Hi members,
I am extremely new to this and joined this forum as I will be starting in farming from the next month. I have given one month to prepare for all the things before diving into full scale.
I am from Raebareily area in Uttar Pradesh and the almost 95% of the farmers only grow wheat and paddy and there are only 2 crops in an year.
Irrigation facility is good as there is canal going through the village and there is also ample rain. Most of my farms are besides the canal.
We have about 4.5 hectares of land but most of the land is divided and is about 0.5-0.7 hectares and 1 chak is about 1.2 hectares where I want to start experimenting with as it’s mostly given to other farmers on lease.
I am looking for cash crops and vegertables. There is not much issue of money as I earn enough from my side job and labour is also available in the village.
The advice I am looking for is where to start and explore. What would you do if you are given this piece of land and how to move forward?
I can explore and look more but I need to find where and what to look.
Thanks for this community.
Ashutosh
