The said farm is located at Gazipur village 9 km. away from Mandla town on Mandla – Jabalpur road. Since this land was never under cultivation and was densely covered with vegetation however, this year site has been cleared from bushes and shrubs with the financial support of Jila Panchayat Mandla. Moreover, back flow of river Narmada has created deep ravines (about 30 feet deep) at many places which has divided farm into 8 small patches.
