Revenue Minister E.Chandrasekharan has called for policy initiatives to ensure that farmers receive incentives and remunerative price for organic produce. Speaking after inaugurating the vegetable garden established at his official residence here on Monday, he expressed the hope that all households in the State would produce enough vegetables for their consumption this Onam season. The excess produce, he said, could be routed to the network of eco shops set up by the government.
Officials from the Agriculture Department were present on the occasion.
