The land of Bihar is fertile, and the farmers here like hard work. They produce a variety of crops from the earth’s lap. Although they produce well by accepting modern agriculture quickly, they regret that they do not get the right market. Jitendra Singh is such a progressive farmer in Bihar and has been successful in the field of agriculture for the past two to three years. But in the absence of a market, they are forced to sell their products at the price of throwing their products. However, they send drumstick’s dry leaves, which is not only because they are earning the income of nearby farmers.
Jitendra Singh, who lives in the village of Jatopur in Bihia constituency in Bhojpur district, has been cultivating potatoes, banana, dragon fruits and vegetables on 150 acres of land for the past three years. In the last few years, he believes that Bihar has improved a lot of agricultural production, but farmers are still financially weak as they do not get a fair price.

Jitendra returns from Kolkata during the Kovit locking
Farmer Jitendra Singh says his education and business is everything in Kolkata. But when a large number of people returned to the locked village, they thought how to connect the people in the village. Thinking here, he returned to the village and decided to adopt agriculture as a business. He first began to cultivate the dragon fruit and then gradually cultivate vegetables and other crops. Today they are cultivating various crops through a farmer group on more than 150 acres. He works in providing the best markets for products.
Earning farmers with drumstick leaves, seeds and flowers
According to Jitendra Singh, it has been only three years since he came to agriculture, but during this period he discovered a market for dried leaves in the United States. Now they are also encouraging the farmers around their village to cultivate drumsticks. Today, other than them, other farmers of the village cultivate drumsticks on about 40 acres of land. Jitendra Singh buys leaves, flowers and seeds in these farmers and the United States, and only drought leaves sell for Rs 400 to 600 per kg. They say that any farmer can contact them to sell drumstick leaves, flowers or seeds.
Success in Murugaikai, but other crops are not the market
On the one hand, Jitendra Singh is earning well by sending the drought of the drought to the United States, and on the other hand, the seed -free cucumber -grown cucumber in the Set Net House does not get a buyer for Rs 10 per kg. Its price in cities is more than Rs.40-50 per kg. They are forced to sell him for 10 rupees. Similarly, no one is going to buy Neekant potatoes grown on 60 acres.
They say that the government is raising awareness of drip irrigation (micro -irrigation), as well as to improve the state’s products and provide them with better markets. Otherwise, despite production, the Bihar farmer will be poor. In addition, the government will have to work with a variety of crops, such as a pack house, with dryer equipment.
