LUDHIANA, MARCH 4 (Gurzent Singh)
A training camp on the selection and maintenance of spray pumps for orchards was organized at village Sahjo Majra by the PAU Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Samrala. The Deputy Director of the Kendra, Dr. Jugraj Singh said that more than 50 farmers participated in the camp who were provided useful tips for proper selection of spray pumps by the PAU experts. Dr. Singh said that for precision and efficiency of operations, proper selection, use and maintenance of the spray equipment are vital. Er. Sandhya said that mechanization of farming is greatly helpful in addressing the problem due to lack of adequate labour. She said that despite high cost of spray pumps suitable for orchards, they are efficient and can be economical if cooperative societies come forward to make available the multi-utility apparatus for the growers. Live demonstrations on the working of different type of pumps were held on the occasion. Dr. Jugraj Singh said that KVK Samrala holds various training programmes in need-based areas for the benefit of farmers and that the Calendar of different training programmes is available in the PAU farm magazines Changi Kheti and Progressive Farming.
