MANGALORE: Animal husbandry, poultry farming and fishing should be popularized among farmers to help them achieve economic empowerment, suggested K P Sucharitha Shetty, president, Dakshina Kannada Zilla Panchayat.
Inaugurating a training programme on animal husbandry for the farmers here recently, Shetty said development in its real sense is possible only through empowering the agriculture sector that provides livelihood to highest number of families in the country.
Referring to the state of agriculture and animal husbandry in the region, he said the main reason for this is lack of innovations in the sector. "Agriculture, the backbone of India's economy, can generate good employment opportunities provided innovative methods are introduced like in other sectors," he said.
