Dear CVR Murti, Currently, we do not have Telugu service available for Question Box. There is a good agricultural information service run by OneWorld asia called LifeLines. It only operates in 4 states - Himachal Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh. However, you might try calling them and asking for the hotline's number anyhow. Their main office number is (0) 11 41689000 If you would like to communicate further with us at Question Box, please visit the Contact Us page on our website. Best wishes, Rose Shuman Thank you Gerald for this wonderful article.
