There are terrains in India where nothing can be cultivated, only
grass will grow. For any cultivation flat land with good soil cover
and adequate water supplies are required. Farmers in India cultivate
fodder which they can better use to support their cows and buffaloes
for milk. For example it is easy to raise maize (corn) in many places
in India as fodder than letting it to grow to the point of giving
serial. Many serial plant residues are used as cattle feed that will
otherwise will be hard and uneconomical to turn into manure.

Dr Steven Jay Maharaj an Engineering Ph.D. from prestigious Indian
Institute of Technology having turned to Astrology seems to have lost
touch with Indian Rural Realities.
