Hello everyone. I am Sanjay. I am a farmer from Gani Gram Panchayat, Tikapali Block, Kandhamal District. I farm using traditional methods and I also save the seeds for the second crop. I also cultivate the second crop in un-irrigated land, from which I benefit greatly. If this process continues, many farmers in my village will also benefit. So the government should give importance to this. All farmers should be able to cultivate a second crop, so please take concrete action for that. Thank you.
