Environment Conservation/Agriculture/Soil Conservation Program
Environment Conservation/Agriculture/Soil Conservation Program:
Continuing the work from last year Sri Ram Vidyapeeth & DPS Social Society work
very aggressively on this front. The initiative works towards ensuring year-round
food security of communities across the India, promotion of allied livelihood interventions
such as forest based livelihoods, animal husbandry, improved agriculture, etc.,
promoting microfinance through community based institutions; and developing strategic
partnerships with various stakeholders for promoting livelihood of communities.
Amongst other things:
(a) promoting agricultural diversification by demonstrating and popularizing
alternate cropping systems to the presently widely prevailing practice of cultivating
rice, wheat; and
(b) demonstrating the benefits of Integrated Pest. All efforts in this endeavour
are directed to minimize over-exploitation of groundwater, improve soil health and
reduce cost of cultivation through judicious use of agro chemicals. SRV & DPS Social
Society plants this year also around 1500 plants with the help of Horticultural
Department & also organize various awareness for environmental conservation.
