KVKS at 50: Nurturing the Needs and Aspirations of Rural Communities through Tailored Intervention?
The Golden Jubilee of India’s Krishi Vigyan Kendras (KVKs) marks 50 years of gaining knowledge in the field of agriculture, rooted in the heartlands of rural India. Established by the Indian Council of Agricultural Research, New Delhi in 1974, these centres have evolved into beacons of knowledge and progress at 731 locations nationwide. Their journey embodies a commitment to tailored interventions, leveraging local assets and fostering aspirations beyond economic growth. Despite facing challenges like inadequate human resources and climate change, KVKs offer opportunities for innovation and collaboration. As they celebrate their golden jubilee milestone, KVKs are poised to continue their transformative journey, bridging the gap between research and reality for sustainable rural development.
