Cheruvayal Raman
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Without having any knowledge of conventional sciences like agriculture science or botany, he is known for conserving over 55 rice varieties on his small farm at Kammana.[3] Raman started farming on 40 acres of land given to him by his uncle. In January 2023, the Indian government honoured him with Padma Shri, the fourth highest civilian award in the country.[4]
