Activities under Environment Project:
All plants use sunlight, water, soil nutrients, and carbon dioxide to generate energy and to grow. Over time, this leads to a net reduction of carbon in the atmosphere. It’s important to remember that forests are not just trees. Our project will helps to reduce Global Warming.
Identify small and marginal farmers scientifically.Empowering rural communities towards climate action & sustainable development.
Provide advice and training in Agro forestry based cultivation, Soil Conservation,best plantation practices and use of environmental friendly technologies by Our organization Technical experts.
Saving of valuable foreign exchange by producing wood and non wood for perfume and construction industry and thereby reducing the dependence on timber imports.Development of suitable agro forestry models through research in collaboration with Govt institutions and private organization.
To enhance their negotiation skills to take advantage of the international mechanisms. Conservation of biodiversity through reduced dependence on natural forests Production of raw material to the paper industry locally thereby reducing the cost of transportation and consumption of fossil resulting in reduced emissions.
Arrange seedlings produced from Seeds, Air layering method or clonal technology to the farmers to raise high density as well multiple plantations.Promote farmer-industry partnerships with buy back arrangements to purchase Timber and Non tember wood.
Encourage farmers to go for agro-forestry practices such as inter-cropping during the first year to meet their subsistence costs.Generate additional income from carbon credit to thefarmers. Develop and strengthen the capacity of small and marginal farmers, govt, FPOs and NGOs.
We have also been able to engage businesses in addressing issues of social responsibility and environmental sustainability along their supply chain and more recently, to engage upon climate action projects in line with the Paris Agreement and the Sustainable Development Goals ( UNO SDG GOALS ).
AGRO FORESTRY BASED SUSTAINABLE AGRICULTURE
Sustainable agriculture frequently encompasses a wide range of production practices, including conventional and organic. We are encouraged A regionally integrated system of Food,Fodder, Fruit & Forest plant and animal production practices are designed to produce long-term results in Agro forestry based sustainable Agriculture System.
Importance of this system:
• Production of sufficient human food, feed, fiber, and fuel to meet the needs of a sharply rising population
• Protection of the environment and expansion of the natural resources supply
• Sustainable of the economic viability of agriculture systems
• Increase profitable farm income
• Promote environmental stewardship
• Enhance quality of life for farm families and communities
• Increase production for human food and fiber needs
• Engage farmers and ranchers in the development and adoption of practices that are profitable and environmentally sound.
• Support research and education intended to help farmers and ranchers mitigate and adapt to climate change
• Improve production efficiency, productivity, and profitability
• Address threats from pests and diseases
• Improve the quality of surface water and groundwater resources
Afforestation and Reforestation
Reforestation is the process of increasing trees in an existing forest, while afforestation /Social Forestry is the process of creating a new forest.
In today’s world, the rate at which trees grow naturally in forests is much slower than the rate at which trees in forests are being cut down for production. The increased demand for tree products has put pressure on forests resulting in deforestation.
Afforestation is helping alleviate the pressure on natural forests by providing an alternative source of tree products. It is mostly done for commercial purposes.
Afforestation has been one of the hot topics concerning global warming. Global warming and climate have dominated the world due to its major implications our planet has starting to face.
Politicians, leaders, individuals,NGOs, organizations and governments have campaigned heavily for ways to reduce the effects of climate change and global warming. Afforestation and Reforestation are two of the most brought up topics when it comes to solutions to global warming.
Afforestation is of high importance to ensure continued sustainability of our planet and here we will look at the importance, advantages, disadvantages and even major efforts of Afforestation
Afforestation allows people to plant tree species more in demand so that they can be supplied to customers requiring it for various purposes.
Afforestation helps to develop and restore long lost ecosystem areas. They also help to increase species biodiversity within those regions
Our Organization Mainly Focusing on Integrating community forest management with reviving degraded land and indigenous species through afforestation, conservation & assisted natural regeneration. Our social forestry programs lay powerful impetus for creating carbon sinks while creating alternate livelihood opportunities for the forest communities. Focusing strongly on monitoring land-use changes.
Advantages of Afforestation
A constant supply of forest products
Prevents soil erosion
Stabilizes the climate
Better quality air
Improve watershed
Preservation of wildlife
Provision of employment and economic opportunities
Has the potential of reversing global warming and climate change
