services,
and
consultancy/advisory services. (production
and marketing) rendered to farmers by
private companies/firms on the basis of
payment or free of charge.
However, we should take this step with a caution that in our country
there is a lot of heterogeneity in farming systems. Therefore, it is
suggested that we may take this step in a phased manner.

MANAGE, 2004
Excel And Me: Excel, over the years, had initiated this
systems approach wherein Integrated Pest Management (IPM)
and Integrated Crop Management (ICM) were consistently
promoted.
The Excel & Me not only offers advice to the farmers for crop
cultivation but also provides quality inputs at a wholesale price to
grow the crops for better yields.
The farmers who come for the Gyan Kendra not only receive proper
advice but also they can get farm machinery on hire.
