Bharatpur's 2023-24 credit plan is worth about 6,128 crore. Farming is the heart of it — agriculture alone is roughly 4,607 crore (about 75% of the plan), while small businesses (MSME) account for 970 crore (16%) and the rest goes to housing, education, self-help groups and social projects.
The single biggest item is crop loans at 3,541 crore for bajra, wheat, mustard, guar and other local crops grown across the district's mostly tubewell-irrigated fields. Livestock is the next big theme: dairy at 318 crore, plus poultry, sheep, goats and fish. There is also room in plantation and horticulture (157 crore) and in food and agro-processing (159 crore), backed by named schemes like PM Kisan Sampada, PMFME and the Animal Husbandry Infrastructure Fund. Storage and market yards get 75 crore, and MSME credit of 970 crore is split almost evenly between setting up units and running them, helped by a state licence-fee waiver for new industry in its first three years.
The plan is blunt about the gaps: the district has very few food processing and packaging units, and oil mills, dal mills, pickle/murabba makers and cattle-feed units are scarce. NABARD wants the District Industries Centre and banks to push these together, run awareness and training for would-be entrepreneurs, lift investment in agriculture, and reach tenant and marginal farmers through joint-liability groups.
What the plan promotes
- Crop loans dominate at 3540.60 cr (58% of plan) across bajra, wheat, mustard, guar, til, chana, jowar and barley; the district has 390017 ha sown and 370062 ha irrigated (mainly tubewell).
- Dairy is the biggest allied opportunity at 318.03 cr, with poultry (13.23 cr), sheep/goat/piggery (20.80 cr) and fisheries (23.20 cr) adding to a livestock-heavy economy.
- Plantation & horticulture (incl. sericulture) carries 157.17 cr of potential; NABARD lists horticulture and irrigation expansion among 2023-24 thrust areas.
- Food & agro processing has 159.20 cr of credit potential, anchored by proposed agro-processing units (total ancillary line 183.36 cr).
- MSME potential of 969.56 cr split roughly evenly between term (483.20 cr) and working-capital (486.36 cr) credit, with state licence-fee relief for new industrial units for the first three years.
- Warehousing and market-yard storage carry 74.62 cr, targeting post-harvest handling gaps for grains and mustard.
Gaps the plan names
- Grain and food units, oil mills, dal mills, pickle & murabba units and cattle-feed processing units are scarce; the District Industries Centre and banks should jointly promote these activities so quality is built into farm produce.
- Food processing and packaging units in the district are very few and their number needs to be increased.
- Awareness and training programmes through linkage agencies are needed so entrepreneurs get proper information about the processing sector.
- Capital formation in agriculture is weak; government and private-sector investment in agriculture and allied sectors must be raised, with government schemes tied to bank credit to lift credit flow.
- Banks must coordinate with government to improve recovery of old overdue loans, and extend credit through joint-liability groups to oral lessees, tenant farmers and marginal farmers.
