Agri-Service Centres

These centres are the heart of the Division. Each centre looks
after the same three primary needs of the farmer: technical
guidance, high quality agri–inputs at reasonable price and
output marketing with value addition. However, each centre
faces a different set of challenges given the variation in agro –
climatic conditions from state to state. Trained agricultural
extension workers establish rapport with the farmers of their
area, regularly visit their fields, correctly diagnose problems
and provide expert technical guidance and services in these
four areas. Most of these services are offered free of cost.
