Hubli (Karnataka), Dec 31 (ANI): With millets finding a regular place in Indian households, and amid a blooming health-conscious society, the Department of Agriculture organised an exhibition-cum-mela emphasising the need for dryland farming and millet cultivation. Excessive use of chemicals in conventional farming had led to an increase in toxicity of food and subsequent reduction in nutritional values. Thus, there is an emerging need of promoting organic form of cultivation. Multiple stalls selling various forms of millets and organic produce have been set up at the mela.
