Under CM Mohan Yadav’s leadership, Madhya Pradesh is accelerating its natural farming agenda. During the Agriculture Cabinet meet in Barwani’s Nagalwadi, 25 district farmers were chosen for elite training outside the state to become master trainers.
Yadav proudly proclaimed MP’s national stature in natural farming, with these trainers set to ignite a statewide movement towards pesticide-free, soil-regenerative practices.
A massive Rs 27,746 crore farmer welfare package was approved, including the ambitious Barla Lift Micro Irrigation project costing Rs 861 crore. It will irrigate 15,500 hectares spanning 33 villages in the Narmada region.
Detailed funding: Rs 3,502.48 crore for agriculture, Rs 4,263.94 crore for horticulture schemes, Rs 9,508 crore for livestock and dairy, Rs 218.50 crore for fisheries, Rs 8,186 crore through cooperation, and Rs 2,067.97 crore for Narmada projects.
Reaffirming government resolve, Yadav said, ‘Farmers’ prosperity is our path to state progress.’ Barwani’s transformation into a tourism hotspot is also in the works, promising economic upliftment.
By blending training, irrigation, and diversification, this initiative heralds a new era for Madhya Pradesh farming—sustainable, profitable, and future-proof.
