The four-day Krishi Mela at University of Agricultural Sciences in Dharwad, which was held after a gap of two years in view of the pandemic, evoked an overwhelming response with around 15.50 lakh farmers and people from different walks of life visiting it.
The farm fair, which concluded on Tuesday, also saw over 700 quintals of various seeds worth ₹55 lakh being sold to farmers.
The stalls that showcased advanced farm technologies, indigenous farming methods and other innovative technologies developed by both companies and progressive farmers, among others, attracted people in large numbers.
