Jat, Sangali, Maharashtra, 200 acres.

Planning an Eco-farm ... towards self-sustainability

Farming is an activity that provides the basic necessity in life, ‘food’. Realizing this fact, we tried to figure out ecological interventions required on a horticultural farm spread over 200 acres, owned by Mr. Sawant, in Umrani, Jat Dist, Maharashtra, India in 2005-06. It is a semi-arid area with very low rainfall. Treating land as a resource will give much more productivity and food for all including humans & non-humans. Detailed three season assessment and planning was done on this land that takes care of human and ecosystem needs while supporting each other through activities like restoration, organic farming, soil & moisture conservation & diverse native plantations.
