Building Climate Resilience through Afforestation, Reforestation & Agroforestry
Context
Pre-Project land lying fallow, degraded land due to continued deforestation and soil degradation because of extensive cattle grazing, land development works, poor farming and water harvesting practices, and so on. Also, small landowners/ farmers are not actively engaged in soil health restoration projects which are crucial for effective climate-change mitigation.
Context
Project Activity
The proposed project involves carbon sequestration through Afforestation and Reforestation in discrete parcels of fallow or degraded land with a focus on Small Landowners/ Farmers/ Tribals who otherwise do not have the capability for plantation without external financial support. The Project enhances Ecosystem Services and Biodiversity Protection too.
