Root causes of Crisis in Indian Agriculture: Dr.G.Nammalvar at TEDxSonaCollege

Born in an agriculturist family in Thanjavur, Nammalvar got himself a BSc in agriculture from Annamalai University. After the drought of 1983 in many parts of Tamilnadu and the subsequent floods, Nammalvar realised that absence of trees was the cause of both disasters.
He interacted with thousands of disillusioned farmers. Nammalvar was associated with the setting up of Low External Input Sustainable Agriculture (leisa) in 10 districts with 3000 members.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

our real Tamil scientist. we want to move more on organic.

[@jeevanr5027]

Guys, we didn't lose Nammalvar, it means we all should rise as 1000 nammalvars. I am sure we all accept his thoughts but again move on with our regular life coz of our life style. I think we should create a revolution, where we are all leaders, an online revolution(against these slow food poisons or agri business). It's for our parents, kids and future generation. Even today I have seen the farmers using fertilizers, just coz they are unaware of it and also they don't get more yield. Food is a global concern. If we all think and create a revolution, automatically the present and future world will turn in to a healthy generation of humans. Plz people join hands with me if you all feel the same way, let's unite

Dr.Nammazlwar is and was a genius, although he is no more with us here today, if we can imbibe even half of his teachings and values that truly is the respect we can do to him and our country and people.

[@ranjitklr]

What a wonderful personality he was! Deep rooted and very valid arguments for the current and future issues to be faced by the agricultural sector and the world.
