A Clever Farmer Story


(This is a story of a clever farmer, who lives on the hillside where farmers do terrace farming.)

Once a farmer bought a field near a hillside. He, then bought a pair of bullocks and began ploughing his field happily. Hardly had he ploughed half of the field when a tall man came and cried out angrily, "Hey, you there, my house is at the foot of this hill. What are you doing on my terrace?"

Please do not get angry, be calm, replied the farmer. He said further, "I am ploughing the field to sow the seeds. When I grow the crop, I shall share the harvest with you every year. One year you take what grows below the ground and the next year you take what grows above the ground.

The tall man was pleased. He had no idea of the famer's plan of fooling him.


The first year, the farmer sowed wheat. He took all the wheat as it grew above the ground and gave the roots to the tall man which were below the ground.

The tall man got angry. He told the farmer that the next time he would take the part which would grow above the ground. The farmer agreed.

The next year the farmer grew groundnuts. When the crop was ready, the farmer took all the groundnuts as it grew below the ground. The poor tall man got only the leaves which were above the ground.

In this way the tall man was fooled by the farmer again.

Cleverness is not wisdom.
