[www.keralites.net] Kerala the richest state

 


We would like to bring to the notice to all that, Today Kerala is depends other states to meet its requirements of vegetables, milk and other essential commodities. But we would like to bring you some naked truth.
The Vattavada Panchayat in Idukki district is producing large qty of vegitables. These products are taking to Body and Madurai and traders from Kerala know only about Madurai is going regular to Madurai and neglected these golden places. The elders once up on a time started the business with Madurai and still this relation and route is going on eventhough there is hartal and strike every day in Kerala.
Many of the N R I and other investors now found this place as a great treasure for a safe investment to develop agriculture and other required items for our Kerala. A new agro – Tourism project also developed to attract more tourists to this Panchayat which is hardly 4 KM from the main top station of Munnar Hill station on Kodakanal- Munnar National Highway.
So the interested investors  in Agro –Tourism  are welcome to Koviloor city, Vattavada Panchayat-Munnar-Idukki

You know the story of 1000 kgs of putrified meat brought from Karnataka and about to be sold to hoteliers, bakeries, etc. Somebody gave a hint to the health department and the room where this meat was stored was raided. But they went on talking and talking and no case was registered no arrests were made and the meat was not taken into custody to be destroyed. Health department said it is for the Food inspectorate to check the meat and the police were the on lookers. This news came in Manorama News and suddenly the person who brought the meat went and applied for anticipatory bail. It is more than 10 days old. The meat would have been consumed by the public in "mutton puffs, mutton samosas, mutton rolls etc.

Recently I met someone in Dubai who is farming very passionately in Trissur district. He is farming in 10 acres; paddy and vegetables. I asked him why couldn't he reach the market directly. He told me that he can do that for one time. Before he thinks about second time, middle men will approach him and explain him how bad that could be for his health and well being in a very polite way! 

Recently tones of snake gourd (padavalam) were destroyed by farmers, because middle men offered them Rs 2 per Kg. This was happened when this vegetable item was sold for Rs 20 or 30 in the market.

Middle men make 10 to 20 times the gains while actual farmer ( producer) investing hard work and money taking all the risks gets a pittance.
Further, the middle men control the market prices.
 The Co- op Societies have to play a more important role to give the farmer his due share and the common man gets the commodity at a lower price. Such objectives of the Co-operatives are quite often forgotten, when politicians are placed to head/ control such Co-ops.

Co-ops should be managed by the farmers /producers themselves, with professional assistance from outside for mechanization, processing, storage,value addition, marketing etc.Punjab is an example in this ,for the same reason It has the well-to-do farmers. More than 40 years back all the punjabi farmers were using tractors and tillers in their fields.Look at Kerala even today most farmers are unable to use these due to perverted political ideologies. Change in Kerala came only too late,when Agriculture virtually stopped, mainly due to high labor costs in spite of good weather and water.

Dear,

There is no surprise in this. For the last so many years, farmers in this country are suffering from this. Tomato which is bought @ Rs 2 from the farmers are being sold @ Rs 20 or 30 in the market. The Rs 2 paid to the farmer is again not from their pocket but from the advance paid by their clients.

DR. TITUS JOHN
A friend of mine, who is a doctor in Thiruvananthapuram, called me the other day to tell this story. He recently built a house in one of the city suburbs. One day, a man who lives nearby, came and asked him why he still had no curtains on the windows.
Doctor, he said, this is a beautiful, new house. But where are the curtains? You need curtains.
Curtains, he said, would look nice on this new building. My friend told the man that he would call him after some time. The man gave my friend his address and left. A month later, my friend decided to put curtains and went in search of this man. But when he enquired in the locality, he was told that there was none who stitched curtains.
After a couple of days, the man again appeared before my friend. Doctor, it seems you came searching for me. My friend told him that he was indeed there but could not locate him. To this, the man replied, True doctor, it is me and my brother who are doing this. I will bring him soon.
And off he went. But a few days later, both were back. When the doctor gave the specifications for the curtains, they said they would return. They were true to their word but they brought with them an emaciated man. This man took the measurements and the curtains were ready in a week.
But what were the first two doing? Of course, we all know what they were doing. They did nothing. But they made money out of the poor tailors labour and sweat. And this is the latest and rapidly spreading work culture in every field of activity in Kerala.
Who on earth said you cannot catch fish without wetting your hands?
