Success Stories
Experiences of farmers:

"I used to grow mangoes in my garden, but due to some reason the fruits were falling off even before they could mature. I then came to know of the Soochna se Samadhan service through someone. I called the service number to seek help for my problem, and in 24 hours I was able to get advice from the experts of the service on different measures to control the fruit-fall in my mango trees. I followed their advice and started to see results in a few days. I have now recommended the serive to my fellow farmers also."

“My pulse crop was infected with a disease for which I was really worried. I got to know of this number where agriculture queries are answered. I immediately called this number. The computer recorded my question and gave me a 4 digit query id and told me that my answer will be available after 72 hours. When I went back to the STD booth and dialed the query id, I got advice on using a fertilizer with the amount also specified. I used the fertilizer and within 15 days the disease was controlled and my crop recovered.” |

“This phone facility is really easy. My mustard crop was once infected with Mahu. I came to know about this service where, if you leave your query, you get answers. I left a query seeking advice on medicine for my crop. In the answer I was suggested a pesticide. I used the pesticide and this brought my crop’s disease completely under control.”
