00:00I am a farmer's brother.
00:05I am very happy that
00:08I have been invited by a district officer to attend this agricultural festival.
00:26I would like to share my experience of living in a district for the last 45 years with you.
00:37The objective is clear.
00:40The population of Palamu district
00:45and the need for food
00:54is so much that we can't even imagine
00:57how much food we get from outside.
00:59As you said, the population of Palamu district is around 1,94,000.
01:17Yes, 1,94,000.
01:20Yes, 1,94,000.
01:25Do you have barren land?
01:27Do you have barren land?
01:32The population of barren land is around 550 hectares.
01:45Agriculture is based on education.
01:56We know this.
01:59We also know that it is natural that
02:02in the last 2-3 years,
02:05Palamu district has received around 1,000 mills of rain.
02:08But whenever our farmers have to face drought,
02:13it rains between 6.30 and 7.30 pm.
02:20A district officer has said that
02:26it rains less in Haryana, Punjab and Maharashtra.
02:34But there is no improvement.
02:37Why is there no improvement?
02:40We are talking about the time when
02:43the rainfall was around 1200 millimetres.
02:49When it rains around 700 millimetres,
02:52we face drought.
02:55Maharashtra, Haryana and Punjab
03:00receive good rainfall.
03:03What is happening now?
03:05I have been told by a scientist
03:11that this is a land side area.
03:14This is our district.
03:20We can also call it a sub-district.
03:23And from 1967 till now,
03:27the drought has increased.
03:29Is there any improvement in this area?
