Farmers in Sankrail are capitalising on market fluctuations by harnessing rain-shelters and scaffolding to grow vegetables in the off-season; increasing crop income by 128% (Scaffolding) and 45% (rain-shelters) as a result.

With a proven strength in mobilizing and building the capacity of farmers, it was a natural fit when the Indian Council of Agriculture Research (ICAR), on the lookout for a partner to operate the Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK) in Kodinar, Gujarat, commissioned Ambuja Foundation to take up the mantle.

Ambuja Foundation's Pashu Sakhi, Chaya Mondal received the Krishak Samman Award during the Mati Utsab Function in Murshidabad where she was awarded Rs. 25,000 for her efforts in the Goat Based Livelihood Programme in Farakka, West Bengal. Chaya was recognised for her work; treating over 164 goats in her village and for actively creating awareness on goat health in her community.

927 farmers are embracing the use of cow dung and urine to replace costly chemical inputs which impact soil health, and to increase their yield and profitability - thanks to a series of trainings and exposure visits facilitated by Ambuja Foundation.
