Watermelon is cultivated by many farmers nowadays and they also get good benefits from it. But do you know that once in history war broke out between two princely states because of melon cultivation? Yes, this incident actually occurred in Rajasthan in the year 1644 AD when a war broke out between Bikaner and Nagaur princely states for the harvest of watermelon and thousands of soldiers were killed.
The conflict between two farm owners for the melon crop grown on the border of Bikaner and Nagaur princely state was the reason for the beginning of this war. Actually, watermelon crop was planted in the last village of Bikaner state. This watermelon vine went to the spreading village of another princely state. When the melon fruits started growing, then there was this war for claim on the same fruit. In this war, the princely state of Bikaner was won and the soldiers of Nagaur were badly defeated.

The farmer can be happy only when the soil of the field is fertile and Gramophone started the Super Fasal Program to assess the health of the soil and provide agricultural assistance to the farmers. Hundreds of farmers have benefited from this program. This not only yielded good yield but also improved the fertility of the soil of the farm.
Farmer of Dhar district Mr. Mukesh Kushwaha got soil tested with the help of this program and removed the existing deficiencies in the soil. By doing this, their agricultural cost was reduced considerably and production was also good. This year the soybean crop of most farmers was destroyed due to the weather, but Mukesh ji got a good yield of 10 quintals / acre under the guidance of Gramophone. Mukesh ji obtained a total of 30 quintals of yield from his 3-acre field.
