Deliverable | Notes |
---|---|
1 - Set of principles and attributes | We have promoted a farmers’ cooperative with 2000 members growing organic food on 12,000 acres of land. It's also a successful business enterprise active in the entire value chain from seed to plate. I am sure our experience will be of help in Deliverable 1. |
2 - Drivers and indicators of sustainable production and consumption | While we have successfully helped change the cropping pattern in this area, we have also been able to bring back minor and major millets and cold pressed oil back into the local diet while being a major supplier of good organic food in the market in south India. I am sure our experience will be of help in Deliverable 2 |
4 - Policy reform proposals/arguments | Our work is considered quite special here and many of our ideas and models have been adopted by govt and quasi govt organisations. |
5 - Training and education tools | We have produced a few videos which are quite good. We also have developed some training material and guides for farmers but they are in Telugu. |
6 - Case studies of food systems | Ours is already a case study that can be used under dry rainfed conditions. |
7 - Workshops/roundtables | We will be willing to host some of these programmes so long as our simple living conditions are acceptable. |
