Usha I too have seen many senior people who work in the farms so healthy and fit even in their late eighties and nineties. The best example I can give of such truly fit people is the hundreds and hundreds of simple peasant folks who are currently walking the holy pilgrimage of Vari from Pune to Pandharpur. These are all mostly farmers who have finished sowing their fields and are taking a respite of 15-16 days for Vari. Many of these people belong to ages between 70 and 90 years , some even beyond 90. This walk is not at all easy, the distance is almost 210 kilometres, it keeps raining incessantly and they have to climb up and down several steep ghats in the Sahyadri ranges. These people never have seen an inside of a gym, and hardly ever visit a doctor!

usha manohar replied to the topic This is how things work in Switzerland ...
Coming back to the topic ..There has been some controversy about the latest happenings in Switzerland where 2 Muslim girls were denied citizenship because they failed to integrate into the norms of their society. If such a thing had happened in India I am sure the political classes woul go up in arms for sure !

usha manohar replied to the topic Seventh pay commisson.
With the increasing levels of inflation , the pay hike has to be done from time to time and it was being done. In fact from what I remember they did have a hike 2 years back which increased the pay-scale quite a bit and this new one is a very welcome move to all government employees, especially the pensioners !

Robust and reliable Irrigation Policy and Electrification.
Insurance against Crop failure that is supported by the Government, and easy access to funds via Bank accounts to save them from local money lenders. If these policies are not implemented, there wont be any reduction in Farmer suicides.
Mode of assessment of crop losses is not fair. So at present crop insurance is help ful to farmers. Sikkim is a organic states. There farmers are not using pestisides or modified seeds. They are producing seed in their fields. Farmers of other state must be follow them and adopt zero cost farming.
You are right. Zero cost Farming involves very less expenditure for all the crops. In this type of Farming, nothing has to be purchased from outside. Because all things required for the growth of the plant are available around the Root Zone of the Plant. This system was started by Subhash Palekar. Zero cost natural farming is less expensive. In case of crop failure due to absence of Monsoon, the farmer will not lose much financially.

rambabu replied to the topic Can development happen at the cost of rich agriculture?.
While constructing a new city some agricultural land will be lost. To look after this aspect Ministry of Environment is there. It's duty is to check rich Agricultural is not lost in the name of development. Which is why any new Construction is required to obtain the clearance from the Environment ministry. The Ministry has to be convinced that, after the construction, the lost agricultural land is restored .
The Ministry works on the principle, " What is taken from the Nature has to be given back".

rambabu replied to the topic Changes in Boddunan.
A real change in my view is to bringing back all or some earning features in this site, that were once there. Additionally, the remuneration has to be hiked. It's only then, the site attracts members especially new members. One cannot miss, how the number of new members is increasing. This has to noted and considered by the Administrator and do the needful.
