Answer: Damjibhai did farming in a different way than how Hasmukh did. Damjibhai followed the traditional method of farming. He used bullocks to plough the field. He stored grains to be used as seeds. Hasmukh, on the other hand, started modern or new methods of farming. He bought a tractor to plough the field. Expensive fertilisers were used to grow more crops.
