FLD
The objective of Front Line Demonstration (FLD) is to demonstrate the usefulness of the latest improved crop production and protection technologies besides newly developed varieties/hybrids to the farmers as well as extension workers with a view to reduce the time gape between technology generation and its adoption and also obtain direct feed back from farmers on the technology. FLD also create effective linkage among scientists, extension personnel and farmers.
