Krishi Vigyan Kendra ( KVK ) is a noble concept developed by Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) which was rest upon a solid base of transfer of tehnology from laboratory to farmer's field with respect to Agriculture, Horticulture, Animal Husbandary, Flouriculture. Bee keeping, mushroom Cultivation, Broiler Farming and allied subjects. As per the recommendations of Mohan Singh Meheta Committee during 1974, K.V.K.s were established in difereent states. Gradually working guidelines are prepared to make the K.V.K. as the light house for the rural people.

Indian Council of Agricultural Research emphasized on the research on agriculture and allied subject during 1960's to generate new technology for increasing crop production in different agroclimatic zones of the country. A lot of technologies were generated through constant effort of the scientists to boost up the production. But the technologies so generated in the research field are not transferred through extension agencies of different state Government. It is observed that a lot of technologies could not reach the farmer due to high cost of adoption, lack of the interest of the extension agencies. Hence the transfer of the technology was not complete and effective. Later on K.V.Ks were established for easy and active participation of farmers through Front Line Demonstration and on Farm Testing.

As per the mandate of Indian Council of Agricultural Research, K.V.K. will operate under the administrative control of State Agricultural University (SAU) or Central Institute situated in a particular area.
