An Ode to Indian Glory of Food and Culture
Reviving Indian Vibrant Living Is Our Motto
Veda Bharat has a purpose. The purpose that propels them to start working towards the impossible. They want to build a strong and resilient generation of Indians humans in the current era. They want to bring back that golden era of a healthy and fit generation which was existing in India - 70 to 100 years ago
The magic lies in reviving the ignored Traditional Rice Variants of India which were consumed by our previous generations.
The Beauty of Ethnic Indian Living is Inside and Outside. Healthy, Active, Spiritual and Creative! All thanks to our diet and life style!
What Went
WRONG ? ? ?
The “Green Revolution” in the 1970s, followed in an era of rapid agricultural production, foodgrains in particular. One of the catalytic agents for the revolution was chemical fertilizers. India was gravely short of foodgrains, and this agricultural shift came in handy. With massive inputs of chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and water, high crop yields were achieved.
The ‘Green’ Revolution may have saved the day (the jury is still out on that) but it was far from safeguarding the future. Damaged soils, expensive and needless farming inputs, water-intensive/water-pollutive, lethal, and ecologically harmful farming practices (all of which emanate from chemical farming) do no good to agricultural advancement, and to public health.
Fast Food brought in the superficial instant gratified lifestyle. Fastness slowly took over, including agriculture. Yield became the utmost priority than the quality and nutrition.
The Monstrous Growth of BT Rice
The Birth of BT Rice - Genetically Modified Rice is aimed at Farm yield and output and not at the quality of rice, attracted the farmer initially, but overall his morale of providing healthy food to the consumer is lost entirely.
From a generation of healthy and vibrant Indians who ate consumed varied Desi Rice based on their needs and life style ( a warrior consumed Rani Kandhai rice) to consuming trademarked rice just attracted by color and looks and not interested in the health benefits that it brings. we, Indians have lost our magic somewhere in the early millennium.
Artificially Created Demand by Companies created a mirage around BT rice and the farmers followed the same, leaving behind their Vedic farming practices and desi rice variants for extinction.
Bringing back Desi Rice to every Indian is our Core Purpose of existence! In order to make it happen, we move forward to motivate farmers across India to endorse natural farming and Desi Rice cultivation.
