Union Agriculture Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan will inaugurate the National Conference on Agriculture for Kharif Campaign 2026 in New Delhi, bringing together senior officials, agricultural scientists, and state representatives to strategize for the upcoming crop season.
The conference will focus on preparedness for the Kharif season, with discussions on monsoon forecasts, contingency planning in light of possible El Niño conditions, and measures to ensure timely availability of seeds, fertilizers, and irrigation support.
Key themes include strengthening climate-resilient agriculture, enhancing water-use efficiency, and ensuring farmer welfare through government-backed schemes. The event is expected to set the tone for coordinated national efforts to safeguard food security during the 2026 monsoon cycle.
