On 6 October 1971, Afghanistan opened new agricultural extension training centers to assist farmers with modern cultivation methods. The centers offered instruction in soil management, fertilizer use, irrigation scheduling, and crop rotation.

The centers strengthened agricultural knowledge across rural communities.
