The Krishi Vigyan Kendras (KVK) are the agricultural knowledge and resource centres for farmers, farmwomen, rural youth and extension functionaries. These are the innovative district level institutions meant for promoting science-based practices in agriculture and allied sectors in a problem-solving mode. KVKs accomplish this through assessment and demonstration of location specific technology modules. Besides, they also perform activities keeping in view the needs of farmers and other stakeholders.
Based on the recommendation of Education Commission (1964-66), consideration/review by Planning Commission and Inter-Ministerial Committee, and further recommendation by a committee headed by Dr. Mohan Singh Mehta appointed by ICAR in 1973, the idea of establishment of Farm Science Centre (Krishi Vigyan Kendra) was evolved. First KVK was established in 1974 at Puducherry on pilot basis under the administrative control of Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore. The XI Five Year Plan envisaged establishing additional KVK in larger districts. Zone VIII had the privilege of establishing the first additional KVK, in Tumakuru district, Karnataka. With effect from April 2017, reorganization of zones was implemented and ATARI Bengaluru became Zone XI with jurisdiction of 3 states/UTs Viz., Karnataka, Kerala and Lakshadweep.
Science and technology-led growth leading to enhanced productivity, profitability and sustainability of agriculture
Farmer-centric growth in agriculture and allied sectors through application of appropriate technologies in specific agro-ecosystem perspective
Technology Assessment and Demonstration for its Application and Capacity Development
The approved strength of manpower at each KVK is 16, which includes one Senior Scientist & Head, six Subject Matter Specialists, three Programme Assistants, two administrative staff, two drivers and two supporting staff.
Every KVK is having provision of Instructional farm, administrative building, farmers hostel, staff quarters, Technology demonstration units, four-wheeler and two-wheelers.
It is the advisory body, which guides and reviews KVK activities. Head of host organization is the Chairman and members include Director of ATARI, Director of Extension, officials from all development departments of the district, and representatives of farmers/farmwomen. SAC discusses the progress of work done as per mandate and provide guidance for future activities.
Every KVK is provided with one-time seed money for facilitating production of need based technological products which includes seeds, planting material, livestock, bio agent and bio product to support new technological inventions taken by the KVK. The seed money will be returned in five equal instalments and surplus generated will be utilized to strengthen the infrastructure of KVK.
Based on the agro-ecological situation, prevailing cropping & farming systems, KVKs are broadly working on the following thrust areas:
