Srinagar: Senior Vice President of Awami National Conference Muzaffar Shah, while commenting on the announcement by the Lieutenant Governor to give houses to two and a half lakh homeless families in Jammu Kashmir, said that according to the Parliament, only 19 thousand people are homeless in Jammu Kashmir. To whom are the remaining houses being given?

Muzaffar Shah said that if only 19,000 families are homeless in Jammu and Kashmir, then to whom are the remaining houses being given? He said that some more families may have increased in the last two years, but the people of Jammu and Kashmir have doubts about the number of 250,000. While saying that only the Pashtun residents of Jammu and Kashmir should be provided with houses. Shah said that people are in doubt in this matter and want the government to remove this doubt. Muzaffar Shah said that Article 370 has not been completely abolished in Jammu and Kashmir, but the matter is still in the court, so the authorities should not take such decisions which are not within their jurisdiction, but the people's government should take their decisions.

Ferula asafoetida-Heeng cultivation: Untapped agri-preneurship opportunity in Kashmir
The resin-like gum comes from the dried sap extracted from the stem and roots and is used as a spice. The resin is greyish-white when fresh, but dries to a dark amber colour. Today, the most commonly available form is compounded asafoetida, a fine powder containing 30 percent asafoetida resin, along with starch of rice flour and gum Arabic.
Asafetida requires full sun. Sow seeds in fall or early spring directly into prepared beds. Germination is improved by exposure to cold, moist conditions. Sow seeds on the surface of the soil with a lightly tamped layer of sand over them. Space seeds 2 feet apart and keep moderately moist until germination. Thereafter, water when soil is dry to the touch several inches down.
This spice is used as a digestive aid, in food as a condiment, and in pickling. It typically works as a flavour enhancer and used along with turmeric, is a standard component of Indian cuisine, particularly in lentil curries such as dal, as well as in numerous vegetable dishes.
There is no such reliable information on area under Asafoetida and the quantity produced. Central Asia is also source of asafoetida but Afghanistan and Iran are the major producers in this region. Asafoetida is native to central Asia, eastern Iran to Afghanistan, where it grows from 600 to 1200 m above the sea level. Jammu and Kashmir and Himachal is also an emerging states, where there is a huge scope of cultivating this spice at large extent.
Despite not being a producer of Asafoetida (Hing), India consumes 40 percent of world's total production each year. So far Hing is produced only in Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, Baluchistan, Iran and Iraq. India imports near about 1000-1200 MT of asafoetida annually. During 2015-16, India imported 1199 MT of asafoetida valued at Rs 527.42 crores. After processing the raw product, India exported 885 MT of asafoetida valued at Rs 46.27 crores during the same period.
The role of Asafoetida in crop protection technique came into limelight when a farmer namely K Chellamuthu, at Kodumudi village, Erode, Tamil Nadu, came under a lot of criticism from experts, when he developed a herbal spray for control of eriophyd mite in coconut trees.
He started experimenting asafoetida's effect on paddy, sesame seeds, ground nut, tomato, brinjal and other crops and found that the yield increased and the plants were healthy.
Jammu and Kashmir, Uttarakhand and Himachal Pradesh have the same cold desert type of climatic conditions that are found in Iran, Afghanistan and Turkey and are necessary for its cultivation. India consumes around 40 percent of total production of asafoetida worldwide as these provides an edge and scope of farming of this spice and tap the Indian market by the internal import burden from the various foreign countries.
This crop has a tremendous scope and viable potential in Jammu and Kashmir as because of its nature of commerciality and demand for the same at domestic as well as international level. This spice or crop is the only spice in World that favours the climatic and soil nutrient nature of Jammu and Kashmir at large extent, although being a ignorant crop at both at lab as well as at land, it is its brand image in terms of medicinal value that somehow has earthed roots at global level. This, we at state level have to work on in order to cultivate this spice at large level so to grab both domestic as well as international market at large extent, thus helping in doubling farmers income as well as economy of state and country as well.
