A pause of two weeks during the festive season rejuvenated both the body and the soul. It also offered a valuable opportunity for introspection — to look back on my professional journey and experiences as a career consultant.
The past 18 months spent writing a practical textbook on Food Grains Bulk Storage, followed by a series of webinars and numerous personal interactions, have been a truly enriching experience. Writing this book was, in many ways, an unlearning process — challenging long-held perspectives and re-evaluating practical knowledge. The subsequent discussions and interactions, however, became a new phase of learning, filled with fresh insights and diverse viewpoints.
This cycle of unlearning and relearning has strengthened my passion for the field. I continue to yearn for more learning opportunities and would be glad to welcome further enquiries or discussions on this subject. The driving force behind all these efforts remains steadfast — “Every Grain Matters.”
Working on the execution of silo projects for both FCI and the private sector has been yet another rewarding platform. Each project reaffirms the essence of learning gathered over the years through professional practice and consultancy.
As I look ahead, I remain committed to sharing knowledge, promoting best practices, and advancing the science and efficiency of food grain storage — because indeed, every grain truly matters.
