MANIKGANJ, April 14, 2021 (BSS) – The farmers of char areas of Daulatpur, Shibalaya and Harirampur Upazilas of the district are happy for getting bumper output of groundnut as harvesting of the crop has started on the barren char lands during the current Kharif-1 season.
Department of Agriculture Extension (DAE) officials here said the groundnut is generally cultivated on the sandy land.
Experimentally, some local farmers started to cultivate groundnut on their barren land which would remain fallow all over the year in the char areas for the last few years, they said, adding that seeing their success, a number of farmers now are cultivating groundnut in the vast char areas of the Jamuna and the Padma rivers.
