Bangladeshi village farmers

Bangladesh is an agriculture dependent country. Most of the people live in villages. A large number of them are occupied with agriculture and they earn their living from agriculture. The people that are involved with agriculture are called farmers.  Once, jute, rice and some selected crops were preferred by farmers to deal with. But now a days the Bangladeshi village farmers has find out an expanded area to work with. Now farmers have several sites to work and they are showing a mentionable performance at their own workplace.

Bangladeshi village farmers have some categories. They are:


  1. Crop farmers
  2. Vegetable farmers
  3. Fruit farmers
  4. Flower farmers
  5. Fish farmers
  6. Poultry farmers
  7. Dairy farmers
  8. Nursery farmers




Crop farmers
Bangladesh is a country of fertile land. There are many rivers, canals, streams and lakes all over the country that’s why this country is suitable for cultivation. From a long ago the Bangladeshi village farmers are familiar with crop cultivation. In those days also there were two types of farmers – agrarians and landless. Both types are visible till now in villages. The first one gets the larger part of the crop because of their land ownership. The second one though gives hard labor, though after that they live a miserable life. In the very northern area of Bangladesh a short timed famine is seen every year.




Vegetable farmers
Many Bangladeshi village farmers are now showing their interest in this project and doing also well. Vegetables were not cultivated commercially before. But now lots of areas are covered with vegetable field. Government and some NGOs are showing the technique of proper irrigation and how to decrease the uses of insecticide.
