With the arrival of the rabi (winter sowing) season, Adinath Manik Thombare, a farmer from Deulgaon Ghat in Beed gets busy sowing onions on his farm. He says he is relieved growing onions, given that only a few years ago, agriculture was largely unprofitable to pursue in his village due to unavailability of water. In need of solutions, Adinath started participating in training and exposure visits conducted by WOTR, under Axis Bank Foundation’s ‘Sustainable Livelihood Programme’.
Babai Sahadev Selhar, aged 52, and her family, long-time traditional goat rearers in Beed, faced mounting challenges in recent years. Residing adjacent to a forest, their livelihood was threatened by persistent wild animal attacks, resulting in a significant loss of income, nearly a third of their total earnings. In response, Selhar was graciously provided with a goatshed by WOTR, facilitated through the Axis Bank Foundation’s ‘Sustainable Livelihood Programme in Maharashtra’.
