During the field visit, several key activities were carried out to enhance orchard management practices. Demonstrations on intercropping under low tunnel technology were conducted and implemented at the model orchard site to promote efficient utilization of space and resources. Additionally, gap filling of cold resistant apple cultivars was undertaken jointly by the KVK Nyoma team along with the local farmers, ensuring improved orchard productivity and sustainability.<\/div>\n

To further support the farming community, essential inputs and training materials, including secateurs, pruning guidance, and mulch sheets, were distributed among the participating villagers. These inputs are expected to strengthen scientific orchard management practices in the region.<\/div>\n
