That's what the new farm laws were designed for. Farmers in Northen states can't do this as their produce must have to be sold in the designated markets and they can't sell it directly to other countries like these people in Kerala and TN. Kerala and TN already removed the old farm laws before central gov did it. When Central gov did it all over the country, they protested against it and as a result, farmers in regions like Punjab will not be able to sell their products directly like this.

My childhood summers were spent eating the outer fruits of nutmeg/mace with salt and chili powder, so long so long.. The red ants called "neeru" in malayalam are really vicious, but less poisonous than "katturumbu". It has been years since I saw one. Their nests are pretty and how they weave the leaves together is a work of art.

Try buy the whole spice. Much stronger flavour and lasts longer as well. Most ground spices have fillers to increase volume.

We call it Jaiphala or Jaabani in Odia. The 1st one is loaned from Sanskrit, since nutmeg is not native to Odisha at all and we dont use it in our traditional or religious dishes. Jaabani is the local Odia name for nutmeg, since we used to get it from Indonesia in ancient times. It was mostly popular in Kerala and Tamil Nadu provinces of India, since ancient times, apart from its native Indonesia, until it was popularized by the Portuguese in Europe and the world beyond.

Greqt initiative. But, pollachi is water deficient region and is high risk growing nutmeg that needs good level of irrigation. Compared to Tamil nadu if the worker is getting 250 Rs, in Kerala you need to pay minimum Rs 500, which obviously increases the production cost of Nutmeg.

​@@Solyolvimirshe also mentioned that subracting food costs, the 10,000 R/month was not enough. She did mention that that the food on the farm is good and plentiful so room and board is likely part of her pay in addition to the 250R per day.

People look down on the middle men but they too have their challenges the logistics are insane in the Indian market The price fluctuations are crazy too they take care of transportation and storage over all it is a lot of work too

lol let's not pretend they do NO work. buying, storing, transporting and selling are all parts of their trade. but yes, it's better when the farmers are able to cut out the middlemen. unfortunately this is impossible for the large scale crops in india, as there are a lot of vested political interests that discourage any regulation that allows this choice.

very neat and sustainable. you literally see that its a good business for them; everything is clean, people are calm and healthy, theres no trash whatsoever and that plantation looks beautiful with the coconut palms. no pesticides either from what i could see, those ants eat all of them i suppose. sadly, climate change will get there too..
