Earlier, Sadhguru had congratulated the Government of Punjab on a new policy that offers a 1500-rupee incentive per acre for direct seeding of rice (DSR).
Sadhguru tweeted, “Congratulations, @PunjabGovtIndia, on incentivizing sustainable farming practices. The way forward is government & policy support for farmers to embrace economically & ecologically sustainable cultivation methods. May Punjab inspire rest of Bharat.”

Agriculture experts say that the DSR method of cultivation can significantly reduce groundwater exploitation besides saving labour and irrigation costs for farmers.
