Abstract

As we all know, Kerala is trying to recover from its worst flooding in a century. People have lost their homes, belongings and their source of livelihood. Many agricultural crops, animals, poultry and fishes have perished due to floods. The surviving crops became prone to many diseases and pest attack. ICAR-Krishi Vigyan Kendra (Ernakulam) of Central Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI) as part of its commitment towards farmers advised the farmers for reviving and taking precautionary measures in the fields of agriculture, animal husbandry and fisheries. ICARCentral Coastal Agricultural Research, North Goa, ICAR- Indian Institute of Spices Research, Kozhikode, Kerala state Animal Husbandry Department and Department of Agriculture joined hands with KVK in this endeavour. Joint recommendations on post flood management in Agriculture, Animal husbandry and Fisheries were released. KVK has decided to focus its activities in the flood affected areas in the coming years so as to handhold the affected farmers.
