Agriculture is the mainstay of the Indian economy despite concerted in industrialization in the last six decades. The highest outlay on agriculture was during the First Plan, it was 31%.
  • The intensive Agricultural District Programme (IADP) followed by Highe Yielding Variety Programme (HYVP) was introduced durign the Third plan. First and Fifth Plan were the only plans which achieved the set targets.
  • Tenth plan did not set any targets for crop production.
  • The growth rate of agriculture during the Ninth and Tenth Plan were 2.4% and 2.3% respectively.

Agriculture in Eleventh Five year Plan

  • Eleventh Plan, recognizing the importance of agriculture in promoting inclusive growth, fixed the agriculture growth rate of 4%. Actual outlay in the Eleventh Plan is estimated to be 18.5% of the total plan outlay.
  • Contract farming was encouraged in fruits, vegetables and other crops.
  • In the first four years of Eleventh Plan, agriculture growth is estimated to be 3.5% with agriculture growing at the rate of 7.0% in 2011-12.

Agriculture in Twelfth Fiver Year Plan

  • The Approach Paper aims at growth rate of 4% per annum in agriculture sector, with food-grains growing at about 2% per year and non-foodgrains growing at 5.6%.
  • The Approach Paper has emphasized on technology as the main vehicle for improving productivity in agriculture as natural resources are fixed.

  3. By looking at the image you have given(usually i avoid long passage readings and try to figure out the idea by images first, hence) I thought that the idea of seven is there, but you were different so here comes an idea which clicks my mind when I saw this post first.

    One simple way is to remember them in group of 7. take it like
    1. ABCDEFG
    2. HIJKLMN
    3. OPQRSTU
    4. VWXYZ ( Five letters only, but not misguiding)
    ( make a rhythm of 4-3, 4-3,4-3, 2-3 ABCD-EFG, HIJK-LMN, OPQR-STU, VW-XYZ)
    by remembering them in these four group u can easily, confidently get the exact number of any alphabet and that's even without doubt, within a jiffy.

    Let's check
    Suppose I want to figure out Q...lemme count its in 3rd group..a group of OPQRSTU...now o is for fifteen( as we have made a group of seven, except last row), p is 16th and so Q is 17th.

    Try out this...it works..

  8. 45*55
    45/2*110 (55+55)
    instead of 110 we can write 100+10, so....
    22.5*(100+10)
    22.5*100 + 22.5*10
    2250+225
    =2475

    ReplyDelete
  15. please do reply.what are my chances to get selected for second round .i scored 67 in a.p circle general category

    ReplyDelete
  16. 53*11
    if 5+3=8 if the total was less than 10 means you place the total no (8) in between the numbers .583

    another example :42*11=462
    4+2 =6 it was less than 10 so insert the number between 4 and 2

  20. I have a doubt..regarding the step for multiplication by 5.
    You have given examples with even numbers so it becomes easy to divide the number by 2 and then multiply it with 10. But what if the number is odd? will it work still the same and give correct results?

    ReplyDelete
  21. Nice

    But plz explain 115 ×115.....?

    ReplyDelete
  22. Hai friendzzzz...
    Another Shortcut Method for Multiply 45*55:
    1st Step:
    Check the Conditions
    (i) Unit Digit is 5 (ex:25,35,45...)
    (ii) Difference of Tens in digits are 1.(ex:25*35, 3~2=1; 45*55, 4~5=1...)


    2nd Step:
    Adding larger number by 1 is 5+1 = 6, then multiply 6 by 4 (6*4) = 24
    Last two digit is only 75.


    Then the answer is 2475...
