Gopalganj, Bihar: Bharat sugar mill, Sidhwalia has started a campaign to help farmers grow more sugarcane per acre. As part of the campaign, the mill’s team is visiting villages to teach farmers how to grow sugarcane using better and more modern farming methods, reported Live Hindustan.
The team is also showing farmers how to use new farming tools and explaining how machines can help reduce costs and improve their crop. Sanjeev Kumar Sharma, Executive Vice President of the mill’s cane department, said that service centers have been set up in different areas to provide machines for farming. These machines are available to farmers for a set fee, based on the size of their land.
“This will help farmers plant sugarcane across more land at a lower cost in the coming planting season,” Sharma said.
To solve the problem of electricity for farming, Executive Chairman Vikas Chand Tyagi said that solar-powered water pumps will be given to farmers. These pumps will help farmers water their sugarcane fields even when electricity is not available.
Executive Vice President Vinod Singh, Cane Department Manager R.S. Mishra, and team members Rajan Tiwari, Arvind Singh, Puneet Chauhan, Amit Tyagi, Pankaj Singh, and Ramayan Pandey were present on the occasion.
