KALAHANDI: In 2006 when Krushna Nag took to farming in his 2.5 acre of ancestral land at Sanchegaon village under Golamunda block of Kalahandi, he had to face the dual problem of drought and hard soil.
Today, he makes a profit of Rs 18 lakh per annum from the same land, thanks to crop diversification - shifting from paddy farming to horticulture, pisciculture and livestock rearing.
The journey in over the last decade has not been an easy one, said the 48-year-old progressive farmer.
“It was correct use of farming technologies, government schemes, water and fertilisers that changed my fate in this drought-prone area”, he added.
