What's doing in All India - Madras

Abstract

Madras is conducting a vigorous campaign to increase the production of food crops. To stimulate production, the Government granted a number of con- cessions to the cultivators and the Agricultural Department is doing intensive propaganda for growing crops by improved methods. In addition to meeting the farmers personally, agricultural officers arranged nearly 3,000 exhibitions and meetings. Propaganda is directed mainly towards (i) bringing new arens under food crops, (ii) adopting intensive methods of cultivation, and (iii) rédüc- ing the acreage under commercial crops and using the areas so saved for the growing of food.
