Need for setting up of Krishi Vigyaan Kendras

  • Indian agriculture faces many challenges, including a high percentage of smallholder farmers, a lack of supply chain infrastructure, and extreme weather conditions.
  • A key strategy in addressing these issues, in addition to policy support and a functioning market, is using technology to better understand and adapt to complex challenges.
  • However, higher-level research about modern agricultural trends, such as Climate Change and GMOs, takes place in universities. The practical implications of this research, or their relevance to a certain local context, are not readily apparent. 
  • The same goes for ground-level innovations which are effective in one local context but may not be extensible to others.
  • Especially in areas with such geographic complexity as India, agricultural extension departments such as KVKs serve to gather, test, and disseminate knowledge between centralized institutions and a geographically dispersed rural population.

Criteria for Setting up of KVKs

  • A KVK can be formed under a variety of host institutions, including agricultural universities, state departments, ICAR institutes, other educational institutions, or NGOs.
  • The 700 KVKs in operation per the ICAR website are split into:
    1. 458 under State Agricultural Universities
    2. 18 under Central Agricultural Universities
    3. 64 under ICAR institutes
    4. 105 under NGOs
    5. 39 under state departments or other public sector undertakings, and
    6. 16 under other miscellaneous educational institutions
  • A KVK must own about 20 hectares of land for the purpose of testing new agricultural technologies.

Krishi Vigyan Kendras Portal

  • The Central Government launched the Krishi Vigyan Kendras (KVKs) Portal which helps in monitoring the functioning of KVKs at the National level and in providing timely information and advisory to the farmers.
  • The aim of the portal is to transfer the technologies developed by the agricultural scientists to the farmers in a fast and effective manner using the web and mobile technology as well as to monitor the activities of Krishi Vigyan Kendras (KVKs)

Objectives of Krishi Vigyaan Kendras Portal

  • To create a platform to monitor the various activities as well as resource utilization by various KVKs;
  • To create a database of the various programmes organized by the KVKs along with their detailed information and learning resources;
  • To help the farmers in resolving their queries using the web and mobile technologies;
  • To provide information about various facilities and activities performed by the KVKs and to provide linkage to other important information such as weather and market information.
