On the concluding day of the Sub-division Level Krushi Jantrapati Mela at Gunupur, Self Help Groups (SHGs) supported by Shakti Organisation played an active role by showcasing and distributing a variety of millet-based recipes through Maa Manikeswari WSHG, Ramanaguda. The initiative demonstrated the nutritional value of millets while highlighting their potential to strengthen women-led livelihoods and local agri-enterprises.
The event witnessed the presence of key public representatives and officials, including the MLA of Bissamcuttack, MLA of Gunupur, ADO Gunupur, ADO Muniguda, and agriculture department officials such as BAOs, AAOs, and VAWs from across Gunupur Subdivision. Their participation reflected strong institutional support for promoting sustainable and climate-resilient agricultural practices.
The mela served as an important platform for farmer interaction, knowledge sharing, and value-chain development, enabling SHGs to engage directly with farmers, officials, and stakeholders. By participating in such events, SHGs are strengthening their role in agricultural value chains while contributing to improved nutrition and sustainable rural livelihoods.
