They will be urged to tell their success stories and tell Punjab farmers how they may achieve large during a three-day NRI conference from May 10 to 12 at PAU, Ludhiana.

Successful NRI farmers will also be required to communicate with students, so those pursuing various agriculture-based courses may discover that agriculture is one of the key avocations even if they wish to reside abroad.

The NRIs will meet with the makers of Punjab's agricultural policy and explain their nations' farm initiatives and policies.
