ABSTRACT
Agriculture advances is an important prerequisite for agricultural growth. Agricultural
policies have been reviewed for time to time to provide adequate and timely availability of
finance to this sector. Rural credit system assumes importance because for most of the Indian
rural families, savings are inadequate to finance farming and other economic activities. The
coupled with the lack of simultaneity between income realization and expenditure and lumpiness
of agricultural capital investments. The institutional credit system is critical for agricultural
development and its role has further increased in the liberalized economic environment.

In India a multi-agency approach comprising co-operative banks, scheduled commercial


banks and regional rural banks has been followed to allow credit to agricultural sectors. In the
present competitive world securing huge funds for a business is a complicated matter. Any
money accepted as a deposits must be for the purpose of lending or investment. Making
advances and investment of funds are equally important. The function of cooperative bank is to
cater to the needs of the rural areas and small and are concerned more with the financing of
agriculturist. The study focus on cooperative agricultural advances it is a detailed study on it
system and management is essential and this is conducted on cooperative bank limited. It helps
to improve its credit recovery and also measures to be adopted in case of risk involved. Hence
this study is undertaken. There are 3 types of agricultural advances which is provided by the
banks namely, short term advances which deals with short span of time that is 15 months which
is given for purchasing of fertilizers and to meet working capital expense. Secondly medium
term advances which is for a period of up to 5 years given for the purpose of buying cattle or
agricultural equipment. Thirdly, long term advances which is for a period of more than 5 years
and it is given for the purpose of purchase of land, tractor etc. The sources of agricultural
advances are institutional sources like rural cooperative banks, state cooperative banks and non-
institutional sources like money lenders.

CHAPTER-01

Introduction to accounting-

Introduction-

Accounting is a language of business. It is the system of recording, summarizing and


analyzing an economic entity‟s financial transactions. Effectively communicating this
information is key to the success of every business. Those who rely on financial information
include internal users, such as a company‟s managers and employees, and external users, such as
bank, investors, governmental agencies, financial analyst, and labor unions. These users depend
upon data supplied by accountants.

Accountants must present an organization‟s financial information in clear, concise reports


that help make questions like these easy to answer. The most common accounting reports are
called financial statements.

All business organizations work in an ever-changing dynamic environment. Any new


programmed of the organization or of its competitor will affect the business. Accounting serves
as an effective tool for measuring the financial pulse rate of the company. It is a continues cycle
of measurement of results and reporting of results to decision makers.

Development of accounting discipline-

The history of accounting can be traced back to ancient times. According to some belief, the
very art of writing originated in order to record accounting information. Though this may seems
to be an exaggeration, but there is no denying the fact that accounting has a long history.
Accounting records can be traced back to the ancient civilization of china, Babylonia, Egypt etc.
Accounting was used to keep records regarding the cost of labor and materials used in building
great structure pyramid.

The government also has had lot to do with more accounting development. The income tax
brought about the concept of „income‟ government takes a host of other decisions, relating to

REVA UNIVERSITY, SCHOOL OF COMMERCE Page 1


A STUDY ON COOPERATIVE AGRICULTURAL ADVANCES

education, health, economic planning- for which it needs accurate and reliable information. As
such, the government demands stringent accountability in the corporate sector, which forces the
accounting process to be an objective and formal as possible.

Basically there are 3 broad classifications of accounting and they are as follows,

I. Financial accounting-
Financial accounting involves recording and classifying business transactions, and
preparing and presenting financial statements to be used by internal and external users.
In the preparation of financial statements, strict compliance with generally accepted
accounting principles (GAAP) is observed. Financial accounting is primarily concerned
in processing historical data.
Financial accounting is based on certain concepts and conventions, which include
separate business entity, going concern concept, accounting period concept, matching
concept, realisation concept, and conventions of conservatism, disclosure, consistency
etc.
II. Management accounting-
Managerial or management accounting focuses on providing information for use by
internal users, the management. This branch deals with the needs of the management
rather than strict compliance with generally accepted accounting principles.
Managerial accounting involves financial analysis, budgeting and forecasting, cost
analysis, evaluation of business decisions, and similar areas.
III. Cost accounting-
Sometimes considered as a subset of management accounting, cost accounting refers to
the recording, presentation, and analysis of manufacturing costs. Cost accounting is very
useful in manufacturing businesses since they have the most complicated costing process.
The basic purpose of cost accounting is to provide a detailed break up of cost of
different departments, processes, jobs, products, sales territories, etc. So that effective
cost control can be exercised.

Agricultural cooperative is a kind of farming operation where agricultural practices were
conducted by the individuals on their own holdings jointly with certain common agencies formed

equipments etc…. And also for the sale of agricultural produce.
In respect of cooperative agriculture individual retain their ownership of respective plots of
land and distribute the income of the farm among the members on the basis of size and value of
the plot along with their other contributions.
Such type of farming is again different from the cooperative collective farming followed in
socialist countries where ownership land disappears completely after the formation of
cooperatives.

1. Joining of farmers in this system voluntarily.
2. Farmers retain their right to land.
3. -Farmers pool their land, livestock, and other implements.

4. The entire farm is managed- as a single unit and the management is elected by the
members.

2. Farm operating advances-

Operating loans assist farmers in day-to-day needs or expansion requirements; they


come in both direct and indirect options. An indirect loan is provided by the FSA. This
makes the loan more affordable. A guaranteed, indirect loan may be issued in an amount as a
large as 12 lakhs, with a guaranteed up to 95 percent. Direct loans may also be issued to
credit worthy individuals who do not qualify for private loans due to other circumstances.

3. farm ownership advances-

5. Farm labour housing advances-

The program provides loans and grants through the US department of housing and
rural developments rural housing initiative. The program provides capital to build or replace
housing structure for rural farm workers. The program is meant to make the housing facility
more livable, and it may include the replacement or repair of furnishing inside the housing
structure. Further, this loan or grant can extend to a wide range of farming projects including
rare projects like oyster farming or fisheries.

Problems that are faced by banks in recovery of advances-

The following are some of the problems that are faced by the banks in recovering their
advances, so they are as follows-

a. Due to continues and constant natural calamities the rate of recovery has became poor for
the banks.
b. Lack of infrastructure in societies such as building, technical infrastructure, funds, staff,
computer facilities.
c. Lack of staff members in the society it has been observed that some societies are facing
the problems of lack of staff members.
d. Societies are not able to go to the field in sanctioning the loans in or to check the proper
utilisation of loans and advances.
e. Interference of political persons, local leader and higher officers in government while
giving loans and advances to farmers and also in recovery of loans and advances.
f. The deposited mobilisation by the PAC‟s show that the deposits of selected PAC‟s are
very low and insignificant. Therefore most of the PAC‟s at present they dependent on
funds provided by the DCC in the district.
g. Due to lack of capital.
h. Due to low level of recovery of loans and advances.
i. Lack of credit facilities to a large segment of rural population, particularly the poor.
Those need to be addressed. The formal banking system in the country services, 25.9% of
rural households while 14% farmers households depends on money lenders for their
REVA UNIVERSITY, SCHOOL OF COMMERCE Page 14
A STUDY ON COOPERATIVE AGRICULTURAL ADVANCES

credit needs. Further 51.4% of the total farmer‟s households do not have any access to
credit facilities.

Suggestions for banks to reduce the problems of recovery of loans and


advances-

The following are the suggestions that are given for the farmers to reduce their problems
of recovering loans and advances from the farmers they are as follows-

i. Trained staff members are in the banks, knowledge of the official dealings in credit needs
a regular updating through training,
ii. Appropriate simplification in documentation is needed. All supporting documents for
loan application may also be made available in local or vernacular language, particularly
to agricultural and small business borrowers.
iii. To cooperative banks must simplify their loaning procedure.
iv. Active supervision and better follow up of loans and advances after disbursement of
loans and advances are required to maintain asset quality at the branches.
v. The cooperative laws of the state most facilitate the cooperative to functions as member‟s
drives organisation. Present in any banks non-servicing members become the
managements.

Problems that are facing by the farmers

Farmers problems focus attentions on the inherent weakness of the financial institutions. It
is true that adequate and timely supply of credit is the one of the essential condition for
improving agricultural practices and prompt repayment of loans and advances.

The primary need of the farmers is timely supply of credit in agriculture. Needless to
emphasis the importance of credit in agriculture. It is sine quonam with agriculture. Various
ways and means have been identified to provide credit to farming communities. Cooperative
banks are important sources of agricultural credit to the farmers. These banks willingly or
unwillingly come forward to finance agriculture. These institutions charge lower rate of interest

REVA UNIVERSITY, SCHOOL OF COMMERCE Page 15


A STUDY ON COOPERATIVE AGRICULTURAL ADVANCES

compare to commercial banks. Cooperatives societies are basically commercially oriented and
profit making institutions.

There are some of the problems that are facing by the farmers for paying the loan amount,
they are-

a) Climate of uncertainly is greatest in agriculture as compare to other sectors because even


today a considerably high proportion of Indian agriculture is dependent on the vagaries of
the monsoon.
b) An interference of the middle man in getting the loans and advances. It is higher in
commercial banks compared to cooperative banks.
c) Farmers have to face a number of problems, one them being great difficulty in getting
credit because of peculiar nature of agricultural credit.
d) A continues and constant natural calamities, the agricultural production is very low. So, -
repayment capacity of the farmers is very less. Then increase in debt and default occur.
e) Some banks are giving the preference to big farmers so, small and marginal farmers are
not able to get the high amount, because land size is small, and repayment capacity is
less.
f) Banks gives the credit amount which is very low, as compared to commercial banks. -
Cooperative banks give credit amount, 5000 per area it is increased every year only 10%.
So, the available of credit is not up to satisfaction of farmers.
g) Transaction cost of credit is very high.
h) Farmers are facing the main problem that is market fluctuations.

Problems of farmers focus on attention on the inherent weakness of the adequate and
timely supply of credit is one of the essential conditions for improving agricultural practices. The
lending institutions should process credit applicant on in such a way that the purpose of the
borrowers in fully fulfilled in time. Procedural delay hampers the planning of the cultivation.

Suggestions from the farmers for banks regarding to loans and advances-

 Banks or societies should fix a price for agricultural products and purchase it.
 -Loans and advances should be increased for agricultural produces.
 Effective supervision should be there over the utilisation of loan amount
 Banks should have a practice of issuing crop loan in cash and in kinds such as fertilizers
and seeds.
 Income enhancing programmes should be implemented in the villages.
 Banks or societies must have good contacts with the farmers especially with small and
the marginal farmers.
 To reduce transaction cost

Research gap-

Review of Literature-

A review of literature is an evaluative report of information found in the literature related to


project selected area of study. The review should describe, summaries, evaluate and clarify the
literature. It should give a theoretical base for the research and help to determine the nature of
the research.

A literature review is more than the research for information, and goes beyond being a
descriptive annotated bibliography. All works included in the review must be read, evaluated and
analyzed.

Review of literature on cooperative agricultural advances-

DEO (1976)

In his study on problems of agricultural credit allocation, emphasized that the problem of
credit allocation in agriculture was immense and required adequate attention. He has suggested
that the financial experts, social scientists and team of bank personnel have to work together and
have to make micro level planning for expansion of credit.

Regarding the amount of loan advanced to the farmers of different size groups, it was observed
that a major share of total advance went to large farmers. This study further shows that the large

size farmers utilized their borrowed money o greater extent for productive purpose as compared
to small farmers.

Reference- Singh G.N, „Distribution and utilization of cooperative advances‟, India cooperative
review 1976, 13(4) pp 397-411.

PANDEY (1977)

In his study found that loans were issued mostly without keeping in the mind repayment
capacity of the borrowers and were not properly supervised by the co-operative supervisors‟
resulting in the diversion of the loans for unproductive purpose and accumulation of over dues.

Reference- Pandey U.K, „Socio economic factor affecting the overdue of advances‟, Indian
cooperative review 1977, 14(1), pp 141-150.

BHATIA (1978)

In his study titled, “Banking structure and performance – A case study of in Indian
Banking system” attempted to analyze the economic performance of Indian banking system as
reflected by its output, price and profitability during the period 1950-68. He found that profit of
the Indian banking system during the said period had an upward trend. The study suggested
deregulation of interest rates to enhance the profitability of financial institutions and to ensure a
competitive banking environment which would ultimately result in better services.

Reference- Bhatia, R.C, Banking structure and performance 1978, 14(2), pp 414-152.

Report of All India Debt and Investment Survey (1981)

Revealed that non- institutional agencies accounted for 36.8 percent of the total credit
agriculture. Mo-neylenders, traders, landlords and other sources including relatives and friends
provided 16.9 percent, 3.4 percent, 4.0 percent and 14.5 percent of the total agricultural Credit

respectively. The institutional agencies provided 61.2 percent of the total credit needs of
agriculture. Co-operatives are the leaders, providing 28.6 percent of total credit to agriculture.
The share of Government in providing loans was only 4.6 percent.

Reference- RBI: All India Debt and Investment survey, 1981-82, Bombay, 1986.

SWIDHA and CHAND (1981)-

Analyzing the pattern of credit distribution and over dues, have found that there was
inverse relationship between the over dues and credit advanced to different farm categories. They
have further found that most of the small farmers were non-willful defaulters whereas most of
the medium and large farmers were willful defaulters. They have suggested that in order to
reduce the overdue of small farmers, their income should be increased through additional
investment by way of adoption of improved method of cultivation while the overdue of large
farm could be reduced by taking traction against them.

of overdoes‟, Financing in Agriculture, 1981, 13(2) pp 18-20.

LAL and LAVANIA (1986)

Have found that 78.18 percent of the total co-operative credit was utilized for productive and the
rest 21.82 percent for unproductive purposes. The credit utilization on unproductive purpose
decreased with the increase in farm size which indicated that large cultivators utilized the highest
percentage of credit for productive purposes.

VENKATESWARA et al (1987)

Had analyzed the over dues pattern in a progressive block of west Godavari district of
Andhra Pradesh. Their study revealed that over dues per holding increased with increase in farm
size while per hectare over dues decreased with increase in farm sizes.

In their study on the supply and utilization of short-term co-operative Agricultural finance
in palghat district in Kerala reported that 52 percent of the loan amount was advanced in kind
(mainly fertilizer) and the balance in cash. An inverse relationship was found between the
amount of loan per hectare, on one hand and size of holding on the other; the smaller holdings
obtained relatively more amount of credit than larger holdings.

A STUDY ON COOPERATIVE AGRICULTURAL ADVANCES

-Main Findings of the literature reviewed-

 Agricultural advances play an important role in development of economy so, it has to


increase the employment opportunities by offering the advances to the farmers at the
low rate of interest.
 Private money lenders are still taking part in supplying of money to the small farmers
at high rate of interests
 Advances should be given to the farmers under the Kisan credit card schemes.
 Due to the money lenders influence and due to non institutional influence the rural
banks which provide agricultural advances to the farmer are dominated
 Formal financial institutions lack the capacity to finance agriculture and rural
development.
 There are certain problems which are facing by the banks at the end of delivering the
advances to the farmers like corruption among bank officials. Delay in distribution of
advances also contributes to that which makes the environment unfavourable.
 The political interference is also responsible for negatively impacting the working of
banks.
 It has also been concluded in the literature reviewed that resourceful farmer receives
the advances more easily than the small farmers for their requirements.
 The procedure of providing advances to the farmers should be in a simple manner, it
should not be a complicated one so that the farmers who are in need of it can procure
the advances easily.

although- various studies have been carried out to study the multi-dimensional aspects of
institutional financing of agriculture, But not many attempts have been made to study bank
financing of agriculture particularly in the state of Karnataka moreover, the problems faced by
the farmers of the state in getting the finance and the problems faced by the banks in the state of
Karnataka in delivery system have also not been yet highlighted by any study. Hence, the present
study titled „cooperative agricultural advances in Karnataka‟ has been undertaken.
