Rich Farm, Poor Farm explores two distinct agricultural paths: the conventional, profit-driven industrial farming model and the spiritually grounded, Vedic-based farming approach. The conventional farmer is rich in material wealth but trapped in unsustainable, industrial practices, while the Vedic farmer may not have material wealth, but is abundant in spiritual health, sustainability, and true prosperity.
Through the experiences of these two farmers, this book contrasts the immediate and long-term impacts of these two approaches, revealing the deeper consequences on our health, the land, and our future. It shows how aligning farming practices with nature and dharmic principles leads to a life of fulfillment, balance, and harmony with the Earth.
In a world where regeneration is more urgent than ever, Rich Farm, Poor Farm offers a compelling argument for a return to a farming model that nurtures both the land and the soul, creating a prosperous future for generations to come.
