'Farming is Profitable' says our today's guest Mr. Ashok Kumar. Talking on the topic whether we should show sympathy towards farmers, he said farming can be more profitable than any other industries. He quoted a papaya farmer who became a millioneer within a span of year with just one acre of land.
He enlightened the students about various farming techniques like subsistent, intensive, extensive and commercial farming.
Highlighting the importance of food safety, he cited the example of Bengal famine which caused the death of 30 lakh civilians and led to the establishment of Food Corporation of India by central govt. He said FCI godowns store enough food supplies that can meet the needs of people for 3 years even if droughts and famines disturb us.
He guided the students on different courses that could be pursued to get jobs in agricultural sector. At this juncture he highlighted how skill development surpasses gaining knowledge.
His famous quote 'farming is healthy, wealthy and flexible' grabbled the students' attention. His 1 1/2-hour speech was well-received by grade 8 and 9 students.
As a token of thanks, he was given a memento and a book bouquet.
