Khet Bachao Abhiyan: Strengthening Agricultural Productivity through Training and Resource Distribution

    As part of the ongoing Khet Bachao Abhiyan and STC Component, a training program was conducted at Karmali to promote sustainable agricultural practices among local farmers. The session featured technical expertise from Dr. Paramesha V., Senior Scientist (Agronomy), and Dr. Shripad Bhat, Senior Scientist (Agricultural Economics), who provided critical insights into improved cultivation techniques and economic management for crops. The event, which drew active engagement from a group of 23 participants—comprising 18 female and five male farmers—concluded with the distribution of essential farming inputs, including drums for agricultural utility and arecanut seedlings, aimed at strengthening the livelihoods and production capacities of the local farming community.
