With your support Sahyog has been able to make headway with their plans to support people in building sustainable livelihoods. Organic Farming is being introduced to farming families. In coordination with the Agricultural Department, Sahyog organizes a series of meetings and trainings on organic farming these included: o Crop Demonstration training for 189 participating families (in preparation for the Spring 2010 crop) o How to manage seeds and seed-saving practices o Vermicomposting units to produce nutrient rich soil. In the past year, 10 units that have produced 1550kg of manure which will be used in three villages, Bharave, Ghodaghati and Viiriya. Not only will this help plant growth, it will also retain moisture for longer, essential in a drought year.
