Yes there are ...Hi Rashmi, Thanks for your support. Yes there are many who doesn't support my decision(most of them care for me dearly) and there's a point in their argument. All we have seen/heard is farmers are poor! Our political leadership want them that way. The day farmer feel proud about his/her contribution they will get the self confidence. If you look at the way our commodity market is operated there are millions who make money using these commodities but the producer of those commodities remains to be poor even after generations of hard work!<br /><br />Frankly even though one might feel my decision is rare, after landing in this field I realize there are 1000s of them who have already made those decisions long back and striving hard to change the way things are done in farming!<br /><br />Sorry wasn't checking this for a while hence the delayMadhuIyengarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16686032785572161769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7093104824712612740.post-82192382669645047542014-01-02T00:29:41.316-08:002014-01-02T00:29:41.316-08:00Wow!!!

The returning-to-become-a-farmer thing is very unconventional in the current materialistic world and thus many people will question your decision and not trust it either. But the important thing is to believe in what your heart says and pursue it.<br /> <br />Please be updating all our ignorant brains about good farming and someone might just change their minds. <br /><br />Just a passing thought....Why don't you start a part-time training/teaching sessions to all the other farmers in the area who are stuck with traditional and ignorant ways of farming.(something our government lacks the will to do).?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11473516431237763523noreply@blogger.com
