About Agriculture & Farmhouse

Agriculture Vastu covers 50 patterns for farm properties — farmhouse entrance, granary (Dhanya Griha) in the Southwest, cow shed (Goshala) placement, poultry houses, pump houses, well positioning, crop row orientation, and boundary fencing. Drawing from Krishi Parashara and Brihat Samhita, these rules honour the earth element and optimize the Pranic field of agricultural land.
