There are 103 bank branches (CBs - 75 branches, Coop. Bank - 4 branches and RRB - 18 branches and Private Banks 6 branches) of various banks catering to the needs of the people in the district. The Potential Linked Credit Plan (PLP) of Kamrup district (Rural) envisages projections of ` lakh under various sectors during the year The credit flow to the agriculture and allied sector is projected to be ` lakh. Priority sectors have been classified taking into account the classifications in the revised Priority Sector Lending guidelines. Major Sectorwise analysis is given below: Credit Potential for Agriculture A potential of ` lakh has been envisaged under Agriculture sector, which has been grouped in three sub-sectors namely Farm Credit activities (` lakh), Agriculture Infrastructure activities (` lakh) and Ancillary activities (` lakh). Subsistence farming is prevalent in most parts of the district. To improve the standard of living mono-cropped areas need to be converted to multiple cropping. A potential of ` lakh is identified for crop loans under this sector during the year The crop loan should be disbursed through Kisan Credit Cards (KCCs)s so that the farmers may get adequate amount of loan at the time of need. Awareness programme regarding KCC should be taken up by the Agriculture Extension Office at Block and Village Level Extension Workers (VLWs) as well as Banks. Banks/Departments should take active role in promoting Self Help Groups (SHGs) and Farmers Clubs (FCs) to inculcate repayment ethics and adoption of new technology and improved farm practices. Production and supply of bio-fertilizers and Integrated Pest Management practices need to be encouraged in the district for sustainable development. Water Resources A potential of ` lakh is identified under this sector for the year The bank branches may play more proactive role for financing for Water Resources. 1
