Farmer's Day

Unwavering in its efforts to engage and empower farmers, TAFE celebrates a special day dedicated to farmers annually on a regional basis and provides a platform for farmers to interact with renowned agricultural scientists from leading universities and agri-research institutes. Farmers are honored for their service; are engaged in knowledge-sharing activities and introduced to best practices in cultivation, irrigation, soil preparation, crop protection and seed technologies relating to the crops of the region along with modern farm mechanization practices.

Scientists from TAFE's adaptive agricultural research centre – JFarm, also play a significant role in organizing and conducting the Farmers' Day event which has now been held for 12 successive years in different parts of the country such as Madurai, Tanjore, Alwarkurichi, Hosur and Kovilpatti in Tamil Nadu, Doddaballapur in Karnataka, Ongole in Andhra Pradesh, Rudrapur in Uttarakhand, Patna in Bihar, Jodhpur in Rajasthan and Bharuch in Gujarat.
