Under this program grower organizations in selected districts were provided with material for infrastructure development as well as high quality imported mother plants for their cultivations. They were also provided with technical know how through routine visits to their nurseries as well as conducting workshops and seminars on selected topics. Income generation of growers attached these organizations was complimented by organizing large district level as well as small localized exhibitions and plant sales in these selected districts.
