Dear manohar,
I am wondering why you are not able to make any profit.
If you give us the type of crops as well as the expenses you have done, it will give an idea to understand the problem correctly. Once the problem statement is clear, suggestions on profit making will be easy to provide.

Profit
You need to have a stratergy in place to target your profit. It is very difficult to achieve this in farming as there are many variable factors to take into consideration.
Moveover the chances of short term profits are really not realistically achievable in farming. I hope I am not discouraging you - if you enjoy farming then there is no other proffession that can give you the same kind of satisfaction. But as the saying goes - satisfaction comes with hardwork and perservation in your efforts. Cheers Philip

profitable farming
Dear Manohar,
10 acres is the minimum size one should have to make it a profitable farm and you have it.If other infrastructures are in place and capability to invest and manage is also there it should give you a gross profit of Rs 20 lakhs and net profit of Rs 10 lakhs per year provided it is supported by good project consultant who has good experience in technical aspects and finance background(single person).
Self experimentation does not bring good results just like trying to cure diseases with self medication.

windfall profits
in agriculture one seed grows and gives plenty of seeds but profit doesnt come means then this government and traders or cheating us. dont cultivate which doesnot fetch you good price.
if you plant hibiscus you can get more than one lakh per year but labour intensive.
if you plant indigofera tinctoria or henna or thulasi then you get 25000 to 60000 rs per year. dont have marketing fear, i will buy all these things at good rates from you.
with the following you can get 4 to 8 lakhs per year without much fuss. dont lose hope

patience, perseverance and vision are the key to farm success
Farming can be profitable if one is willing to change one's mindset and do things a little differently from the run-of-the-mill farmers. A mixed, integrated farm meaning one that grows cereals, millets, pulses, fruits, vegetables herbs and also keeps cows can be extremely successful over a period of time. But you need to give yourself at least 5 years to reach this point.
The more you can cut down on your input costs by making your own farm inputs, the higher your profit margin will be. I hope you get this subtle yet important point. Because most farmers today are spending huge amounts on farm inputs and the money from sales is hardly sufficient to meet the input costs. Th picture changes for the better when a farmer starts making his own farm inputs with cheap, locally available materials.
Just growing single crops and hoping for profits is an unwise thing because prices of cereals and pulses fluctuate in the open market from year to year, season to season. That is why a wise farmer who thinks of the long term plants tree crops on his farm-- fruits, herbs, green manure plants. Why even one acre of coconut trees will give you a good income provided you follow good cultivation practices. But this means waiting for 5-6 years for the trees to bear fruit. Ditto for mango trees.
Patience and vision are essential to be a good and successful farmer in the long run. If you have these qualities success cannot be far away despite temporary setbacks due to natural factors. If you want further advice on this send me a PM.
