Every year, 1st of July is celebrated as the Krishi Din, also known as Agriculture Day, in Maharashtra. Krishi din is celebrated to remember the father of Green Revolution of Maharashtra, Vasantrao Phulsing Naik, the former Chief Minister of the state. As a part of an agrarian country, Maharashtra is one of the major cultivating states. For many products, the country depends on the state. However, the farmers have been suffering for last few years. Lack of monsoon and growing inflation have made cultivators the victims. Hence, Krishi Day is one such platform to find solutions to these underlying problems.
