Agricultural extension centres for three places


Work on construction of Integrated Agriculture Extension Centres has been taken up at three centres in the district, each at an estimate of about Rs.1.50 crore contributed by the Rural Infrastructure Development Programme of the National Bank for Agricultural and Rural Development and National Agriculture Development Programme.
The centres will have an integrated approach for distribution of seeds, agricultural implements and fertilizer to farmers.
These agricultural implements were distributed by various departments at their offices or godowns located at different places in the taluk but the integrated complex would facilitate smooth and expeditious stocking and distribution.
Hence, officials of Agriculture, Horticulture, Agricultural Marketing and Agri Business would be available at this campus.
