A three-day Agri Tech-2023 conference and exhibition began on the Acharya N. G. Ranga Agricultural University (ANGRAU) campus at Lam in Guntur district on December 3 (Sunday).

Agriculture Minister Kakani Govardhan Reddy also launched Agro Chem Federation of India’s (ACFI’s) ‘Jago Kisan Jago’ campaign on the occasion. He flagged off five mobile vans as part of the ACFI’s extensive outreach campaign to educate farmers on the importance of using high-quality genuine agricultural inputs for maximising crop yield.

Addressing the gathering, Mr. Govardhan Reddy said that the Andhra Pradesh government had undertaken several initiatives to help farmers increase their income, and increase farm output as the State aimed at raising its shares in the national output and exports.
