MY LEARNING-

application.
 Chemical is chemical it do not differentiate between
plant & human body(epidermal absorption)
 Cover entire body while application.
 We need to promote protection of farmer through apprael
& protection kit.
 To open the seal of bottle instead of using key or
anything else use needle like shape which is already
upside the cap so use it for opening.
 Use steel nozzles instead of plastic nozzles as it is not
good for long time the size of hole increases after every
use. Due to which rate of spraying also change.
 Drone technology for pesticide spraying
 Bayer has 25 drone in market which they provide at
Rs400 price/acre .
 Benefit over the traditional way it is very tough to move
in muddy field with heavy spray tank which get solve by
drone.

17. INTERACTION WITH FARMERS
PROBLEMS OF FARMERS-
 Problem of rainfall
 Problem of Water (only some have
tubewell).
 High problem of Nilgay. In the present
government the no of cowshed has
increased because of that people are
releasing their cattle to nearby field
which destruct the crops of farmers.

18.  In my area Varanasi people generally
grow two crops Wheat & Rice mainly.
 Fragmented land
 Lack of information.
 Not getting enough price for their
produce.
 Not have any storage facilities for
perishable crops once harvested have
to sell at low price.
 Some of the cooperatives are there
but still it is not functioning as per
rule there leader win by money & sell
their own people crops & small
farmer face the problems.

19. SOLUTION
 Fencing wire & border crop can
help in protecting from cattles.
 For Water Problem Groups of 4-5
near farmer can together set a
tubewell in their field this will
help all of them.
 For storage they can ask from
their Village Pradhan for space &
money. They can create small
storage together.
 For better price they can sell their
produce in groups on whom they
can trust.
 To be aware about various govt
schemes and subsidies .
