Join Harpreet, a young farmer who’s helping to revolutionize America’s agricultural landscape. It's his off-season techniques, their use of smart vegetable farming — examples like this demonstrate how even tiny landholdings can bring massive profits. Harpreet is living proof that creative approaches—even with limited resources—can dramatically change financial stability in the right hands. Today, he’s helping other farmers attain financial independence in as little as one to two years.

Harpreet cultivates more than 34 different types of vegetables. His garden yields pumpkins, ridge gourds, zucchinis, bitter gourds, capsicums, tomatoes, both bitter and pickle chilies, chappan kaddu and ladyfingers. His vegetable season is November through the end of September. During this period, his net profits are over Rs 4-5 lakh after all his expenditure on maintenance etc.

To put it simply, Harpreet grows almost all of his vegetables off-season, enabling him to sell them at much higher prices and profits. And this method reportedly proved to be at least three times more profitable than old staple crops such as wheat or paddy. It gives back yields of 8 to 10 times more!

"Some vegetables can be harvested over eight to nine months, depending on how you manage them. Their yield is 8 to 10 times higher than that of wheat or paddy" - Harpreet

In one example, Harpreet fetched Rs 2.20 lakh from the sale of matar (green peas) grown in merely one acre. In a good year, he sells more than 70–80 quintals of green lobhiya. Selling the produce at the farm gate price at Rs 80–100 per kg, his total income reaches Rs 7–8 lakh.

It all started back in 2017 when Harpreet took the plunge and started off-season vegetable production over 1.3 acres of land. He began with a loan of Rs 30,000 ($500). By harnessing the off-season opportunities, he grew kaddu (pumpkin), tori (ridge gourd), zucchini and matar (green peas). His cause started to pick up steam in late 2021. A friend, Gurpyar, leased him an extra 0.75 acres rent-free and paid for his diesel.

Harpreet leverages modern tools like Google Pay to connect with his loyal customer base, streamlining transactions and enhancing customer relationships. His hard work and unconventional approaches to farming have changed his life, but his family’s—he was able to pay for his daughter’s medical school education!

"My mother once lived in a house without a fan. Today, she has an AC room—but still prefers the fields" - Harpreet

"She even gifted me an iPhone, which I now use to make farming videos. It’s not luxury—it’s dignity" - Harpreet

He is personally invested in more than his own success. His larger vision is to assist every marginal farmer who wishes to learn and help them in realizing a debt-free life.

"I tell every farmer: give me one or two years, and I will help you become debt-free. But you must work hard" - Harpreet

Harpreet’s education is informal—learned through long hours spent at hundreds of kisan melas across Punjab, Haryana, and Delhi.

"I gained all my knowledge by attending numerous kisan melas in Punjab, Haryana, and Delhi" - Harpreet

His success meant he could clear a debt of Rs 5 lakh in 10 months. His ability to pull this off is a testament to the power of his conservation practices.

Harpreet’s story is a testament to the transformative power of innovative farming practices and the potential for small landholders to achieve financial stability. His story, from debt to dang good shape, will be an encouragement to all farm folks looking for more sustainable agricultural alternatives.
