Purnia Farmer Learns Nepal Technique, Earns Lakhs with Ramdana Cultivation
•Satyajit Singh, a young farmer from Purnia, adopted a new farming method after traditional crops yielded low profits.
•He learned Ramdana (amaranth) cultivation techniques during a visit to Nepal, bringing seeds back to India.
•Initially, his first Ramdana crop covered costs and provided valuable learning experience.
•Now, he cultivates Ramdana on over 50 decimal fields, with the crop maturing in 75-90 days.
•Satyajit sells Ramdana at 12,000 per quintal, noting its low cost, less time, and high profit, with good market demand from local traders and sweet shop owners.
