Haryana Government Plans Region-Specific Crop Calendar and Natural Farming Initiatives
The Haryana government is developing policy measures to reduce farming costs, increase farmers' income, and promote eco-friendly agriculture. Agriculture Minister Shyam Singh Rana has directed officials to create a region-specific crop calendar tailored to local climates, encourage cultivation of low-input crops, and identify high-quality crop varieties with export potential. The government also plans to promote natural farming by preparing and distributing Jeevamrit, a bio-fertilizer made from cow dung and urine, to reduce chemical fertilizer use and support sustainable practices.
