INTRODUCTION
Prior to implementing any development program in an area, ground information is critical.
Hence Tikina Profile was initiated to provide alternative source of information [Long drought - Agriculture Census]
The concept paper for the Tikina Profile was endorsed by management in December 2003 and work started in 2004.
Ministry mandated Extension Division to conduct and implement the community profile activities.
