JAMMU: Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti today stressed on the need to bridge the gap between research laboratories and agriculture fields to attain optimum results in the farming sector.
Addressing the sixth convocation of Sher-e-Kashmir University of Agricultural Sciences and Technology in Jammu, Mufti said agricultural in the state is comparatively better compared to other states, but there is a need to look into the reasons for the sector not performing up to the expectation.
She asked scientists and policy-planners to find why agriculture has not picked up as an enterprising sector despite several schemes and technological interventions. (AGENCIES)
