It is a model Knowledge Park being set up by SAMBANDH over 35 acres of land at Choudwar in Cuttack district. The park is a multi-ferrous activity centre. ASIANA Nursery strives to preserve & propagate various indigenous medicinal & horticultural plants. With the growing popularity of herbal medicines the need of a dedicated nursery specially catering to the medicinal plants was long felt. ASIANA nursery is a step in this direction. Apart from the nursery, it also houses a training centre to provide training on various subjects. The training centre can accommodate about 75 persons with all facilities available for imparting proper training on both theoretical aspects as well as on practical aspects by field demonstration on various agro-practices. Close proximity to agricultural fields makes it an ideal place for training on all aspects of organic farming. Besides these two flagship formats ASIANA Complex has been developed as model center, where in most of the modern agro practices has been demonstrated.
