We have witnessed that farmers income has grown and in fact it is much-much better than compared to some other states and is even better than the national average.&rdquo;</p>\r\n            Dr Sahoo reiterated that his government is committed to usher in a sustainable and inclusive growth in the agriculture sector. &ldquo;Samrudhi, our new agriculture policy aims to cash on the untapped potential of the state&apos;s agriculture sector while ensuring an environmentally, economically and technologically inclusive growth. It also encompasses development of warehousing, quality testing infrastructure for better marketing of the crops as logistics plays an important role in agricultural production and supply chain management ultimately enhancing food safety, quality and help market farmers produce more effectively.&rdquo;\r\n           \r\n           Highlighting some of the steps being taken, he said, &ldquo;The existing network of procurement centres are being strengthened to benefit small and marginal farmers.

Udayabhaskar, Chief General Manager/OIC, NABARD, Odisha said that while Odisha is a goldmine for horticulture, dairy, fisheries, oilseeds and pulses, there is an urgent need to develop backward linkages, motivate the farmers, provide them with technical knowhow and capacity building.\r\n           \r\n           Highlighting various production level issues that are needed to be resolved to win away farmers from paddy and focus on other potential crops like banana, oilseeds, coconut, mango and others, he said, \"\\Unless these production level issues are taken up, it will be very difficult to create a logical, viable agri logistics system. So that said, we need to build up the agri infrastructure.&rdquo;\r\n           \r\n         He added, &ldquo;For Odisha to become self-sufficient to produce in a particular scale, the state also needs to solve issues like lack of cold storage system which is a key part of agri logistics.&rdquo;\r\n           \r\n          He also said that there is a need to welcome the startups and have an incubation center and suggested to redevelop and repair the Center of Excellence in Khordha.&nbsp; &ldquo;It is not in a proper shape after the cyclone and requires redevelopment and repairs.

So if the hospital sets up a 50 ton LMO storage facility which would usually cost them around Rs 70- 80 lakhs, Rs 50 lakhs would be given by the Delhi Government now,&rdquo; he said.</p>\r\n           \r\n            <p>He explained that during the second wave, Delhi faced an acute shortage of Oxygen during the treatment of patients, but this time they are well prepared. &ldquo;The demand had gone as high as 700-750 tons per day. This time, even in worst situations, we would be able to generate more than 50 percent of the requirement from Delhi itself,&rdquo; he said.</p>\r\n         \r\n            <p>He informed that the government has already installed more than 50 PSA plants which are capable to generate around 250-300 tons of oxygen required in hospitals daily.</p>\r\n           \r\n            <p>&ldquo;The government has already made an arrangement of 37000 beds with oxygen supply attached to it dedicated to handle only COVID cases if it arises.

This time we have also made arrangements to have intensive care units (ICU) in the hospital itself where the beds are arranged,&rdquo; he said. He further explained that the Delhi government has already taken steps to add around 7000 more beds which would happen over a period of six months.</p>\r\n          \r\n            <p>The Minister said that Delhi government has changed the benchmark for handling COVID cases in Delhi. &ldquo;Unlike the national average of 5 percent COVID cases which is considered safe while testing, we have kept the limit at 0.5 percent.
