Introduction
Telangana Rythu Vignana Kendras (TRVKs)
Believing that every research scientist should also serve farmers directly, the University actively engages with the farming community through regular farmer-scientist interactions and field visits. To enhance this outreach, the University established 23 Telangana Rythu Vignana Kendras (TRVKs). Each centre has experts in crop production, crop protection and technology transfer. These centres act as ambassadors of PJTAU, promoting improved agricultural technologies, new crop varieties and practical solutions for farmers. Their efforts have earned wide appreciation from the farming community.
