Minister for Agriculture N. Cheluvarayaswamy believes that scientific farming, farm mechanisation and integrated farming systems can help farmers improve their income.
After inaugurating a three-day Krishi Mela at Coorg Institute of Technology in Ponnampet, Kodagu district, on November 3, he said the Congress government is committed to the welfare of farmers and the common people.
Nearly 600 kendras have been opened in Karnataka for providing advanced farm equipment for the benefit of farmers. In the coming days, more thrust will be laid on farm mechanisation and more support will be extended to farmers in this direction, he explained.
