Smile hiveans! Its wonderful Wednesday! I wish all are doing good and enjoying life with their loved ones and families.
Today I am sharing My Rajasthan farm photos and what we grow there. Rajasthans agriculture is essentially rain fed. Wheat, Maize and Bajra(pearl millet) are grown in the state. Now it's rainy season .
The main crops of this seasons are Bajra(pearl millet), Maize, barley, groundnuts, and veggies like Tinda (Indian sqaush), gawar fali,(cluster beans), matiri(watermelon or muskmelon), kachara, kakadiya etc.
These all needs high temperature, high humidity and rainfall.
I went for a morning walk in my grandpa's farm(grandparent).
He like to grow crops and veggies in the farm during this rainy season. He is a farmer. Now he's old but My uncle and his family stays there, grow crops and look after all the crops in the farm.
This year also he planted some seeds that are as follows-
This is cluster beans farming-
It is grown in all the parts of India. It's one of the famous vegetable, known as Guar in India. It is green in colour. Rajasthan is biggest producer of guar pods/cluster beans. In Rajashthan, cluster beans curry is also very famous in every house, in this season you will see that in lunch or dinner they must be having this vegetable in their menu. It has health benifits also. It is good for heart, make bone strong, make better blood circulation and good for diabetes.

ALOEVERA
Aloevera is found to grow in hot humid places and needs water too but with less efforts . It is medical plant. It thrives in direct sunlight. Peopled have used it for thousands of years for healing and softening the skin. Aloevera helps in lowering high blood pressure. You can drink aloe vera juice 30 ml per day empty stomach in th morning or after meal , it provide health benifits. Curry is also made by aloe vera mixing with Fenugreek seeds and raw mango.
He is my uncle. He is cleaning. Cleaning removes dust, dirt and germs from surfaces or objects. Agriculture hygiene helps to protect livestock and crops from pests and disease including insects, parasites and weeds.

This is the advantage of having a farm, you won't starve as long as we stretch thy bones.
We don't have a farm but we do plant just veggies
Yes you are right. Life is better on the farm. Gardening is a natural stress reliver. You can consume more fresh fruits and veggies and this is the most important thing you can do to Stay healty.
