The Department of Biotechnology has initiated two farmer-centric programmes Biotech Kisan and Cattle Genomics. Consider the following about them.
1.Cattle Genomics programme intends to select elite breeding animal at an early age by identifying genetic worth of animals.
2.Biotech Kisan programme focuses on creating strong scientists-farmers interactive platform to solve problems of farmers with technology.
Which of the above is/are correct?
1 only
2 only
Both 1 and 2
None
Statement 1: Biotech Kisan hubs have been recommended to be setup in seven agro- climatic zones under this programme.
These Biotech Kisan hub’s will understand problems of farmers related to water, soil, seed and marketing and provide solutions with validated technologies.
Under the programme thematic farmer fellowship as well as fellowships to women farmers (Mahila Kisan Biotech Fellowship) will be awarded.
Statement 2: The cattle genomics programme is being implemented by National Institute of Animal Biotechnology, an autonomous Institute funded by the Department.
It is currently in research mode. The main objective is to predict breeding values of animal, using DNA level information with performance record, more accurately and identify genetic worth of animal (elite animal) at an early age.
The ability to select elite breeding animal at an early age will help in enhancing productivity at farmer’s level in future.
