Mission Samriddhi is building a collective farming of 300 acres by pooling in farmers of Shiratoki village, Yavatmal. The farmers were making less than 30,000 to 40,000 per acre.
MS design team consisting of 12 members with agriculture, water and social community experts, program managers, chartered accountants, terrain designers, market linkage experts and sustainable model designers have been working for the last 8 months on this project.
They need to design a capacity of 160 million litres of water storage for the next 2 crops. They are digging 18 ponds of 100 ft by 100 ft by 10 ft. All the large JCBs and large machines reached the site yesterday. There is a Bhoomi Pooja on 16th March at the site.
This kind of collective farming is getting designed among very few project heard.
