•Direct Seeding of Rice (DSR)—an innovative, resource-efficient cultivation method that eliminates traditional transplanting. DSR significantly reduces water usage, labor costs, and methane emissions, paving the way for sustainable farming while improving profitability for farmers. By integrating this approach, we help farmers achieve climate-smart agriculture and contribute to global emission reduction efforts
•Zero-till farmingis a game-changing agricultural practice that eliminates traditional plowing, preserving soil structure and moisture while reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This method boosts soil health, cuts labor and fuel costs, and enhances carbon sequestration, empowering farmers to achieve higher yields sustainably
•Abstaining from Crop Residue Burning: We advocate for climate-smart alternatives to crop residue burning, offering farmers sustainable solutions that enhance soil health, reduce emissions, and unlock additional income streams through carbon credit opportunities. Together, we can transform agricultural practices into a force for environmental change
EXAMPLES of Afforestation, Reforestation and Revegetation:
• Timber plantations offer a sustainable solution for meeting global wood demands while combating deforestation and climate change. By fostering well-managed timber production, we enable carbon sequestration, biodiversity preservation, and long-term economic returns. These plantations not only serve as renewable resources but also contribute to emission reduction and resilient ecosystems, aligning with global sustainability goals.
• Fruit tree plantations are a powerful tool for combining environmental restoration with economic benefits. These plantations enhance carbon sequestration, improve soil health, and support biodiversity while providing sustainable livelihoods through fruit harvests. By promoting fruit tree planting, we empower communities to combat climate change, secure food supplies, and create lasting economic opportunities.
