  Inaugurating the Pusa Krishi Vigyan Mela-2020 in Delhi, Union Minister for Agriculture & Farmers’ Welfare Narendra Singh Tomar has called upon agriculture graduates and scientists to be practicing farmers themselves. He exhorted them to at least get engaged in their kitchen gardens. “Your purpose in career does not end with securing a cushy job or just remain engaged in education and research, but you should be a successful farmer in your area. Even those agriculturists retiring every year should remain involved in farming and inspire others”, Tomar underlined. “The farmer should remain alive in you. You may engage in farming in your kitchen garden in your spare time. It will keep you connected with agriculture as a profession,” said Shri Tomar.
