Preview KVK's – "Krishi Vigyan Kendra, for the Kamrup district of Assam was sanctioned in the year 2001 as a re-mandated KVK under Innovations in Technology Dissemination (ITD) component of NATP. A plot of 10 ha of land within the existing Horticultural Research Station (HRS) of Assam Agricultural University was given for the purpose of establishing the KVK in the year 2004. However, the actual work started from the year 2005 with facilities shared by HRS in terms of office space, hostel, etc. Initially, there were only 3 staff and the remaining staffs excepting one (Fishery SMS) were recruited from the year 2008. The new office building of the KVK was inaugurated on 5th March 2014 by Sri Nilamoni Sen Deka, Hon'ble Agricultural Minister, Govt of Assam in the presence of Dr. K. M. Bujarbaruah, Hon'ble Vice-Chancellor, AAU and other dignitaries. The KVK continues to work in close collaboration with the HRS specially in terms of horticultural technologies and is adequately backed by the university with seeds of released varieties and packages.
