Haryana CM Saini's Agricultural Policy Push

India===Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini chaired a review meeting with Agriculture and Horticulture Department officials to emphasize crop diversification, horticulture, and the expansion of high-value fruit crops. The initiatives include developing cluster-based farming models for fruits like strawberry, lemon, guava, and dragon fruit, promoting tissue culture, and researching climate-resilient seeds. The state government aims to reclaim 140,000 acres of waterlogged and saline land by 2026-27 through bio-drainage using eucalyptus trees. Additionally, there's a strong push for natural farming, with plans to provide resources and compensation for initial losses, adopting the model implemented by Acharya Devvrat at Gurukul Kurukshetra. The Chief Minister also directed regular pesticide testing and the establishment of a state-of-the-art organic laboratory to ensure product quality and safety.
