Regional Agriculture Conference Held in Jaipur

Earlier on Tuesday, Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan participated in the Regional Agriculture Conference held in Jaipur, Rajasthan. Speaking on the occasion, he said, "Regarding agriculture, the regional conference of our five states is being held today in Jaipur, the capital of Rajasthan. Ministers from all five states, Rajasthan, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Gujarat, and Goa, are present here. All senior officials from the states are here. All senior officials from the Government of India are present in this conference today."

Chouhan said that the first regional conference on agriculture is being held today, bringing together experts and institutions to conduct in-depth discussions that were previously not possible at the national level.

"Scientists, agriculture experts, progressive farmers, FPOs, and all institutions working from seeds to markets are participating in this regional conference today. This is the country's first regional conference on agriculture. Previously, it was organised at the national level for kharif and rabi crops, but due to a lack of time, in-depth and extensive discussions could not take place. Therefore, from this time, we have started this tradition," said the Minister. (ANI)
