Stress on branding agriculture products


PATNA: Principal secretary, agriculture, Anjani Kumar Singh, on Wednesday stressed on branding of the agriculture products of the state for establishing their identity at national level.
Addressing a high-level meeting with the secretary, agriculture, N Vijaylakshmi, director, agriculture, Arvinder Singh, and other senior officials of the department, Anjani said the second agriculture road map for development is well planned and documented and has to be implemented in toto. He said the people of other states know the agriculture produce of Bihar are exported to their states but branding of Bihar's agriculture produce would help get better return of their value.
Expressing satisfaction over an increase in production of vermicompost in the state and its greater use in farming, he said vermicompost should be used for enhancing the agriculture yield to improve the lot of the farmers. It would reduce the use of chemical fertilizer, Anjani said. He stressed on maintaining transparency in providing new techniques and modern farming equipment to the farmers. He said the standard would be set to assess the performance of department officials and the method of their posting to enable them work fearlessly. He directed the agriculture officials to maintain their monthly work plan and communicate to him through email.
