Sanghavi farm
With
the blessing of God, we brothers purchased 23
acres of land in the name of Sanghavi farm. The
reason for a businessman going towards the farming
business was to acquire disease-free food grains
along with happiness, peace and healthy-wealthy
life.
As we did not know what to grow
on this land we approached a modern farming
scientist. He prepared a report for the developing
our land, it showed an investment of Rs. 60 lacs
and profit of lacs of rupees on paper, but there
was not guarantee of achieving this profit! In
short, ‘Keeping this in mind if one is ready to
lose all his then he should go into farming', were
the words of the scientist.
As per Mr. Save's philosophical,
spiritual and religious talks and experience
‘Farming is not a business, but a religious work.
Thus for the complete development of Sanghavi farm
only Rs. 50000/- were required.'
So in the year 1987 we started
developing our wasteland as holy work. Now let's
see our experience and its results are as
follows:
• Our investment of Rs.
60000/- (development + initial tilling) on the
wasteland was returned with a profit of Rs.
15000/- within 4 months.
• We got a net profit of
Rs. 154/- per tree for cosmopolitan banana
plantation. So by Mr. Save's system of Organic
Farming we received lacs of rupees.
• The west coast's tall
variety of Coconut plants fruit only after 7
years, but with Mr. Save's system of Organic
Farming we received a bumper production in just 3
years.
• Instead of 7 years we got
bumper production of Litchi in just 3 years, that
too on a highly diseased plant.
• We planted Kesar,
Rajapuri and Alphanso mangoes. We started getting
mango production in just 6 months. With this
positive result we have developed a new saying,
‘The father sows mangoes and he eats the fruit.'
One another miracle happened with Organic Faming,
in the monsoon season mango trees had a second
flowering and blossomed. This achievement of ours
was covered and telecasted by BBC news.
• With Mr. Save's system we
grew sugarcane, in which we sow once and reap
continuous production 7 to 8 times from the same
plant.
• On the basic principle of
planets (Zodiac signs), we have planted 12 Coconut
sapling in a circle. We have named it ‘Mr. Save's
Suryamandal'. This experiment got major success on
our wasteland; that is why we say that if we apply
the same principle then deserts like Rajasthan and
Gujarat can be turned into paradises and that too
with minimum water. Even if a person has just one
acre of land then he and his family of 8 can
easily survive on its
income. |
