The aims and objectives of the meeting  was highlighted by KVK Head and Sr. Scientist. Dr. D. S. Chhonkar. The workshop was attended by all the subject-matter scientists of KVK Tirap as Resource Persons, DHO Henrik Basar, SDAO, DVO, DFDO and field staff of Agriculture/Horticulture departments. DIPRO
