MEVEDIR offers advisory and extension services on modern technologies and farm practices
related to organic farming. We have the experience and expertise to manage, design and implement agro based organic programmes.
We offer support services related to total farm management, training and capacity
building measures, regular internal audit systems and documentation. Some of our
services offered to farmer groups and other agencies include the following:
Consultancy, Training & Capacity
Building
Over the years, MEVEDIR has created the edge in the market for specialized agro-based
services. With a team of experienced professionals and experts, we render consultancy
services to government agencies, individuals, organisations, NGO’s, groups of farmers
and interested clients.
MEVEDIR also provides capacity building and training programmes for agricultural
project management activities or other specialized agro-based services to various
clients. Some of the specialized areas for consultancy and capacity building include
Organic Farming techniques, Greenhouse, Vermicomposting and training on tissue culture.
Organic Inputs and Practices
MEVEDIR is equipped with the resources and experience to undertake and consult on
large-scale organic farming
within Sikkim. We are committed to provide extended
services and inputs for organic farming to other North Eastern States of India.
Fertility and Nutrition Management
MEVEDIR supports its farm units on fertility and nutrition management by prescribing
appropriate inputs for maintaining optimum fertility for various crops. Additional
nutrient requirements are mobilized through the government and non government organizations.
Our field based staff regularly monitors and reports the status on fertility and
nutrition.
Pest and Disease Management
Our eco-friendly organic pest management programme employs various techniques that
include use of naturally occurring plant and animal extracts. MEVEDIR encourages
poly-culture, and avoids monoculture. Crop rotation also breaks the pest cycle,
reducing the incidence of pests and diseases. When pest incidence threatens to affect
the crop substantially, biological pest and disease control measures are used.
Organic Farming Volunteer Program
Our centre at Topakhani serves as training cum demonstration venue for organic farmer
groups and extension service providers. Internship training programmes on organic
farming and related fields are conducted. With our network and field based programs,
we have mobilized volunteers for exposure and training in this centre.
