These CoEs serve as hubs for training and technology dissemination, collaborating with countries like Israel, Netherlands, and New Zealand. A total of 58 CoEs have been approved across various states, focusing on modern agricultural practices and knowledge transfer to farmers and entrepreneurs. However, there are no plans for a CoE in Mangaluru, Karnataka.
