Exhibition and/or Melas are essential in India where we have diversified topics to share and diversified products and services to display for the good of mankind. The exhibition encourages people to come forward and show to the world what we have to offer and why do we offer to the public. Our products and services have to be shared with others so that others get to know what we have and much can we all patronize so that the products and services may flourish in the market.
Jackfruits and Mangoes have a great deal to contribute in the Agricultural and Horticultural segment of our life. Each soil has a different product to offer, and even the shapes, colors and tastes of a fruit differ. Strange as it may sound, but that’s how God has gifted us different climates, different soils and different means of producing our agricultural resources for the common good of mankind.
Recently, during our visit to India, we visited various “Santhes” and we were amazed to witness so many wide varieties of agricultural products that were displayed in a wide area of rural farmland. So many fruits and vegetables were displayed in a four-acre land under various tents, and it was amazing to witness the volume of farm products that were carted to the “Santhe” for the benefit of the neighboring community.
This is the way to help our “Panchayat” and this is the way to encourage our farmers to produce more and produce better at reasonable prices. This is the beauty of a community that a rural village is proud to display, and this is where we as citizens have a duty to help and patronize.
