Comprehension:
Read the
given passage and answer the following questions.
A farmers’
club in Idukki district is the only farmers’ group in Kerala which runs a
library
exclusively
for farmers. Started in 2017, the library has over 1,000 members and 600-odd
books
related to agriculture, animal husbandry and other farm ventures.
“When the
younger generation wants to enter farming, they should not be left in the dark
for
want of
information on farming practices and techniques. The books in the library would
offer
them
knowledge on farming, animal husbandry and all allied areas. Its membership is
open
for all
farmers. Quality seeds are also sold at the club,’’ says Tom Cheriyan, club
secretary.
The reading
room is open to all, but books can be taken home only after paying a one-time
membership
fee of Rs. 500.
The club has
also brought out four books on farming, which deal with good practices and
stories of
successful farmers. The write-ups in these books are by farmers, many of whom
have
scripted success stories with innovative farming techniques.
For
instance, one book published by the club, on “Modern farming and farming
practices”,
includes an
article on mango cultivation by Mathew Madathikkandam, a farmer from Kerala’s
mango hub of
Muthalamada. Another article in the book, on pepper cultivation, has been
authored by
George Puliyammakkal, a winner of the National Innovation Foundation award.
The club has
opened a shop too, where pesticide-free vegetables and certified organic
products are
sold without a chain of middlemen.
To tap the
online market, the club has also developed a mobile app suitable for farmers,
as
most of them
use smart phones with net connectivity.
Within a
year, 15,000 people from across the country have already downloaded the app,
‘farmers’
e-market’. It offers a platform for buyers and sellers from across India.
Farmers can
display
their products, quote prices and strike a direct deal with buyers. Besides,
there are
options for
trading poultry products, dairy animals and farm machinery. The app has turned
useful for
scores of farmers, who can now directly interact with potential buyers.
Anwar
Sadath, a dairy farm enthusiast in Idukki, says he sold three Gir cow calves
within a
year through
the app. “I had posted photos of the calves along with the prices. Within a few
days, they
were sold. After I got the money credited in my account, I took the calves by
truck
to Thrissur
district. Otherwise, I would have to go to a cattle market and bargain with the
help
of
middlemen,’’ he says.
At
Mannarakkadu in Palakkad, honeybee keeper K Joy is waiting for buyers for
forest honey.
“At the
wholesale market, we would get less than Rs. 200 per kg of honey. But when we
sell
directly, we
can get Rs. 300-320 per kg,’’ he says.
SubQuestion
No : 11
Q.11 What is NOT sold at the club shop?
A. Farm machinery
B. Pesticide free vegetables
C. Good quality seeds
D. Certified organic products
