Project Report | Apr 26, 2022
Helping Farmers Learn Best Farming Practices

By Atul Lekhra | Programme Incharge

Noji, a 33 years old farmer lives with her three children in a tribal village in our working area. She has been cultivating seasonal crops as per the availability of water in nearby shared water resource. Noji came to know about Seva Mandir’s agriculture program and showed her willingness to participate. Under the project, she received training on best farming practices along with 25 kgs garlic seeds. She was convinced to use only farmyard manure in her field instead of pesticides as promoted in the project.

As a result, last year, she harvested 2.3 quintals of garlic. After putting aside supplies for home consumption and next year’s seed, she sold the rest and earned Rs. 10,350 ($139). She is happy that she learned advanced techniques of farming and the profit she is making now will take care of the education of her children along with many other basic needs.

"These are uncertain times. Farming has helped us manage our houses throughout the year. The support and knowledge we received from Seva Mandir is a big help." says Noji.


This is just one of the stories of how your contribution is enabling Seva Mandir to support small farmers lead a dignified life. We hope that you continue to create opportunities for more small farmers to come out of the vicious circle of poverty.

Thank you so much.

Regards

Atul Lekhra & the Seva Mandir Team
