Agriculture and Farmers Welfare Minister Shyam Singh Rana said farmers must adopt natural farming, and the government has been forming various policies to support them.

He was speaking on the second day of the three-day agri-tech exhibition and startup conclave organised at Kurukshetra University.

The Agriculture Minister said, “There are three types of farming, including the chemical-based, organic farming and natural farming. We have to move towards natural farming. For this, the central and state governments have made and implemented schemes for the farmers. Efforts are being made to increase the income of the farmers and also to reduce the input cost. To promote natural farming, the government has set a target of one lakh acres and the government is completely standing with the farmers.”

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
