He further said that almost 300,000 families in the country carry out cotton farming based on only inherited knowledge, and hence it is necessary to train these farmers to update them about the new developments, mainly on the side of technology.

It is also important because farmers were severely impacted by a fall in cotton prices from 15 meticals per kg to 10 meticals per kg during the last season, he added.
