Govt All Set To Introduce Oil Palm Cultivation In DK, Udupi
17/02/2012 (Deccan Herald) - The Central and State government is all set to introduce oil palm cultivation in Dakshina Kannada and Udupi districts as an alternate to areca crops which are hit with yellow leaf and root grub diseases. However, the farmers in the districts do not seem to be keen in adopting oil palm cultivation in spite of the generous packages offered by the government.
