February 7: Traditionally cauliflowers are white in colour. But Ratan Shah, a farmer of Lahan municipality-24, has grown cauliflower of different colors with a different taste, thereby drawing huge crowd along with good price for his produce.    
Shah has produced cauliflowers of purple and yellow colours. Shah said he first saw such colourful cauliflowers when he was in foreign employment seven years ago. After returning home, he brought such cauliflower seeds from neighbour India and planted them in his field. The seeds are five times costlier than normal cauliflower.    
He is now planning to expand his colourful cauliflower farms, after getting good response from the market.

"Because of its different color and taste, it is sold as soon as it reaches the market," said Shah, who is thinking of increasing the production in the coming days.    
Just on Monday, Shah said he sold 16 kgs of colourful cauliflowers at the rate of Rs 200 per kg.    
Meanwhile, large number of people have been visiting his farm to see the rare cauliflowers. "Since there was widespread talk about this cauliflower everywhere, I came to see what it is really like. I am amazed to see it,” said Kusheshwar Yadav, a local head master. -- RSS
