Jharkhand to Distribute 80k Quintals of Kharif Seeds
The state of Jharkhand is giving out a lot of seeds to farmers for the Kharif season, which is like the main crop season.
They plan to distribute more than double the amount of seeds compared to last year.
Farmers can get these seeds at a discount, with the government paying for half or even all of the cost.
The government is also planning to help farmers water their crops.
The agriculture department is asking farmers for feedback so they can improve.
About 80% of the people in the state depend on farming.
The department is working hard to make sure farmers have everything they need to grow their crops successfully.
