Breakthrough in jute cultivation
Rezaul Haque's very relevant report on this subject from Gaibandha (TDS June 28) features the significant breakthrough in the cultivation of jute in our country's agriculture. By transplanting jute seedlings, if its yield doubles; then the practice should be spread all over the country.
All our field level agriculture officers should be trained and made aware of this important and significant development. I will appeal to our government, particularly the ministry of agriculture, to follow up on this important development and introduce it all over the country where jute and rice is grown.
And finally, Delwar Hossain (the farmer who introduced the process of transplanting jute seedlings) needs to be officially recognised and awarded for this significant breakthrough in agriculture.
