Resource Institutions (RIs) for Promoting Farmer Producer Organization
A large number of farmers in the region are small and marginal. Fragmented land holdings do not allow economies of scale in production. Hence, the formation of Farmer Producer Companies (FPCs) in the clusters has provided the members with economies of scale in purchase of inputs, processing and marketing of the produce. The FPCs are also helping farmers in getting timely and adequate credit and has improved their access to market. Today farmers are realizing better returns on their produce by selling the produce through the FPCs.
As a Resource Orgainzation (RO) we have Promoting and Technical & Institutional Support to 2100 Small & Marginal Farmers under 05 Farmer Producer Organization (FPOs) in Pratapgarh, Jaunpur, Amethi & Mirzapur districts of Uttar Pradesh State.

Agri clinic and Agribusiness Centres (AC & ABC) Scheme
The ACABC scheme is being implemented by Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers' Welfare, Government of India, with NABARD acting as subsidy channelizing agency. This programme aims to tap the expertise available in the large pool of Agriculture Graduates. Committed to this programme, the CTED is providing start-up training to graduates in Agriculture, or any subject allied to Agriculture like Horticulture, Sericulture, Veterinary Sciences, Forestry, Dairy, Poultry Farming, and Fisheries etc. After completing the training we are facilitating the trainees to start their own agribusiness related venture linkages with special start-up loan with NABARD Subsidy. After the training we provided free of cost handholding facilities, counseling and guidance to the trainees for one year CTED has not only been a pioneer in developing agricultural practices but has also worked towards disseminating the same to the farming community. A step in this direction is the CTED AC&ABC inaugurated on 30th April, 2018 in Amethi. The AC&ABC center organizes residential training programs (free of charges) for agriculture students from across India ensuring that the latest in farming practices is made available to the remotely located and marginal farmers at appropriate times. The institute has reached even the remotest corners of the region through its AC&ABC center.
