Hi all,
Dairy farming is part and parcel of whole agriculture. When one can do the agriculture, then dairy is very easy, if one wants to do only dairy then every chance of risk is must as it depends on only one source of dairy itself. But in agriculture all are integrated and inter linked to all in one for balancing failures, nature effects, marketing gamble, own mistakes, miss managements etc. If one sector is failed then can expect profit from other to balance the total loss.
If Agriculture is considered as elephant, then dairy can be a leg of elephant. Elephant can survive without one leg, but one leg cannot hold a elephant please be note.
Selection of land and wife will be once in life time decision ( 2nd tr’s are also possible in some cases) But, first of all satisfy yourself for owning the land but not on the basis of price.
You can borrow loan to buy a land which you love more as taking risk for loved one is beautiful experience in the life.
Distance from your residence to your land, Market feasibility for your products. Water and power suply for agricultural activity and labour availability etc also very important aspect to finalize to own land anywhere beware.
Importantly for small investment ameture entrants in dairy is to decide that whether they can serve it (Dairy) as their own infant kith and kin, otherwise
A work done by Labours will be worst.
A work done by your son will be ok. But,
A work done by you will be Great, because you know that how much pain you taken for it and hence you will perfectly take care of it to reach your goal.
Importantly if you will be able to be personally present in dairy, then you can expect very good returns
I have been following the topics from this forum for quite some time and its really great that the amount of information is being exchanged via this forum. Thanks & Appreciate everyone’s effort involved in this.
I have been on the lookout for an agricultural land of about 10 Acres in and around Bangalore (around 100 KMs) for some time now. Most of the places/ plots that I visited were very high priced. It is just that the owners are asking the prices as they want and the brokers are hiking the rates even more where as the prevailing plot rate is much less than the quoted price. And the best part is the plots are getting sold and the prices are just being hiked.
After all these, I thought let me get help from the local people in the villages (definitely not brokers) who can help me in getting the land. As I was going through this topic, thought some one from this forum could also help me in my venture to buy the land. I’m looking a plot of min. 10 Acres with in 100 to 150 KMs from Bangalore for a price between 1 Lac to 2 lacs. Anyone’s help in this regard is much appreciated.
Thanks
Tej
