 TTD Chairman Sri YV Subba Reddy said on Thursday that with a goal to make soil pesticide-free, TTD will conduct training programs in every district of AP soon in a big way to spread awareness among farmers on natural farming techniques using Desi Cow products.

 

Addressing as Chief Guest at the inaugural session of a two-day training program for Nodal Goshala operators at the SVETA Bhavan in Tirupati on Thursday, the Chairman said that the Honourable CM of AP Sri YS Jaganmohan Reddy is focussing on motivating the farmers to encourage organic farming by setting up an exclusive department, the first of its kind by any Government in the country.

 

As part of the Government's directive, TTD has also taken up Gosamrakshana programmes in a big way which includes Go-based organic farming and is also purchasing organic products at MSP from the natural farmers which is being used in preparing Srivari Naivedyam since last May.

 

He said during the two-day camp the nodal Goshalas will be instructed by experts and in turn they should coordinate with goshalas in their jurisdiction and spread awareness among the operators.
