Ditch Chemicals, Embrace ‘GrowSure’! CISH Director Dr. T. Damodaran Champions Bio-Fertilizers for Sustainable Agriculture
Anytime News Network (Pooja Shrivastava):
In a major grass-root push to promote sustainable farming and restore deteriorating soil health, a dynamic farmers’ seminar was organized under the ‘Khet Bachao Abhiyan’ framework at Madhavapur village in Malihabad. The awareness campaign extensively focused on educating local farmers about the strategic implementation of green manure, organic farming methodologies, and the systematic application of high-efficiency bio-fertilizers to shrink dependency on toxic chemical inputs.
CISH Director Backs ‘GrowSure’ for Eco-Friendly Farming Gracing the technical session, Dr. T. Damodaran, Director of the Central Institute for Subtropical Horticulture (CISH), strongly advocated for protecting the biological ecosystem of fields. He strictly urged the agricultural community to incorporate ‘GrowSure’—a specialized bio-fertilizer innovation—alongside other organic variants to boost long-term crop productivity. He explained that transitioning away from chemical fertilizers is non-negotiable to maintain soil texture and ensure toxicity-free food production.
On-Spot Delivery of Soil Health Cards and Seed Mini-Kits The operational execution of this village forum was smoothly driven by a core scientific team comprising Dr. Dinesh Kumar, Dr. Kamlesh Kumar, and Dr. Deepti Tiwari. The experts hosted an interactive QA session dealing with real-time issues under the ‘Khet Bachao Abhiyan’. Marking a solid conclusion to the event, all 54 registered farmer participants were handed over their officially certified ‘Soil Health Cards’ alongside high-quality ‘Dhaincha’ (green manure) seed kits to instantly kickstart eco-friendly practices in their respective fields.
