Addressing the valedictory session of the Global Rajasthan Agritech Meet (GRAM) in Kota, the Minister said that knowing the forthcoming agri-trends in the market will not only get them the right price but also will prove to be a deterrent for the losses they suffer.
Chaudhary said that Kota division was most appropriate for organising first of the divisional GRAMs as it has 50 per cent of the assured irrigated land as compared to the 30 per cent of the entire state.
Rajasthan Agriculture Minister Prabhu Lal Saini said that over a period of three days, over 40,000 farmers participated in the meet exceeding the expectations of the government.
He said that Rajasthan had taken initiative to grow many international varieties of crops like quinoa, olive and dragon fruit. He added that pearl, green tea as well as drum stick cultivation was also going to begin in the state.
On the final day, an MoU worth Rs 112.5 crore was signed for setting up a project for manufacture of high quality soy proteins. 21 MoUs worth over Rs 955 crore were signed on Thursday.
The three-day GRAM meet was jointly organised by the Rajasthan government and the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (Ficci).
