    He highlighted the significant role of horticulture in Telangana’s economy. The sector currently contributes 25% to the state’s GDP, despite covering only 12.8 lakh acres. Dr. Rajireddy reiterated the university’s commitment to helping farmers solve field-level problems, despite the challenges involved.

    The Vice-Chancellor advised researchers and scientists to focus on practical results that benefit farmers. He stressed that research should not be done just for publicity but should help farmers improve crop yields, quality, and reduce costs. He also announced plans to hold state-level conferences for each major horticultural crop grown in Telangana, along with preparing a calendar to guide farmers on the best practices for each crop.

    Dr. Rajireddy also highlighted the importance of reaching out to women horticulture farmers. The university will organize special horticultural fairs specifically for them, recognizing their growing role in the sector.

    To address the current vegetable shortage in Telangana, the university plans to develop specialized methods to meet the state’s vegetable needs. This will be done through research and collaboration with institutions across the country. The goal is to ensure that farmers can cultivate crops profitably while enhancing the university’s contribution to the state’s development.

    The event was attended by several notable figures, including Registrar Bhagwan, Dean Dr. M. Rajasekhar, THUTA President Dr. J. Cheena Naik, General Secretary T. Suresh, Control of Examination Dr. Srinivasan, professors, THUTA members, Non-Teaching Association President Yadaiah, as well as students and other attendees.
