Awareness Programs:

• Most of the students are basically from Urban background. For the first time, the students are seeing a rural area so closely and interacting with the farmers in their fields. This is a big learning in their academic life. Usually, the students like to do secondary data analysis, however the field visit helped them to learn as to how to frame a rural research problem, to plan a field study, to prepare an interview schedule, to conduct an interview etc. The interaction with the farmers was an immense opportunity for them to understand the life of the people who feed India.
