This year, the Nation Media Group organised three virtual Seeds of Gold Farm Clinics with an aim of bridging the information gap between experts and farmers. Under the Covid-19 social distancing guidelines, farmers could not access the training centres but with televised broadcasts, they have been able to learn from the comfort of their homes on NTV. All trainings have been broadcast on television and online platforms. The third virtual Seeds of Gold Farm Clinic informed farmers that costs of treating tick-borne diseases would be significantly reduced when the National Agricultural Research Organisation releases anti-tick vaccines in 2022.
