A Better Tomorrow

Stories, Practices, and Solutions

Kavili Bal Reddy, a farmer from Appireddipally in Narayanpet mandal owns 7.5 acres of land on which he has been growing paddy in both Kharif and Rabi season for decades. That’s when Reddy decided to do something different. As part of the Farmer Field School (FFS) organised by WOTR under the Axis Bank Foundation’s Sustainable Livelihoods Programme, Reddy learnt about the concept of cultivating Green Manure Crops (GMCs).
Bingi Ramulu, a 52-year-old farmer from Ammireddipally village in Narayanpet, had lost hope in his eleven-acre rainfed plot ever turning a profit. Determined for solutions, he joined one of the 15 Farmer Field Schools (FFSs) in Ammireddipally, part of the Axis Bank Foundation’s Sustainable Livelihoods Programme, run by WOTR.
