Fr.George Quadros needs Govt .appreciations Fr Quadros has now been invited to help farmers in Sindhurgh ,.Maharashtra. The Govt and Agricultural Dept has never been able to enthuse farmers to be productive .The legislations land to the tenants has never taken off as expeted Communidade land sold to the tenants at cheap rate did not brig fallow land under cultivation.In fact the purchase was to profit hugely by conversions even though it is violative of stattutes All the schemes with subsidies on inputs havesters ,crop insurance etc did not encourage farmers .The high costs ,non availability of labour ,dry irrigation canals ,cattle menance and unremunerative price dampened initiatives for paddy cultivation Fr Quadrops entered the scene with mechanised farming of cultivation transplantation ,drones for spraying pesticides,fertilizers harvesting etc the economics of cost were slashed appreciably. Farmers cooperatives sprang up ushering green revolution removing drudgery of labour costs of operations at affordable price..The movement spread like contagious disease , making Fr Quadros Paddyman of Goa.most in demand and hereadily obliged Suffice it to say that one man was able to do what the Agricultural Minister and retinue of employees under the Dept could not achieve The Govt due to its religious bias ignored legitimate recognition to Fr.Quadros In fact he should have been felicitated for ushering green revolution in paddy cultivation , cash crops thus bringing fallow land for 3 decades plus into productions It is never late to correct the injustice considering his most valuable contributions Nelson Lopes Chinchinim
