RAWE stands for Rural Agricultural Work Experience, which is a program aimed at providing quality, practical, and production-oriented education for agriculture degrees. The program is designed to prepare agricultural graduates for better careers in agriculture and agribusiness, as well as equip them with the skills and knowledge to face the challenges of the agricultural sector.
The objectives of RAWE include:
Understanding rural life and the socio-economic situation of villagesFamiliarity with the challenges and opportunities faced by farmersOpportunity for practical training and hands-on experienceDevelopment of communication skills in transfer
Through RAWE, students gain a deeper understanding of the rural situations, status of agricultural technologies adopted by farmers, and prioritize the farmer’s problems. This program helps students develop skills and attitudes necessary for working with farm families and contributing to the overall development of rural areas.
Commercial mushroom production in India began in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The formal initiation of commercial mushroom cultivation can be attributed to the efforts of the Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR), particularly through the Directorate of Mushroom Research (DMR) in Solan, Himachal Pradesh. The DMR played a crucial role in introducing and popularizing mushroom cultivation techniques among farmers and entrepreneurs.
One of the key milestones in the commercialization of mushroom production in India was the establishment of the National Mushroom Development and Extension Center (NMDEC) in Solan in 1983. NMDEC played a significant role in promoting mushroom cultivation as a viable agribusiness venture through research, training, and extension activities.
Since then, commercial mushroom cultivation has witnessed significant growth in India, with the emergence of numerous private enterprises, government initiatives, and research institutions dedicated to promoting and supporting the mushroom industry.
