We, who are farmers, need to ask for our children to be farmers and educate them as well. For that, we need to raise awareness. For awareness to be created, our representatives or officials need to respond to it.

Basani Basani sir, on behalf of farmers, if 'giving a girl' means 'not giving,' then farmers should have all the necessary facilities, they own land, they are working hard, they are involved in all aspects, and they are getting educated.
— Manjunatha G B
We farmers have to maintain the expenses, we have to try to earn income accordingly, we have to use all these, I am looking at how much is needed here, the farmers will not do all that, the government gives two rice.
— Bhargvi · Pandavapura, Mandya, Karnataka
Yes, yes, if I have to be a farmer, tell them I won't give permission. First, fix a proper market and price for the farmers and motivate them about the crops, then it will be beneficial for the farmers for the next developments regarding rates.
— Bhargvi
Ha hmm, what do you think? If everyone else goes to enjoy themselves, what should happen to the farmers' children? Have the cities become such without farmers? They have grown up here until now, earning lakhs of salaries, and today they say they don't want farmers' children. Okay, you didn't write it, write it down.
— Uma mahadevappa
We have come from Balli to Pandavapura, sir. Tell me, sir, what should be done for the farmers' families regarding organic farming, and what will you do to help them grow vegetables and provide fertilizers?
— Bhargvi · Pandavapura, Mandya, Karnataka
I am requesting you to speak in the legislative assembly regarding the necessity for farmers' children to first understand agriculture, and also concerning the issue where the daughters of farmer friends are not getting married.
— Ranjan
In agriculture, what we mean is that new methods should be introduced, and young people in the village should get this work. What work is available for farmers' children, mostly?
— Likith Dip · Machahalli, Mandya, Karnataka
No, have you arrived, sir? We saw someone here in Pandavapura and they sent us to Pandavapura. Ha. Farmer. First of all, the government should first give us education, quality education, meaning, everyone should be given quality education. Farmer, farmer, farmer.
— Bhargvi
That's why children must do farming now. If they do, then my opinion is that farming should be done, farming should not be neglected. That is, new people should work, new methods should be used.
— Likith Dip
Hi, we are reporting a lack of jobs and training here in our constituency. We would like agriculture, organic farming, training in our constituency.
— Srinivas Mangipudi · Arpora, Baga, North Goa
We are children of farmers. No matter how much we earn, even if it's crores, people look for IT/BT jobs, outside jobs, good clothes, and good cars. That's why they hesitate to give their daughters to farmers. This issue is not yet resolved.
— Siddappa
Sir, in our Melukote assembly constituency, in the Gram Panchayat ward and Taluk Panchayat ward, officials are not responding properly to farmers. Please rectify it properly.

A request to the honorable MLA to help farmers in the Nelakote constituency by building a sales outlet nearby for them to sell their grown crops and providing a support price.
— Uma mahadevappa · Damadahalli, Mandya, Karnataka
Farmers are not getting the right price and not getting the right information also about the market. There should be clear ways to find these out otherwise very difficult.
— Shram
Tell me, sir, what kind of help? What help did we not get? What kind of help is needed? Now, if we want to grow crops, if we want to grow vegetables, we need money. We need fertilizer. Then the entire land needs to be leveled.
— Bhargvi
Many people are reporting problems with farming. We are trying to scale them, analyze all the feedback and determine the overall sentiment.
— beardcoded · Pandavapura, Mandya, Karnataka
We should give more priority to organic farming. We should stop using chemical fertilizers and give more importance to organic farming and save our native cows.

Recognize farming as a craft

In the PACS workshop related to circular economy, Sunkathonnur PACS president talked about the interest in exploring the value chain of tomatoes since farmers have lost a lot of money on tomatoes this season. Khova is something that can be explored through SHGs. To build these out, there is a need for cold storage, Godown and also Solarisations. However the PACS also needs lands where these can be carried out.

After that, everyone gets involved in occupational matters. And until they get involved in the occupation, there is a problem. If all garments are taken, then (it's a) dog, because who are the weeders, who are they? And now, government writes about government crops.
— Likith Dip
There is an opportunity for a holiday. Tell me. Anthahalli Basavaraju. The problem in our village is that in this Kalvani street, there are three street lines, and the old line is causing a lot of trouble. Please get that done for us. Because it's old, we are facing a lot of problems with water supply. Please get that done. Also, there is no way for farmers to come after 4 or 5 o'clock for the bus. We need a separate road from Pandupura to Anthahalli. School children need a separate bus, and farmers also need a separate bus.
— Siddu ಅಂತನಹಳ್ಳಿ · Giriyarahalli, Mandya, Karnataka
If there are only men in the field, where will the food come from? There won't even be rice available later. Therefore, women also need to work patiently here.
— Darshan S.K · Haravu, Mandya, Karnataka
Oil is not being provided to farmers' children; a little attention should be paid to that.

They say, Govind Gowda from Kyathanahalli village, Pandavapura taluk. We are with a farmer, a farmer activist, and we are also involved in a little political activity, small political activity. So, sir, that's how it happened.
— Bhargvi · Pandavapura, Mandya, Karnataka
What we need is a system to sell the farmers' produce in a planned manner. There should be no middlemen. It should be profitable for them, agriculture profitable
— Smriti Tiwari · Pandavapura, Mandya, Karnataka
The food prices are too high, what's the point of spending 3000-4000? Nothing grows. All the poor people are putting it in, or not putting it in. What can we do? We all work as laborers. If they do it or not, what can we do? After putting it in...
— Preetham P U
Migration from villages to cities should be minimized and agriculture should be prioritized. What is the benefit of migrating to rural areas?

This message is by DP. I would like to organize the farmers and meet them every week to give them information and educate them with the farming methods and how they can make more money by making byproducts.
— Shram
Now, we have some of our lands in the T.H. Sidra area. Okay, we have a significant road problem for our land there. This is because, from there, we have to carry things for a minimum distance. Even if we grow any crop, there's no proper road now, nothing at all.
— Likith Dip · Shivalli, Mandya, Karnataka
You are not receiving government benefits, are you? You are practicing organic farming, aren't you? You are doing just that. Can't you cultivate it normally and naturally? Do you have any information about this? Okay, I don't know anything.
— Darshan S.K
Please desilt the LBL canal a bit. That's why we are asking, as a lot of farmers are facing problems. If the LBL canal is desilted, we won't have water problems. Please fix it and select one more.
— Likith Dip · Haravu, Mandya, Karnataka
Hey, we are here. Are they taking us away? They should look after us. Build a road for us. We are having trouble on that very road. Give us this land back, and those too.

Dear Legislators, Please guide our villagers on what kind of businesses they can establish with the resources they have and how to market them.
— Vinay E S · Pandavapura, Mandya, Karnataka
Many educated young men and women from our town go to various capital cities. It is our request that we establish as many skilled and small-scale industries as possible here.
— Likith Dip · Haravu, Mandya, Karnataka
I am unable to include all the information in a single slide. I believe this kind of alcohol will definitely affect our future generations; teenagers are also becoming addicted, which will destroy the future of our village. We were initially people of a dry land and lacked proper facilities. Sir, if you take action, our village development will automatically grow. I kindly request you to take decisive action against him. Even when I tried to complain to the Abkari Ilakke (Excise Department), they only came and put a fine on him, which didn't impact him much. They even gave a certain amount to the Melukote police station. The bar owner from Jakanahalli distributes a lot of alcohol here twice a week to people. Sir, I kindly request you to take action regarding this situation. I believe in you, sir; you will provide justice to me. If you need any further complaint, I am ready to identify myself. My name is LikhithkumarD, and I am from Balighatta. Thank you.
