Why farmers trust a film in their own dialect

Translation gets the words right. Transcreation gets the farmer to stop scrolling.

A product film translated from English into Hindi is understandable. A film written in the Hindi of Shekhawati, with a jingle a farmer in that district would hum, is memorable. The difference shows up at the dealer counter.

Language is identity

Farmers hear dozens of company messages every season. The ones that sound like home — the right crop name, the right unit, the right joke — feel like advice from a neighbour rather than a pitch.

How we write

  • Native writers draft first, in the target language.
  • Local crop, pest and unit names are used throughout.
  • Songs are re-sung, not subtitled.
  • One campaign idea, many local executions.

It costs a little more than translation. It is almost always worth it.
