other works. The State Government has launched a new project since the year
2007-08 with a view to giving technical shape to women's participation in agriculture
and ensuring quality in the works being undertaken by women. The project covers
technical training to women farmers, inter-district tours, village-level
training, training for forming self-help groups, etc, Reports SMS News & Features.
