Kisan Jeep offers link between farmers and market
The Hindu
A free service it transports farmers’ produce from the villages in the forest fringes to the buyers
Every time when his jeep rolls to a stop, Praveen Plavilayil rushes out of its driver seat and shouts, “ bring in your sacks, hurry up.” The people, who are waiting at these points, suddenly get into action and take turns to stuff the empty space on board with the baggage in their possession. Within minutes, the jeep sets off to its next destination and then goes on to complete a loop of several collection points before returning, mostly by evening.More Related News
