Jatropha Promotion In Karnataka
Dear friends,
Karnataka is the best place to misled the people in the Press on jatropha curcas with the availability of low priced tariffs in News Papers and seasoned TV channels who talk something and do something for the promotion of Jatropha.
The Govt.Of karnataka is totally against its promotion the way the Hon'ble Gowda told the Press a couple of Months ago and the mere silent spectator role of the Universities in according due recognition for this crop as if Karnatak is meant for some specified crops and community in Agri-culture arena.
The Politicians are making huge money in the name of Education and Sugar mills whereas, they are dead against promoting Jatropha in Karnataka it seems.
The BIRD-K of BAIF in Tiptur also slowly and strongly in favour of these elements the way in their approach towards the Promoters of Jatropha plantation in other states instaed of seriously delivering anything in Karnataka.
No problem, Jatropha needs the basic support of the fuel consumers and not the irrelevant people in Science and Agri-culture.Karnataka is far behind in Bio-Diesel movement except a few Media jokes here and there.
Bhadrinath.
