Fish Farming for household consumption and a source of additional income
I dropped out from school after five due to family problems and have been working on my lands. I have 3.5 acres of upland, 1 acre of medium land, 2 acres of low land and a small pond - 300 square feet in size. I cultivate rice, finger millet, groundnut, green gram, black gram, pigeon pea in my land, and also do fish farming in my small pond. I have learned many things from the LANSA project of M.S. Swaminathan Research Foundation, such as - line transplanting of finger millet, establishing a nutrition garden of fruits and vegetables, also the benefits of eating different types of foods.
