Got the fencing done for my natural farm land

The land we got in Hyderabad for my natural farm, the first thing I decided is to get the fencing done.

Earlier people said it would take around 52K to get the fencing done but it came around 1.25 Lacs to get it done. Almost triple from the budget.

Here are the details

The total boundary area : 2600 fit (approx)
Number of poles (stone poles of 6.5 fit) : 340 @ INR 135 each = Rs. 45900
645 KG barbed wire @66 per kg : Rs. 42570
Labour charge to get the fencing done (Rs. 73 per pole including wire fixation) : Rs. 24820
Miscellaneous charges (like transportation, binding wire etc) : Rs. 12000/-

Total : Rs. 1.25 Lacs approximately.

One thing I noticed that now after fencing the land is looking beautiful and large. Spent almost triple the amount of budget, was not expecting this much but I had to get this done.

What's next? Need some more work, will keep updating here.



I did see another land in Hyderabad

I did see another land in Hyderabad and the agreement is done.

Little bit about how it happened.


One fine day (Shivratri), I just called one of the broker number I had get from Internet and he said that one land is available. I immediately scheduled a visit on the same day. We all (complete family) went and saw that land, it was around 3 acres land, pure agricultural land. Just beside this land, Brinjal, Chillies, Onions, Paddies and others stuffs are planted. Two bore wells are also beside this land, not in this land.

In one look I loved it and decided to buy it. Broker talked with the land lord and we went to the land lord house and took all the xerox of the document.

Was trying to bargain the price and after several days of whether I can afford or not and talking with Broker, Land lord we settled down with the final price.

Got the measurement done (a long story short, here also I got frustration but little less), please takes money but do not do things right.

We were planning for the registration however people suggested to go for the legal advice and I was approaching an advocate. I went to him and he asked for Khasra Pahani (a document that tells the complete ownership story about that land). It took money and a lot of time to get that document.

I got the document and then again a lot of things happened, finally I went to the MRO (Municipal Office) and saw the village map and was convinced about it.

I decided to buy this land and got the agreement done !

It was 5-Apr-2012 !!!!

Finally I didn't buy that land

Finally I didn't buy that land. It was too complicated to deal with that broker.

I lost around 50K rupees in cash and got a lot of frustration.

Do not want to discuss that topic any further it gives pain as I was quite hopeful about it.

I was disappointed

With all zeal and self encouragement, I had gone to buy the land. But after seeing the land, I was not very happy. It was not as explained by the broker.

A lot of things happened and I am still in confusion whether to buy the land or not. You know broker never tells truth so there are many stuffs that I am getting from left-right side or after directly talking with the land lord.

Confused and disappointed, huh!

But still the search is on .....

Hope to see something great soon.

Farming videos on YouTube.com

For last several months, I am keep watching farming videos of YouTube.com (especially Natural Farming, Zero Budget Farming, Organic Farming).

There are not a lot but few of the videos are awesome and they tell real story. Mr. Bhaskar Save, Mr. Subhas Phalekar and others Indian videos are real story videos and they tells the truth.

Videos from other countries tells about Organic farming but actually they are not. The only difference is that they do not use Chemical but the methodology of preparing the organic fertilizer is completely mechanised so its not natural and it takes a lot of time and effort to prepare them.

Indian videos and farming methodology shown in those videos are out of the box. They do not talk about machine, even a tractors.

Indian farming are no tilling, no ferilizing, no pesticid, no chemical, no hard work farming. Its awesome, Our ancestors were great master piece.

Some of the Indian chamchas of gore people have made India like this that is why farmers are doing suicide and still these so called Indians are dominating because of their money power and influence.

Follow the Indian ancient methodology of Farming and become peaceful and rich !@@!!!

Thanks

Writing from Airport...... .

Sometimes I think whether it is right?

I talked with some of my near and dear folks about my decision that I am going to go ahead with the Farming and looking for land.

I hardly find anyone who tells its a good decision.

One of my friend who is Chartered Accountant said its close to suicide. Farmers in India suicide what you will do with the farming except suicide. But I feel is this right, when I think patiently I feel its not. After all we all are one or the other way belog from farmers family and we have grown up seeing all these things.

After reading a lot of books, articles, watching a lot of videos I feel its not close to suicide. Perhaps there is a big gap in terms of knowledge on how to do farming. There are hardly few farmers who are really successful but Govt. and other agencies do not encourage them and spread the knowledge about it due to their vested interest.

The next 5-10 years will be of Indians and India will grow many folds. Naturally people will eat and they will eat good food. The polution will grow, the life style will change and ultimately many folks will be out of race due to life style diseases and many will give up.

I think this is the right time to move forward and try something unique and that is what I am going to do.

Someone may say I think too much or I am mean minded. At least I do not care as long as I feel whatever I am going to do is right and I feel whatever I am thinking is right and I can do farming easily. I may not earn millions but I will earn a good health for myself and my family for sure.

Health is wealth @@@@~!!!!!
