Sowing Seeds of Change : The Organic Farming Journey of Subal Roy
Subal Roy, a 57-year-old farmer from West Bengal, has spent the last 30 years cultivating his land. For decades, he relied on traditional farming methods, unaware of the potential benefits of organic farming. Everything changed when Bharatiya Jana Seva Mission reached out to him, recognizing his dedication and hard work.
Through the initiative, Subal was introduced to the principles of organic farming. The Mission provided him with organic manure and comprehensive training to help him transition from chemical-based agriculture to a more sustainable and eco-friendly approach. With perseverance and support, Subal gradually converted his entire 5-acre cultivation area to organic farming.
Today, Subal successfully grows potatoes and various vegetables using organic methods. His farm not only yields healthy produce but also serves as an inspiration to other farmers in the region. Subal’s commitment to sustainable agriculture has created a ripple effect in his community, encouraging others to explore organic farming.
Subal Roy’s story is a testament to the positive impact that knowledge, resources, and support can have on the lives of farmers. Bharatiya Jana Seva Mission is proud to have played a role in this transformation, empowering Subal to lead by example and inspire others to embrace organic farming for a better future.
