The Minister for Agriculture, Niranjan Reddy, thinks that the agriculture sector needs to change and we need a new policy to protect farmers. He spoke at the launch of the ‘Seed Mela-2023’ at Acharya Jayashankar Telangana State Agricultural University and said that farmers can’t produce good quality seeds even though there’s lots of land in the country. The government has been helping farmers since Telangana State was formed and the Kaleshwaram project has helped too. The Minister hopes that the State will be able to produce enough seeds for other countries soon.
The seed fair will also be held at three other locations in Telangana. There are 45 types of seeds from 10 different crops available to buy, as well as organic fertilizers.
