Even the Chicalim youth farmer club that filed in December last year has taken upon itself the struggle to cultivate paddy on about 20,000sqm property which has been lying fallow for 2 and a half years.
They’ll even be engaging the public to flip it into a neighborhood farming undertaking.
The team is going to be mentored and directed by the proprietors of their property, farmers .
“The property belongs to various owners that have given us their NOC to rekindle their territory.
They’ll be the mentors and benefactors and will talk about all their knowledge together with the youth,” stated parish priest of Chicalim Fr Bolmax Pereira who pioneered the motion.
The youth got affected by injury once the pandemic fell last year because there was no labor to operate in the areas.
“The farmers that were frequently cultivating their property requested us for assistance and that is when the youth hauled ,” he explained.
The youth started getting their hands dirty at June 2020 and later engaging in a variety of endeavors, they started growing vegetables in January this season.
“we would like to contact natural farming and getting visitors to return to their subjects.
There are a number of settlers from different villages that gave up farming and that are demonstrating interest in farming ,” Pereira said.
The youth are becoming folks from surrounding regions to provide them their own kitchen waste rather than throwing out this, which s used as compost.
“Rather than littering we could utilize this natural waste in our farming.
Giving us the natural waste can help eliminate the custom of folks throwing food away residue that leads to garbage dumps,” Pereira said.
