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.

My name is Mutiy Pradhan. My Gram Panchayat is Pikorodi. My Block is Tikabali. My District is Kandhamal. Our mothers used to store seeds in the olden days. They would keep seeds in pots near the fire in 'Putra Jakore'. Nothing would happen to them. Today, in today's date, farming is done with fertilizer and pesticides, which is why this year, the seeds cannot last even for a year. That's why we want to live like before.
