SHILLONG, June 11: On the 13th day of the VKSA campaign, Krishi Vigyan Kendras (KVKs) across Meghalaya conducted successful outreach programmes in 63 villages and 15 blocks, engaging 7,062 participants.
As the campaign nears its conclusion, the focus remains on building long-term impact by promoting advanced farming technologies, strengthening community knowledge, and encouraging sustainable agricultural practices.
Key themes included crop production techniques, organic farming, mushroom cultivation, livestock health, and soil testing. Technical sessions further covered a broad spectrum—from climate-resilient agriculture and hydroponics to biofertilizers, fish culture, dairy and piggery management, and smart farming using ICT tools.
Extension literature and information on a wide range of government schemes were distributed, and quality seeds and saplings were handed out to boost preparedness for the upcoming Kharif season.
