I nurture my soil for generations to come, because that is not just my work… it is my identity

My name is Mahender Singh, and I grow wheat and paddy on the same land my forefathers once walked upon—a land they protected and passed down to me like a sacred gift. For me, this soil is not just earth; it is memory, heritage, and the heartbeat of my home. I worship my land because everything I have today has risen from it.

Keeping my soil healthy, rich, and alive is my promise to the next generation. I spend most of my time caring for it - improving it, learning from it, and giving it what it needs to stay fertile and strong. This is my duty, my devotion, and the lessons I teach my children every single day. I tell them that the more love we return to our soil, the more abundance it blesses us with.

And truly, this soil has given me things I never imagined - respect in my village, prosperity in my home, and a deep sense of pride in my heart. For me, farming is not just a livelihood; it is a lifelong relationship with the land.

I am a farmer, and I am a Maati ka Rakhwala, carrying forward a legacy of care and gratitude.
