Talking about the opportunities available in the Czech Republic, Sandhu said, 'Immigration to Czech Republic under business investor class is a lucrative opportunity for Indian farmers who are willing to invest there. It is an easy procedure and guarantees legal and permanent resident status in the European Union.'

Farmers, who attended this seminar, were also very enthusiastic about these opportunities.

'We have already done miracles on Indian soil and we feel that this is the time to showcase these developed countries our acumen in farming. I have understood everything and very soon I will apply for the Czech Republic,' said Baldev Singh, a resident of Batohi village in Punjab's Patiala district, some 70 km from here.

Prem Singh, sarpanch of Jhurheri village, around 10 km from here, said: 'Sizes of our families have increased manifold while the size of our land is shrinking. Therefore, we have to move out in pursuit of better future for our kids.'

'But one thing is good as we do not require to search for a job there. We can continue our family vocation of agriculture, in which we have vast experience,' he added.
