Prof. (Dr.) Raihana Habib Kanth, Dean of the Faculty of Agriculture, Wadura, was the Chief Guest at the inaugural function.

Dr. Khalid Rasool, Professor & Head, Division of Horticulture, Faculty of Agriculture Wadura, highlighted the importance of skill-based entrepreneurial training in today’s competitive environment. He urged participants to embrace skill development as a key pathway to career success, particularly given the challenges in securing public sector jobs.

He expressed hope that the training would equip participants with the skills and expertise needed to establish new fruit nursery business ventures. Dr. Nazir Ahmad Ganai, coordinator of another training program titled “Tree Architecture for Quality Produce under High-Density Planting (HDP)” encouraged participants to learn about tree architecture for effective canopy management. He highlighted that this skill course would foster entrepreneurship in high- density plantations. Dr. Arif Hussain Wani, coordinator of the Protected Cultivation of High-Value Cut Flowers; program, discussed the benefits of growing cut flowers in protected environments.
