With the support of Ashraya Hastha Trust, Shakti Organisation is promoting climate-resilient agriculture across 14 villages in Rayagada, working closely with small and tribal farming communities.
The initiative includes protective fencing, mulching, access to quality seeds and seedlings, capacity building, and drum-based drip irrigation systems to improve water efficiency. These interventions have helped reduce crop losses, enhance productivity, and strengthen food and nutrition security.
Over 300 farmers have adopted diversified cropping practices, including climate-resilient crops such as sweet potato. By linking farmers to government micro-irrigation schemes, the programme ensures long-term sustainability, improved incomes, and stronger rural livelihoods.
