ALT He is a grassroots agricultural innovator and progressive farmer from the Marathwada region. He was honoured with the Padma Shri in January 2026 for his exceptional and transformative contributions to agriculture, specifically in the field of sustainable cotton production. His primary claim to fame is a revolutionary package of cotton cultivation practices that he began developing around 2002–2003. This method—widely known as the Dada Lad Technique—was created to address low yields, rising input costs, and crop failures in the drought-prone regions of Marathwada. Farmers adopting the Dada Lad Technique have recorded nearly a three-fold increase in their per-acre cotton yield, significantly cutting production costs and boosting profit margins by up to 40%. We thank him for his visit and look forward to welcoming him again on Campus!
