Taravadi rice goes to half a dozen countries for sale. Vikas Chaudhary is a 40-year-old progressive farmer here. Educated till BA, Vikas started farming with his father only after the tenth. He has 35 acres of land.

In 2011, the central government had put up a project on climate-smart farming at Vikas Chaudhary’s farm 2011, in which four students of Haryana Agricultural University, Hisar, and a student of Japan also did a Ph.D.

Five youths have done Ph.D. in farming in Vikas Chaudhary’s farm under Climate-Smart Project
According to Vikas Chaudhary, I have been doing farming since 1996. I see all the work myself I remember well, then the farmers used to raise the demand for the price of their crops according to the international market.
Today the government has given this facility to the farmers. He can sell his crop anywhere, anytime, and at any rate. They have the freedom to take their crop anywhere. There is the freedom to store.
There is no tax in moving the crop from one place to another, says Vikas. If the farmers want to increase their income, they should make their own FPO (Farmer Producer Organization).
If someone does not want to make it, he can join another FPO. The farmer has options to sell the crop according to his choice and desire.
Vikas Chaudhary further says, the central and state governments gave KCC (Kisan Credit Card) to the farmers. Their interest is five to seven percent per annum.
But by withdrawing this money, most of the farmers provided cars to their sons, relatives, and daughters. Got bullets and cars. Sent them abroad. This money was not used properly. Then what is repentance.
