Interested farmers may register their names at the Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Darrang by visiting the centre personally or by contacting via phone depending on the training programme they wish to attend. The KVK welcomes participation from all sections of the farming community who are eager to enhance their knowledge and skills in modern agricultural practices.
In addition to on-campus training programs, KVK also organizes off-campus trainings in the farmers’ villages, particularly on need-based topics. These training sessions are often arranged in collaboration with sponsoring agencies and focus on specialized areas relevant to the local farming systems, ensuring accessibility and relevance for the participants.
Farmers are also encouraged to take part in KVK extension activities such as Kisan Melas, field days, study tours, farmer-scientist interactions, and exposure visits. These events serve as important platforms for farmers to learn, share experiences, and stay informed about new innovations and best practices in agriculture and allied sectors.
The Krishi Vigyan Kendra provides opportunities for direct interaction with agricultural scientists, enabling farmers to seek expert advice and consultancy services on issues related to agriculture, fisheries, livestock, and other allied fields. These interactions help farmers receive personalized guidance on scientific and technological interventions that are suitable for their specific conditions.
For practical exposure, KVK facilitates demonstrations and field trials of the latest agricultural technologies directly in farmers’ fields. This helps them understand the real-time benefits and application methods of new practices under their own agro-climatic conditions.
Farmers can also request diagnostic visits by KVK scientists to their farms for identifying problems and receiving curative recommendations. These visits are crucial in addressing field-level challenges such as pest outbreaks, nutrient deficiencies, and disease management.
The Krishi Vigyan Kendra also offers scientific literature including folders, newsletters, and other publications in both Assamese and English. Interested farmers may purchase these resources to enhance their technical knowledge and stay updated on ongoing research and innovations.
To ensure wide dissemination of information, KVK uses platforms like All India Radio (AIR) and Doordarshan for reaching out to farmers. Through farm schools, phone-in programs, and other outreach initiatives, KVK spreads the latest advancements and advisories on agriculture and allied topics to the rural community.
Moreover, farmers can send SMS queries under the Kisan Mobile Advisory Service (KMAS) to get prompt responses from experts on specific issues they face in the field. This service ensures timely and practical solutions at the fingertips of farmers.
Additionally, farmers can also avail of weather forecast services provided by the centre, which play a vital role in planning agricultural operations and mitigating risks related to climate variability.
