HOW TO SUPPORT

Agriculture
Production Enhancement
This initiative aims to significantly increase agricultural productivity by diversifying crops, enhancing farming practices, and promoting the adoption of proper Packages of Practices (PoPs), guided by community-based organizations (CBOs). By focusing on agricultural intensification and scaling up activities through CBOs, the program has brought lasting improvements in productivity across the project area.

Benefits
Economic Growth

Increased
Crop Yields

Adoption of standard PoPs leads to improved crop production, especially in cereal and pulse crops, boosting yields significantly.

Economic Growth

Capacity Building
for Farmers

Continuous training and support empower farmers to adopt best practices and become self-sufficient in managing their farms.

Economic Growth

Diversified
Farming

The program encourages crop diversification and the adoption of high-value crops, increasing farm income and resilience.

Economic Growth

Sustainable Farming
Practices

Farmers are trained in sustainable farming techniques, including organic fertilizers, efficient irrigation, and land preparation, enhancing soil health and long-term productivity.

Economic Growth

Enhanced Crop
Protection

Extension services through Community Resource Persons (CRPs) provide ongoing support in crop management and protection, reducing losses and improving harvest quality.

Production Enhancement Program
The program includes a comprehensive range of activities such as technical training, group workshops, leadership development, and the distribution of information materials. These efforts help farmers adopt best practices in areas like seed treatment, crop geometry, and plant protection, leading to more efficient farming.

Mulching: Enhancing Soil Health and Efficiency
Mulching is an effective agricultural practice that involves covering the soil with organic or synthetic materials to enhance soil health. This method helps retain moisture, suppresses weed growth, and improves soil fertility by adding organic matter over time.
Water Harvesting
Trellis System: Optimizing Space and Increasing Yields
The trellis system is a vertical farming technique designed to support the growth of creeper vegetables such as tomatoes, cucumbers, and beans. By guiding plants to grow upwards, this system maximizes the use of limited space and improves air circulation, reducing the risk of disease.
