Speaking on this occasion, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that in the past decades, our agricultural scientists have done good research in many areas, giving better results. On the other hand, the progressive farmers of the country have also brought big changes in the agriculture sector with their experiments. They have increased production and done successful experiments. In such a situation, it is very important that the information about successful research of scientists and successful experiments of progressive farmers reaches all the farmers. All of you have been trying in this direction since the beginning, but now it needs to be done with new enthusiasm. You will get ample opportunities for this from ‘Vikasit Krishi Sankalp Abhiyan’.
