Recognition & Accolades
Achievements & Honours 18 Honours
Successfully designed and landscaped a Model Garden of Medicinal & Aromatic Plants (Area: 221 sq m; Plant spp: 100) in the KVK Farm, Golaghat, AAU, Khumatai-785 619 in the year 2014
Successfully designed a Modified SRI Roller Marker which had been exhibited in various exhibitions including the North-East Regional Agriculture Fair held at AAU, Khanapara campus on Feb 10th to 12th, January 2012. The device is considerably effective, gives long-lasting grid marks (up to 6-7 days, if there is no rain while in conventional marks remain for about 1.5 d ); user-friendly (for both women and men); time-saving; fairly light and comfortable size (dimension: ................................................) that makes easy carrying/handling in the puddled paddy field.
Successfully designed a low-cost device: Bamboo Transplanting Grid for both SRI and Conventional rice seedlings
