Any farmers here in this tech forum?

Well I'm a B.Tech I.T Engg student but my father is a farmer and I've been "in the field" till my 10th standard and do keep in touch with his work now too but as we also have a Transport firm so personally see to it more.

Praka, are you really a farmer by occupation?

Normal farmer or Big B kinda farmer?

^yes man.I look after my rubber plantation.no other way.
@rudik:glad to know!

Prakash you told me once that you'd be taking up some exams , what happened??

^well,I quit now

with rubber market price upto 139/- per kg nowadays its a profitable job.
BTW Prakash, my dad was workin in Rubber Board,Kothamangalam.

Many families in Kerala rely on farming especially in areas like Wayanad[paddy farm] and lots of people in Pala/Kottayam/Iduky/Kothamangalam etc in Kerala has Rubber Estates.[some Big B kinda farmers]

^Arey Kyon mera pet mar raha re too
BTW,here in muvattupuzha the soil is not so good for rubber(latex amount is less),while we have the plantation near thodupuzha.
@domi:so,he's working in KMGM?

Now he's in Kottayam branch of Rubber Board [Puthupally Research].

Well if Amitabh Bacchan can claim to be a farmer then everyone of us are farmers

my great grandpa had some rice land.
when he got old, another farmer was employed with both getting the output.
but those damn communists in kerala t00k away the land.
