Kullu Launches New Apple Disease Prevention Scheme

The Kullu Horticulture Department has introduced a new scheme to combat prevalent diseases affecting apple orchards across the district. Launched in early June, the initiative provides subsidized fungicides and expert guidance to farmers, aiming to protect the region's primary cash crop from significant losses. This proactive measure is crucial for sustaining the livelihoods of thousands of apple growers and ensuring a healthy harvest in the upcoming season.
