The Khet Bachao Abhiyan 2026 was officially launched on Tuesday at Krishi Vigyan Kendra Dalip Nagar, which operates under Chandrashekhar Azad University of Agriculture and Technology in Kanpur. The initiative aims to address the declining health of agricultural fields in the region.

Recommended Practices for Soil Improvement
Bajpei highlighted several methods to enhance soil fertility, including the use of cow dung manure, vermi compost, compost, natural farming, and green manure.
