(SHRI GAJENDRA SINGH SHEKHAWAT)

(a) In order to promote research work and mutual coordination amongst the various Agricultural Universities, the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) is running All India Coordinated Research Projects/Network Projects in collaboration with the State Agricultural Universities as per the details given in the Annexure-I .

- (b) No such information is available with the ICAR.

(c) The  Krishi  Vigyan  Kendras  (KVKs)  assess  and  demonstrate  the  technologies developed by National Agricultural Research System for its application in farmers' fields and capacity development of the farmers. For the purpose, the KVKs organize On Farm Trials  to  assess  the  location  specificity  of  the  technologies  and  organize  Frontline Demonstrations to establish production potential of technologies on the farmers' fields.

The  KVKs  also  organize  training  programmes  for  farmers  and  extension  personnel  to update  their  knowledge  and  skills  on  modern  agricultural  technologies.  Besides,  the KVKs produce quality technological inputs like seeds, planting materials and livestock strains and fingerlings on improved varieties/breeds for availability to the farmers. The achievements  of  KVKs  on  these  activities  during  last  4  years  including  those  on agriculture and horticulture in Himalayan region are highlighting at Annexure-II .

Further,  ICAR  has  implemented  ' Pt.  Deen  Dayal  Upadhyay  Unnat  Krishi Shiksha  Yojna'  ( PDDUUKSY)  for  farmers.  Under  this  programme  launched  during 2016-2017  and  continued  during  2017-18  100  training  centres  have  been  established across the country to train farmers in Organic Farming/ Natural Farming/Cow Based Economy. Out of 100 training centres, following training centres have been established in  Himalayan  region  under  the  supervision  of  State  Agricultural  Universities/ICAR Institutes of Himalayan region during these years. The detail of centres under different agricultural  universities  are  given  in  the  following  table.  One  centre  is  responsible  for organizing  at  least  5  training  programmes  in  a  year  with  an  aim  to  train  at  least  30 participants/training.  An amount of Rupees one lakh is earmarked for conducting each training programme through SAUs/ICAR-Institutes. Hence, 15000 farmers through 100 training centres across the country are trained every year in Organic Farming/ Natural Farming/Cow  Based  Economy  of which,  600  farmers  will  be  trained  in Himalayan region.
