How a Class 10 dropout in Maharashtra is using AI for everyday farming

A video shared by creator Siddhesh Lokare has brought attention to a farmer from Maharashtra who is doing something a little different. His name is Wable Kaka. He left school after Class 10, but today, he uses AI in Marathi to help with everyday farming decisions.

There is nothing fancy about how he uses technology. He simply picks up his phone to get answers about soil health, insects, and planning farm work. That simple, practical approach is what has caught people’s attention online.

How AI fits into his daily farm work

Wable Kaka grows coconut, jamun, and guava trees. When he has questions, he turns to ChatGPT. He asks about protecting flowers from insects, improving soil quality, and choosing the right time to spray insecticide.

Talking about it, he says, “It even calls me Wable ji now.”

For him, AI is not something complicated. It works like asking someone for advice, helping him avoid guesswork and plan his work better.

Using AI beyond the fields

Technology also helps him outside the farm. Wable Kaka uses AI to think about packaging and create a logo for his produce. This has made it easier for him to stay organised and present his produce better to customers. Over time, AI has quietly become part of how he plans his work, manages his farm, and even sells what he grows.

Helping other farmers

Wable Kaka feels that farming works best when people help each other. He often talks about sharing ideas, experiences, and resources within his village so that no one has to figure things out alone.

He also has a message for young people who hesitate to choose farming. He says, “Farming, in my words, is not a fallback; it’s a way to live a healthier, more grounded life.”

Why his story is being talked about

Many people online have connected with his story. Siddhesh Lokare, who shared the video, wrote, “This isn’t really a tech story. Farming just got cooler using ChatGPT, and Wable Kaka is the real OG of this very vision. This is not a tech story. This is a mindset story. Wable Kaka didn’t wait for the system. He used ChatGPT, AI, branding, and planning and built a digital brain for farming.”

People who visit his farm notice the results too. In one video, Siddhesh tastes a freshly plucked pink guava and is clearly surprised by its flavour. It is a small moment, but it quietly shows that good farming still depends on good soil and care.

A simple way forward

What stands out is how ordinary his approach is. Wable Kaka did not try to change farming overnight. He simply picked up tools that made his work a little easier.

For him, AI is now part of daily life on the farm. Like any other tool, it helps, but the real work still happens in the field.
