<p>The mission of VallabhKrishakRadio is updating farmers with latest know-how and knowledge on agriculture and allied subjects so that they can improve their livelihood through increased productivity and income. VallabhKrishak Radio&rsquo;s vision is that the farmers should be owners of their Community Radio Station so that the community gets benefitted.</p>

<p>The government&rsquo;s policy to allow the educational institutions to set up Community Radio Station prompted the Krishi Vigyan Kendra to have its own Community Radio Station. KVKs consider it important togenerate technology for farmers at the earliest. The Community Radio Station can do wonders in its area of operation by providing technical knowledge and live interaction between farmers and scientists.</p>

Content is yet to be updated by the station.

<p>Community Participation: Keeping in view the mission of the Community Radio Station, programme content is produced with the help of scientists, farmers and women. The content generation takes place in the field, village as also in the studios. Most of the stakeholders are happy to share their views for the benefit of the community. VallabhKrishak Radio gives space to farmers to demand and decide the next day&rsquo;s broadcast. The farmers express their need for information or discussion on a subject and it has been seen that this improves their skills and knowledge of available technologies. Importantly, now farmers consult experts before buying any farming input.</p>

<p>Funding and Partnerships: The extension reform scheme of the Government of India provided all support for establishing the Community Radio Station at KVK.</p>

<p>As VallabhKrishak Radio is mainly engaged in the transfer of technologies, mostlistenersare farmers and farm-women. Many farmers have been able to improve their technical skills. The live talk of successful farmers has motivated them to adopt new farming technologies and methods. The understanding of the farmers has improved because the success story of a fellow farmer is shared timely.</p>
