Tomorrow morning at 10:00 AM, we embark on an ambitious 18-day journey across the Kashmir Valley, spanning all 10 districts to promote the Holistic Agriculture Development Program (HADP). This journey will be flagged off by Shri Choudhary Mohammad Iqbal Ji, Director of the Directorate of Agriculture, Kashmir, marking the beginning of an inspiring mission to uplift Kashmir’s agriculture sector.
This journey is part of the Holistic Agriculture Development Program (HADP), a transformative initiative launched by the Agriculture Production Department of Jammu and Kashmir. The program is designed to uplift the agricultural economy of the region, integrating 29 targeted projects that address diverse areas of agriculture, including horticulture, crop production, and livestock husbandry.
Key Aspects of HADP
Comprehensive Coverage Across Sectors
HADP encompasses every facet of agriculture, from crop cultivation to horticultural advancements, and even livestock management. This holistic approach aims to create a balanced, resilient agricultural framework that benefits farmers across Kashmir.Promotion of Sustainability and Commercial Viability
By incorporating 75 specific schemes, HADP emphasizes sustainable practices, ensuring the region’s natural resources are preserved while also enhancing the profitability of farming as a livelihood. These schemes aim to make agriculture both environmentally responsible and economically rewarding.Empowering Farmers and Strengthening the Economy
With HADP, farmers in Jammu and Kashmir are equipped with resources, training, and support to adopt modern agricultural practices. By fostering a robust agricultural ecosystem, the program aspires to create a self-reliant and prosperous farming community, generating employment opportunities and improving the standard of living for countless families.
This journey is more than just a route across Kashmir; it’s a pledge to support and transform the region’s agriculture, bringing innovation and sustainability to the heart of farming communities. Over the coming days, as we travel district by district, we’ll witness firsthand the impact of HADP and the potential it holds for the future of agriculture in Jammu and Kashmir.
Join us as we pedal for progress and plant the seeds of change in the beautiful landscapes of Kashmir!
