One Day Kisan Programme Gives Students Real Taste of Farming

Some school students took a break from their classrooms to spend a day working on a farm.

They ploughed fields with bullocks, just like farmers did long ago.

They also planted young rice plants, called paddy, with their own hands.

The farm has a programme called 'One Day Kisan' that lets children experience farming.

Kisan is another word for farmer, so the students got to be farmers for a day.

They saw how farming has changed over time, from old tools to new smart technology.

They also learned about clever watering systems called drip irrigation.

The students saw ostriches, parrots and rabbits and learned how farms and nature are connected.

Experts told them that farming can be a smart and profitable job.

The children said it was a memorable day that taught them more than textbooks could.
