If the government pays attention to the upliftment of farmers, significant improvements can be made not only in the household but also in the rural economy.
Most of the rivers and streams flowing from north to south are wasting water, but the farmers have not been able to benefit because the government has not made a proper plan for irrigation facilities and marketing of agricultural produce. However, in some places, the legacy of a particular person can be found to be an inspiration to others.
In this context, the news titled 'Fertile Kalegaon Paurkhi Kisan' must have attracted the attention of government officials and farmers. The news is related to the economically backward district of Jajarkot. The farmers of Kalegaon, which is 5 km east of the headquarters, are earning handsome income by cultivating seasonal and off-season vegetables, and gradually motivating everyone in the village should be considered exemplary. Kalegaon in Bheri Municipality 1 is fertile, there is no problem of irrigation as it is located on the banks of Bheri River and the produced vegetables are transported daily to the district headquarters, Surkhet, Rukum West, Salyan, Dolpa. Sadhana Pun, a local farmer, earns up to 3 lakh rupees a year by cultivating vegetables on 8 ropani land, while Savin KC, who started vegetable farming after 6 years of foreign employment, also earns the same amount. As the income is increasing gradually, other farmers do not have to be disappointed from vegetable farming.
Actually Kalegaon is at an altitude of 720 meters above the sea level, so all twelve months are suitable for vegetable cultivation, while the demand for vegetables is increasing, the farmers are confident. Sadly, for years, Indian farmers have come to the banks of rivers and streams in Kailali Kanchanpur and have earned considerable income from vegetable farming, but the responsible officials of the state government sit idly by. No one felt the need to spread this technology elsewhere. Now the reference of Kalegaon located on the Bheri bank has become an important issue for the stakeholders. It seems necessary for the government to make a comprehensive plan to expand vegetable cultivation along the river banks from east to west and reach the national/international market.
