Many initiatives have been taken up in the Horticulture sector to enhance
growth prospects of the economy of the Union Territory. The department has brought
out this book to bring before the public and to let them know about the schemes in an

ease manner.

Special focus is being given to improve the quality and enhance the quantity of
production by supporting high-density plantation programme.

Principal Secretary to Govt., This book shows the component wise nancial support which the farmers can
Horticulture Department avail for the establishment of orchard and other components under various schemes

of the department thereby opening huge employment opportunities for young men
and women of J&K. Besides it also depicts the eligibility criteria and procedure for
availing the said assistance.

It is an effort to provide the valuable information about the various Centrally

sponsored schemes and CAPEX Budget as well in a lucid way at the door steps of the
farming community.

I hope this booklet would ignite adequate interest and response from the
common masses especially farmers of the UT of J&K.
