A.P. Agros will be revived in a big way to bring it closer to farming community and extend its services to them in farm mechanisation, seed and fertiliser supply.

Agriculture Minister P. Pulla Rao who reviewed Agriculture and allied departments over two days said here on Tuesday that cattle breeding, sheep rearing, pisciculture would be given further impetus as they were better income generating activities.

Cage culture for fisheries development in the fields popular in Chhattisgarh would be promoted and the proposal for fish farming in sea edges would also be considered.
