Purpose
When NM Sadguru Foundation began its work, the initial focus was on developing irrigation systems to support rain-dependent farmers. Access to reliable water transformed agriculture—enabling consistent crop production, reducing food insecurity, and helping families achieve self-sufficiency.
Water Harvesting
Sustainable Farming
With food security ensured, efforts then turned toward making agriculture more profitable. Through capacity building and training in improved crop practices, farmers gained the knowledge and skills to enhance productivity.

This included increasing cereal production and encouraging farmers to grow high-value crops such as vegetables, tubers, flowers, and fruits—offering a steady income throughout the year.
