http://www.deccanchronicle.com/nation/current-affairs/051216 /andhra-pradeshs-war-on-drought-fails-to-save-crop.html *** The "war on drought" with 100s of crores, announced with a lot fanfare by AP CM CBN has failed to yield the desired results with groundnut crop output plummeting. *** The CM himself led the campaign by camping in Anantapuramu for over four days while at least 10 ministers, a number of legislators, 21 IAS officers, 80 deputy collector-rank officers. *** The 'war' cost the exchequer a whopping Rs 280 crore with Rs 160 crore spent on procuring the rain guns alone. *** As against the normal yield of 1000 kg per hectare, the crop cutting experiment revealed that only 213 kg was achieved, indicating massive loss to the farmer. *** Interestingly, less than ten days after the "war on drought" was carried out, the Chief Minister released a glossy booklet with "success stories" of his mission and how the hapless farmers of perennially drought-hit Anantapuramu appreciated his "innovative idea" (of using rain guns). Asked about this, Palle said, "It was successful for that day"  |
