Mohan Prakash, a 59-year-old farmer from Supaul district in Bihar, has proven that success in farming does not depend on degrees or qualifications. With proper planning and knowledge, anyone can achieve success in agriculture at any age. Mohan Prakash started his new journey in farming at the age of 57 and within just two years, his annual income reached up to 15 lakh rupees. His success has inspired other farmers to consider adopting his techniques.
Change in mindset after connecting with spirituality
Umesh Mehta, a resident of Laxminia Ward-12 in Hardi East Panchayat of Sadar block in Supaul district, reveals that he has only studied until the eighth grade. However, this has not hindered his farming abilities. He used to practice traditional farming on just two acres of land, which barely yielded any profit. Then, in 2021, he joined the Agricultural Technology Management Agency (ATMA) to improve his farming techniques. He underwent training in places like Patna and Karnal, Haryana to enhance his farming skills. After that, he started cultivating vegetables on 16 acres of land.
Not dependent on a single market
He states that for the past two years, he has been growing only seasonal vegetables, earning an annual profit of up to 15 lakh rupees. This year, he has cultivated cauliflower, cabbage, and chili on his 16-acre land near his home. He mentions that he is not dependent on a single market to sell his produce. He sells his vegetables in the market where the demand is high. This is why he sells his vegetables in markets in Supaul, Saharsa, Singheshwar, Forbesganj, and Darbhanga. His success story has encouraged other farmers to adopt similar farming techniques.
