Agri FM radio

Ministry of Information and Communications secretary Sushil Ghimire on Thursday inspected the `Agriculture Radio 105 MHz' at Dharke Bazaar, Kebalpur VDC-1, in Dhading district. The FM radio broadcasts only programmes on agriculture-related activities in the district. Local farmers work as radio reporters. The FM is operated by Dhunibesi Community Agriculture Communications Centre. Sixty per cent of the operation cost of the FM station is borne by a local cooperative. Agriculture Radio 105 MHz airs its programmes from 5 am to 11 am and 4 pm to 10 pm everyday.
