Explanation:

1. Statement 1 is incorrect. In terms of short-term credit delivery to the agriculture sector, Scheduled Commercial Banks and Regional Rural Banks play a more significant role compared to District Central Cooperative Banks (DCCBs). Scheduled Commercial Banks and Regional Rural Banks have a wider reach and larger lending capacity compared to DCCBs.

2. Statement 2 is correct. One of the important functions of DCCBs is to provide funds to the Primary Agricultural Credit Societies (PACS). DCCBs act as a link between the State Cooperative Banks and PACS, channeling credit and other financial services to the grassroots level.
