Hi everyone,

We're looking for a trustworthy permanent farm helper (single person or a small family) for our 30-acre farm near Akluj, Solapur.

We provide:

- Stay on the farm (house available)

- Electricity & water

- Long-term work

If you know someone who is genuinely looking for this kind of opportunity, please let me know. Even a referral would be greatly appreciated. If someone you refer joins and works out well, we'll make sure to thank you appropriately.

Please DM me if you have any leads. Thanks!

Jai Jinendra! 🙏

Maybe it's nostalgia, but every now and then I randomly miss Palitana sangh trips.

The 3–4 AM wake-ups, everyone climbing at their own pace, waiting for family and friends, chanting on the way, the first glimpse of Dada's derasar at sunrise... somehow those memories stick with you.

What's the one memory from a Palitana sangh trip that you'll never forget?

Hi everyone,

We have around 30 acres of agricultural land near Akluj, Maharashtra. Our main crops are banana, sugarcane, pomegranate, and custard apple.

The biggest problem is that almost all the farming is managed by my father, who is around 60 years old now. Traditional farming has become very difficult because of unpredictable weather, fluctuating market prices, labour shortages, rising input costs, and the physical effort involved.

Some years we earn ₹50–60 lakh, while in other years we barely break even or even make losses. The uncertainty is becoming stressful.

We've already explored solar land leasing, but couldn't find any company interested in our location.

At this point, we're open to almost any practical option:

- Leasing the farm to someone

- Contract farming

- Revenue-sharing partnerships

- Long-term land lease

- Agroforestry or other low-maintenance crops

- Any business that can generate a stable monthly income from the land

- Or any other ideas we may not know about

We're even considering selling the farm and moving to Pune for a more stable source of income, but it's a huge decision and we're very confused.

Has anyone been in a similar situation? If you own agricultural land or know of successful models that provide more predictable income with less day-to-day involvement, I'd really appreciate your advice.

Thanks in advance.
