Terrific AP. I remember talking to you about Agrotourism in Baramati. Heard a lot about it. Now seeing the photos.

[Nutty Nair]

Ha ha! This looks interesting. But wait, "The End" before the start itself? Not fair, AP saab

[Turboholic]

@MX6: Is this similar to the one near Morachi Chincholi? I remember you mentioning about the Agro tourism thing at the Team BHP meet.

@ AP: You are at it again! Hats off to you mate.

This is real Agro tourism. The one at Morachi Chincholi is ok, but is highly priced for a joyride in a tractor and night meals.

Yeah, this is real agro tourism.

This is the place where i intended to arrange team-bhp meet but high cost, time and other things are speed breakers.

This is not konkan nor kerala, hundreds of coconut trees are 200 km away from western coastline of India.


The field of the best fruit, sometimes, this is figured in sukameva/dry fruit category. can you guess?


no guess...


ok, closer look..



count the number of fruit called FIG.


Look at those leaves, simple, isn't it.
sometimes, those leaves can make big hole in your money pocket. how?




Those leaves named TUTI are feed to worm named SILKWORM.
Now, i hope, you got the relation between leaves of TUTI and your money pocket.




Hey, there is dairy, lets move....

Wow. I didn't know figs grew in 12mati! When you said dry fruits, I thought, can't be figs. Then when I scroll down, they are actually FIGS!

12mati is known for sugar and grapes, not for fig.

Best fig in India is cultivated very near to pune, just @30 km away at saswad.

If you noticed, the entrance board at this farm states as model farm.

This farm belongs to family of political heavy weight from 12mati.

I will finish this small photologue today within next 2 hours.

Jercy cow, average milk yield 45 ltr per day.


Goat farm

Indian goat named Osmanabadi goat, known for best milk.


Those Australian guys are world famous for wool. identify them.
