Three Farmers Cultivate Marigold Flowers in Bhadrapur, Aiming for High Returns

Bhadrapur. The fields where paddy stalks used to sway are now blooming with marigold flowers. Three farmers from Durringe, Buddhashanti Rural Municipality-3, have ventured into flower cultivation on 10 katthas of land, aiming for a turnover of Rs 10 to 12 lakhs, compared to an annual production of about Rs 50,000 from paddy cultivation.

Vinod Rizal, Gunaraj Neupane, and Birbal Baniyan have collectively cultivated marigolds on 10 katthas of land. Their initiative, started under the 'Krishi Compass' group, has become a new possibility for farmers seeking alternatives to traditional farming.
