The distribution is facilitated by Agricultural Technology Management Agency (ATMA) officials and Mobile Soil Testing Laboratories (MSTL). Training and advisories are provided to farmers, with a focus on soil health management. The state has also achieved NABL recognition for 36 static labs to ensure accurate soil testing, and a digital portal has been established for soil health card generation.
