Timbaktu — Green Revolution in India

Bhagavad-gita (18.44) therefore enjoins that human society must give protection to the cows and encourage agriculture (krsi-go-raksya-vanijyam vaisya-karma svabhava-jam). Simply by expert cooking, hundreds and thousands of palatable dishes can be prepared from agricultural produce and milk products.

(Srimad-Bhagavatam, 10.7.13-15)

Timbaktu – where the earth meets the sky

“This video of an Organic farming collective in India that began with rock for soil, is first class – anybody who cannot feel a strong empathy for the land and nature should definitely watch it. And for all those who can feel for Mother Earth, this video will melt your heart.

A land where the soil has started to breathe again
A village that does not exist on the map
A people who celebrate life A no-where, no-where land…

When a small farming community in South India decided to switch from their decades-old practice of chemical agriculture to organic farming, little did they know that they were planting the seeds of a silent revolution. By showcasing the exemplary efforts of farmers of a tiny village in Andhra Pradesh, Timbaktu explores critical issues of food security and sovereignty. At its heart, Timbaktu looks at the relationship that a farmer shares with her land, her seeds and raises critical questions about food, the very essence of human life.”
