The SWOT analysis of the agricultural situation of the state (Source: . http://rkvy.nic.in/Evaluation_of_SAPs/Evaluation_SAP_Maharashtra.PDF) is as follows –. The District Agriculture Officer works as the Secretary of the Zilla Parishad Agriculture Committee. Animal husbandry for milk and milk products, leather and meat is an important occupation for most of the people living in the state.
Because livestock farming is on the state list, the responsibility for the care of livestock lies with the state. The Ministry of Animal Husbandry, Government of Maharashtra, is basically responsible for formulating and implementing the state's livestock policy. To provide profitable self-employment to the weaker sections of society in the livestock sector.
To update human resources of the department through various trainings and keep them highly motivated. State Agriculture Portal (SAP) is the interface of the state government to provide information services in the agriculture sector.

- Expected Outcomes
- Grievance Redressal Management Process Workflow
- Expert Advisory Workflow
Based on the above objective, the proposed solution for GRMS and EAS can be predicted suitable for A-MMP. GRMS and EAS will be part of A-MMPs and will interact with all 12 services of A-MMPs, so that a common integrated platform integrated with Open Architecture will be adopted for GRMS, regardless from any cross-platform issues between utility software modules. . GRMS complaints and EAS queries are being taken up from the grassroots level ie.
Facility should be provided for submitting the grievance in GRMS and queries for EAS through various channels web interface / SMS / IVRS system. The GRMS and EAS system will be automated as much as possible with less human intervention except for filing and updating grievances. Provision in GRMS and EAS will be added for broadcasting any specific / urgent information for farmers / Stakeholders / Govt.
Integrating GRMS and EAS with news channels / mass media to disseminate advisory system information as required. If the inquiry is not relevant to the SME, it can be forwarded to the relevant SME.
