Bareilly, June 30 -- Union Agriculture, Farmers Welfare, and Rural Development Minister Shivraj Singh Chauhan announced that 2,000 teams of scientists will soon be deployed across all districts of the country.
These teams will work directly with local farmers, sharing knowledge on modern agriculture practices, advanced livestock breeds, technical farming methods, and horticulture.
Emphasising the need to bridge the gap between research and real-world application, he said, "Scientists should not remain confined to laboratories. They must engage with farmers in fields and barns." He further added that research papers must lead to transformation in the lives of farmers and livestock breeders, not just serve academic publications.
