Project Title : Technology application and upscaling for sustaining natural resources and augmenting farm income: Farmers led market linked approach

Organisation :
Lead Organisation : PAU, Ludhiana

Objectives :
1.   To assemble, integrate and assess technically feasible, economically viable, socially compatible and commercially up-scalable technology options for sustainable agriculture.

2.   To design and test suitable networks, linkages and institutional models for marketing and value addition of agricultural produce for enhancing the income of farming families.

3.   To analyze the impact of the technological interventions, identify factors of success/failure, suggest strategy for up-scaling of successful technologies and provide feedback to the research system of un-successful technologies for their modification.

4.   To build capacity of farmers and farmwomen to promote subsidiary enterprises/secondary agriculture for income enhancement and nutritional security.
