Hi All,
Iam an Software Engineer who is planning to leave my profession and take up Farming. Iam planning to Cultivate Drumsticks in organic way in my 3 acres of land.
Doing so I would be able to see a profit of around 1 lakh/acre/Year. Could you you give me ideas on how to increase that income? I mean planting any other crops along with drumstick or growing sheep.
Please help. Please forgive me for any mistakes as iam totally new to farming.

Thanks,
Zaheer.

Hi,
First of all the land chosen for drumstick cultivation shouldnt be water logged in any case.
I have bought the plants from Dindugal in T.N.

Could you tell me about your plan, i mean are you solely cultivating drumstick or any other crop.
And in how many acres.

Thanks,
Zaheer.
