Malpani Trust to provide free training to SICB trainees


GANGTOK, 18 Nov: The State Institute of Capacity Building and the Malpani Trust of Bajwada, Madhya Pradesh signed an agreement today at SICB.  A press release informs that the objective behind SICB and Malpani Trust coming together is to assist, facilitate and add value to provide practical training in organic farming for a period of one month to all trainees of Livelihood Schools for Agriculture and Horticulture related courses at their farm at Dewas, Madhya Pradesh.
The purpose of the training is to harness the potentiality of the trainees on organic and sustainable farming through NATUECO Science.  The Malpani Trust is highly impressed with the State Government’s initiative to declare the State as Organic by 2015 and the process started towards that direction, the release mentions.
The Trust believes in individual growth and development through Capacity Building in the Agriculture and Horticulture Sector including value addition and entrepreneurship leading to the prosperity of the State.  The Trust will not only train the youth on farming but simultaneously develop their inner confidence to be a new breed of farmers who is consciously aware for his better livelihood.
The concept of capacity building is highly appreciated by Malpani Trust as both the institutions have the same concept and motto to develop the capacity of youth.
The Malpani Trust has offered training free of cost in their farm alongwith food and accommodation to the trainees of the batch of 40 trainees at a time for a period of one month.  It was also decided to depute the first batch from 01 to 31 December 2012, the release informs.
The SICB is sponsoring all the trainees of Livelihood Schools related with Agriculture and Horticulture with a batch of forty each alongwith two Trainers.  It is also agreed that the training will be conducted throughout the year except in the months of April, May and June.
This is being done as the trainees of the hill area find it difficult in these months due to the hot temperature in the plains. The Trust has also offered to provide consultancy and follow-up in each Livelihood School related with Agriculture and Horticulture quarterly without charging any fees to SICB, the release further adds.
