2. A prosperous country A land of plenty Agriculture: Feeding the Nation Fisheries and Aquatic Resources Self Reliance in the Livestock Industry Irrigation: Water is Our Heritage and Life Plantation Economy
2.1 Agriculture: Feeding the Nation Overview Our farmers undergo severe suffering due to the scarcity of water, non availability of land, crop losses, and poor markets for their produce and lack of access to technology...... A new approach is necessary to resolve problems faced by farmers The Agriculture sector in Sri Lanka plays a key role in the country’s economic development and its new role in the future has now been redefined in the light of the new development vision and the future aspirations of the nation. At present, agriculture contributes about 13 percent to the country’s GDP and employs about 33 percent of its workforce. The government has given the priority to enhance the domestic production in which the success of such a policy was well demonstrated during the period where there was a world food crisis. Sri Lanka - The Emerging Wonder of Asia (Mahinda Chintana - 2005, p 43) The Tank and the Field; the Tank next to the Dagoba: This is our social foundation; Our very special heritage….. I revere Mother Earth. My forefathers cultivated this fertile land of ours…..Through the “Api Wavamu Rata Nagamu” programme, we have fulfilled the aspirations of the Mahinda Chintana that I presented in the section titled “Ketata Arunella”. I sincerely believe that the progress we have thus made in agriculture is as valuable as our victory in the war against terror (Mahinda Chintana – 2010, pp 81-82) Of the total cultivable land (2.9 mn ha), 65 percent (1.9 mn ha) is cultivated with agricultural crops. Paddy occupies 40 percent of the agricultural land. Coconut, tea and rubber together account for 39 percent. The remainder (21 percent) is accounted for all other crops; other field crops, horticultural crops and other export crops.
