Chandigarh: The Haryana Government regularly organises training programmes to provide farmers with important knowledge and practical benefits. In this direction, the Centre of Excellence for Floriculture and Seed Production Technology, Munimpur (Jhajjar), functioning under the Horticulture Department, is organising a special five-day training programme for farmers.
Sharing this information, a government spokesperson said that a total of 10 farmers would be enrolled in the five-day training programme. Farmers interested in participating must register online through the official website of the Horticulture Department, Haryana, at http://kaushal.hortharyana.gov.in. Priority will be given to the first 10 farmers who complete their online registration.
The spokesperson clarified that applicants must be permanent residents of Haryana and should be between 18 and 60 years of age. Further, only one member from a single Parivar Pehchan Patra (PPP) can apply. Selected farmers will be required to bring photocopies of their Aadhaar Card and Parivar Pehchan Patra during the training.
The spokesperson further said that post-harvest management of flowers is equally important, as flowers tend to wilt quickly. During the training, farmers will learn the appropriate time for harvesting flowers, along with grading and packaging techniques to ensure that the flowers remain fresh during transportation to distant markets, including Delhi-NCR and other major cities.
