DSR boost for Punjab CM’S village Satouj

-

Chief minister Bhawant Mann’s native village, Satouj, is getting a preference for the special scheme announced by him for direct seeding of rice for paddy sowing. On Sunday, senior officers of the agricultur­e department and scientists from Punjab agricultur­al university reached Satouj to hold a daylong camp to train the farmers about the new technique. Mann has given call to the state farmers to adopt this method to conserve subsoil water. Agricultur­e department joint director JPS Grewal and PAU’S agronomy department head Makhan Singh Bhullar were in the village along with other officers and scientists. Satouj residents came out in large number to get trained. Mann’s mother Harpal Kaur and sister Manpreet Kaur were among them.
