dear jitendra shah,

who doesn't want money? its astonishing to read such message.
anyways let me also try to woo you to give me funds, not for myself but for the state of Gujarat, India.

i introduce myself as Chetan Dedhia (Ravechi Agro Products), Managing Director of 'Millennium Agriculture Association of Gujarat'. this is a group formed by the award winning farmers of gujarat, to enhance the quality and quantity production of horticulture crops in Gujarat. we have formed this group with an intention to export our quality produces to various countries of the world. for this, we tried to experiment a small scale marketing stunt in the city of ahmedabad, where we tried to convince the mango growing farmer's of kutch to give their 'a' quality product for marketing. but to our dismay, we found that out of 10 farmers none of them knew what was quality mango. and we were hardly able to sell 4-5 tons of export qlty mango in ahmedabad in two weeks.

so after this run-up, we thought that we should first train these farmers thoroughly to make them grow export qlty mangoes. so we tried to contact many experts of mango crop to give their valuable time to teach these farmers. we have also asked "Horticulture Training Centre", Pune, a maharashtra state enterprise, to conduct one day seminars in gujarat for this purpose.

but all this requires a lot up money to do so. first we need a hi-tech training centre for the capacity to train atleast 50 farmers, boarding and lodging facilities, projectors, tv screens, video cd player, library, laboratory, web site, computers, faculty, staff, etc, to run this show.

hence after reading your advertisement to do social work in the field of agriculture, what better than this can be done, where you can directly and indirectly reach the farmers through 'MAAG' co-operative's Training Centre and help them in their cause of better farming. Gujarat state has ample land and ample water, and since the narmada canal project is progressing in a big scale, reaching to each and every corner of gujarat, its going to be a boon for agriculture in this state, opening great oppurtunities for agri-business developement. Gujarat has the perfect climate to grow various fruits and vegetables like mangoes, grapes, pomegranates, chickoo, onions, potatoes, cucurbitis, beans etc, etc...

'MAAG' can further start a media business with introducing quality magazines, exhibitions, and even tv channels. it can also invest in processing plants and market their produce worldwide under one brand name of 'MAAG'.

i hope i must have thrown enough light to convince you to invest in our co-operative and if not you are kindly requested to meet me personally in India, as there is still lot to say and understand.

hoping for a favourable reply,

regards,
For 'Millennium Agriculture Association of Gujarat'


Chetan Dedhia,
Managing Director
