Foundries and Farms … More Alike Than You Suppose

May 19, 2016
Farmers and metalcasters are more alike than it may seem at first, and both deserve every consideration for easy and assured availability of resources and respect. To justify this we have deliberated on similarities between their two different avocations, with the purpose of persuading foundrymen and to add a moment of levity to the otherwise a dry routine of challenges we face every day. We hope it will bring some amusement to you, too.

You’ll be surprised to learn how much commonality exists between the circumstances of a farmer and a foundryman.

We invite you to spend a few minutes on a journey through the past and present, to prove to you that farmers and foundrymen are very much alike, and that each merits every consideration for easy and assured availability of resources and respect. To justify this we have deliberated closely on similarities between their two different avocations, with the purpose of persuading foundrymen, and to add a moment of levity to the otherwise a dry routine of challenges we face every day. We hope it will bring some amusement to you, too.

Mr. Srivastava and Mr. Kothari are both degreed professionals at work in the foundry industry in India.
