Minister of Land Management, Agriculture and Cooperatives in Karnali Province, Bhim Prakash Sharma, has said training relating to agriculture must be in field rather than on table. He viewed Karnali government is honest to this regard.
Addressing a concluding session of Karnali Province-level training on ‘citrus decline management and farming technology’ at Birendranagar on Friday, Minister Sharma argued that the programmes and training on agriculture held at hotels fail to ensure result.
“Farmers do not need grants but technological support,” he said, adding, “It is time to pay heed to their needs and concerns.”
According to him, the province government was going to conduct training in farmers’ field for the first time.
Province government is responsible for ensuring safety to agriculture and livestock, Minister Sharma reminded, urging farmers to foster entrepreneurship rather than seeking grants. Both practical and technical knowledge are essential to make farming successful.
