Ah, this Palampur story is from a textbook, I remember my grandson studying it. Their fixed capital like tractors and working capital like seeds are book figures, but the yields per hectare they quote seem too neat, like a city person's estimate. In my cardamom fields here in Sikkim, the yield is a blessing from the soil and rain, not a fixed number—last year's frost took half of it. These old hands know the real capital is the strength to walk to the *chulo* at dawn, not just rupees in a book.
