakhs in 2014-15, Rs.239.34 lakhs in 2015-16 and Rs.495.14% in 2016-17 respectively.
The overall achievement in the district under the Annual Credit Plan during 2016-17
was 92.10%. The agriculture sector recorded an achievement of 73.13%.
8. Physical and financial programme for the next 5 years:
Year-wise & Bank-wise Phasing & target for Five(5) Years is as follows :-

12. SWOT analysis:
 Strengths: i) Good supplementary activity in the scheme area for doubling the
farmers’ income (ii) Adequate green fodder as there is huge vacant land for
growing fodder. (iii) Pig farming is practiced by majority of the people in the
district.
 Weaknesses: i) Inadequate availability of forward and backward linkages in
the scheme area. (ii) Inadequate infrastructure such as Veterinary dispensaries,
AI centres and Fodder farm etc. (iii) Limited availability of commercial pig feeds
in the scheme area (iv) Inadequate awareness among the farmers on scientific
pig farming.
 Opportunities: i) Growing demand for pork from consumers in the area due
to increasing in income level ii) Proximity to demand centres / markets.
 Threats: i) Changes in Govt. policy leading to adverse procurement price (ii)
Frequent outbreak of Swine diseases. (iii) Climate change may also affect
productivity of Pigs.
13. Implementation Strategy and Monitoring mechanism:
The scheme will be formally launched and approved at DCC level. The Scheme will be
reviewed in DCC meetings. Stakeholders will also be involved in review meetings for
ensuring the extension of support service committed by them.
Any issues/difficulties arising during the course of implementation will be discussed

at DCC and corrective measures taken with the active participation of both Veterinary
department and banks. The projects financed under the scheme will be monitored by
DCC and it will form part of regular agenda of DCC. The LDM will collect progress
report from all the participating banks, branch-wise and place before DCC for review
and discussion. Thus, a robust monitoring mechanism will be set up for monitoring
and review of the scheme.
14. Conclusion:
This Area Development Scheme has been formulated by NABARD in consultation with
Veterinary and Animal Husbandry Department and Bankers. With proper and
16
successful implementation of the scheme, traditional backyard pig rearing will be
converted/upgraded into commercial pig farming benefitting the rural farmers. This
will contribute substantially in achieving the Government’s objective of doubling
farmers’ income by 2022. Further, the success of the scheme will spur employment in
the form of fodder cultivation, commercial pig feed outlets, retail outlets, marketing
and meat processing.

PIGGERY DEVELOPMENT
KOHIMA DISTRICT (NAGALAND) – JAKHAMA BLOCK
1. Introduction
In Nagaland, pig rearing is a backyard activity undertaken by the majority populace since pork
meat is the most common diet and forms the part and parcel of their local tradition and
culture. Piggery activity is very much popular amongst the rural households and sale of
livestock gives good returns in times of need for money. However, despite having popularity
in pig rearing and pork consumption in the State, there is huge shortage of pork meat
production than the local demand for consumption. As per Sample Survey Report of 2014-15,
the State produced 66.68% of the total requirement of livestock worth of Rs.1,673.35 crore
leaving behind a shortfall of 33.32 %.The gap is, therefore, bridged by supply of pigs from
outside the State for meat and as well as breeding purposes. The activity has got huge potential
for undertaking as Area Development Scheme since marketing of pigs and / or pork in the
As per the XIXth Livestock Census 2012, the pig population of Nagaland State was 5,03,688 of
which 75.59% (3,80,738) was cross breed (CB) and 24.41% (1,22,950) was indigenous variety
as per details given below:
a) No. of CB pigs 34145 16015 50160
d) Non-households enterprises / institutions having 68 62 130
pigs
collaboration with Sir Ratan Tata Trust is present implementing two interventions i.e.
pilot project on “Livelihood Initiative through Piggery activities in Nagaland“ (LitPiN)
and “Household Piggery Enterprise” covering Peren and Dimapur districts to increase
annual income of the households through improved farming practices.

by the Union Minister of Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare, Shri Radha Mohan Singh
in the presence of the Chief Minister of Nagaland. The policy would create a positive
environment for developing required infrastructure and technology and thereby
facilitating in production of appropriate pig breed, suitable to the small farmers /
entrepreneurs having limited resources and feasible to the agro-climatic condition of
Nagaland. The main objectives of the Policy are:

vitamins.
In Jakhama block, pork meat is sold in the traditional rural markets located by the
road side which is not hygienic. However, the demand for pork meat with
remunerative price continues to be high as demand exceeds supply. Thus, increased
piggery activities would not lead to any difficulties in marketing of pigs and pork meat
in the local markers.
Jakhama Block under Kohima district has been selected for implementation of Area
Development Scheme (ADS) for“Pig Rearing cum Fattening” considering the
19
manner, focussing on the existing and required infrastructure, stage of present
development, scope for increased coverage of the activity, number of units to be set
up, support available from the State Government, credit linkage needed for expansion
and strengthening the activity, etc,. The benefits of ADS are as under:

encourages others for active involvement with the activity.
 Better utilisation of the existing underutilised existing infrastructures.
 Marketing of produces in collective manner with better bargaining power.
 Creates an enabling platform for formation of Producers organisation.
 Create demand for other supplementary / complementary activities to piggery
activities.
As per 2011 census, the total number of households and population in the block was
8665 and 48186 respectively, majority of whom are dependent on agriculture and
allied activities for their livelihood. Presently, State Bank of India, Bank of India and
Bank of Baroda are catering to the banking services in the block. Another positive
factor witnessed in the block that all the villages are connected by all-weather roads
which facilitates in transportation of livestock, feeds, etc. for sale locally.
Total number of households engaged in pig rearing in Jakhama Block is furnished hereunder:

It can be seen from the above table that 24% of the households of Jakhama block are
engaged in piggery activities. However, majority of them are undertaking the activity
without bank loan. Therefore, through implementation of ADS, the banks can finance
20
at least 35% of the pig rearing households or 733 Nos. during the plan period of 5 (five)
years from 2018-19 to 2022-23..

In Jakhama block, pig rearing cum fattening is a popular activity where majority of the
farmers are already gained adequate skill on pig rearing. However, use of obsolete and
low quality inputs and poor livestock management practices resulted in low
production and productivity. To address this issue, the identified pig farmers will be
imparted capacity building training on scientific rearing and management of pigs
including fodder cultivation to reduce the input cost. These programmes will be
conducted in collaboration with the line departments, KVK/ICAR, NSRLM, etc.
NABARD may also grant assistance, as per extant guidelines, for undertaking training
cum exposure visit to the pig farmers within and outside the State.
6. Techno economic assumptions and project components
Good quality cross breed (CB) pigs will be considered for rearing cum fattening purpose under
the ADS. These pigs will be sourced either from the State Pig Farms or from local breeders to
ensure their adaptability and tolerance to the climatic conditions, disease resistance, etc.
While preparing the ADS Plan, the following assumptions have been taken into view:
 Assumptions

Jakhama Block is the resource centre of NSRLM where good quality SHGs are promoted and
credit linked with their efforts. Their involvement with the ADS will facilitate in identifying
active pig farmers / SHGs for deepening of the “SHG-Bank Linkage Programme” (SHG-BLP)
in the block. They may monitor on the proper end-use of the credit, timely repayment of loans
and facilitate to establish close relation with the development agencies involved for
convergence of their efforts/ programmes on input supply, marketing support, training,
exposure visit, etc.

PIGGERY DEVELOPMENT
LONGLENG DISTRICT (NAGALAND) – LONGLENG BLOCK
1. Introduction:
Pig breeding and fattening is a major activity of local Naga populace in the state who
have inherited the aptitude from generation together. However, the State still
continues to be the highest importer of pigs in the country and North East Region for
both meat and breeding purposes. The marketing of meat and meat products is still
not organised in the State. Pork is sold in villages by slaughtering one or two pigs once
in a week or so as special occasions / festivals. The realisation on sale of skin, bristles,
hoof, teeth, blood, etc. is poor to cover the cost of pig rearing. In the town areas of
Nagaland, meat is sold in open on regular or weekly markets, displayed in gunny bag,
banana leafs or polythene sheet. There is no infrastructure, like slaughter house and
display of meat cuts for sale. This activity provides ample avenues of employment
generation and economic upliftment of the farmers / entrepreneurs once the
potentials are exploited.
In Longleng district, pig breeding and fattening is a common and popular activity
where majority of the villagers are skilled. However, the piggery activity is still
remained at its infancy stage, compared to the other parts of the country. The reasons
are unscientific management of pigs, use of poor quality of inputs, lack of high breed
pig breeding centres, lack of entrepreneurial attitude amongst the pig reares, rearing
is done to meet domestic consumption and not for commercial production for business
development, etc. which resulted in low production and productivity. However, the
demand for meat in the district is increasing with the growth of population and also
the improving standard of living of the people. Despite the high demand for pork, the
production is not sufficient due to the various reasons, as stated above. This has caused
to import pigs from the neighbouring States which resulted in major outflow of funds
from the district thereby affecting the development of the district. The development of
the activity on a scientific manner will provide employment opportunities to the rural
unemployed and achieve the GoI objective to double farmer’s income by the year 2022.
To address the issues in a focused manner, the Area Development Scheme (ADS) and
Banking plan on piggery development for 5 (five) years from 2018-19 to 2022-23 has
been prepared for implementation in the block involving the identified bank branch.
The main objective of the ADS is to give visible impact to development in this sector
and give a platform for formation of Producers Organization. It will help in marketing
and capacity building of the farmers which in turn will make the banks easier to
finance.
As per the Livestock Census 2012, pig population in the district during the year 2011-
12 was 10891 of which 7992 was cross breed and 2899 was indigenous variety.
The Veterinary and Animal Husbandry Services has been providing health care,
artificial insemination facilities and extension services. The position of existing
veterinary facilities in the district as per latest census is given below:

Recent initiatives of the Government of Nagaland:
 The Department is targeting to achieve self-sufficiency in consumption of pork

meat with scope for export by the year 2030 through focussed development of
piggery activities in the rural areas. This will require production of known
genetic female line from Nucleus Piggery Farm and availability of superior boar
semen from Boar Station through an organised Artificial Insemination (AI)
platform for production of finishers pig. In this regard, the Department in
collaboration with Sir Ratan Tata Trust is currently implementing two
interventions i.e. pilot project on “Livelihood Initiative through Piggery in
Nagaland“ (LitPiN) covering Peren and Dimapur districts and “Household
Piggery Enterprise“ to increase the annual income of households through
improved farming practices. There are 10 (ten) of functional pig farms under
the department in the State from which the cross breed piglets are developed
and made available to the farmers as parent stock.
 Aimed at the genetic trait of the existing pig population of the State, the GoN
has framed the “Nagaland Pig Breeding Policy” which was announced on 6
August 2016 by Shri Radha Mohan Singh, Union Minister of Agriculture and
Farmers’ Welfare in the presence of the Chief Minister of Nagaland. The pig
breeding policy will focuss in developing appropriate pig breed suitable to the
agro-climatic context of Nagaland and small scale farmers having limited
resources. The objectives of the Policy are:
 Improve productivity through genetic  Maintain pure germ plasm of exotic

upgradation of the existing pig breeds to meet the requirement of
population of the State. the state.
 Conserve indigenous germ plasm.  Ensure that the breeds propagated
 Strengthen support mechanism are adapted to local climatic
particularly feed, housing and health conditions and emerging climatic
care. challenges
 Under the National Livestock Mission (NLM), the department is taking up

strengthening of pig breeding farms by way of repair and renovation,
procurement of elite breeding stock and health coverage by providing mineral
mixtures and vitamins to the pig farmers.
The District Veterinary and Animal Husbandry Services has been providing health
care, artificial insemination facilities and extension services. KVK, Longleng has also
been imparting training programmes and capacity building for the farmers. There is
no Pig Breeding Farm either in public or private sector and as such farmers are
required to buy quality/exotic pig breeds from outside the district. The banks may
explore possibility of financing such units. Non availability of fodder and high cost of
animal feeds are serious problem faced by farmers leading to poor financial return.
Moreover lack of knowledge of farmers on scientific method of rearing pigs also
severely affects this venture. Non availability of improved breeds of pigs at cheaper
2
rates affects the small and marginal farmers in undertaking the activity in a profitable
manner.
3. Selection of the Area:
The Longleng Block is identified, to cover under ADS for piggery, in consultation with
the stakeholders viz. bank, Department of Veterinary and Animal Husbandry Services,
Phom Baptist Christian Association (PBCA) (NGO) and Nagaland State Rural
Livelihood Mission (NSRLM), Longleng after considering the infrastructures available
and good with the district head quarter and the initiatives taken up like, formation of
SHGs/JLGs to facilitate better credit flow in the block.
The credit requirement of the identified block will be catered by SBI, Longleng Branch.
4. Selection of borrowers / beneficiaries:
To proper selection of borrowers / beneficiaries from potential individuals or groups

is the key for successful implementation of Area Development Scheme. The
department had conducted awareness programmes about piggery farming in the
identified block. Veterinary health camps are being conducted in the block on regular
intervals for the livestock of the potential borrowers either in groups or individuals. In
selection of borrowers, priority will be for members of SHG groups, JLGs and
individuals identified by Village Development Boards, Village Councils and Church
bodies. Banks can also identify potential borrowers at their own level. PBCA (NGO),
KVK, Longleng, NSRLM, Longleng and Village Level Organizations will facilitate the
bank in identifying good borrowers.
5. Capacity building of the beneficiaries:
The department and KVK, Longleng may take up the responsibility of providing
training and capacity building of beneficiaries/potential borrowers. Under the
promotional programmes, NABARD may consider to support for training of potential
beneficiaries through reputed or partner NGOs, if required.

State Government:
Every effort will be made by all institutional stakeholders such as the department
NABARD, NSRLM, Banks, NGOs, etc. to achieve convergence and synergy for
commercialisation of pig farming in the district. The State government may set up
necessary infrastructure and expand the existing ones pertaining to pig
rearing/breeding, meat processing and marketing. Besides, the banks will also explore
potential for financing of such infrastructure in the private sector. The department /
KVK may ensure providing training & capacity building of the borrowers covered in
the scheme. The GoI Scheme of National Livestock Mission – EDEG may be converged
with the Area development scheme. NABARD on its part will prepare banking plan,
get it approved by DCC; ensure implementation of the plan through regular review and
monitoring in DCC meetings with banks and line departments. Provide services and

12. SWOT analysis:
 Strengths:
 Potential supplementary activity for doubling the farmers’ income.
 Adequate vacant land for growing fodder.
 Pig has higher feed conversion efficiency.
 Weaknesses:
 Lack of forward and backward linkages in the scheme area.
 Inadequate infrastructure such as Veterinary Hospital / Dispensaries, AI
centres, fodder farms, etc.
 Poor supply of commercial pig feeds in the scheme area.
 Lack of awareness/willingness among the farmers on scientific pig farming.
 Opportunities:
 Growing demand for pork in the local area due to increasing population and
income level.
 Proximity to demand centres / markets.
Threats:
 Changes in Govt. policy.
 Frequent outbreak of Swine diseases.
 Climate change may also affect productivity of Pigs.
13. Implementation strategy and monitoring mechanism:
The scheme will be approved and formally launched at DCC level. The Scheme will be
reviewed in DCC meetings. Issues/difficulties arising during the course of
implementation will be discussed at DCC and corrective measures will be taken up.
The LDM will collect progress report from all the participating banks, branch-wise for
6
review and discussion. Thus, a robust monitoring mechanism will be set up for
monitoring and review of the scheme.
14. Conclusion:
The Area Development Scheme has been formulated by NABARD in consultation with
the department, KVK, NGOs, NSRLM & Bankers of the district. With proper and
successful implementation of the scheme, traditional backyard pig rearing will be
strengthened to commercial pig farming, thereby benefitting the rural farmers. This
will contribute in achieving the GoI’s objective for doubling of farmers’ income by
2022. Further, the success of the scheme will increase employment opportunities in
areas like, fodder cultivation, commercial pig feed outlets, retail outlets, marketing and
meat processing.

PIGGERY DEVELOPMENT
MOKOKCHUNG DISTRICT (NAGALAND)

ONGPANKONG SOUTH AND CHUCHUYIMLANG BLOCK
1. Introduction:
Pig breeding and fattening is a major activity in the state where the local populace have
inherited the aptitude in a casual manner leading to the highest importer of pigs in the
country and north east region both for meat and breeding purposes. The marketing of
meat is not organized rather sale pork mostly in rural haat and openly on road side.
Pork is sold in villages by slaughtering one or two animals once in a week or on special
occasions. The sale of skin, bristles, hoof, teeth, blood, etc. is done at low price. In
urban centres, hot meat is sold in open and regular or weekly markets displayed in
gunny bag, banana leafs or polythene sheet. There is no formal infrastructure for
slaughter and display meat cuts. This activity holds ample avenues of employment and
income generation.
Livestock provide a great deal of support for sustaining livelihoods of Mokokchung

district. Majority of the farmers follow mixed crop-livestock farming system wherein
livestock rearing is integrated with food production. Livestock depends on crops and
its by-products for their feed and fodder requirement and return nutrients to the crops
via manure for the sustainability of the system. Pig rearing is the most popular activity
followed by poultry. Meat and its products are in great demand without any social or
religious taboos. All types of meat are relished by the people, however, there is always
preference for pork. A wide gap exists between the total requirement and the domestic
production as far as the meat is concerned. But the local breeds are very small in size
and their growth rate is also slow and less productive. These types of local pigs are not
remunerative for the farmers. The demand of meat is increasing year after year due to
the growth of population. The living standards of the people are also going up resulting
in increased demand of meat. The production is not sufficient to meet the growing
demand due to low production and therefore pigs are imported from the neighbouring
states. Thus, there is a need for scientific rearing of piggery in the district to tap the
potential.
In view of the above, this Area Development Scheme (ADS) and Banking plan has been
prepared for implementation from 2018-19 to 2022-23 in the district involving
identified bank branches in the district. The main objective of the ADS is to give visible
impact to development in this sector and give a platform for formation of Producers
Organization. It will also help in marketing and capacity building of the farmers which
in turn will facilitate the banks in financing the activities.
The document is prepared through a process of consultations with all stakeholders at
the district level.
As per the Livestock Census 2012, the pig population in the district during the year
2011-12 was 50920 (Cross breed). There is one state government run pig breeding farm
at Merangkong under Tuli block, however it is not in a position to meet the growing
demand.

Recent initiatives of the Government of Nagaland:
 The Department is targeting to achieve self-sufficiency in pork with scope for

export by the year 2030 through focussed development of piggery. This will require
production of known genetic female line from Nucleus Piggery Farm and
availability of superior boar semen from Boar Station through an organised
Artificial Insemination (AI) platform for production of finishers pig. In this regard,
the Department in collaboration with Sir Ratan Tata Trust is currently
implementing two interventions ie. pilot project on “Livelihood Initiative through
Piggery in Nagaland“ (LitPiN) covering Peren and Dimapur districts and
“Household Piggery Enterprise“ to increase the annual income of households
through improved farming practices. Presently, there are 10 (ten) functional pig
farms under the Department of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Services in the
State from which the Cross Breed piglets are made available to the farmers for
parent stock.
 Aimed at the genetic trait of the existing swine population of the State, the GoN has
framed the “Nagaland Pig Breeding Policy”. This was officially announced on 6
August 2016 by the Union Minister of Agriculture and Farmers’ Welfare, Shri
Radha Mohan Singh in the presence of the Chief Minister of Nagaland. The policy
will give a strong impetus in developing the appropriate pig breed suitable to the
agro-climatic context of Nagaland and small farmers, having limited resources. The
objectives of the Policy are:

care. challenges
Under the National Livestock Mission (NLM), the Departmentis also taking up various
activities for strengthening and developing the piggery sector viz. strengthening of pig
breeding farms by way of repair and renovation, procurement of elite breeding stock
and health coverage by providing mineral mixtures and vitamins to the pig farmers.
The department has been providing health care, artificial insemination facilities and
extension services. The position of existing veterinary facilities in the district as per
latest census is given below:
Sl. No. Particulars Number

i Veterinary hospital 1
ii. Disease Diagnostic Lab 2

There is no pig breeding farm in the public / private sector and as such farmers have
to buy quality/exotic breeds from outside of the district / State. The banks may explore
possibility of financing such units. High cost of animal feeds are serious problem faced
by farmers leading to poor financial return. Moreover lack of knowledge of farmers on
scientific method of rearing pigs also severely affects this venture. Non availability of
The blocks and villages identified to covered under ADS for piggery activity has been
identified in consultation with various stakeholders which include Banks, the
department, Care & Support Society (NGO) and Nagaland State Rural Livelihood
Mission (NSRLM), Mokokchung after considering the infrastructures available
(Veterinary Health Centre in Ongpangkong block), good connectivity with the district
head quarter and various other initiatives taken up such as formation of Farmers
Clubs, SHGs and JLGs to facilitate better credit flow in the blocks. The blocks
identified are Ongpangkong South and Chuchuyimlang.
The credit requirement of the identified blocks will be catered by 8 (eight) bank
branches of 6 commercial banks, 1 Rural Bank and 1 State Co-operative Bank
altogether will be participating in the ADS.
The successful implementation of the Area Development Scheme the selection of good
borrowers from potential individuals or groups is very important. Department of
Veterinary and Animal Husbandry Services, Mokokchung had already conducted
awareness programmes about piggery farming in these identified blocks. Health
camps were also conducted in these blocks on regular intervals. So, there are lots of
potential borrowers in the form of groups as well as individuals. However, priority will
be given to members of Farmers clubs, SHG groups, Joint Liability Groups and
individuals identified by Village Development Boards, Village Councils and Church
bodies. Banks can also identify potential borrowers at their own level. Care& Support
Society (NGO), KVK, Mokokchung, Nagaland State Rural Livelihood Mission and
Village Level Organizations will facilitate the bank in identifying good borrowers.
5. Training / Capacity building of the beneficiaries:
The Department of Veterinary and Animal Husbandry Services, Mokokchung and

KVK, Mokokchung may take up the responsibility of providing training and capacity
building of beneficiaries/potential borrowers. Under the promotional programmes,
NABARD may consider to arrange training programmes of potential beneficiaries
through reputed or partner NGOs of the district if the need arises.

State Government:
Every effort will be made by all institutional stakeholders such as Department of

Animal Husbandry &Vety Services, NABARD, NSRLM, Banks, NGOs, etc. to achieve
10
convergence and synergy for commercialization of pig farming in the district. The State
government may set up necessary infrastructure and expand the existing ones
pertaining to pig rearing/breeding, meat processing and marketing. Besides, banks
will also explore potential for financing of such infrastructure in the private sector.
DAH & Vety/KVK may ensure training & capacity building of all borrowers under the
scheme. The GoI Scheme of National Livestock Mission may be converged with the
Area development scheme. NABARD on its part will prepare banking plan, get it
approved by DLCC; ensure implementation of the plan through regular review and
monitoring in DLCC meetings with banks and line departments; facilitate capacity
building of beneficiaries of the plan through training institutes /KVK and DAH & Vety.

PIGGERY DEVELOPMENT
MON DISTRICT (NAGALAND) – MON BLOCK
1. Introduction
In Nagaland, pig rearing is a backyard activity undertaken by the majority populace

since pork meat is the most common diet and forms the part and parcel of their local
tradition and culture. Piggery activity is very much popular amongst the rural
households and sale of livestock gives good returns in times of need for money.
However, despite having popularity in pig rearing and pork consumption in the State,
there is huge shortage of pork meat production than the local demand for
consumption. As per Sample Survey Report of 2014-15, the State produced 66.68% of
the total requirement of livestock worth of Rs.1,673.35 crore leaving behind a shortfall
of 33.32 %.The gap is, therefore, bridged by supply of pigs from outside the State for
meat and as well as breeding purposes. The activity has got huge potential for
undertaking as Area Development Scheme since marketing of pigs and / or pork in the
As per the XIXth Livestock Census 2012, the pig population of Nagaland State was
5,03,688 of which 75.59% (3,80,738) was cross breed (CB) and 24.41% (1,22,950) was

in the presence of the Chief Minister of Nagaland. The policy would create a positive
environment for developing required infrastructure and technology and thereby
facilitating in production of appropriate pig breed, suitable to the small farmers /
entrepreneurs having limited resources and feasible to the agro-climatic condition of
Nagaland. The main objectives of the Policy are:

vitamins.
17
Though piggery is a traditional activity of the tribal people of Mon district, there is a
high demand for pork meat hence the district’s requirement is met through imports
from outside the state. Supporting modern piggery with technical support from
institutions like KVK and ATMA is a viable activity. The state government
departments are already providing the necessary backward and forward linkages to
promote and support the activity.
Mon block under Mon district has been selected for implementation of Area
Development Scheme (ADS) for “Pig Rearing cum Fattening” considering the
manner, focusing on the existing and required infrastructure, stage of present
development, scope for increased coverage of the activity, number of units to be set
up, support available from the State Government, credit linkage needed for expansion
and strengthening the activity, etc.
The households of Mon block are engaged in piggery activities, however majority of
them are undertaking the activity without bank loan. Therefore, through
implementation of ADS, the banks can finance at least 50 pig rearing households or
250 households during the plan period of 05 (five) years from 2018-19 to 2022-23.

The pig rearing cum fattening is a popular activity where majority of the farmers are
already gained adequate skill on pig rearing. However, use of obsolete and low quality
inputs and poor livestock management practices resulted in low production and
productivity. To address this issue, the identified pig farmers will be imparted capacity
building training on scientific rearing and management of pigs including fodder
cultivation to reduce the input cost. These programmes will be conducted in
collaboration with the line departments, KVK/ICAR, NSRLM, etc. NABARD may also
grant assistance, as per extant guidelines, for undertaking training cum exposure visit
to the pig farmers within and outside the State.
Good quality cross breed (CB) pigs will be considered for rearing cum fattening
purpose under the ADS. These pigs will be sourced either from the State Pig Farms or
from local breeders to ensure their adaptability and tolerance to the climatic
conditions, disease resistance, etc.
18
Under Service Area Approach (SAA), SBI, Mon branch and NSCB, Mon Branches has
been identified as the potential financing agencies for the captioned activity in the
block.

PIGGERY DEVELOPMENT
PEREN DISTRICT (NAGALAND) – PEREN & JALUKIE BLOCKS
1. Introduction:
In India, majority of pigs are reared in traditional small-scale subsistence-driven

production systems. Pigs in such low-input systems provide value-added output for
farmers by consuming feed that would otherwise be lost. Livestock accounts for about
36% of the income of small and marginal farmers in India. The Situation Assessment
Survey (SAS-2014) of National Sample Survey Organization (NSSO) indicated that on
the whole, income of farmers is growing at the rate of 3.5% annually. At the same time,
it was noted that the income from livestock is growing at much faster pace of about
14.5% per year. Considering this, it is important to focus on the Animal Husbandry
Sector for doubling of farmers’ income by 2022. Among tribal communities in India,
smallholder pig rearing provides for nutritional, financial benefits, as well as providing
for conversion of household waste into fertilizer for agricultural crops.
In states of North-East India, almost every household has a small piggery unit. There
is a huge demand for pork in the state. The income from pig sales meets essential
household and farming expenses and provides financial independence to women in
the family. International Livestock Research Institute conducted a study on Piggery
sub-sector in North Eastern Region and reported that limited credit facility to
resource-poor rural farmers was one of the major constraints for piggery development.
Animal Husbandry sector has immense potential for development in the district. Pig
rearing is backyard activity and pork consumption by the local tribal is part and parcel
of their local culture and tradition. However, despite its popularity, the district is
deficient in pork production as the demand far exceeds the local supply. Piggery serves
as the most feasible economic activity in the district due to its low maintenance and
easy adaptability in the local environment. It offers vast scope for income generation
for small and marginal farmers and landless labourers living in economically
backward areas. In view of the substantial gap between demand and supply, further
increase in the animal population will not lead to problems of marketing. Peren district
has good potential for undertaking piggery where more than 95% people are non-
vegetarian. The livestock sector has a significant potential for round the year
employment generation particularly in rural areas of the district.

The pig production in the district as per the Livestock census 2012 is 16349. There are
pig breeding farms in the district but it is not in a position to meet the growing demand
for progeny and pork. The district has a District Veterinary Office. The extension
facilities to farmers are available from the Department of Veterinary & Animal
Husbandry and Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK).
There is a need for establishment of big or medium size exotic pig breeding farms in the
private sector. Animal Husbandry Department should augment the resources for
promoting their cross breeding programme. At least 2 to 3 big feed mills are required
to meet the shortage of concentrate feed in the district. The Veterinary and Animal
Husbandry Department has been providing health care, artificial insemination
facilities and extension services.
There are no good quality pig breeding Farm in the private sector and as such farmers
have to buy quality/exotic breeds from outside of the district. The banks may explore
possibility of financing such units. The present practice of selling meat is unhygienic.
Non availability of fodder and high cost of animal feeds are serious problem faced by
farmers leading to poor financial return. Moreover lack of knowledge of farmers on
scientific method of rearing pigs also severely affects this venture. Non availability of

Pig rearing is the most popular and traditional activity in the district. Almost every
tribal household in semi urban and rural areas maintains a small unit of local or exotic
variety of pigs. Keeping in view the presence of Bank branches, the scheme will be

PIGGERY DEVELOPMENT
PHEK DISTRICT (NAGALAND) – PHEK & PFUTSERO BLOCKS
1. Introduction:
In India, majority of pigs are reared in traditional small-scale subsistence-driven

production systems. Pigs in such low-input systems provide value-added output for
farmers by consuming feed that would otherwise be lost. Livestock accounts for about
36% of the income of small and marginal farmers in India. The Situation Assessment
Survey (SAS-2014) of National Sample Survey Organization (NSSO) indicated that on
the whole, income of farmers is growing at the rate of 3.5% annually. At the same time,
it was noted that the income from livestock is growing at much faster pace of about
14.5% per year. Considering this, it is important to focus on the Animal Husbandry
Sector for doubling of farmers’ income by 2022. Among tribal communities in India,
smallholder pig rearing provides for nutritional, financial benefits, as well as providing
for conversion of household waste into fertilizer for agricultural crops.
In states of North-East India, almost every household has a small piggery unit. There
is a huge demand for pork in the state. The income from pig sales meets essential
household and farming expenses and provides financial independence to women in
the family. International Livestock Research Institute conducted a study on Piggery
sub-sector in North Eastern Region and reported that limited credit facility to
resource-poor rural farmers was one of the major constraints for piggery development.
easy adaptability in the local environment. Moreover, import of pork has been banned
in the district thus creating opportunity for pig rearing. It offers vast scope for income
generation for small and marginal farmers and landless labourers living in
economically backward areas. In view of the substantial gap between demand and
supply, further increase in the animal population will not lead to problems of
marketing. Phek district has good potential for undertaking piggery where more than
95% people are non-vegetarian. As per the Livestock Census of 2012, the total pig
population of the district is estimated at 45315. The livestock sector has a significant
potential for round the year employment generation particularly in rural areas of the
district.

For successful implementation of the Area Development Scheme, selection of

genuine potential farmers is important. The beneficiaries who will be selected under
this project will be those already undertaking Pig rearing at their individual level or at
experience, etc. Minimum unit size is 4 pigs ( 3 Sows and 1 Boar). In this regard, KVK
and Veterinary officials with support of identified NGOs may be engaged for selection

The Department of Animal Husbandry and KVK will be responsible for training
and capacity building of beneficiaries. Under its promotional programmes, NABARD
may also supplement the efforts of these agencies by arranging training of
beneficiaries through reputed NGOs if the need arises.
6. Techno economic assumptions and project components:
Proper identification of animals and record keeping is essential. Cross-breed

animals with exotic inheritance of about 50 percent are preferable. This preference is
based on comparison of the performance of the animals with different percentage of
exotic inheritance. Fifty percent of the native germplasm is helpful to retain the
adaptability, heat tolerance and disease resistance traits of local animals in cross
breeds.
Exotic cross breed pigs are proposed for the scheme as they are found to be agro
climatically suitable for the area. Maintaining animals sustainable to the situation is
the best policy. Bringing animals from different agro-climatic conditions causes
problems due to non-adjustment in many cases. In case of purchases, essential it
should be from similar environmental conditions as far as possible. The average weight
of adult sow is taken as 90 kg.

PIGGERY DEVELOPMENT
TUENSANG DISTRICT (NAGALAND) – LONGKHIM BLOCK
1. Introduction
Piggery development is a major activity under livestock development in the State.

However, it is remained predominantly unorganized and confined to backyard rearing
only. Piggery is integral part of the rural household activity of the local tribal
population that covers majority of the population of the State. However, despite its
popularity, the State is deficient in pork production as the demand far exceeds the local
supply. The gap is, therefore, bridged by importing pigs from outside the State for meat
and breeding purposes. In view of the substantial gap between demand and supply,
Area Development Scheme (ADS) is an attempt to develop piggeries in an organized
way with following “Goal” and “Objective”.
 Goal: To achieve self-sufficiency in pork production and realise surplus for

marketing and value addition through food processing.
 Objective: To increase capital formation in the development of standardised

community based pig rearing cum fattening system in a cost effective and scientific
manner.
As per the Sample Survey Report of 2015-16, the total requirement of meat, milk and
eggs in monetary terms is estimated to be Rs. 2146.92 crores. The State produces 52
per cent of the total requirement worth of Rs. 1116.40 crores indicating shortfall of 48
per cent. To meet the shortfall, the State imported animal husbandry products worth
of Rs.212.99 crores. During 2015-16, import of livestock registered a fall of Rs. 1.75
crores from the level of 2014-15 on account of implementation of various livestock and
poultry programmes by the Department of Animal Husbandry & Veterinary Services.
The pig population of Nagaland State, as per the 19th Livestock Census 2012, was
5,03,688 of which 75.59% (3,80,738) areCross Breed (CB) and 24.41% (1,22,950) are
indigenous. There is a 27.82% decrease in number of pigs during the inter censuses
period (2007- 2012). The population of pigs in Tuensang district, as per Livestock
Census 2012, is given below:
Particulars Male Female Total

a) No. of CB pigs 18084 15512 33596
c) No. of households rearing pigs 12107
d) Non-households enterprises / institutions 4
having pigs
Total no. of households (c+d) 12111
Though pig rearing is a traditional activity for almost every rural household, however,
the State is yet to attain self-sufficiency in pork production and still continues to be the
largest importer of pigs in the country both for meat and breeding purposes. The
38
deficit of pork is met through procurement of pigs from outside the State, particularly
Uttar Pradesh. The deficit of young pigs for fattening are filled through trading in
Assam, Manipur and Myanmar (ILRI report on Nagaland’s pig sub sector-current
status, constraints and opportunities, 2008). The current pig production system in the
State can at best be described as low input and low output backyard rearing system.
The main reasons for the low output can be attributed to rearing of non-descript
animals with poor performance. Such animals have been established in the state over
the years through in-breeding and unscientific self-propagation through exchange of
genes among various swine breeds. Efforts to exploit the same on scientific lines in a
focused and dedicated manner have not been attempted by any developmental agency
in the past as such, the ability to multiply the existing stock was limited in the absence
of any systematic breeding programs. Increased production of pork has been
hampered by a lack of quality breeding stock and wieners.
The Department is targeting to achieve self-sufficiency in pork with scope for export
by the year 2030 through focussed development of rural piggery. This will require
production of known genetic female line from Nucleus Piggery Farm and availability
of superior boar semen from Boar Station through an organised Artificial
Insemination (AI) platform for production of finishers pig. In this regard, the
Department in collaboration with Sir Ratan Tata Trust is currently implementing two
interventions ie. Pilot project on “Livelihood Initiative through Piggery in Nagaland“
(LitPiN) covering Peren and Dimapur districts and “Household Piggery Enterprise“ to
increase the annual income of households through improved farming practices.
Presently, there are ten (10) nos. of functional pig farms under the Department of AH
and Vety. Services in the State from which the CB piglets are made available to the
farmers for their parent stock. Their location are as under:

With a view to streamline the existing pig breeding practices in the state and keeping
in view the fact that piggery makes a significant contribution to a farmers’ livelihood,
pig rearing being a way life for the rural farmer, the GoN introduced the Nagaland Pig
Breeding Policy in the year 2016 with the following main objectives:
 To improve the genetic trait of the existing swine population of the state.
 Improve productivity through genetic upgradation of the existing pig population
 Maintain pure germplasm of exotic breeds pig to meet the requirement of the state
 Conserve indigenous germplasm
 Support mechanism particularly feed, housing and health care to facilitate the
above.
Increasing per capita income, urbanization and changes in lifestyle and food habits
have created a further demand for pork. Per capita consumption of pork in Nagaland
is roughly 8.36 kg per annum which is the highest in the country while the all India
figure is negligible. Growth in supply has failed to keep pace with rising demand
resulting in accelerated increase in real pork prices.
elite breeding stock and health coverage by providing mineral mixtures and vitamins
to the pig farmers.
In Longkhim RD Block, Tuensang district, retail sale of pork is done through

traditional rural markets and by the roadside as they lack hygienic slaughter house and
outlet.Increasing demand for animal-source foods matched with the low productivity
of the State’s pig population suggests that well targeted interventions to improve pig
production could deliver significant livelihood benefits for the tribal and other
marginalized groups in the state. Scaling up and intensification of pig production is
required to reduce the large deficit of slaughter pigs. There is therefore a need to shift
from the current smallscale household to semi commercial production system.
Extensive financing for Cross Breed and native breeds of pigs need to be attempted for
increasing the meat production. There is a need to strengthen the value chain approach
to financing in the pig development sector by putting in place outlets where pig
farmers can have access to good quality and cost effective inputs such as appropriate
feeds and breeds, improved access to efficient and cost effective veterinary and
extension services, availability of cost effective feeding options and having more
efficient markets for inputs and services in place. Current government breeding
programs need to be re-assessed and innovative community-based systems developed
and supported by a needs-based training program on the care and management of
breeding stock.However, as demand outstrips supply, further increase in animal
population will not lead to difficulties for marketing.
Longkhim Block under Tuensang District has been selected for implementation of
ADS for piggery activity viz. “pig rearing cum fattening” as there is a need to promote
it in a planned manner by focussing on existing infrastructure, stage of present
development, scope for increasing the activity, number of units to be set up,
40
Government support available, credit support needed to expand and strengthen the
activity, etc.Its benefits are as under:
 Convenient to plan, implement and monitor.

 Gives visible impact, which will help to motivate others to get involved.
 Better utilization of existing underutilized infrastructure.
 Better and collective marketing of produce.
 Give a platform for formation of Producers organization.
 Capacity building of the project partners / farmers for collective bargaining.
 Generate demand for other supplementary / complementary activities.
 Bankers find it convenient to finance as no individual project appraisal is
necessary.
 It facilitates value chain financing.
As per 2011 census, the total no. of households and population in the block is 3272 and
17306 respectively, majority of whom are dependent on agriculture and allied
activities for their livelihood. Presently, the State Bank of India, Longkhim Branch and
Nagaland State Cooperative Bank, Tuensang Branch are catering to the banking
requirements of the block.
Livestock rearing, including pig, along with agriculture forms the perfect basket of
activities for our small and marginal farmers. This will provide meat for his
consumption and as a source of additional income through sale thereby playing a vital
role in achieving the stated objective of GoI to double farmers’ income by the year
2022.
Out of the total 36,742 households in Tuensang District, 12,107 households are rearing
pigs and 4 number of non-household enterprises/ institutions are engaged in piggery.
As per 2011 census, there has been 3272 households and population in the Longkhim
Block and population of 17306 and sizeable number of them are already engaged in
piggery. However, majority of them are undertaking this activity without bank loan.
Hence, the ADS, inter-alia, seeks to assist the rural households with bank finance
within during a period of 5 (five) years.
For selection of beneficiaries and implementation of ADS, the officials of the

department, Northeast Rural Livelihood Project (NERLP) and Better Life Foundation
(BLF) will be directly involved. This will ensure identification of genuine pig farmers
in group or individual mode and adoption of right technologies including management
practices.
In Tuensang district, pig rearing cum fattening is a popular activity in which majority
of the local populace are already skilled. However, the development of this activity is
still in its infancy as compared to the rest of the country due to unscientific inputs and
management thereby resulting in low production and productivity. To address this
issue, the identified pig farmers will be given capacity building training on scientific
rearing and management of pigs including cultivation of fodder plantation to reduce
the input cost. These programmes will be conducted in collaboration with the
department, KVK, NERLP and BLF. NABARD’s promotional funds may be utilized for
41
training cum exposure of the pig farmers to training institutes within and outside the
State.

State Govt.
Tuensang District, including Longkhim block, is covered under theNorth East Rural
Livelihood Project (NERLP) of the Ministry of DoNER, GoI, where they are promoting
and credit linking good quality SHGs. Their involvement in the ADS will help in
identifying genuine pig farmers and also deepen the SHG-BLP (Self Help Group –
Bank Linkage Programme) in the block. They will also ensure the proper end use of
credit, timely repayment of bank loans and facilitate them to develop long term
relationships with various development agencies for convergence of efforts/
programmes for training, exposure visit, marketing support, supply of inputs, etc.
There is only one bank branch located in the block i.e. SBI, Longkhim Branch.
Popularising of the National Livestock Mission - Entrepreneurship Development and
Employment Generation (NLM-EDEG) by NABARD has also encouraged piggery
activities with credit support from banks.
The village-wise number of “pig rearing cum fattening units” to be set up during the
five year period from 2018-2023 are as under:

12. SWOT Analysis
a. Strengths:
 Pig has one of the highest feed conversion efficiency and can utilize a
variety of feedstuffs for conversion into nutritious meat.
 Pigs are prolific breeders and producing 6 - 12 piglets in each farrowing
 Pig farming generally requires low investment on building and
equipment.
 Pork is rich in fat and has got better energy value than other meats.
b. Weaknesses:
 Awareness about the latest scientific methods and practices is low.
 Inadequate access to Artificial Insemination facility, quality piglets,
feeds, insurance and veterinary services.
 Lack of modernized slaughter houses and hygienic retail outlets.
44
c. Opportunities:
used.as.fertilizerin agriculture farms and fish ponds.
 Pig farming provides quick returns since the marketable weight of
fatteners can be achieved with in a period of 6-8 months.
 There is growing demand from domestic as well international markets
for pork, bacon, ham, sausages, lard, etc. This can boost the nascent meat
d. Threats:
 Cover 5 villages under Longkhim block of Tuensang district.

 Involve the Northeast Rural Livelihood Project (NERLP) for targeted
 Department of Animal Husbandry & Veterinary Services, GoN will ensure
availability of quality animals, introduction of Artificial Insemination (AI),
improving housing, compound pig feed and management of health & diseases.
 KVK, BLF and veterinary clinics will provide reliable extension services and
capacity building of beneficiaries, including marketing linkages wherever
required.
Chairmanship of the Deputy Commissioner, Tuensang.
14. Conclusion
 Ownership: The ADS has been formulated by NABARD in consultation with

various line departments, bankers, NERL, BLF and other stakeholders to realise
the above goal and objective. During the course of its implementation, every effort
will be made to ensure that an effective system is established and owned by the
stakeholders to ensure smooth flow of credit from the banks for undertaking
piggery and other income generating activities.

PIGGERY DEVELOPMENT
WOKHA DISTRICT (NAGALAND) – TOWN AREA BLOCK
1. Introduction:
Agriculture is the predominant activity in the district, however, rearing of Piggery play
an important role in the family income of Small/ Marginal Farmers, land less
population of the rural areas in the district. These activities give good returns to the
rural poor. There is good scope for financing these activities under various subsidy
linked programmes. Majority of tribal population prefer pig rearing in the district.
They generally prefer local breed which are easily available in the district and has huge
demand. The State is deficient in pork production as the demand far exceeds the local
and breeding purposes. Bank credit can play a vital role in promoting animal
husbandry activity in the district. As per Livestock census 2012, the population of Pig
is 48592 in the district. The income from livestock is growing at much faster pace.
Considering this, it is important to focus on the Animal Husbandry Sector for doubling
of farmers’ income by 2022. Among tribal communities in India, smallholder pig
rearing provides for nutritional, financial benefits, as well as providing for conversion
of household waste into fertilizer for agricultural crops. The income from pig sales
meets essential household and farming expenses.
2.1 Availability of Pig : In states of North-East India, almost every household has a
small piggery unit. There is a huge demand for pork in the state, however, limited
credit facility to resource-poor rural farmers is one of the major constraints for piggery
development. Small units of pig rearing for people living below the poverty line are
feasible under various government sponsored programs. The breakup of total
population of pigs in the district as per the 2012 census, is given below:
Sl. No. Type Population

1 Pigs-Cross breed 34660
2 Pigs-Indigenous breed 13932
easy adaptability in the local environment. In view of the substantial gap between
demand and supply, further increase in the animal population will not lead to
problems of marketing. Wokha district has good potential for undertaking piggery
where more than 95% people are non-vegetarian.
prepared by NABARD for implementation from 2018-19 to 2022-23 in Wokha district
46
2.2 Availability of veterinary and cross breeding infrastructure
There is only 1 District level Veterinary Hospital. The Veterinary and Animal
Husbandry Department has been providing health care, Artificial Insemination (AI)
facilities and extension services. There is no Pig breeding Farm in the district and as
such farmers have to buy quality/exotic breeds from outside of the district. The banks
may explore possibility of financing such units. The present practice of selling meat is
unhygienic.
Non availability of fodder and high cost of animal feeds are serious problem
faced by farmers leading to poor financial return. Moreover, lack of knowledge of
farmers on scientific method of rearing pigs also severely affects this venture. Non
availability of improved breeds of pigs at cheaper rates affects small and marginal
farmers.
The importance of proper feeding to optimize the economic return from our
domestic animals need to be emphasized. Hence, feed development is an important
activity from the piggery economics point of view.
2.3 Feed and Fodder Development
As far as pig rearing is concerned, fodder in the form of Grains - Maize,

Sorghum, Other Millets, Wheat and Rice should be basic ingredients. Oil cakes,
fishmeal and meat meal can be protein supplements. No vitamin supplement is
required. However, lack of knowledge of farmers on scientific method of rearing pigs
also severely affects this venture. Non availability of improved breeds of pigs at
cheaper rates affects small and marginal farmers.
2.4 Marketing Infrastructure
Roadside unregistered slaughterers and retail pork sellers were in abundance

in the district. Marketing infrastructure in the district as regards organized sale of pork
and pig products is at an infantile stage. Importance has to be accorded towards
maintenance of proper health and hygiene of the animal and safe disposal of the
animal viscera and other waste materials in a hygienic manner.
The pig breeders can be brought under FPO manifold for ensuring proper
marketing/sale of the boars/sows and receipt of proper market price.
Pig rearing is the most popular and traditional activity in the district. Almost
every tribal household in semi urban and rural areas maintain a small unit of local or
exotic variety of pigs. Keeping in view the presence of Bank branches, the scheme will
be implemented in town area of Wokha district.
The credit requirement of Wokha district is being met through 11 bank branches viz.
five branches of State Bank of India and one branch each of Bank of Baroda, Central
Bank of India, Axis bank, ICICI, Nagaland State Cooperative bank and Nagaland Rural
Bank. State Bank of India is the Lead Bank in the district. The project area is well

this scheme.
 Small and landless farmers

 Educated youth having agriculture as occupation
 Uneducated youth
 Farm women
 Members of WSHGs and other trained, interested progressive farmers will be
selected in close consultation with bankers, NGOs and other relevant formal
and informal bodies.
Following factors will also be given weightage:
 Farmers who can make arrangement for procuring concentrate feed

 Farmers who are experienced in piggery activities or trained in Piggery
activities by RSETI/ KVK/NABARD/NGOs, etc.
Unit size : Minimum unit size is 3+1 animals. However, bigger unit size of 5+1
animals for marginal farmers/ WSHG members can also be supported based on
demand. Depending upon the interest and resources of the farmers, multiple units can
be considered.
The Department of Animal Husbandry or its official based at Block level will provide
necessary training and capacity building to the beneficiaries on scientific Pig rearing
play important role for training and capacity building of beneficiaries. Besides Pig
rearing, the training will also cover aspects of scientific management of small
ruminants/financial management/ project management/value chain management/
marketing aspects etc.
6. Techno economic assumptions:
Techno economic assumptions and project components:
Proper identification of animals and record keeping is essential. Cross-breed

animals with exotic inheritance of about 50 percent are preferable. This preference is
based on comparison of the performance of the animals with different percentage of
exotic inheritance. Fifty percent of the native germplasm is helpful to retain the
adaptability, heat tolerance and disease resistance traits of local animals in cross
breeds.
Exotic cross breed pigs are proposed for the scheme as they are found to be agro
climatically suitable for the area. Maintaining animals sustainable to the situation is
the best policy. Bringing animals from different agro-climatic conditions causes
problems due to non-adjustment in many cases. In case of purchases, essential it
should be from similar environmental conditions as far as possible. The average weight
of adult sow is taken as 90 kg.

The successful implementation will depend on the active participation of all stake
holder. The ADS has been prepared in consultations with various stake holders, like
Line departments, Major Banks, NGOs, etc. The ADS will be placed before the DLCC
for approval before launch. The block wise branch wise allocations will be discussed in
BLBC meetings. The implementation of ADS will be reviewed regularly in DLCC
meeting, BLBC meetings, etc. and with various stakeholders for ensuring extension
services, convergence, etc. Thus, a robust monitoring mechanism will be set up for
15. Conclusion
The pig farming is a popular household activity, proper training and outreach to bank
loan can provide them a healthy source of income and it can fit well into mixed farming
system. The Pig activities are viable and offers excellent opportunities for self-
employment and livelihood generation, besides providing a source of
protein/nutrition. There is a potential of expansion of Pig which will provide meat for
his consumption and sale throughout the year. This is a good source of creating
additional income thereby playing a vital role in achieving the stated objective of GoI
to double farmers’ income by the year 2022.

PIGGERY DEVELOPMENT
ZUNHEBOTO DISTRICT (NAGALAND) – SATAKHA BLOCK
1. Introduction
In Nagaland, pig rearing is backyard activity and pork consumption by the populace is
part and parcel of their local tradition and culture. This activity is very popular among
the rural people and also acts as a bank in times of need. However, despite its
popularity, the State is deficient in pork production as the demand far exceeds the local
and breeding purposes. In view of the substantial gap between demand and supply,
further increase in the animal population will not lead to difficulties for marketing. As
per Sample Survey Report of 2014-15, the State produced 66.68% of the total
requirement of livestock worth Rs. 1, 673.35 crore leaving behind a shortfall of 33.32%.
The pig population of Nagaland State as per the XIXth Livestock Census 2012 is
5,03,688 of which 75.59% (3,80,738) are Cross Breed (CB) and 24.41% (1,22,950) are
indigenous. Given below in the table is the population of pigs in Zunheboto district as

Total (c+d) 13166 1628 14794
The Department is targeting to achieve self-sufficiency in pork with scope for export
by the year 2030 through focussed development of rural piggery. This will require
production of known genetic female line from Nucleus Piggery Farm and availability
of superior boar semen from Boar Station through an organised Artificial
Insemination (AI) platform for production of finishers pig. In this regard, the
Department in collaboration with Sir Ratan Tata Trust is currently implementing two

Aimed at the genetic trait of the existing swine population of the State, the GoN has
framed the “Nagaland Pig Breeding Policy”, the first of its kind in the country. This
was officially released on 6th August 2016 by the Union Minister of Agriculture and
Farmers’ Welfare, Shri Radha Mohan Singh in the presence of the Chief Minister of
Nagaland. The breeding policy will play a pivotal role in developing the appropriate
pig breed suitable to the agro-climatic context of Nagaland and small scale farmers
having limited resources. The objectives of the Policy are:

care. challenges
elite breeding stock and health coverage by providing mineral mixtures and vitamins
to the pig farmers.
In Satakha block, retail sale of pork is done through traditional rural markets and by
the road side as they lack hygienic slaughter houses and outlets. However, as demand
outstrips supply, further increase in animal population will not lead to difficulties for
marketing.

Satakha block under Zunheboto district has been selected for implementation of Area
Development Scheme (ADS) on “pig rearing cum fattening” as there is a need to
promote it in a planned manner by focussing on existing infrastructure, stage of
present development, scope for increasing the activity, number of units to be set up,
Government support available, credit support needed to expand and strengthen the
activity, etc,. Its benefits are as under:

 Gives visible impact to development, this helps to motivate others to get
involved.
necessary.
 It facilitates value chain financing.
As per 2011 census, the total no. of households and population in the block is 4018 and
20266 respectively, majority of whom are dependent on agriculture and allied
activities for their livelihood. Presently, the State Bank of India is catering to the
banking requirements of the block. Further, majority of villages in the block are
connected by all-weather roads which will facilitate transportation of feeds and
animals for sale.
Livestock rearing, including pig, along with agriculture forms the perfect basket of
activities for our small and marginal farmers. This will provide meat for his
consumption and as a source of additional income through sale thereby playing a vital
role in achieving the stated objective of GoI to double farmers’ income by the year
2022.
The No. of households engaged in pig rearing under Satakha block is furnished below
in the table:

It can be seen from the above table that 20.68% of the households, including non-
households, under Satakha block of Zunheboto district are already engaged in piggery.
However, majority of them are undertaking this activity without bank loan.
For selection of beneficiaries and implementation of ADS, the officials of Nagaland

State Rural Livelihood Mission (NSRLM) and Department of Animal Husbandry and
Veterinary Services will be directly involved. This will ensure identification of genuine
pig farmers in group or individual mode and adoption of right technologies including
management practices.
In Zunheboto district, including Satakha block, pig rearing cum fattening is a popular
activity in which majority of the local populace are already skilled. However, the
development of this activity is still in its infancy as compared to the rest of the country
due to unscientific inputs and management thereby resulting in low production and
productivity. To address this issue, the identified pig farmers will be given capacity
building training on scientific rearing and management of pigs including cultivation
of fodder to reduce the input cost. These programmes will be conducted in
collaboration with the line departments of the State Government, KVK Zunheboto,
ICAR and NSRLM. Here, NABARD’s promotional funds can also be utilized for
training cum exposure of the pig farmers to training institutes within and outside the
State.
Good quality CB pigs will be introduced for rearing cum fattening purpose under the
ADS. They will be sourced either from the State Pig Farms or from local breeders to
ensure their adaptability, tolerance of the climatic conditions, disease resistance, etc.
The plan has been prepared with the following assumptions:

 SWOT analysis
a. Strengths:
 Pig has one of the highest feed conversion efficiency and can utilize a
variety of feedstuffs for conversion into nutritious meat.
 Pigs are prolific breeders and producing 6 - 12 piglets in each farrowing
 Pig farming generally requires low investment on building and
equipment.
 Pork is rich in fat and has got better energy value than other meats.
b. Weaknesses:
 Awareness about the latest scientific methods and practices is low.
 Inadequate access to Artificial Insemination facility, quality piglets,
feeds, insurance and veterinary services.
 Lack of modernized slaughter houses and hygienic retail outlets.
c. Opportunities:
 Pig farming provides quick returns since the marketable weight of
fatteners can be achieved with in a period of 6-8 months.
 There is growing demand from domestic as well international markets
for pork, bacon, ham, sausages, lard, etc. This can boost the nascent meat
d. Threats:

 Cover all the twenty five (25) villages under Satakha block of Zunheboto district.
 Credit linkage from banks to individuals and groups ie. SHGs / JLGs for
improving housing, compound pig feed and management of health & diseases.
61
 ICAR, KVK Zunheboto and veterinary clinics will provide reliable extension
services and capacity building of beneficiaries, including marketing linkages
wherever required.
Chairmanship of the Deputy Commissioner, Zunheboto.
15. Ownership: The ADS has been formulated by NABARD in consultation with
various line departments, bankers, NSRLM and other stakeholders to realise the above
goal and objective. During the course of its implementation, every effort will be made
to ensure that an effective system is grounded and owned by all the stakeholders to
ensure uninterrupted credit flow from Financial Institutions for undertaking piggery
and other Income Generating Activities (IGAs).

DAIRY DEVELOPMENT
DIMAPUR DISTRICT (NAGALAND) – MEDZIPHEMA BLOCK
1. Introduction
Livestock rearing, including dairy animals, along with agriculture forms the perfect
basket of activities for our small and marginal farmers. A small dairy farm of two
animals will provide manure for his farm and milk for consumption and sale. It is a
source of additional income to the farmers which help in doubling farmers’ income by
the year 2022.
Nagaland has got immense potential for dairy development considering the evergreen
and favourable agro-climatic condition. However, Nagaland’s contribution to milk
production of the country is negligible and milk and milk products are supplied from
outside of the State to meet its day to day requirement. The main reasons of low milk
production were due to rearing local nondescript dairy animals coupled with poor
management of the business. Therefore, an urgent need is felt for implementation of
Area Development Scheme (ADS) for “Dairy Development” to promote it in a planned
manner, focussing on existing infrastructure, stage of present development, scope for
increasing the activity, number of units to be set up, Government support available,
credit support required to expand and strengthen the activity, etc,. The advantages and
benefits of ADS are as under:
 Optimum utilisation of the existing infrastructures.
 Possibility of marketing of produces in collective manner with better bargaining
power. Creates an enabling platform for formation of Producers organisation.
encourages others for active involvement with the activity. Create demand for
other supplementary / complementary activities to dairy activities in cost
effective and scientific manner.

The Department of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Services, GoN has four Cattle
Breeding Farms in the State viz. Kohima (Kohima district), Aliba (Mokokchung
district), Tuensang (Tuensang district) and Jalukie (Peren district) for producing
quality heifers through Artificial Inseminations (AIs) including a cattle feed plant at
Kohima and to increase milk production. The department has adopted cattle breeding
policy, wherein, Jersey is being recommended to farmers in the lower altitude / plain
areas and Holstein Friesian (HF) in the higher altitude. AI services are now made
available to dairy farmers at an affordable cost. It has also envisaged for setting up of
milk processing infrastructure along the important milk routes which may improve the
dairy sector over the years. Initiatives are being taken to conserve and develop local
breeds in a scientific manner under Rashtriya Gokul Mission.
.
The Nagaland Livestock Development Board (NLDB), line department and DIMUL
are promoting cattle and dairy developmental activities. The DIMUL is procuring milk
and processing it in their dairy plant for making lassi, paneer, yoghurt and ghee under
the brand name “DIMUL” (Dimapur Milk Co-operative Union Ltd.).
Under Medziphema Block of Dimapur district 24 (twenty-four) villages have been

selected for implementation of ADS on “Dairy Development”. The location of the
villages are near to NH-29, connected by all-weather roads, available green fodder in
the areas, presence of dairy co-operative societies, milk pouring members of DIMUL,
fall within the coverage of “milk route”, implementation of Dairy Entrepreneurship
Development Scheme (DEDS) in the areas, etc, have been considered in the selection
process. The banking services are available from 4 (four) bank branches viz. Allahabad
Bank, Dimapur Branch; State Bank of India, Medziphema; SBI, Chumukedima and
UCO Bank, Chumukedima in the selected villages.
animals will provide manure for his farm and milk for consumption and sale. The dairy
activity is a source of additional income to the farmers which help in doubling farmers’
income by the year 2022.
The line department, NLDB and dairy co-operative societies will be involved in
selection of farmers for implementation of ADS. In the process, genuine dairy farmers
will be identified and also assess the requirement for adoption of right kind of
technologies with the best management practices for the dairy activity.
Introduction of CB cows, AI facility, feeds at reasonable rates, veterinary services and

scientific management practices are considered the need for improving production
and productivity of dairy products. Towards this end, the identified dairy farmers will
be provided training on capacity building on scientific rearing and management of
milch animals and also cultivation of green fodder to reduce the input cost. These
programmes will be done in coordination with the line departments, KVK and ICAR.
Dimapur. NABARD’s promotional programmes, as may be eligible, may be dovetailed
for training cum exposure of the dairy farmers with the training institutes / centres.

e. Strengths:
 A sustainable livestock development will pace the growth of the local

economy.
 There is a vast scope for inducting improved breeds for increasing milk
production.
 Milk consumption is turning of regular diet in the State. Therefore,
demand for milk and milk products are rising continuously.
 Availability of green fodder easily which will reduce input cost.
f. Weaknesses:
 Average milk yield is low due to having local / indigenous milch animals.

 Poor and erratic power supply which is a challenge for procurement and
supply of poor quality milk to the consumers..
 Cold chain infrastructure is not available.
 Majority of the dairy farmers are unaware about scientific dairy
farming, clean milk production and value chain.
 Access to Artificial Insemination facility (AI), feeds, insurance and
veterinary services.
g. Opportunities:
 Increasing demand for milk and milk products will create job and self-
employment opportunities.
 Qualified local trained individuals may set up enterprises to facilitate
backward and forward linkages. They may approach banks for assistance
under ACABC Scheme to set up extension centres supplementing the
government extension mechanism for benefit of the farmers.
 The credit linked subsidy extended by GoI to encourage dairying can be
availed for purchase CB milch cows for increasing milk production.
h. Threats:
 Spread of new diseases, decline in fodder production, decline in milk

production due to heat stress and declining water table are some of the
effects of climate change on livestock. All these will affect the health of
livestock and income of farmers.
 Indiscriminate crossbreeding for raising milk productivity could lead
to disappearance of valuable indigenous breeds.
 Lack of awareness on quality parameters amongst the dairy farmers
may affect the dairy sector.

DAIRY DEVELOPMENT
KOHIMA DISTRICT (NAGALAND) – SECHU-ZUBZA BLOCK
1. Introduction
animals will provide manure for his farm and milk for consumption and sale. It is a
source of additional income to the farmers which help in doubling farmers’ income by
the year 2022.
Nagaland has got immense potential for dairy development considering the evergreen
and favourable agro-climatic condition. However, Nagaland’s contribution to milk
production of the country is negligible and milk and milk products are supplied from
outside of the State to meet its day to day requirement. The main reasons of low milk
production were due to rearing local nondescript dairy animals coupled with poor
management of the business. Therefore, an urgent need is felt for implementation of
Area Development Scheme (ADS) for “Dairy Development” to promote it in a planned
manner, focussing on existing infrastructure, stage of present development, scope for
increasing the activity, number of units to be set up, Government support available,
credit support required to expand and strengthen the activity, etc,. The advantages and

 Optimum utilisation of the existing infrastructures.
 Possibility of marketing of produces in collective manner with better bargaining
power. Creates an enabling platform for formation of Producers organisation.
encourages others for active involvement with the activity. Create demand for
other supplementary / complementary activities to dairy activities in cost
effective and scientific manner.
district), Tuensang (Tuensang district) and Jalukie (Peren district) for producing
quality heifers through Artificial Inseminations (AIs) including a cattle feed plant at
Kohima and to increase milk production. The department has adopted cattle breeding
areas and Holstein Friesian (HF) in the higher altitude. AI services are now made
available to dairy farmers at an affordable cost. It has also envisaged for setting up of
milk processing infrastructure along the important milk routes which may improve the
9
dairy sector over the years. Initiatives are being taken to conserve and develop local
breeds in a scientific manner under Rashtriya Gokul Mission.
.
The Nagaland Livestock Development Board (NLDB) and Nagaland State Dairy
Cooperative Federation Ltd. (NSDCF), located at Kohima town, are promoting cattle
and dairy developmental activities. The NSDCF is procuring milk and processing it in
their dairy plant for making lassi, paneer, yoghurt and ghee under the brand name
“MILKON” (Milk Co-operatives of Nagaland).
Under Sechu-Zubzablock Block of Kohima district 10 (ten) villages have been selected
for implementation of ADS on “Dairy Development”. The location of the villages are
near to NH-29, connected by all-weather roads, available green fodder in the areas,
presence of dairy co-operative societies, milk pouring members of MILKON, fall
within the coverage of “milk route”, implementation of Dairy Entrepreneurship
Development Scheme (DEDS) in the areas, etc, have been considered in the selection
process. As per 2011 census, total number of households and population of 10(ten)
selected villages are 2768 and 14513 respectively, majority of whom are dependent on
agriculture and allied activities for their livelihood. The banking services are provided
by three bank branches viz. State Bank of India, IDBI and UBI in the selected villages.
In Sechu-Zubza block, about 10.81% of the households are engaged in dairy activity
mainly from the selected ten villages. The block has 8 per cent (954 out of 11911) of
district CB cattle population and 16.72 per cent of the district’s indigenous cattle. The
dairy farmers are undertaking the activity with their own funds. Thus, the area has the
potential to develop the dairy sector. While the ADS may assist the present dairy
farmers, it may enable financing the prospective new beneficiaries for horizontal
expansion of the activity with the help of bank finance.
The line department, NLDB, NSDCF Ltd. and dairy co-operative societies will be
involved in selection of farmers for implementation of ADS besides assessing the
requirement & introducing right kind of technologies with the best management
practices for the dairy activity.
Introduction of CB cows, AI facility, feeds at reasonable rates, veterinary services and

scientific management practices are crucial for improving production and productivity
of dairy products. Towards this end, the identified dairy farmers will be provided
training on capacity building on scientific rearing and management of milch animals
and also cultivation of green fodder to reduce the input cost. These programmes will
be done in coordination with the line departments, KVK and ICAR. NABARD’s
promotional programmes, as may be eligible, may be dovetailed for training cum
exposure of the dairy farmers with the training institutes / centres within and outside
the State.

DAIRY DEVELOPMENT
LONGLENG DISTRICT (NAGALAND) – LONGLENG BLOCK
1. Introduction
Animal Husbandry sector plays a vital role in the rural economy. It provides gainful
employment to the rural people with the production of milk, meat, egg, wool, etc. As
per the Livestock Census 2012 of Nagaland, the total cattle population in the district
was 9818. The development of livestock is important for economic upliftment of the
rural poor through providing allied activities to agriculture to the farmers. It influences
the socio-economic life and physical wellbeing of the tribal people of the State.
Agriculture has been confined to a limited area and limited period of a year due to the
climate and topography of the State whereas livestock provides additional and added
means of livelihood in the rural areas. The evergreen vegetation provided a cheap
source of fodder for livestock. Despite having the positive factors for development of
livestock, the potential of livestock in Longleng district could not be exploited due to
lack of unscientific animal husbandry practices and realistic plan for the sector.
Government of India has since launched various subsidy oriented schemes under
animal husbandry sector to encourage banks to finance the activities viz. dairy,
piggery, goatery, poultry farming, etc. Dairy Entrepreneurship Development Scheme
(DEDS) is one of the schemes which was implemented with the considerabe positive
response from the farmers and bankers.
In view of the above, the Area Development Scheme (ADS) and Banking plan on Dairy
Development are prepared for the period from 2018-19 to 2022-23 involving selected
bank branches of the district. The main objective of ADS is to show visible impact to
the development under the activity and give a platform for formation of Producers
organization. It will help for capacity building of the farmers under the area of ADS
and facilitate in marketing of their produces/products and financing from the banks.
The document is prepared through a process of wide consultation with the
stakeholders at the district level. Data and information for preparation of ADS were
collected from the line departments.

As per the Livestock Census 2012, the cattle population was 9256 and buffaloes at 40
in the district. The District Veterinary and Animal Husbandry Dept. has been
providing health care, artificial insemination facilities and extension services. The
position of existing veterinary facilities in the district as per latest census is given
below:
i. Veterinary hospital 1
ii. Meat inspection centre 1
iii. Veterinary Health Centre 3
iv. Veterinary outpost 2
v. Disease diagnostic laboratory 1
vi. Veterinary Health Centre 2
vii. Stockmen centre 1
15
3. Selection of Area of the Scheme:
The Longleng block, covered under ADS for dairy, have been identified in consultation
with the various stakeholders viz. SBI, Animal Husbandry Services, Phom Baptist
Christian Association (PBCA), an NGO and Nagaland State Rural Livelihood Mission
(NSLRM), Longleng after considering the infrastructures available, adequate
connectivity with the district head quarter and developmental initiatives taken up
there, such as, formation of SHGs/JLGs to facilitate in better credit flow in the project
area.
The credit requirement of the project area will be catered by only bank branch viz.
State Bank of India, Longleng branch.
Selection of good borrowers is very important for implementation of Area

Development Scheme in a successful manner. During the course of awareness
programmes on cattle farming, veterinary health camps, etc. organised in the blocks,
the potential borrowers in the form of groups as well as individuals are identified and
priority for the purpose of ADS has been given to the members of SHGs, JLGs and
individuals selected by Village Development Boards, Village Councils and Church
bodies. The banks can also identify potential borrowers of their own from their
customers / clients in the block. PBCA, Longleng (NGO), KVK, Longleng, NSRLM and
Village Level Organizations shall facilitate the bank in identifying good borrowers.
The Animal Husbandry & Veterinary Services, Longleng and KVK, Longleng may
jointly take the responsibility for providing training and capacity building of
beneficiaries/potential borrowers.

(a) Strengths:
 Potential supplementary activity for doubling the farmer’s income.
 Presence of milk chilling plant in district helps in marketing.
 Technical support from the Veterinary Department, KVK, State Cattle
Breeding Farm, Milk Chilling Units etc.
 Large area under permanent pastures providing adequate green fodder.
(b) Weaknesses:
 Inadequate infrastructures viz. absence of cattle breeding farm / quality
livestock breeds, High cost of concentrate feed / quality feeds and other inputs,
milk processing units, milk route, etc.
 Inadequate awareness among the farmers on scientific dairy farming.
(c) Opportunities:
 Growing demand for milk from consumers in the area due to increasing
income level and general health consciousness of the people.
 Good road connectivity and proximity to Assam may help to access market.
 Credit linked capital subsidy schemes available through bank finance –Dairy
Entrepreneurship Development Scheme (DEDs).
 Therefore, the banks may explore for financing cattle breeding units in the
district.
(d) Threats
 Reluctant by banks to finance dairy/agricultural loans due to high NPA.
 Changes in Government policy may lead to poor flow of bank finance.
13. Implementation and Monitoring:
reviewed in DLCC meetings. Issues/difficulties arising during the course of
implementation will be discussed at DCC and corrective measures will be taken up.
review and discussion. Thus, a strict mechanism will be set up for monitoring and
review of the scheme.
14. Conclusion
This Area Development Scheme has been formulated by NABARD in consultation

with bankers, KVK, NGOs, NSRLM, Dept. of Veterinary and Animal Husbandry etc.
This Scheme will definitely make an impact on the livelihood of poor and marginal
farmers of the district. The small and marginal farmers will get an opportunity for
starting livelihood activities through dairy farming. The programme will also increase
the agricultural lending/PSL of banks thereby increasing GLC flow of the district. The
programme will also provide a good platform for convergence of schemes and
programmes of State Government / CSS implemented by various departments.
Increased dairy animals in the district shall boost in milk production and other dairy
products in the district.

DAIRY DEVELOPMENT
MOKOKCHUNG DISTRICT (NAGALAND) – ONGPANGKONG SOUTH

AND CHUCHUYIMLANG BLOCKS
1. Introduction
Animal Husbandry Sector plays a vital role in the rural economy. It not only provides
gainful employment to the rural people but also provides livestock products such as
milk, meat, egg, wool, etc. The development of livestock is vital for the economic
upliftment of the rural poor by providing subsidiary occupation to the farmers. It also
plays a vital role in the socio-economic life and physical wellbeing of the tribal of the
State. Agriculture has been confined to a limited area and to a limited period of the
year due to the prevailing climate and topography of the State, whereas livestock
rearing has provided them additional and added means of livelihood. Traditionally,
the Nagas are fond of rearing various species of livestock particularly cattle, pigs and
poultry birds. High consumption of meat and an ever-increasing population are some
of the factors that have given an impetus to the growth of the livestock and poultry
sector in the State. The availability of evergreen vegetation is an easy and cheap source
of fodder for the livestock. Animal husbandry is undertaken as a subsidiary
occupation. However, lack of scientific animal husbandry practices, the potential of
livestock production could not be exploited fully in the district.
Government of India has launched various schemes under animal husbandry sector to
encourage banks to finance for diversified activities under dairy, sheep, goat, pig and
poultry farming. Dairy Entrepreneurship Development Scheme (DEDS) is one of these
schemes which received overwhelming response from farmers throughout the
country.
This Area Development Scheme (ADS) with Banking plan for dairy development has
been prepared for implementation during the plan period of 5(five) years from 2018-
19 to 2022-23 in the district involving eight bank branches. The main objective of the
ADS is to give visible impact on dairy development and give a platform for formation
of Producers Organization. It will also help in collective marketing and capacity
building of the farmers which in turn will make the banks easier to finance.
The document is prepared through a process of wide consultations with all

collected from various line departments.
As per 19th Livestock Census 2012, cattle population in the district is 10569 and
buffaloes is 311. There is one State Cattle Breeding Farm in Ongpangkong South Block,

The District Veterinary and Animal Husbandry Dept. has been providing health care,
artificial insemination facilities and extension services. The position of existing
veterinary facilities in the district as per the latest census is given below:

i Veterinary hospital 1
ii. Disease Diagnostic Lab 2
iii Veterinary dispensary 8

viii Poultry farm 1
ix Pig breeding centre 1
x Artificial Insemination center 1
xi Goatery demonstration unit 1
There is no cattle breeding farm in the private sector and as such farmers have to buy
quality/exotic breeds from outside of the district. The banks may explore possibility of
financing such units. Moreover, lack of knowledge on scientific method of cattle
rearing of the farmers severely affects this venture. Non-availability of improved
breeds at low cost affects small and marginal farmers.
3. Selection of area:
The blocks and villages to be covered under ADS for dairy activity has been identified
in consultation with various stakeholders which include the line department, banks,
Nagaland State Rural Livelihood Mission, Care & Support Society (NGO), etc. after
considering the infrastructures available i.e. Veterinary Health Centre in
Ongpangkong block, good connectivity and various other initiatives taken up such as
formation of Farmers Clubs, SHGs and JLGs to facilitate better credit flow in the
blocks. The blocks identified are Ongpangkong South and Chuchuyimlang.
The credit requirement of the identified blocks will be catered by 8 bank branches,
comprising 6 commercial banks, 1 Rural Bank and 1 State Co-operative Bank
participating in the ADS.
Selection of good potential borrowers is the key factor for successful implementation
of ADS. The AH Department, Mokokchung has conducted awareness programmes on
cattle farming in these identified blocks. Veterinary camps are organised in these
blocks on regular intervals. There are many potential borrowers either individual and
/ or group. To cover under ADS, priority will be given to members of Farmers Clubs,
SHGs, Joint Liability Groups and individuals identified by Village Development
Boards, Village Councils and Church Bodies. The banks can also identify potential
borrowers at their level. Care and Support Society (NGO), KVK, Mokokchung,
Nagaland State Rural Livelihood Mission (NSRLM) and Village Level Organizations
will facilitate the bank in identifying good borrowers.
21
AH & Vety. Department and KVK, Mokokchung may take up the responsibility of
providing training and capacity building of beneficiaries / potential borrowers.

12. SWOT analysis:
(a) Strengths:
 Potential supplementary activity for doubling of the farmer’s income.
 Presence of milk chilling plant in the district helps in marketing.
 Technical support from AH & Veterinary Department, KVK, State Cattle
Breeding Farm, Milk chilling units, etc.
 Large area under permanent pastures provide sufficient fodder supply.
(b) Weaknesses:
 Inadequate infrastructures viz. absence of quality livestock animals, quality
feeds, milk processing units, milk collection arrangements, etc.
 Lack of awareness among majority of the farmers on scientific dairy farming.
(c) Opportunities:
 Growing demand for milk due to health consciousness and increasing income
level of the people.
 Good road connectivity and proximity to State of Assam will lead to access
market.
 Implementation of credit linked capital subsidy scheme of GoI i.e. DEDS.
25
(d) Threats
 Banks are reluctant to extend credit for livestock /agricultural loans due to high
NPAs.
13. Implementation and Monitoring:
The ADS will be approved in the DCC meeting and launched formally.
Issues/difficulties arising during the course of implementation will be discussed in the
DCC meeting and required measures will be taken up. The participating banks will
submit the progress report to LDM on branch-wise for review and discussion in the
DCC meetings. Thus, a full-fledged monitoring mechanism will be set up for review of
progress of the scheme.
14. Conclusion
bankers, KVK, NGOs, NSRLM, AH & Vety. Dept., etc. This Scheme will definitely make
a positive impact on the livelihood of small and marginal farmers of the district. The
farmers will get an opportunity for starting livelihood activities through dairy farming.
The Scheme will also give impetus in increasing the agricultural lending/PSL of banks
of the district. The programme will also provide a good platform for convergence of
schemes and programmes of State Government/CSS implemented by various
departments. On implementation of the scheme, the production of milk in the district
will increase and provide additional income in the hands of the farmers for achieving
the target of doubling of farmers’ income by 2022.

DAIRY DEVELOPMENT
TUENSANG DISTRICT (NAGALAND) – CHARE BLOCK
1. Introduction
Dairy Development has become an important occupation for generating direct and
indirect employment for small and marginal farmers of Nagaland. The State has a
cattle and buffalo population of 2.35 lakh and 0.33 lakh respectively as per the 19th
Livestock Census 2012. Cross bred cattle account for about 55% of the total cattle
population. As per the Sample Survey Report, the estimated milk production during
2015-16 was 77690 tonnes and requirement of milk has been assessed at 117710
tonnes. This puts the shortfall in milk production at 40020 tonnes of which the State
imports 2900 tonnes of milk with a monetary value of Rs.83.33 crore. The scope for
dairy farming on commercial lines is, therefore, tremendous considering the
availability, consumption patterns, high demand, etc. in the state.
There is an urgent need for implementation of an Area Development Scheme (ADS)

on “Dairy Development” to promote it in a planned manner by focussing on existing
infrastructure, stage of present development, scope for increasing the activity, number
of units to be set up, Government support available, credit support needed to expand
and strengthen the activity, etc,. The benefits of ADS are as under:

necessary.
As per Livestock Census 2012, the total cattle population in Tuensang district was
27,973 out of which 28.33% was indigenous cattle as detailed below:

district), Tuensang (Tuensang district) and Jalukie (Peren district), including a cattle
feed plant at Kohima, for producing quality heifers through Artificial Inseminations
(AIs) and to increase milk production. They have also streamlined their cattle breeding
areas and Holstein Friesian (HF) in the higher altitude. Accordingly, AI services are now
made available to dairy farmers at an affordable cost and the department has also
envisaged the setting up milk processing infrastructures along important milk routes
which may bring about considerable improvement in the status of dairy sector in due
course of time. Initiatives are also being taken to preserve local breed cows which are
suitable to the local climate.
The Nagaland Livestock Development Board (NLDB) and Nagaland State Dairy
Cooperative Federation Limited (NSDCF Ltd.) are the main arms of the Department
in promoting cattle and dairy development activities through scientific breeding
method. The entire gamut of dairy development operations in the state has been
entrusted to the NSDCF Ltd. which was set up as a state apex body in the year 2002.
There are 7 Dairy Co-operative Societies registered under Tuensang district (Nagaland
Statistical Handbook 2015).
Six villages under Chare Block, Tuensang District have been selected for
implementation of Area Development Scheme (ADS) for “Dairy Development”. Their
location near National Highway, connection by all-weather roads, availability of green
fodder, presence of dairy societies, beneficiaries under Dairy Entrepreneurship
Development Scheme (DEDS), etc, have all contributed to the selection process. As per
2011 census, the total no. of households and population in the ten selected villages is
1194 and 7281 respectively, majority of whom are dependent on agriculture and allied
activities for their livelihood. Presently, State Bank of India, Chare Branch and NStCB,
Tuensang Branch are catering to the banking requirements of the selected villages.
animals will provide manure for his fields and milk for his consumption and sale. This
is a good source of additional income and help in achieving the stated objective of GoI
Out of the total 36,742 households in Tuensang District, 5,750 households and 1 non-
household enterprise/ institution are having cattle. As per 2011 census, the total no. of
households and population in Chare Block is 1194 and 7281 respectively and a sizeable
number of them are already engaged in dairy activity. However, majority of them are
undertaking this activity without bank loan. Hence, the ADS, inter-alia, seeks to assist
at least 74 rural households with bank finance during a period of five (5) years from
2018-23.
28
For selection of beneficiaries and implementation of ADS, the Department of Animal
Husbandry and Veterinary Services, NLDB, NSDCF Ltd., Northeast Rural Livelihood
Project (NERLP) and Better Life Foundation (BLF) will be directly involved. This will
ensure identification of genuine dairy farmers and adoption of right technologies
including management practices.
Introduction of Cross Breed (CB) cows, AI facility, feeds at reasonable rates, veterinary
services and scientific management practices are the need of the hour to improve
production and productivity of the dairy sector. To address this issue, the identified
dairy farmers will be given capacity building training on scientific rearing and
management of cattle including cultivation of fodder to reduce the input cost. These
programmes will be conducted in collaboration with the line departments of the State
Government, KVK and ICAR
Good quality CB cows will be introduced under the ADS for setting up Small Dairy
Unit of size 1 + 1. They will be sourced either from the State Cattle Breeding Farms or
from local breeders to ensure their adaptability, tolerance of the climatic conditions,
disease resistance, etc. The plan has been prepared with the following assumptions:

The NLDB, NSDCF Ltd, Northeast Rural Livelihood Project (NERLP) and Better Life
Foundation (BLF) will play a very vital role in the selected villages for grounding the
ADS on Small Dairy Farm. They will be instrumental for identifying genuine dairy
farmers, technology transfer, procurement of milk, developing linkage with banks and
ensuring the proper end use of credit including timely repayment of bank loans. They
will also facilitate the dairy farmers to develop long term relationships with other
various development agencies for convergence of efforts / programmes for training,
exposure visit, marketing support, supply of inputs, etc.

Under the Service Area Approach (SAA), State Bank of India, Chare Branch is having
service area responsibility in the selected six villages where ADS will be implemented.
Besides, NStCB, Tuensang Branch is also catering to the banking requirements of the
area. Popularization of the Dairy Entrepreneurship Development Scheme (DEDS) by
NABARD has also encouraged dairying with credit support from banks. This has
resulted in dairy farmers taking up the activity with credit support from the banks.

12. SWOT analysis
a. Strengths:
 A sustainable livestock population will drive the local economy.
 There is vast scope for introduction of improved breeds for improvement
of the milk production.
 Milk consumption is becoming a regular part of the diet. Hence, the
demand for it is likely to rise continuously.
 Easy availability of green fodder will reduce the input cost of the farmer.
b. Weaknesses:
 Milk production system is still dominated by low yielding animals.
 Erratic power supply and poor road condition continues to be a
challenge for procurement and supply of good quality milk.
 Cold chain infrastructure is poor.
 Inadequate access to Artificial Insemination facility, feeds, insurance
and veterinary services.
31
c. Opportunities:
 Qualified local individuals will set up enterprises for fulfilling the needs
of backward and forward linkages. Here, they can approach banks for
assistance under ACABC Scheme to set up extension facilities thereby
supplementing the government extension systemfor the benefit of the
farmers.
 The credit linked subsidy extended by GoI from time to time, to
encourage dairying, can also be availed by dairy farmers for introduction
of CB cows and increasing milk production.
d. Threats:
production due to heat stress and reduced availability of water are some
of the effects of climate change on livestock. All these will affect the
health of the animal and income of farmer.
 Lack of awareness about quality parametersamong dairy farmers could
affect the industry.

 Cover six recognised villages under Chare Block of Tuensang district.
 Involve the NLDB, NSDCF Ltd, NERLP, BLF and Department of Animal
Husbandry and Veterinary Services for targeted intervention.
improving housing, quality feed and management of health & diseases.
 ICAR, KVK and veterinary clinics will provide reliable extension services
and capacity building of beneficiaries, including marketing linkages
wherever required.
 District Administration, Lead Bank and NABARD will monitor the progress
vis-à-vis ADS plan on a quarterly basis during the DCC meetings under the
Chairmanship of the Deputy Commissioner, Tuensang.
14. Conclusion / Ownership:
The ADS has been formulated by NABARD in consultation with various line
departments and other stakeholders to realise the above goal and objective. During the
course of its implementation, every effort will be made to ensure that an effective
system is grounded and owned by all the stakeholdersto ensure uninterrupted credit
flow from Financial Institutions for undertaking dairy and other Income Generating
Activities (IGAs).

DAIRY DEVELOPMENT
WOKHA DISTRICT (NAGALAND) – BHANDARI BLOCK
1. Introduction
Animal Husbandry sector plays a vital role in the rural economy. Dairy Development
is next to agriculture activity in the District It not only provides gainful employment
to the rural people, but also provides livestock products such as milk, meat, egg, wool,
etc. As per the Livestock Census 2012, the total cattle population in the district is
16536. Animal Husbandry activities play an important role in the economic upliftment
of people living in the rural areas, as many families take up animal husbandry as a
subsidiary occupation for additional income. This sector provides nutritious food of
animal origin. It is an important component of integrated farming models and
provides stimulus for organic farming. It also plays a vital role in the socio-economic
life and physical wellbeing of the tribal of the State. Agriculture has been confined to a
limited area and to a limited period of the year due to the prevailing climate and
topography of the State, whereas livestock rearing has provided them additional and
added means of livelihood. Traditionally, the Nagas are fond of rearing various species
of livestock particularly cattle, pigs and poultry birds. High consumption of meat and
an ever-increasing population are some of the factors that have given an impetus to
the growth of the livestock and poultry sector in the State. The availability of evergreen
vegetation is an easy and cheap source of fodder for the livestock. Animal husbandry
is undertaken as a subsidiary occupation. However, due to lack of unscientific animal
husbandry practices, the production potential of livestock in the district has not been
exploited.
Doubling real income of farmers till 2022-23 over the base year of 2015-16, requires
annual growth of 10.41 per cent in farmers’ income. This implies that the on-going and
previously achieved rate of growth in farm income has to be sharply accelerated.
Therefore, strong measures will be needed to harness all possible sources of growth in
farmers' income within as well as outside agriculture sector. Dairying is mostly
undertaken as a supplementary activity in addition to farming. At present dairying is
a very profitable business owing to the high subsidy rates which cover 50% of the
animal cost and availability of milk incentive. Farmers have to take proper care of the
animals, follow good husbandry practices and dairying has to be done in a scientific
manner. Fodder cultivation is undertaken by the farmer is an added bonus.
Supplementary activities like vermicomposting further increases the farmer’s income.
The cow dung also provides a ready slurry for production of organic manures.
Government of India has launched various schemes under animal husbandry sector to
encourage banks to finance for diversified activities under dairy, sheep, goat, pig and
poultry farming. Dairy Entrepreneurship Development Scheme (DEDS) is one of these
schemes which got overwhelming response among farmers throughout the country.
In view of the above, this Area Development Scheme (ADS) and Banking plan has been
prepared by for implementation from 2018-19 to 2022-23 in the district involving
identified bank branches in the district. The main objective of the ADS is to give visible
impact to development in this sector and give a platform for formation of Producers
organization. It will also help in collective marketing and capacity building of the
farmers which in turn will make the banks easier to finance.
33
The document is prepared through a process of wide consultations with all
collected from various line departments.
2. Forward and backward linkages: As per the 19th Livestock Census 2012,
the population of cattle and buffalo population in the district according to the
Livestock Census of 2012 is as follows.
Category Male Female Total
A.CROSS BRED CATTLE 4429 8643 13072
B. INDIGENOUS CATTLE 1233 2231 3464
C. BUFFALOES 162 270 432
The total cattle population in Wokha district is 27292, of which 36% was indigenous
cattle.
The District Veterinary and Animal Husbandry Dept. has been providing health care,
Artificial Insemination facilities and extension services. There are no Cattle breeding
farm in the district in public as well as in private sector and as such farmers have to
buy quality/exotic breeds from outside of the district. The banks may explore
possibility of financing such units. Non availability of fodder and high cost of animal
feeds are problems faced by farmers leading to poor financial return. Moreover, lack
of knowledge of farmers on scientific method of cattle rearing also severely affects this
venture.
3. Selection of area:
The blocks and villages identified to covered under ADS for dairy activity has been
identified in consultation with various stakeholders which include Banks, Department
of Veterinary and Animal Husbandry Services, NGO and Nagaland State Rural
Livelihood Mission after considering the infrastructures available, good connectivity
and various other initiatives taken up such as formation of SHGs and JLGs to facilitate
better credit flow in the blocks. The block identified is Bhandari Block.
The credit requirement of the identified block will be catered by State Bank of India,
Bhandari Branch.
The line department, NLDB, NSDCF Ltd. and dairy co-operative societies will be
involved in selection of farmers for implementation of ADS besides assessing the
requirement & introducing right kind of technologies with the best management
practices for the dairy activity.
i) General Criteria adopted for selecting the beneficiaries
 Interest in Dairy Farming

 Availability of land for fodder cultivation
 Availability of water
 Availability of basic infrastructure such as space/yard, fodder & cattle shed
34
ii) Unit size
 Minimum unit size is 2 milch animals

 Depending upon the interest and resources of the farmers, multiple units of 2
milch animals can be considered

The training and capacity building on scientific rearing and feeding of the dairy
animals for beneficiaries should be done through the officers of the Department of
Veterinary and Animal Husbandry Services.

State Government:
Every effort will be made by all institutional stakeholders such as Department of

Animal Husbandry & Vety Services, NABARD, NSRLM, Banks, NGOs, etc. to achieve
convergence and synergy for dairy development in the district. The State government
may set up necessary infrastructure and expand the existing ones. Besides, banks will
also explore potential for financing of such infrastructure in the private sector. DAH
& Vety /KVK may ensure training & capacity building of all borrowers under the
scheme. The GoI Scheme of National Livestock Mission may be converged with the
Area development scheme. NABARD on its part will prepare banking plan, get it
approved by DLCC; ensure implementation of the plan through regular review and
monitoring in DLCC meetings with banks and line departments; facilitate capacity
building of beneficiaries of the plan through training institutes /KVK and DAH& Vety.
Services and provide exposure visits whenever required.
This Area Development Scheme has been formulated by NABARD in consultation

with bankers, KVK, NGOs, Dept. of Veterinary and Animal Husbandry etc. This
Scheme will definitely make an impact on the livelihood of poor and marginal farmers
of the district. The poor and marginal farmers will get a good opportunity for starting
livelihood activities through dairy farming. The programme will also increase the
agricultural lending/PSL of banks thereby increasing GLC flow of the district. There
will be more number of milch animals in the district and production of dairy milk in
the district will increase.

DAIRY DEVELOPMENT
ZUNHEBOTO DISTRICT (NAGALAND) – AKULUTO BLOCK
1. Introduction
The production of milk in Nagaland is negligible and thus milk and milk products are
being supplied from outside the State to meet the requirement. The main reasons of
low milk production were due to rearing local nondescript dairy animals coupled with
poor management of the business. There is a need for implementation of Area
Development Scheme (ADS) on dairy development to promote the activity in a
planned manner focussing on existing infrastructure, status of present development,
scope for expanding the activity, number of units to be set up, Government support
available, credit support needed to expand and strengthen the activity, etc. The

district), Tuensang (Tuensang district) and Jalukie (Peren district), including a cattle
feed plant at Kohima, for producing quality heifers through Artificial Inseminations
(AIs) and to increase milk production. They have also streamlined their cattle breeding
areas and Holstein Friesian (HF) in the higher altitude. Accordingly, AI services are now
40
made available to dairy farmers at an affordable cost and the department has also
envisaged the setting up milk processing infrastructures along important milk routes
which may bring about considerable improvement in the status of dairy sector in due
course of time. Initiatives are also being taken to preserve local breed cows which are
suitable to the local climate. However, in Zunheboto district, the beneficial impact of
dairy farming is yet to be felt due to poor network of veterinary services, infrastructure
and awareness. As per Nagaland Statistical Handbook 2016, there are eighteen (18)
Dairy Co-operative Societies registered under Zunheboto district and the present level
of milk production is low which is sold and consumed locally. Further, majority of the
local dairy farmers are unable to access the services and facilities of Nagaland
Livestock Development Board (NLDB) and Nagaland State Dairy Cooperative
Federation Limited (NSDCF Ltd.), both located in Kohima district, due to distance
factor.
Ten (10) villages under Akuluto block of Zunheboto district have been selected for
implementation of Area Development Scheme (ADS) on “Dairy Development”. Their
location near the state highway connecting Kohima and Mokokchung towns,
availability of green fodder and presence of dairy farmers, especially in two (2) villages
viz. Akuluto and VK have all contributed to the selection process. As per 2011 census,
the total no. of households and population in the ten selected villages is 1575 and 7368
respectively, majority of whom are dependent on agriculture and allied activities for
their livelihood. Presently, the State Bank of India is catering to the banking
requirements of the selected villages.

is a good source of additional income and help in achieving the stated objective of GoI
Under Akuluto block, the total cattle population and No. of households engaged in
dairy activity is furnished below in the table:

5 No. of indigenous cattle 15807 1633 10.33
Total (4+5): 27292 2476 9.07
It can be seen from the above table that 7.68% of the households, including non-
households, under Akuluto block of Zunheboto district are already engaged in dairy
activity, majority of whom are from the ten selected villages. However, most of the
dairy farmers are undertaking this activity without bank loan. Hence, the ADS, inter-
41
alia, seeks to assist total of 130 existing dairy farmers and also fresh benefciaries with
bank finance during a period of five (5) years from 2018-23.
For selection of beneficiaries and implementation of ADS, the Department of Animal

Husbandry and Veterinary Services, KVK Zunheboto at Lumami and existing dairy
farmers will be directly involved. This will ensure identification of genuine dairy
farmers and adoption of right technologies including management practices.
Introduction of Cross Breed (CB) cows, AI facility, feeds at reasonable rates, veterinary
services and scientific management practices are the need of the hour to improve
production and productivity of the dairy sector. To address this issue, the identified
dairy farmers will be given capacity building training on scientific rearing and
management of cattle including cultivation of fodder to reduce the input cost. These
programmes will be conducted in collaboration with the line departments of the State
Government, KVK and ICAR. Here, NABARD’s promotional funds can also be utilized
for training cum exposure of the dairy farmers to training institutes within and outside
the State.
Good quality CB cows will be introduced under the ADS for setting up Small Dairy
Unit of size 1 + 1. They will be sourced either from the State Cattle Breeding Farms or
from local breeders to ensure their adaptability, tolerance of the climatic conditions,
disease resistance, etc. The plan has been prepared with the following assumptions:

The Department of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Services, GoN and KVK
Zunheboto will be at the forefront for grounding the ADS on Small Dairy Farm. From
the initial stage itself, efforts will also be made to rope in the NLDB, NSDCF Ltd. and
existing dairy societies for identifying genuine dairy farmers, technology transfer,
procurement of milk, developing linkage with banks and ensuring the proper end use
of credit including timely repayment of bank loans. They will also facilitate the dairy
farmers to develop long term relationships with other various development agencies
for convergence of efforts / programmes for training, exposure visit, marketing
support, supply of inputs, etc.
The project cost for setting up a Small Dairy Farm with two (1 + 1) CB cows is given
below in the table:

Total 169900
Under the Service Area Approach (SAA), the State Bank of India, Lumami branch is
having service area responsibility in the entire block. To encourage dairying, the
NABARD is popularizing Dairy Entrepreneurship Development Scheme (DEDS) and
during the year 2016-17, one (1) dairy unit involving loan amount of Rs. 3.24 lakh and
subsidy of Rs. 1.20 lakh was financed by NStCB, Zunheboto branch. Depending on the
progress of implementation, more banks will be involved to take the ADS to its logical
conclusion.

12. SWOT analysis
a. Strengths:
 A sustainable livestock population will drive the local economy.

 There is vast scope for introduction of improved breeds for improvement
of the milk production.
 Milk consumption is becoming a regular part of the diet. Hence, the
demand for it is likely to rise continuously.
 Easy availability of green fodder will reduce the input cost of the farmer.
44
b. Weaknesses:
 Milk production system is still dominated by low yielding animals.

 Erratic power supply and poor road condition continues to be a
challenge for procurement and supply of good quality milk.
 Cold chain infrastructure is poor.
 Inadequate access to Artificial Insemination facility, feeds, insurance
and veterinary services.
c. Opportunities:
 Qualified local individuals will set up enterprises for fulfilling the needs
of backward and forward linkages. Here, they can approach banks for
assistance under ACABC Scheme to set up extension facilities thereby
supplementing the government extension systemfor the benefit of the
farmers.
 The credit linked subsidy extended by GoI from time to time, to
encourage dairying, can also be availed by dairy farmers for introduction
of CB cows and increasing milk production.
d. Threats:

production due to heat stress and reduced availability of water are some
of the effects of climate change on livestock. All these will affect the
health of the animal and income of farmer.
 Lack of awareness about quality parameters among dairy farmers could
affect the industry.
 Cover ten (10) recognised villages under Akuluto block of Zunheboto

district.
 Involve the NLDB, NSDCF Ltd, dairy societies, KVK Zunheboto and
Department of Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Services for targeted
intervention.
availability of quality animals, introduction of Artificial Insemination
(AI), improving housing, quality feed and management of health &
diseases.
45
 ICAR, KVK Zunheboto and veterinary clinics will provide reliable
extension services and capacity building of beneficiaries, including
marketing linkages wherever required.
 District Administration, Lead Bank and NABARD will monitor the
under the Chairmanship of the Deputy Commissioner, Zunheboto.
14. Conclusion
 Ownership: The ADS has been formulated by NABARD in consultation with

various line departments and other stakeholders to realise the above goal and
objective. During the course of its implementation, every effort will be made to
ensure that an effective system is grounded and owned by all the stakeholders to
ensure uninterrupted credit flow from Financial Institutions for undertaking
dairy and other Income Generating Activities (IGAs).

POULTRY DEVELOPMENT
47
POULTRY
KIPHIRE DISTRICT (NAGALAND)
1. Introduction:
Agriculture is the mainstay of the economy of Kiphire District and the source of
employment for majority of its rural inhabitants. There are 18,450 cultivators of the
total population of 74,004 (as per 2011 census). The gross cropped area is 48,550 Ha
and 90% of the population is engaged in agriculture. Most of the farmers in the district
depend on monsoon for cultivation purpose. The main crops are Rice, Maize, Millet,
Cabbage, Yam, Pulses, Ginger, Bananas etc.
Animal Husbandry sector has immense potential for development in the district.
Poultry farming is one of the fastest growing activities in the allied sector. It offers vast
scope for income generation for small and marginal farmers and landless labourers
living in economically backward areas. It also provides high protein food addressing
the malnutrition problem among the poorer sections of the population. Kiphire district
has good potential for undertaking poultry farming where more than 95% people are
non-vegetarian. The district is by and large linked with all-weather roads essential for
speedy and frequent movement of inputs like day old chicks, vaccines, feed
concentrates, etc. As per the Livestock Census of 2012, the total poultry population of
the district is estimated at 1,20,776.
There is a good demand for poultry products in the district. It has good potential for
broiler units. These units can be sustained through sufficient heating arrangements
with local low cost methods during adverse weather. The key to poultry farming
depends on the availability of good quality day old chicks and feed. For poultry
development, investments are being made both for commercial units of 1000 birds
and small units of 500 birds. There is a good demand for meat in the district and the
farmers are not facing any problem in marketing of their poultry products. Poultry
rearing is backyard activity and is part and parcel of the local culture and tradition.
However, despite its demand, the district is deficient in poultry production as the
demand far exceeds the local supply. Poultry rearing offers vast scope for income
generation for small and marginal farmers and landless labourers living in
economically backward areas. In view of the substantial gap between demand and
supply, further increase in the animal population will not lead to problems of
marketing. The district has good potential for undertaking poultry where more than
95% people are non-vegetarian.
prepared by NABARD for implementation from 2018-19 to 2022-23 in Kiphire district
financing various poultry activities are the major objectives of the plan.
As per the 19th Quinquennial Livestock Census 2012, population of poultry in the
district is 1,20,776. The district has got one Veterinary Hospital and one Veterinary
48
Dispensary. The extension facilities to farmers are available from the Department of
Veterinary & Animal Husbandry in the district.
The district has no hatchery and is dependent on external sources for procurement of
Day Old Chicks (DOCs). There is no processing unit for meat and the marketing is
unorganized. Retail sales of poultry meat in the district are mainly through traditional
markets that lack infrastructure. Poultry production is mainly based on family labour
and feeds gathered or produced by the household.
The Area Development Scheme for development of poultry sector will be implemented
in all the blocks of the district as per the potential available. All the branches of State
Bank of India (SBI) and Nagaland State Cooperative Bank (NStCB) in the district will
be involved in extending credit for successful implementation of this Area
Development Scheme.

potential farmers is important. The beneficiaries will be selected at individual level or
at group level, availability of the space for poultry rearing, concentrate feed sourcing,
experience, etc. Veterinary officials with support of identified NGOs may be engaged
for selection of beneficiaries from good SHGs / Farmers’ Clubs / JLGs in the district.
Besides, Department of Animal Husbandry will create awareness about poultry on
scientific lines in the district under the scheme. Concerned departments may conduct
veterinary health camps and provide training to the beneficiaries of the plan on
scientific poultry farming.
The Department of Animal Husbandry will be responsible for training and capacity
building of beneficiaries.
The project report has been worked out subject to the following conditions:
 Hybrid Broiler Chicks will be purchased from commercial hatcheries for every
batch.
 Sale price of finisher birds will change in accordance with change in purchase
price of feed & chick. The scheme is a broad guideline and is likely to vary as per
the change in price/cost of various specified items.
 Bio-security measures must be strictly adopted.
 Cost of labour has not been taken into consideration since full time labour is
not required for the small unit. Family labour will be utilized for maintenance
of the farm.
 As a bio-security measure against avian influenza all in all out preventive
measures will be adopted.
 The scheme is workable on the above guidelines if run by the entrepreneur on
scientific lines.
49
Housing for broiler chicken
 Floor – One square feet floor space per bird is required for broiler chicken. The
floor of the poultry house should be concrete cemented, strong & rodent proof
and have slope towards door. Plinth should be 2ft. higher than ground.
 Walls - Lengthwise wall may be only one foot high, brick wall on sides, 4ft wire
netting above brick wall should be supported with angle iron. End wall of
poultry house should be made of bricks. Maximum breadth of poultry house
should be 27 feet. There should be partition in every 500 square feet.
 Doors – There should be two doors 4ft. wide and 6ft high opposite to each other.
 Roof – 12-14ft. high at the center and 6ft. high on the side wall with 3ft. hang
over beyond wall to prevent rain water from entering poultry house and to keep
litter dry. Roof should be of asbestos, cement asbestos, or tile.

state Govt.
Efforts should be made by all institutional stakeholders such as Department of

Animal Husbandry & Veterinary, NABARD, Banks, NGOs, etc. to achieve convergence
and synergy for commercialization of poultry farming in the district. The State
government may set up necessary infrastructure pertaining to pig rearing/breeding,
meat processing and marketing. Besides, banks will also explore potential for
financing of such infrastructure in the private sector and ensure training & capacity
building of all borrowers under the scheme. The GoI Scheme of National Livestock
50
Mission may be converged with the scheme. NABARD on its part will prepare banking
plan, get it approved by DCC and ensure implementation of the plan through regular
review and monitoring in DCC meetings with banks and line departments. Also,
facilitate capacity building of beneficiaries of the plan through concerned departments
on poultry and provide exposure visits whenever required.

The above analysis shows that the poultry unit is viable even if it runs for only one
cycle. Climate conditions of the district are not that suitable to the Poultry activity due
to severe winter. Further, sometimes the erratic power supply may affect artificial
warming arrangement of the unit thus endangering the birds. As such the unit may
run only two to four cycles instead of six cycles.
SHGs and JLGs can take this activity gainfully on limited purpose, say one or two
cycles every year to begin with and can graduate to commercial unit on scientific basis
involving electrical warming arrangement with a small additional cost.
13. SWOT analysis:
 Strengths: i) Good market available. Growing demand for meat and eggs from
consumers in the area ii) Good connectivity in getting access to market
 Weaknesses: i) Inadequate awareness among the farmers on scientific
farming of poultry. ii) Non availability of poultry farm in the area.
 Opportunities: i) In the scheme area other supplementary activity will be
added which will enhance farmers income and thereby help in doubling the
farmers income.
 Threats: Adverse climatic conditions.

operation of the unit even for one cycle of two months. Further, subsidy is

16. Conclusion:

consultation with Veterinary & Animal Husbandry Department and Bankers. With
proper and successful implementation of the scheme, traditional backyard poultry
rearing will be converted/upgraded into commercial poultry farming benefitting the
rural farmers. This will contribute substantially in achieving the Government’s
objective of doubling farmers’ income by 2022. Further, the success of the scheme will
spur employment generation among small and marginal farmers.

PEREN DISTRICT (NAGALAND)
1. Introduction:
Agriculture is the mainstay of the economy of Peren District and the source of
total population of 1,63,418 (as per 2011 census). The gross cropped area is 34148 Ha
and 80.84% of the population is engaged in agriculture. Most of the farmers in the
district depend on monsoon for cultivation purpose. The main crops are Rice, Maize,
Millet, Cabbage, Yam, Pulses, Ginger, Banana, etc.
the malnutrition problem among the poorer sections of the population. Peren district
the district is estimated at 293790.
There is a good demand for poultry products in the district. It has good potential for
broiler units. These units can be sustained through sufficient heating arrangements
with local low cost methods during adverse weather. The key to poultry farming
depends on the availability of good quality day old chicks and feed. For poultry
development, investments are being made both for commercial units of 1000 birds
and small units of 500 birds. There is a good demand for meat in the district and the
farmers are not facing any problem in marketing of their poultry products. Poultry
rearing is backyard activity and is part and parcel of the local culture and tradition.
However, despite its demand, the district is deficient in poultry production as the
demand far exceeds the local supply. In view of the substantial gap between demand
and supply, further increase in the animal population will not lead to problems of
marketing.
