Thursday, 28 October 2021 | Staff Reporter | Bhopal

Bank of Baroda, is celebrating the fourth edition of ‘Baroda Kisan Pakhwada’ which is being organised from October 16 to 31, 2021. This event is earmarked to appreciate the spirit and vigour of the farming community for their contribution towards sustaining the economy during the pandemic and for the development of the country.

‘Baroda Kisan Pakhwada’ is a pan-India initiative to encourage farmers to get connected with the services offered by the Government and the Bank. Last year over 12164 farmers were benefitted by various outreach programmes conducted by our bank in Mp & CG. This year the Bank has focused on organizing similar  programmes  in virtual / physical mode for the benefit of farmers at large. This year, the Bank will also include promotion of new schemes under Aatmanirbhar Bharat Abhiyan.

Bank also launched 'Centre for Agriculture Marketing and Processing (CAMP)', its new centralized agri-loans processing units in Bhopal. The CAMP is a dedicated credit delivery model with a focus on financing non-traditional agricultural products and handling agri-marketing activities. The CAMP consists of trained manpower with understanding and exposure to handle high value credit accounts. Bank will also promote collaborations with local organisations for sourcing quality business. 

Speaking on the occasion, Girish C Dalakoti, Zonal Head Bhopal, told media persons, “Bank of Baroda has been organizing Baroda Kisan Pakhwada since 2018 to reach out and lend support to the farmers of our country, in recognition of their immense contribution to India's economic progress through the decades. Another key objective of this initiative is to enhance the financial literacy among the farmers and encourage them to adopt modern technology & best practices, for better productivity.
