FRONT LINE DEMONSTRATION
Front Line Demonstration is one of important mandate of KVK through which KVK demonstrated the important technology at the farmer's field every year. Various new technology like latest released varieties, fertilizers and micronutrients, biopesticides for respective crop. Agriculture implements for drudgery reduction of women and technologies to reduce cost of production etc. are also introduced.
FLD is focused on major commodities of the district and the technologies available are used to solve the problems. Under FLD programme major cereals, oilseeds, pulses, cash crops, horticulture crops of disrict are covered. The problems of the particular farming situation are studied and available technologies from the SAUs/ICAR are being demonstrated so that farmers could get the maximum returns. Major focus is to reduce the chemical pesticides and fertilizers so that cost of production can also be reduced.
FLDs on Oilseeds and pulses are the major


Last year, we conducted FLDs on various crops and enterprise as below.
