At the recently held Centre-State Science Conclave in Ahmedabad experts discussed plausible technological interventions for processing, product development, sustainability, and export orientation that could improve farmers’ income.

A need for adaptation of technologies like ICAR-FUSICONT technology for medium and high-density plantations to bridge the yield gap, increase productivity, and collaboration to expand the online market places is needed. 

The expert panellists at the agriculture session of the conclave organized by the Department of Science & Technology, deliberated on challenges and their plausible solutions for improving agricultural income.

The Centre helps to propagate the critically endangered plant and tree species in the country.

Union Minister Narendra Singh Tomar has inaugurated “Heartfulness Tree Conservation Centre”, a modern tissue culture laboratory at Kanha Shanti Vanam in Nandigama mandal of Rangareddy district. Launched on December 28, 2021, the laboratory helps to propagate the critically endangered plant and tree species in the country.

While Heartfulness Institute aims at growing the plantlets at the Ashram, a good share will also be given off across the country to the forestry department, NGOs, and other plantation bodies that are involved with afforestation in India.

The Heartfulness Tree Conservation Centre has a 5,000 sq ft facility with 10,000 cleanroom technology, 15,00,000 annual sapling production capacity with the finest equipment and infrastructure with the tissue culture processes being overseen by a team of experts from India and Israel with more experts joining the team in the next three months.

At least five endangered varieties are propagated at the rate of 1.5-2 lakh saplings per year per variety by the Heartfulness Tree Conservation Centre. The raw material sources are obtained from native locations of the endangered species with the help of the Forest Department.
