Revolution for improved agricultural practices with HARIT PRAYAS@Jhansi

कई बार हम बहुत कुछ कर भूल जाते है

अच्छा हुआ बुरा हुआ, कभी नही जान पाते है

गर थोड़ी सी कोषीह की जाए, जो किया उसे एक बार देख ले

तो शायद ना जाने कितनोे की ज़िंदगी में बदलाव आ जाए

थोड़ी  परेशानी ज़रूर होगी,

थोड़ी तकलीफ़ उतनी होगी,

पर यह छोटी सी तकलीफ़ , ना जाने कितनो की ज़िंदगी बदल देगी

हज़ारो चेहरो को मुश्कूराहट से भर देगी

The above line talks about the concept of follow-up in development sector. There is word called “follow-up” which mainly described as ‘an action to increase the effectiveness of the previous action’ and in development sector if we have a proper follow-up of any programme, it results in the form of changing the life of poor people. With HARIT PRAYAS project we have not only initiated the process of follow-up but have institutionalized the process of follow-up of almost each and every process and activity under the HARIT PRAYAS project and this has given the result in the form of ‘ownership amongst the programme amongst the community’.

IMPACT OF Follow-Up in agriculture at HARIT PRAYAS Jhansi

At Jhansi In 2011 the farmers of the project area learnt about an institution which was supposed to assist farmers in sustainable and scientific method of farming through training and demo plots, i.e Krishi Vigyan Kendra (K.V.K). It was sad to know that the target community members/farmers were not aware of existence of such organization in Jhansi District (source: Base Line Survey Report, Harit Prayas Project, 2011). There may be several reasons behind this, but as far as project’s target is concerned, the output- I (source: PMF) deals with promotion of Organic farming among the poorest and marginalized farmers of the target villages.

In order to ensure this the strategy chalked by JCSS team is to go for a holistic approach. In the 1st year of implementation of the project Harit Prayas the team organized a series of village level, block level and District level Training programmes and meetings. In this process the team tried to rope in the Government of India’s organization, with huge resources (technical and non-technical, both) K.V.K.

As a result 95 farmers went for soil testing in the previous year, in Rabi season (source: Monthly Progress Report, October, 2011). The report of the soil test was received in due time and it was shared with concerned farmers. The team members were explained about the technical report and its implication for the farmers.

Now the Kharif season is about to start. The farmers have been motivated to go for soil testing again by the team members. On the basis of the received report, they will be advised by K.V.K scientists and Harit Prayas team on Organic farming and sustainable agrarian practices, which will lead to higher yield and thus increased household income.

Please find the attached report and list of farmers came foreword for the soil testing ( because of the result of the follow-up).

we, here by, submit the list of farmers, who sent sample for soil testing. This afternoon, the samples, along with the list and other details have been sent to Krishi Vigyan Kendra, Bharari, Jhansi.
