From Classroom to Fields: A Teacher's Journey into Modern Agriculture

Raj Gautam/ Nepal Photo LibraryMakwanpur. On a quiet evening in Padampokhari-13, Hetauda, Fenchhu Lama is observing his dragon fruit plants. Sometimes he is closely inspecting the plants, and other times he is giving instructions to his workers. His demeanor reflects a firm self-confidence—a confidence gathered not just by experience, but by his own determination. Until a few years ago, he was enjoying his time with students in the classroom; today, he is sharing his experiences with the soil of the fields.
