First, for the country as a whole, the increase in the farm credit to
Agricultural GSDP ratio had been niggardly until the end of the 1999s and
after 2002-03 or thereabout there began a rapid increase in the ratio, which got
accelerated after 2004-05. The ratio edged up from 7.6% in 1995-96 to 11.8%
in 2001-02; in the next phase it increased to 13.3% in 2002-03 and galloped
thereafter to 18.4% in 2004-05 and to 33.8% in 2010-11. This has indeed been
a phenomenal expansion during the past decade or so at the all-India level.
