The land is getting smaller and smaller
It is under the heat of the noon sun that every one is working without stop.It is becoming difficult to feed one’s family in the fields of India today. When Shekar was young his family had 12 acres of land. That land was shared between his 6 brothers leaving him 2.5 acres. For more and more people, the land is getting smaller and smaller because of the traditional heritage system. This added to the fluctuation of the prices on the international market is bringing also more and more insecurity. It is chasing farmers away from the fields. Land is sold to build more and more real estate properties. Making money elsewhere will feed you better then working the fields think the farmers.
