AgriManipur - Food above all - Volume 1 , Issue 1
SAFI Initiative *
Nilakuthi Food Park
Dear Friends and Well wishers,
We, the team AgriManipur, are every excited to announce that AgriManipur, a magazine on agriculture and food with focus on Manipur, is crystallising after a long hard-work. It's your faith in us that make this a reality. We particularly thank Mr. N. Bobo Meitei for kindness in delivering his service as consulting editor, Mrs. Basudha and Ms. N. Nanita for their selfless contribution inspite of the known fact that this is the first publication and journey is uncertain.
You may wonder the goal behind this endeavour. Let us share our thought in few lines.
We see a large void of knowledge inputs in the field of agriculture and food that cater the need of masses. There is an urgent need to bridge the widening gap existing between mass and elite. Unless knowledge developed in the universities are not disseminated and reached the farmers and stakeholders, money invested is simply a waste. Different approaches must be applied. We sincerely believe that by launching AgriManipur, we are moving in right direction.
AgriManipur is a self funded project of Imphal based Society for Agriculture, Food and Innovation (SAFI) and, of course, a very-close-to-heart and first one. It will be published three times a year in October, February and July. We aspire to extend further by increasing the frequency and the number of languages. We understand english may limits its spread but, by people's and God wish, AgrManipur in Manipuri may not be a far dream. Other languges like Tangkhul, Kuki, etc will be followed.
It is also our strong desire to improve the content and relevance and make it more impactful. This can only be realised through your support. Constructive suggestions are always welcome.
AgriManipur will be formally launched in a small function at Sadu Koireng, Sardar Hills, Manipur in coincidence with the World Food Day on 16th October (IST) as a mark of our commitment to revolutionise the agricultural systems. Soft copy comes to you first!
We hope everyone will enjoy reading. Please feel free to forward this mail.
