Andhra Pradesh farmer earns Rs 4 crore with his tomato yield in just 45 days

At a time when the recent surges in tomato prices across the country have left people in a state of worry as it has increased the monthly kitchen budgets of many households in India, it has come to the fore that many have even stopped consuming tomatoes. With tomato prices ranging between Rs 150-Rs 200 per kg in different states, there are no signs of ease as of yet. As customers continue to wait for tomato prices to come down, tables have turned for an Andhra Pradesh-based farmer who has racked in not Rs 1-Rs 2 crores but a whopping amount of Rs 4 crore from his tomato yield in just 45 days.

Surprised? So were we but it is the truth. According to a TOI report, the 48-year-old farmer Murali who hails from Andhra Pradesh's Chittoor district has sold his tomatoes from 35 harvests for Rs 4 crores.

Little did he know that just the way his father had earned Rs 50,000 years with his tomato yield years back, he would be also able to make such a significant income from the same crop.
