The programme is being held under the Holistic Agriculture Development Programme (HADP-18), focusing on the minimisation of pesticide use in agriculture. The inaugural session was graced by Professor Haroon Rashid Naik, Director of Research at SKUAST-K, as the Chief Guest. The event is being coordinated by Professor Shaheen Gul, with active participation from students, researchers, and officers from frontline agricultural and horticultural departments across the region.
In his keynote address, Professor Haroon Rashid Naik emphasised the vital role of bio-pesticides in mitigating the harmful effects of chemical insecticides. He highlighted that bio-pesticides play a crucial part in promoting sustainable agricultural practices by reducing environmental pollution, preserving biodiversity, and improving soil health. Speaking on the occasion, professor Shabir A Wani underscored the importance of integrating eco-friendly pest management strategies into modern farming systems to address the emerging challenges in crop protection.

Adding to the discussion, Professor Manzoor A.
