Most of the cases, the determinants of agricultural development are crops, purchase and installation of irrigation equipment, livestock, marketing of agricultural goods fisheries, poverty alleviation and income generating activities. Banks also disburse loan on each of these sectors. So banks plays an important role on agricultural development in Bangladesh. Timely and adequate flow of agricultural credit can meet farmers demand to enhance agricultural productivity. The aim of this paper is to determine the contribution of banks on agricultural development in Bangladesh. This study collected time series data from various sources and analyze the contribution of agricultural credit of banks in Bangladesh.

\section[{Introduction}]{Introduction}\par
angladesh gained independence in 1971. Since it's independence agriculture has been the core sector of Bangladesh economy. According to the 1981 census, 83 percent of the labour force are employed in rural areas; 61 percent in agricultural activities. Bangladesh is an agrarian country where agricultural sector plays vital role in accelerating the economic growth by providing inputs to agro-based industries, creating employment, attracting foreign direct investment.\par
Many factors such as soil, climate, seed quality, fertilizer, irrigation, household, characteristics, rural infrastructure, labour efficiency, managerial capability, use of modern technologies etc influence the productivity of agriculture. In that case timely and adequate flow of agricultural credit can meet farmers demand to ensure agricultural productivity. It can increase quality and quantity of input used in the production process.\par
Bangladesh is a developing country where the banking system plays a vital role in the progress of its economic development. As mentioned earlier that Bangladesh is an agrarian country, the economic growth will be slowed down if the finance is not provided to the agricultural sector. Keeping this in mind, for the development of agricultural sector the Government of Bangladesh has established two specialized banks namely; Bangladesh Krishi Bank (BKB) and Rajshahi Krishi Unnayan Bank (RAKUB). These banks are continuously working for the development of agricultural sector; Firstly , they are trying to promote saving among middle and lower middle class of urban and rural areas. Secondly, these banks increase investment in different sectors of agriculture, industry, trade. These banks also provide micro-credit which will help the disadvantaged people to become self sufficient.\par
Day by day both public, private and foreign commercial banks are incorporated under agricultural credit program. Specialized and commercial government bank as well as NGO\& MFIs have their decentralized branch network system in remote areas throughout the country. These formal sectors provide agricultural credit to the poor farmers in the rural areas (small, marginal and landless farmers) so that farmers can purchase agricultural input timely which help to stimulate food production and improve the livelihoods of poor farmers.\par
Agricultural credit plays an inevitable role in agricultural productivity. The contribution of agriculture sector to the GDP in FY 2019-20 is 13.35 percent (Bangladesh Economic Review 2020). According to the Labour Force Survey 2016-17, 40.62 percent of the total labour force of the country is engaged in agriculture. It also makes a significant contribution to the growth of the service sector. In addition, we cannot deny the role of agriculture in ensuring food security for a growing population from the declining arable land as well as the impact of climate change.

\section[{Review of Literature}]{Review of Literature}\par
Akther, M., Younus, D.S., Parveen, F. and Chowdhury, M.M.I.(2016) in their study try to examine whether rural financing played any role in reducing rural poverty and thus increased sustainable economic development in Bangladesh. They tried to identify the determinants of rural poverty in Bangladesh using priority sector lending such as agricultural sector credit, rural employment, female employment, agricultural production and credit to gross domestic product and per capita income as independent variables. The empirical estimation for the sample period from 1984 to 2014 suggests that all the explanatory variables in the model are significant and are found to be negatively related to rural poverty. The elasticity of the rural poverty with respect to priority sector lending is -0.27 implying that a one percent increase in priority sector lending will reduce rural poverty by 0.27 percent on average. Alauddin,  {\ref Md. and Biswas, Joytirmay (2014)} in their study recognize that a timely flow of agricultural credit can meet farmers demand to ensure agricultural productivity. Their study reveals that formal sector has flourished in recent years in disbursing agricultural credit where previously informal sector dominated the rural credit market for agriculture. Many local private commercial banks and foreign banks are using the channels of NGOs to provide agricultural credit as NGOs have a stronger network throughout the country.\par
Islam, M.A., Islam, M.R. Sddiqui, M.H. and Karim, L. (2014) in their study found that farmers have lack of savings and scarcity of resources. So agricultural credit is a solution for the farmers to start their agrofarms and business. Availability of credit on time is important requirement for the rural people, particularly under conditions of scarcity of resources and uncertainty.\par
Chowdhury D.T.A and Chowdhury, M.S.S. (2011) in their study analyzed the development of different services and facilities are provided by the specialized agricultural banks in Bangladesh for the overall improvement of agricultural sector. Their study reveals that both agricultural banks are able to achieve a steady growth in terms of employees, branches, deposits, loans and advances.\par
Patwary, M.S.H. (2017) in a study found that agricultural credit plays an inevitable role in agricultural productivity, since it has increased the quantity and quality of inputs used in production process.\par
Challenges faced by the farmers in getting agricultural credit:\par
Long institutional procedure: The main problems faced by the farmers in getting agricultural credit are the long institutional procedure. It takes too time and formalities to process agricultural credit. As most of the small and marginal farmers have lack of knowledge about this formal procedure they always feel fear about formalities, documentation of financial institutions. A research work conducted by Ruhul Amin Sarkar (2006) revealed that 90 percent of all size farmers think that long institutional procedure is the major impediment in getting loans from institutional source. This lengthy procedure hampers the productivity of farmers. As farmers incapable to purchase agricultural inputs on time due to lack of cash. 
\section[{Urban bias of banking operation:}]{Urban bias of banking operation:}\par
In Bangladesh financial institutions are mostly urban biased. In many rural areas have a few or even no financial institutions. People in such areas have to cross long distance to reach financial institution and after fulfilling the requirement of financial institutions they get agricultural credit. For this reason farmers in rural areas are discouraged to get loan. So balanced sector wise development of financial institutions are needed. 
\section[{Lack of Collateral:}]{Lack of Collateral:}\par
Formal sector wants collateral as security of the credit that they disburse to the farmers.\par
Formal sector also takes socio-economic status of a credit seeker into consideration when it decides to disburse agricultural credit. These make cheap formal credit accessibility more difficult for the marginal and sub-marginal and small farmers. This forces them to take loan from semi-formal institutional and noninstitutional source.\par
Higher non-interest cost of institutional credit: Alam (1981) identified four types of non-interest cost of institutional loan such as; (a) application fees, stamp, and documents required in support of loan; (b) from filling and writing, (c) Cost of traveling for loan negotiation; (d) Cost of entertaining people who assisted in loan negotiations. He observed that noninterest cost of borrowing falls as loan size increases. Higher non-interest cost of institutional credit for the small farmers acts as a hindrance to the development of productive force.\par
Difficult credit rules: Most of the illiterate and partially educated farmers cannot understand difficult credit rules of banking institutions. For this reason, they try to collect loan from informal sector where there is simple rule for loan. It is also found that agricultural loan are often used for political motives. Farmers need political power to get loan. Weekly basis installment system: Most of the cases farmers who take loan from formal sources have to repay installment on weekly basis. As agricultural production takes time and income is received only after harvesting. So farmers who have no other sources of income, paying installment weekly becomes difficult for them. 
\section[{Discrimination in disbursing loan between male and female:}]{Discrimination in disbursing loan between male and female:}\par
There is discrimination in the allocation of loan between male and female. Per head disbursement of agricultural credit to male beneficiary is much higher than female beneficiary. 
\section[{III.}]{III.} 
\section[{Impact of Caovid-19 on Agricultural Sector}]{Impact of Caovid-19 on Agricultural Sector}\par
Covid-19 has an impact across all economic sector including the agricultural sector. Because of lockdown cost of production increases. During lockdown labour cannot move from place to place. As a result there arises labour shortage in agricultural sector. The shortage of labour increases labour wages. As agricultural production is labour intensive, so the rise in labour wages increase the cost of agricultural production. Farmers also face higher cost of transportation during lockdown. So it is easily understand that the cost of all agricultural inputs increases because of lockdown. The Covid-19 crisis will also reduce food demand as a result of declining incomes and lower frequency of visiting markets to maintain social distance. The negative impact is already visible -the daily star reports that despite bumper production of fruits, growers are incurring losses as the price has fallen drastically in the local markets of the districts due to the outbreak. Lockdown strategies entail a number of protective measures to reduce the Covid-19 infection. This includes border closures, travel restrictions, restaurant closures, and trade disruptions etc. There is a deep cut in the price of products because of low demand. As cost of production is high but price of the product is low, so farmers incur loss. A study conducted by BIGD in June 2020 shown that because of the pandemic, Boro farmers lost seven percent of their estimated yield in 2020 which nationally amount to 4.82 crore mounds, equivalent to BDT 3,687 crore. Because of the labour shortage, labour wage went up by 17 percent. The cost of other inputs also increased because of disrupted transportation. As a result Boro farmers faced a 40 percent loss in expected profit.\par
So due to outbreak of the Novel Corona Virus, it is necessary to provide agricultural loan at low interest rate for continuing food production and food supply at normal level. With this view banks are instructed through the ACD circular -02 dated; 27 April 2020 to provide agricultural loan at 4 percent concessional rate (maximum) for cultivating grain crops, cash crops, vegetables and tuber crops as mentioned in agricultural and rural credit policy program. Against the disbursement of these loans, banks will be reimbursed at 5.0 percent as interest loss from Bangladesh Bank. These facilities will be continued up to 30 June 2021 effective from 1 April 2020.\par

\section[{Methodology of This Study}]{Methodology of This Study}\par
This study has been done mainly based on secondary data. The relevant data and informations were collected from annual reports of Bangladesh bank and websites of various bank on Bangladesh, Bangladesh Economic Review (BER) and Bangladesh Bureau of statistics ( BBS) publication of various years. In this study we analyze data for the period 2001 to 2020. The data analysis includes the view point of lenders, agricultural sub-sector, overall agricultural credit performance etc. MS excel software was used for analyzing and presenting data in a meaningful way.\par

\section[{Analysis and Finding}]{Analysis and Finding}\par
Disbursement of agricultural credit by banks follows an upward tend. In 2001, disbursement of agricultural credit was Tk 30.20 billion. In 2020 it has reached at Tk 227.5 billion. The increase in agricultural credit disbursement has positive impact. It has increased the quality and quantity of input used in the production process of agriculture. Today's agriculture uses sophisticated technologies such as reapers, tractors, axial flow pumps, seeds drills etc. That requires more capital. So the increase in agricultural credit disbursement can help the farmers by providing capital. As a result farmers can use improved technology in the production process that yield bumper production. The recovery of agricultural credit in 2001 was Tk 28.78 billion. It has reached Tk 212.5 billion in 2020. This shows that banks perform well in the recovery of the agricultural loan. Overdue literally means "past the due date".\par
Bills that aren't paid on time are overdue. Overdue as percent of outstanding is Tk 60.69 billion but it has reached Tk 13.3 billion in 2020. This is because initially agricultural credit disbursed through government banks. But the performance was very poor because of inefficiency and corruption of the employees and bureaucratic problem and political interferences in government institutions. At present this situation is improving day by day after the establishment of good governance in government banks. Besides that participation of private commercial and foreign commercial banks also help to improve credit disbursement.

From the above table-3 we see that crops share of agricultural credit was 45.10\% in 2001. It has reached 50\% in 2020. Similarly livestock, fisheries, poverty alleviation and others share of agricultural credit follows an upward trend. Definitely it has positive impact on the productivity of agriculture.\par
The agricultural sector can be broken down into five main components: crops, livestock, fisheries, poverty alleviation and others. Bangladesh poses development in each of these subcategories. According to the combine estimate of BBS, Ministry of Agriculture and Department of Agriculture Extension (DAE). In FY 2019-20 total food grains production target is 454.04 lakh MT. If the growth of fish production continues, the fish production in the country is expected to be 45-52 lakh MT (Department of Fisheries, Ministry of Fisheries and Livestock).\par
In the same manner livestock, poverty, alleviation and others contribution to the agriculture and to the economy increases day by day. Women participation in agricultural credit is increasing day by day. It helps women to become selfsufficient. Nowadays women engage in Agro-farming instead of being unemployed which help them to contribute for the family and the nation. From the above table we see that in 2017 percentage of female beneficiary was 47.89. That means out of every 100 beneficiaries of agricultural credit 48 are female. But \% of amount of agricultural credit disburse to female beneficiary out of total agricultural credit had reached 29.71 in 2017. That indicates out of every 100 taka disbursement women got only 29.71 taka. The situation also reveal that women also face discrimination in per head credit disbursement. Proper credit disbursement between male and female can reduce this discrimination.

Target of Agricultural Credit Disbursement in FY20 
\section[{Source: ACD, BB}]{Source: ACD, BB}\par
In FY 20, 55 percent of the total agricultural credit targeted to disburse to the crop sub-sector followed by live-stock and poultry (10\%), other agricultural activities(11\%), fisheries (10\%), poverty alleviation (7\%), purchase and installation of irrigation equipment(5\%), marketing of agricultural goods (2\%).

\section[{B}]{B}\par
In FY20, 50 percent of the total agricultural credit distributed to the crops sub-sectors followed by live-stock and poultry (14), other agricultural activities (14\%), Fisheries (11\%) poverty alleviation (9\%), purchase and installation of irrigation equipment (1\%), marketing of agricultural goods (1\%).\par
From this analysis, we find that agricultural credit distributed to the sub categories has increased and it has crossed the targeted disbursement.

\section[{Conclusion}]{Conclusion}\par
As a developing country, Bangladesh has to rely on agricultural sector in every respect of economic activities. There is a huge importance of the agricultural sector in order to generate employment and fulfilling the increasing food demand for a rapidly growing population. From the analysis, it is reflected that agricultural credit can be played a significant role in promoting the development of the agricultural sector.\par
The comprehensive policy initiatives of Bangladesh Bank have fostered the agricultural credit access for the poor farmers. Now a days, the integrated efforts of commercial banks including NGO-MFIs also help to expand the access to agricultural credit. Agricultural credit to poor farmers help to increase agricultural production and their household income. The proper policy support for credit program plays a vital role in credit financing to the agricultural households. It will help to ensure sustainable agricultural production growth.\par
So to increase the access to agricultural credit banks should reduce the formal procedure. Minimum formalities with flexibilities can encourage farmers to find loan from formal sector. Banks can arrange seminar to discuss about the formalities of the loan so that farmers can easily understand how to do formalities to get loan As farmers have lack of resources so in that case collateral acts as a hindrance to get agricultural credit. So formal sector should disburse agricultural credit with less amount of collateral which farmers can bear easily. Political interference in the agricultural sector must be removed.\par
Financial institutions and financial services should spread at the remote and rural areas. It will help easy access to financial services for the people of such areas.\begin{figure}[htbp]
