Funding for Green India

With the increase in global warming, the effect of climate change can be seen in all the regions. However, the effect on developing countries is much more due to the economic conditions of the lower income group. India being an agrarian country is mostly dependent on monsoon and due to climate change the agriculture cycle is facing a turmoil causing a lot of losses to the farmers and pushing them in debts.

Sustainability and development when brought together can do wonders, hence we decided to inculcate sustainable and affordable agriculture to these farmers' lives by enabling them in agroforestry. Plantation of fruit species along with the normal routine crops will not only green the area but also help in holding the top soil from erosion and increasing the farmers' income by providing him a more source of livelihood.

Agroforestry not only is an attempt to sequester as much carbon as possible using the agriculture lands but also helping farmers mitigate the risk of crop failure by giving them additional source of income.

This rural livelihood support model is our effort to green India along with supporting the farmers.

A single tree sequester 22kgs of carbon dioxide per year. Not only carbon sequestration but the groundwater recharge of the area is naturally done by trees. The main source of our living i.e. oxygen is only provided by these green creatures whether it be a tree or phytoplankton.

Apart from these, the cooling effect provided by them along with many medicinal uses of its NTFP is valuable.

Moreover, these high quality grafted saplings will start providing fruits to the farmers in 2-3 years thus increasing his economic and social condition.

A single tree can provide :

Sequester 1.9 Tonnes of CO2

Provide 3.7 Tonnes of O2

INR 450/- per season income to the farmers on sale of fruits
