IAF officer wrote this by tweeting

IAF officer Praveen Kaswan tweeted, 'When wheat used to be Rs 1.6 per kg. My grandfather had sold the wheat crop to the Food Corporation of India in 1987. He also said that his grandfather had a habit of keeping records. The official further said, 'This document was called J Form. His archive contains all the documents of the crops sold in the last 40 years. One can study on this' After seeing the post, many people gave their feedback. Users were amazed by the price of wheat and appreciated the habit of the officer's grandfather.

Grandfather has kept these old papers

One user wrote, "Amazing. The elders of that time used to write full details of every penny spent. This is how records of the crop sold by them should be kept. This in itself is a lot to learn." Another user commented, "J Form, the most important document for the farmer." 'J Form' is an income proof for a farmer who sells his crop and was earlier issued manually by commission agents. Before the digitization of J Farm, many agents used to keep these forms with themselves instead of making them available to the farmers.
