TRAINING PROGRAMME

Trainings provide an opportunity to the farmers to make aware of agricultural technologies as well as the shift in agricultural development approach through farming enterprises. Training of farmers encompass all the roles of a farmer instead of looking at him only as a producer. Hence, KVK conducts several training programmes both on campus and off campus every year to farmers, farm women and rural youth. The training programmes are planned so as to meet the immediate requirements of the farming community. Training programme are scheduled at appropriate time so as to impart knowledge of suitable technology before the start of the season. Because of the diversity in crop, climate and different methods of cultivation, farmers are grouped as “farmer interest groups” so as to provide appropriate training packages to the groups. Efforts have been concentrated to empower the women by giving them vocational trainings. In KVK, trainings are conducted at various levels for which the programmes are designed based on the clientele problems and their needs and interests.
