HET and ICAR signed an MoU in August 2022 to hold the summit from January 12-13 to help over 2,00,000 students studying agriculture in India to utilise the resources from HET.

The students are expected to gain insights into the Heartfulness facility as well at Kanha Shanti Vanam through their tissue culture lab, bio charcoal projects, and hydroponics, among others for exploration.

The visit at the summit also carries course credits (2 credit courses for 30 hours) and the attendance is, therefore, counted.
