The  mobile biodiversity seed festival culminates in a Jathra on 13th. This annual festival celebrates environmental spirituality and the return of the Sun on the auspicious Makara Sankranti day with bullock carts, folk singers and 'kollatam', 'burra kathalu' spreading abundant joy along the village roads of Medak. Over 50,000 farmers discuss the issue of biodiversity, local seeds and dryland farming. This year the caravan starts from Machnoor village of Jharasangam Mandal.
