Doing Farming for
Survival//Sustainable living
Farming
India is an agricultural country - more than 50% of the country’s workforce is employed in agriculture.
From feudal times, we have always been a community that values the land, it is our biggest treasure and many have unique relationship with the land, their families have been farming the same land for generations often caring for it more than they care for their own health, working outside under the scorching sun to ensure the best harvest and one of the first lessons they learnt was to do it sustainably.
​
When you take a walk through the countryside, you will see people earnestly working on their fields from the dawn to dusk, often manually weeding rows of crops like maize or paddy, or carefully planting, groundnuts, millets, and other indigenous vegetables like brinjal, ladies' fingers on some plots, while sowing fodder crops over other parts for animals. Every sq.ft of their land is utilized for producing food for their families and their animals, and these very animals provide the waste used to make sustainable manure that is not harsh on the land unlike chemical fertilizers.
​
While we need to supply increasing amounts of food to growing populations at low prices, it is also clear that it cannot be achieved in the highly industrial and damaging manner it has been doing in the last few decades as we have increasing evidence that this has led to soil degradation and environmental pollution that affects the health of many even if they did not live near the affected areas.
