The calendar was formally unveiled by the Honourable Vice Chancellor and Patron, Dr. Pratap Singh.
Addressing the gathering, Dr. Pratap Singh said that the calendar would prove to be an important document not only for farmers but also for livestock keepers, as it provides information on important dates, agricultural activities, and events throughout the year.

Useful Guide for Farmers of Mewar–Vagad Region
Director of Extension Education and Mentor, Dr. R. L. Soni, stated that the MPUAT calendar is highly beneficial for farmers. It includes month-wise agricultural operations, details of crop pests and diseases, along with their control measures and recommended chemical dosages.
He added that the calendar has been specially prepared for farmers associated with Krishi Vigyan Kendras under MPUAT, including Banswara, Bhilwara, Chittorgarh, Dungarpur, Pratapgarh, Rajsamand, Udaipur-II, and Bhilwara-II. The recommendations are provided keeping in mind the local crops and farming practices of the region.

Valuable Information for Livestock Farmers
