Karnataka Minister Shobha Karandlaje- Government will make changes in agriculture sector

According to Shobha Karandlaje, Minister of State for Agriculture and Farmers' Welfare, the government has decided to make many changes in the agriculture sector because farmers do not receive adequate facilities or subsidies.

She stated that the government intends to conduct agricultural research in order to revolutionize the agriculture sector.

She spoke after officially opening the fifth iteration of the three-day 'Dream Home Mega Exhibition and Krishi Yantra Mela-2023' on Friday at the Vivekananda Engineering College campus in Puttur. Campco Ltd., Aercanut Research and Development Foundation, Vivekananda Vidyavardhaka Sangha, Vivekananda College of Engineering and Technology, Puttur, and Mangalore University are all involved in organizing the massive exhibition.

She added that small farmers cannot afford to purchase high-priced agricultural equipment. Subsidies are given to them by the national government to help support them. Farmers can increase their yield and income as a result. She said that the government is making efforts to raise the economic and social standing of farmers.

According to Campco Ltd.'s President Kishor Kumar Kodgi, New technology must be available to everyone, and in order to realize this goal, Campco regularly hosts the Krishi Yantra Mela.

According to Sanjeeva Matandoor, MLA for the Puttur constituency, Farmers need to be made aware of the technology. This massive agricultural machinery exhibition has been organized in this regard, he added, to make it easier for our farmers to access agricultural machinery and products.

BK Hebbar, Director of CPCRI and ICAR Kasargod, stated after the agricultural stores were inaugurated that the agriculture sector is undergoing significant change. Because of their interest in agriculture, today's youth are inventing new agricultural machines. Let every farmer benefit from this, he said.

"Today's youth are more inclined towards IT companies, but you can't live on money alone," said Dr. Kalladka Prabhakara Bhar, President, Vivekananda Vidyavardhaka Snagha, Puttur. We require food to survive, and we must cultivate it. "It would be preferable if the youth shifted their focus to agriculture," he commented.
