Why do Haryanvi/Punjabi farmers still depend heavily on pesticides and other chemicals ? What's stopping us from being sustainable ? And in spite of all of this why do jats still go around claiming "we worship our ancestors and land only" while we are clearly poisoning it

Religious beliefs of Delhi Villages during 1870s

The religion of the Ját is Hinduism; but he does not know very much about it. He talks about Parmeshwar, and the more intelligent men say they believe in only one God, but there is a traditional worship of tutelary village deities (bhumián) which lies really nearer to his heart. The bhumián was once a man, and he has now gained his apotheosis in the half-fond half-fearful superstition of his descendants. The Brahmins say he must be honoured by worship at the thún which has been existing for generations in his name, a pakka built little pillar with places to burn little lamps in, which are used alike by Hindus and Muhamınadans in devotional offices and food distributed to the holy men at this spot is a religious alms giving of spiritual value. When his son is married, he will pay a religious visit to the shrine of the bhumión; and when his cow or buffalo calves, a little of the first milk given will be boiled hard and given as an offering to the deity. Besides the bhumiún there is the gházi mard, a relic apparently of Muhammadan tradition, a tutelary deity too with a difference: the Muhammadans take the place of the Brahmins as regards receipt of beneficences in his name, though both Hindus and Muhammadans worship him. The goddess of small-pox too should have a place of worship like the bhumián in every village of a properly devotional onal turn of mind, but an intelligent Hindu complains that the worship of this personage has gone somewhat out of fashion since vaccination has systematically been practised. Be-sides the local deities, the villager pays great respect to the gods of the various shrines in his neighbourhood. The fairs of the district depend greatly on a religious origin, but the people make the occasion of worship a time of social conviviality and amusement. Excepting the already noticed luck about lucky days, the Delhi zamindár does not care much about demons and other evil spirits. Having seen the railway he has passed that stage: the people believe in the existence of professors of "clairvoyance," men who can tell others "what their wives say fifty miles off." This learning is called bhut bidya (dæmonology) and there was a few years ago a well known professor of it at Nyabáns in Sunipat.
