Teaching Sustainable Agriculture to Young Tamils

Organization information

VOICE Trust

Location: Tiruchirappalli, India

Summary

The rural areas of Tamil Nadu are home to some of the poorest Indian communities with few employment opportunities. We're teaching children and young people to embrace the organic, eco-friendly way of farming that uses seed banking, natural fertilizers and pesticides, multi-cropping, and drip irrigation to produce more abundant, more nutritious harvests. Lower costs and higher yields make farming an attractive occupation. Save the family farm, save the planet.
