Healthy land.
Resilient livelihoods.
Supporting small and medium-scale farmers through knowledge, sustainable cultivation, and local connections.
Learning with farmers
CADRE-India’s agriculture work in Kanyakumari promotes organic practices and reduced dependence on chemical inputs. Farmer education connects crop management with locally relevant knowledge.
From soil to household
Programme objectives include kitchen gardens, vermicompost units, and exchanges among farmers, researchers, traders, and policymakers.
Medicinal and aromatic plants
The documented programme supports conservation, propagation, and cultivation of medicinal plants. It brings together species selection, indigenous knowledge, sustainable harvesting, and market connections.
Adding value locally
Market information and value-addition opportunities help farmers consider the wider potential of their produce. The earlier programme identifies CAPART as an alliance partner.
