comment on my post

Dear All, thanks for your comment on my post, I think none of the pemkotpas who are in chigyal haven't seen Miao since they left, I know about Miao very well becoz in the year 2010-2011 (US State Department through Tibet Fund, New York) has granted around 8.6 Million INR towards soil and water conservation under Organic Farming project and undertaken following activities; land leveling & bush cutting, contour bunding, so n so and people of miao has attepmted to cultivate more than 800 acres of agriculture land but in the last farmers have able to go for around 500 acres only in the year 2010-2011 due to what reason i.e. shortage of tractor, farmers where not able to get tractor within time frame but I do agree that cooperative have poor management system, if any body think that way of farming in Miao is eco-friendly then that must be wrong notion, becoz this is 21st century and everything is going to be mechanized and how long people of miao could be survived by this type of farming, mechanization of farming doesn't mean against the concept of organic farming, organic farming is purely eco-friendly that I know but the way of farming should at least be mechanized upto certain extend otherwise people of other area may feel pitty on miao that still we are adopting out-dated system. Moreover, labour is the big problem everywhere and even in our system of farming also need huge labour force it is labour intensive agriculture system instead paying huge to labourwhich cause income over expenditure for a marginal farmer in the end. On the other hand, where is the production per acre by use of labour, it is therefore we all need to think about miao whose livelihood is purely depend upon agriculture, see other Tibetan settlements in South India, how they are doing cultivation and how much production they are earning whereas miao is concern no profit no loss or say hand to mouth only, but I doesn't mean that use of chemical fertilizer, pesticide, herbicide etc. not at all. So hope each of us must think about Miao because Miao choepheling is our birth place no matter where we are now and what we are doing, we kotpas must not forget Miao.
