  • Project description
    The purpose of the project is to implement a reforestation activity on the degraded agricultural land of 5 taluks of Chickballapur District of Karnataka, India. The project will generate income to the marginal farmers, both from the sale of forest products and from carbon credits. The speciesto be planted were chosen by participating local families who selected local species which are suited for the agro-climatic zone. Apart from producing fruits, firewood and fodder, the indirect benefits of the project will be moisture conservation in the soil, prevention of soil erosion, improvement of soil fertility by the addition of organic manure, reduction of soil cutting due to run-off water from the hillocks, and maintenance of the regular flow of water in the streams.
