The Indian Council of Agricultural Research has established a wide network of Krishi Vigyan Kendras (KVKs) in the country

From Sr. Scientist & Head's Desk

The economy of Ganjam district is mainly agrarian. Our vision for agriculture and allied sector looks at “achieving sustained growth in production, where natural resources are judiciously utilised and rejuvenated without affecting the natural eco-system, where farmer’s knowledge is decisive and technology is localized, where soil fertile is restored through soil test based fertilizer application and yield is high and critical infrastructure is need-based, investment flows from all corners and add value to produces, where farmers feel remunerated with smile in face and impact of disaster is negligible, investment is farmer-friendly and welfare is the motto, we visualize such an eminence where everyone prosper and no one sleeps on empty stomach and balanced food is available adequately”.

At least a minimum annual rate of 2% growth will be achieved in the fishery, animal husbandry and horticulture sectors which are supportive of agriculture. The full potential of the existing ponds, as per the fishery sector policy will be explored where private investment will be mobilized and invested for fish production. The existing potentials will be trapped in shape of renovation/excavation of existing fish tanks and adoption of improved pisciculture technologies. This will help to increase the employment status of the district where skilled or educated persons can get employment.

The unpredictable weather, ever increasing population and lackluster government policies have made dependence on agriculture a losing position. Hence, agriculture needs massive investments to develop primary infrastructure to mitigate the basic need of farmers. Dissemination of innovative ideas, timely availability of quality inputs, eco- friendly approach, and marketing of farm produce makes agriculture a viable livelihood option to full fill the fundamental need of the rural people. We are confident that we can and will meet these challenges. We also feel that we have the knowledge and the capacity to achieve the goal “food for all”.
