The Naga People's Front (NPF) farmers' wing has announced a statewide inquiry tour across Nagaland to engage with local farming communities. Led by Vikheho Swu, the tour will consist of three teams covering all districts, including Tuensang and Mon. The primary objective is to identify and acknowledge successful farmers while promoting agricultural initiatives and addressing challenges such as climate change and an ageing farming population. Swu emphasized the need for younger generations to adopt climate-resilient crops and farming methods, as many are shifting towards white-collar jobs. The tour will also facilitate access to government schemes and resources for farmers, encouraging the adoption of progressive and scientific farming practices while preserving traditional systems. Reports from the tour will be submitted to the government for potential policy improvements.
