What we do
As per our mandate we have started training to the farmers and farmwomen and vocational trainings to the rural youths. Latest agricultural technologies were demonstrated at the farmer’s field through front line demonstrations. Stress has been given to promote integrated crop management in pulses and oilseeds considering their importance in present agriculture.
The KVK is having a well-equipped agricultural farm of 12.0 ha which is covered by the latest variety/technology of various crops for the demonstration to the farmers.
Vocational training of poultry farming started by the organization has got good popularity among the farmers.
A model demonstration unit of cows has been established to suit the small and marginal farmers by the organization.
The availability of pure and good quality seed on appropriate time is always a major constraint to the farmers.
