DCM Shriram Sugar’s Post

We are delighted to share the information about the 'Krishi Yantra Mela: G-2024 Shramadhan' held in early October at our Sugar & Distillery Unit in Hariawan, Uttar Pradesh. The event aimed to raise awareness about modern farming practices and showcased the latest advancements in agricultural machinery. The Mela was inaugurated by Shri V K Shukla, Additional Cane Commissioner & Director (UPCSR-Shahjahanpur), Uttar Pradesh, and Shri Roshan Lal Tamak, Executive Director and CEO - Sugar Business, in the presence of distinguished guests, scientists, farmers from our catchment area, and employees from all four units. One of the key highlights of the Krishi Yantra Mela was the 'Kisan Goshthi'—an interactive forum where Mr. Tamak discussed the importance of increasing cane yield and reducing expenses to boost farmers' income. He emphasized practices like trench planting, ratoon management, green manuring, composting, foliar spray, and balanced nutrition. Additionally, he announced DCM Shriram's high-yield scheme, offering rewards up to Rs. 50,000 to encourage farmers to achieve higher yields. In the 'Kisan Goshthi', Chief Guest Shri V.K. Shukla discussed the importance of mechanization in attracting youth to agriculture and increasing farmers' income through intercropping in sugarcane. He urged farmers to diversify beyond the CO 0238 variety and adopt other high-yielding varieties. The Krishi Yantra Event served as an exceptional platform for over 30 companies to showcase their cutting-edge innovations, including agricultural machinery, drones, and precision farming techniques. The event drew significant attention from the farming community, with more than 1500 farmers attending and benefiting from the Mela. Key participants included industry leaders such as CNH Industrial (New Holland), VST Tractors, John Deere, Captain, Shaktiman, Mahindra & Mahindra, TGSP Solar pumps, Rivulis Drip Irrigation System, Netafim, Yara fertilizer, UPL, Syngenta, FMC, Coromandel, Unnati, Solidaridad, D2F drones’ services, and SFS, among others. Bank representatives from institutions like Aryavart Gramin Bank were present to discuss loan disbursement and financing options for agricultural inputs and services. The event underscored our commitment to fostering sustainability and digitalization in agriculture. By promoting these practices, we aim to empower the farming community with the agri-machinery and knowledge they need to thrive. Thank you to all who contributed to its success and supported the promotion of sustainable and innovative farming practices. #AgricultureInnovation #SustainableFarming #DCMShriramSugar #KrishiYantraMela #AgriMachinery #FarmersFirst #PrecisionFarming #SustainabilityInAgriculture #DigitalAgriculture #EmpoweringFarmers #Growers
