I have been hearing from my childhood that plowing can be eaten. This statement took root in my mind. So I did nothing but agriculture since my childhood. Don't leave the plow. It feels the same now. Farming and plowing are the ideals of my life. I now live in Rapti Rural Municipality-5 Kalapani. I am 52 years old but I work regularly in the fields.

In the beginning, I lived in a place called Kola in Banglachuli Rural Municipality . After migrating from there, I came down to Kalapani in 2045. Even after going down to the plains, I did farming . I have never done any wage-wage job. I didn't believe in others except the plow. 

He spent his life doing his own farming . I am still eating the fruits of that action. Farming is the main means of running my household. Appreciating the same work, this year Creative Possibilities Nepal and Rapti Rural Municipality awarded and honored me as the best farmer of the rural municipality.

is not cultivated to receive such an award. It has now been realized that working in one's own tune will be appreciated. The saying that you get results after doing deeds is also true . I didn't get to spend much time at school. I have read to know the letter . I have studied only 4th grade but with experience I can argue with people who are educated. 

I am very interested in the country's politics and agriculture. Will keep talking about it . I can also make some comments about agriculture and economy of Nepal . Agriculture must be done to strengthen the country's economy. Nepal has a lot of potential in agriculture. Agriculture is the work of hardworking people. A person who cannot work hard cannot progress in this profession, cannot even last. 

should also know how to do agriculture . Agriculture is not a profession for the ignorant and lazy. It requires knowledge and effort. It should only be done knowing when and what kind of cultivation. Cultivation should be done by looking at the market demand . You have to keep working continuously. I have experienced that it is more difficult to finance work than to do

work . It is not difficult to work, but it is difficult to convert it into money. It is difficult for us to compete with agricultural products coming from foreign countries . Agricultural products are coming from India cheaper than ours. So we are finding it difficult to monetize our product .

I originally cultivated radish . Now, according to the season, I cultivate vegetables such as tomatoes, lamb chillies, bitter gourds, okra, cucumbers, gourds and beans. Annual income is more than 3 lakhs from this . There is not only suffering in agriculture, if you know, there is also good income . I earned from agriculture and added 1 katha 6 dhur land . I am farming by renting 12 katta land .

I save some from the money I earn and spend on household expenses . And from that I will do more work in agriculture, I will increase investment . Vegetables are more beneficial than other crops. There will be cash transactions and the demand in the market is also high for vegetables. You should know which vegetables are in demand at what time. If you know how to farm according to demand, you can earn good income.

I have raised 3 buffaloes and 6 goats along with vegetables . I sell 3 liters of milk daily. I didn't give up buffalo and vegetable farming because by rearing buffaloes, vegetables also get manure, milk can be consumed and sold. Even though life is spent with buffaloes and mud, I am satisfied . No regrets. I was in normal condition. Even now, life is going on normally.

Menuka and Miley Vasanthi, the eldest of my three daughters, got married after completing 12th grade. Younger Anu is studying degree . Bhanu, the only son, went to Malaysia for employment after completing his 12th standard . Mrs. Lalmaya and I farm with some laborers . There are three regular workers . Those who work in vegetable farming .

Now I have a plan to prepare more vegetable seeds by making a plastic tunnel with the 25,000 rupees received. I invest the money I earn from agriculture in agriculture . Life was spent in agriculture. Now this will be done as long as possible. Investment will also be made in agriculture. I want to do model works in agriculture . I want to spend my life with the plough. Presentation: Durgalal KC
