A school of aspiring farmers by Experienced and innovative Farmers @JEEVIKA Shivpuri


This is on field activity for farmers to know about innovative, organic and technical farming practices. It's a three day activity in which we have to go with Scientists from KVK or officials from Agriculture Dept. in our 14 target villages. So that farmers will have conversation with experts. When we went to KVK to discuss about it and asked for their guidance. They Suggested name of Mr. Shri Krishna Dhakad. A 72 year old farmer from nearby village Gopalpur, who is doing organic farming since 1952 and got many awards at National, State and District level. Another reason for choosing this person is that community people are easily mingle with him and don't hesitate in asking questions to him. He also know as Desi Dadda and attached for Jeevika for last 6 months. You can also hear his experiences on Kisan Vani on Radio. he went with in our 14 villages and told farmers about how he never left organic farming practices and encourages our farmers towards this. He has given very simple and easily available solutions for any crop related problems. I will share more his experiences with us when ever we needed him and ready to provide good quality earth worms to Jeevika Organic Pits...
