Commercial Bank of Ceylon has embarked on an ambitious mission to propagate technology in the agriculture sector, encompassing all areas of agricultural potential in the country.

The first village to be ‘adopted’ under the pilot project of the programme was Mahilankadu in Kilinochchi, in collaboration with the University of Jaffna and Agriculture Department in Kilinochchi.

This first Agri Modernisation Village was recently introduced to transplanting paddy seedlings using mechanised technology as the first demonstration of the programme.
