A) 1 only
B) 2 and 3 only
C) 1 and 2 only
D) 1, 2 and 3
Correct Answer: C
Solution :
This initiative aims to demonstrate the improved production and post-harvest technologies in an integrated manner to catalyze increased production of millets in the country. The scheme, through processing and value addition techniques, is expected to generate consumer demand for millet based food products. Poor, small, marginal and tribal farmers have larger stake in this scheme. 1st and 2nd statements are right. Policy aims to give free kits but ?wanting to shift commercial crop farmers to millet? doesn?t fit logic. There is no such mention in the scheme, nor any talk about giving micro-irrigation equipment. Hence 3rd statement wrong. Ref:http://agricoop.nic.in/Ad)nin_Agricoop/ Uploaded_ File/IN SIMP.pdf
