Live workshop of leading agricultural scientists of the country, solutions are available on-the-spot
To deal with the practical problems faced in farming, such as crop diseases, less fertile land and changing weather patterns, a special ‘Live Workshop and Kisan Pathshala’ (Farmers Workshop) is being organized in the main pandal of the fair. Senior scientists and experts from renowned agricultural universities of the country are answering the questions of the farmers directly from the platform and teaching them new tricks of organic farming and horticulture. Farmers who are bringing samples of their crops or soil are also being given the facility of on-the-spot testing and proper advice, which the farmer brothers are saying is very helpful and beneficial.
Local to Global: Opening doors to international and national markets for farmers
At present, the biggest challenge facing farmers is to get the right and reasonable price for their crops. To root out this problem, representatives of many big food processing companies, export agencies and e-commerce platforms from India and abroad have also participated in the fair. Under the ‘Local to Global’ mission through the fair, MoUs and agreements are being signed directly to deliver local products of Jharkhand like Madua, Makhana, organic vegetables and medicinal plants to big national and global markets. This will completely eliminate the role of middlemen and will directly help in doubling the income of farmers.
