Stevia Farming-Role of Indigenous species: Consultation with Pankaj Oudhia

A group of young researchers engaged in Stevia Cultivation interacted with me last month. The purpose of “Consultation” was to get knowledge about indigenous species beneficial for growth of Stevia crop. During two hour interaction they showed interest in indigenous species having multi uses viz. species for growth promotion as well as for insect and disease management. They are planning to visit Indian Stevia Farms where some of these species are in use.
