District Agriculture Development Office (DADO) Kaski organized Organic Agriculture Discussion Forum in Pokhara with stakeholders working to promote Organic production. Program called out 35 farmers actively engaged in organic farming, concerned officers, organic entrepreneurs and reporters. This program framed the path on how organic agriculture and farmers can be promoted in days to come? Source person from Regional Agriculture Directorate, Regional Plant Protection Laboratory and DADO Kaski presented on "Organic Agriculture, What, Why and How? ", "Status, Scope and Challenges of Organic Agriculture in Kaski District" and "Organic Manure and Bio-pesticide for organic agriculture".

Interpretations of objective of program were done by Senior Agriculture Development Officer (SADO) of DADO. The main objective of the program was to solve challenges faced by farmers bring them together on common ground along with concerned stakeholders. Also it focused on increasing organic farmers and production. Along with the presentations by guest, farmers put forward the problem faced by them and panelist tried for the solution to the problems and how Kaski can be made independent in Organic production. As a remembrance, Pokhara is famous tourist spot in World where people love to eat organic and healthy foods.

Also, program ended with a decision to call out more number of farmers to form farmer group and unite all stakeholders and activities doe by different national and international organizations. The program was coordinated by Stuti Acharya and emceed by myself.
