Informatics Network - AGRISNET: A NICNET based Agricultural Informatics & Communication - during the Tenth Plan. During the Ninth Plan, this proposal did not materialize due to bureaucratic entangle. This ICT Network envisages to facilitate an integrated approach of 'Internet Technology" and "Sustainable Agricultural, Rural and Backward Area Development" with its farm and non-farm linkages. During the Ninth Plan, the AGRISNET was suggested to have nodes upto "block level", as "block" is the planning unit for agricultural development. However, in the Tenth Plan, the AGRISNET has been envisaged to have Server Access nodes at 35 State Agricultural and Cooperative Departments, and 600 District Agricultural and Cooperative Offices. To usher in "agricultural Governance" in the country, it is essential to make the AGRISNET as the "rural infrastructure" reaching upto 6.5 lakhs villages. 11.5 This Initiative is based on the recommendations of ISDA- 95 Conference (Informatics for Sustainable Agricultural Development), which includes, among the others, the following Informatics Networks: - 54
