खेती जिसमें एक किसान और उसके उपभोक्ता बीच अगर हजारों किलोमीटर का लंबा फासला हो, तो ज़ाहिर है इस फासले को पाटने का जज्बा हर किसी के बूते की बात नहीं होगी। यह तो 64 साल के करण वीर सिंह सिद्धू की हिम्मत, संकल्प और उनके पिता के सच्चे किसान का डीएनए ही था जिसकी वजह से वो इस जोखिम भरे माहौल यानी खेती के धंधे में कूद गए।

Farmers in coastal areas of Bangladesh have freed the freshwater canals from encroachment to irrigate their fields and are cultivating three crops a year. Some of the farmers have adopted the floating method of vegetable cultivation in ponds for a higher produce. They no longer migrate to cities in search of work.

Yamuna has many aspects of her being. In sharp contrast to its widespread public image of being a river contaminated with pollutants, it nurtures vegetable farming on its banks. Cultivating these vegetables is a vital source of livelihood to thousands of urban farmers in Delhi. These urban farmers are barely chronicled in country's agrarian landscape. Gaon Connection offers a pictorial tribute to these farmers in a photo essay.

Birhor tribe is one of the eight particularly vulnerable tribal groups (PVTGs) in Jharkhand that has remained trapped in poverty and deprivation. An initiative has trained Birhor women of Jehen Gutwa village in vegetable cultivation and animal husbandry, which has arrested migration and improved the community's nutritional standard.

After torrential rains last year ruined any prospect of profits for the musk melon cultivators in Satna, Madhya Pradesh, and sunk them in debt, the farmers have doubled the acreage of cultivation hoping their gamble will pay off this year.
