UDHAMPUR, May 12: General Secretary, Pradesh Youth Congress RS Pathania appealed the Government and the Department of Agriculture for carving out a comprehensive policy regarding attracting the rural youth towards farming, organic farming, watersheds and adopting modern and non-conventional techniques of cultivation.
He said this after interacting with rural youth in various parts of Jammu province.
Pathania appealed the Government and particularly ministry/Department of Agri-culture, for launching of certain crash measures with a view to luring the new generation for fresh ventures and projects in the field of agriculture.
The youth should be encouraged to rely more on cash crops. Government has to make a provision for incentives and training programmes for the rural youth with a view to making them self-sufficient and self-dependent.
For proper development and flourishment of J&K, it is most imperative that majority of the potential and human resource of rural youth be utilised and channelised in the field of agriculture, Pathania added.
