Objectives. / 1-Evaluation/Development of new varieties of major crops and fruit plants best suited under the Agro-ecological condition of the area.
2-Formulation of advance production technology for different crops and fruit plants.
3-Testing of soil and water samples for fertility status and fertilizer formulation.
Vision/Future Plan / To cater to the food needs of the community through improvement
in agriculture production by evolving new techniques/high potential
suitable varieties of different commodities in the area.
Development and dissemination of new Package of production
technology.
1-The economic level of major nutrients, best time and method of sowing of different crops like wheat and sugarcane were studied and recommended for the area.2-The more profitable technology i.e. off-season vegetable production of Squash melon under plastic tunnel technology was evaluated and disseminated for commercial cultivation in the area.3-A new high value cash crop (Sugar beet) was introduced for cultivation on commercial scale as a better substitute for sugarcane.Medium and long term plans
Mid term plans:
New high potential, suitable Varieties / Production technology of major crops like Wheat, Sugarcane and Maize will be evaluated and disseminated systematically in the area through adaptive research trials, publication and field days / conferences in the areas.
Long term plans:
To improvement the socio-economic condition of farming community through evaluation/introduction of new profitable crops and advance production technology on commercial level.
Qualitative and quantitative change in the production of major crops in the area.

1.7 Most Demanded Information/Services (MDiS).

Indicator / Detail
Seed Varieties / Farmers visit station and get information about the new and high yielding varieties of various crops.
Fertilizer doses for various crops / Farmers of the area also enquire about the usage of fertilizer dose for various crops.
Use of pesticides and weedicides. / Farmers of the area take great interest in the use of various pesticides and weedicides for various insects and crops.

1.8 FAQ.

Indicator/Sectors / Detail
Seed problems. / The farmers have to face the seed shortage problems in the area because farmers are in lage numbers and the seed available with research and extension department does not meet the need of them so it is the most serious problem of the farmers in the area.
Water problems / Shortage of water is the most serious problem for the farmers of the area because water is the vital for every living organism.The irrigation water in the form of canal is shor every time and the tube well water is not available in proper amount and proper time because the load shedding of power/electicity in the area is in teasing condition so the tube wells of the farmer do not provide the required amount of water.
Agri: Knowledge / Lack of Agri. Knoledge is the main problem of the area and farmers use their traditional methods but we are are trying to convey and transfer the modern agri:technology through field days,face to face meetings with farmers and radio talks.
