Tractors and Farm Equipment Limited (TAFE), the second largest tractor manufacturer in India, has launched ‘Be a #FarmDost’ initiative in Chennai. This initiative is aimed to celebrate the farmer and bring back the farming community into social consciousness.
TAFE’s #FarmDost initiative is to encourage people of all ages, from all walks of life, to step into the shoes of a farmer, even if it is just for a short time. The idea stems from the thought that if people find it hard to take care of just one single crop, in one square foot of land, they would truly realise what the average farmer has to go through, day in and day out.
As part of the launch, students from local schools and colleges were presented with the #FarmDost kits consisting of seed packets, and were invited to join the #FarmDost initiative, said a company press release.
