“My name is Netrananda Bag, village Mahul Pada. Traditionally, we dry moong, masoor, and chana seeds in the sun for four to five days. We also dry neem leaves. Then we mix them all together, tie them up completely, and store them, and sow these seeds the next year.”
“ମୋର ନାମ ନେତ୍ରାନନ୍ଦ ବାଗ ଗ୍ରାମ ମହୁଲ ପଡା ଆମେ ପାରମ୍ପାରିକ ହିସାବରେ ମୁଗ, ମୁଶ୍ରି, ଚନା ବିହନକୁ ଖରାରେ ଚାରି ପାଞ୍ଚ ଦିନ ଶୁଖେଇ ଥାଉ ଲିମ୍ୱ ପତ୍ରକୁ ମଧ୍ୟ ଶୁଖେଇ ଥାଉ , ତାପରେ ମିଶ୍ରଣ କରି ପୁରା ବାନ୍ଧି ରଖି ଥାଉ ଓ ଆର ବର୍ଷ ବିହନକୁ ବୁନି ଥାଉ ।”
