Kalpavriksha Knowledge Centre (KKC), as the name suggests, would be a centre of excellence the ones developed by the Parachute Kalpavriksha Foundation in Perundurai. The main aim of this centre is to impart knowledge to farmers regarding best management practices for farming with the help of experts. The farmers undergo model-based training under the guidance of agriculture experts in areas such as pest, disease, water management, etc. After classroom training, an open-house group discussion is conducted so that farmers can clarify their doubts about farming with our experts.
Finally, these farmers get to visit our Kalpavriksha demo farm, which acts as a model farm for demonstrating best practices.
Farmers Testimonials

I have over 300 trees on my farm. My farming practices were not so organised, and hence, I faced many difficulties in nurturing my trees to give good yields. Fortunately, in the year 2018, Parachute Kalpavriksha Foundation representatives paid regular visits to my farm, educated me about various techniques, and saved my farm from pest attacks. Compared to previous yields, I am getting a substantial quantity increase on my farm this year.

I have been involved in farming since 1974. Despite the experience I had in farming, I was stuck when the rhinoceros beetle attacked my trees. The Parachute Kalpavriksha Team has guided me with clear strategies on how to trap pests and arrest them. Parachute Kalpavriksha Foundation has also shared knowledge on water management techniques for increasing the yield per tree and strategies to save water during drought seasons. I am very happy they are visiting my farm once a month to guide me on various aspects of farming.

We have been involved in farming practices for over 25 years. Stem bleeding disease had affected trees to a large extent. So, we decided to call the Parachute Kalpavriksha Foundation team for inspection. After inspection, their team suggested remedies to overcome the disease. We applied those techniques and heaved a sigh of relief upon seeing the increased nitrogen levels in our soil, which benefited us with a higher yield per tree. I wholeheartedly thank the Parachute Kalpavriksha Foundation for its service to farmers!
Keep serving the farmer community.
