10 Expected Outputs Incremental household income/others (Rs 30,000/yr)
11 Outcomes at the end of project
Improved food security
What is the strategy? (Mention the strategy-specific to POP)
5
Identification and selection of the PoPs from ULTRA poor families (Landless, SC/ST, Minority etc.) by the community at the village level
Mobilize the PoPs into MKSHGs and involving them into group activities including bank linkages
Get MKs engaged into a set of Key-livelihood activities-in agriculture & Livestock based interventions
Adoption of SA practices both at home and community levelto augment healthy foods (Home & Community nutrition garden, Grain & Seed bank)
What is the strategy? …. cont
6
System approach for crop intensification (SRI, SWI, SMI ,TPS etc)
Introduction of crops (Broccoli, Red cabbage, Carrot, King chilly, Brinjal etc.) in both home & community garden,
Instead of use of chemical, making of Vermi compost , Bio compost & Liquid manure compulsory.. recycling of farm ,domestic wastes & domestic water in Pitcher irrigation
Income generation through small animal based livelihood activities through backyard farming system (pig, goat & poultry)
What is the strategy? …. cont
7
Introduction of drudgery reducing women friendly technologies & equipment
Specific to landless MKs, adoption of lease-based partnership of land (Pub-Pvt, Pvt-Pvt) on sharing basis on seasonal fallows, field dikes ,CPR & pvt lands
Capacity building through staggered training, all season intensive handholding, exposures
HOME GARDEN CONTAINS—

SEASONAL VEGETABLES-Pumpkin, Brinjal, Veindi, Bitter & bottle gourd, Indian spinach, Green chilly, Kundri, Pigeon pea, Elephant foot yam, Ginger,Tomato, Cauli flower, Cabbage , Radish etc.
* Home scale vermi compost pit * Bio compost * Liquid manure * Pitcher irrigation. (In dry land areas)Annual production—360 to 400 kg
COMMUNITY GARDEN PRODUCES
9
Partnership mode (Pub-Pvt, Pvt-Pvt) on sharing basis for the Landless.
Summer & rainy season (Multiple tier cropping pattern) —Brinjal, Veindi, Bitter & bottle gourd, Ridge gourd, Sponge
gourd, Pumpkin, Leafy vegetables, Soya bin, Elephant foot yam etc.
Winter season—French bin, Tomato, Ginger, Carrot, Beet, turmeric, Onion,
Broccoli, Radish, Coriander, Mustard, Green methi, Leafy Vegetable, Cauli flower, Cabbage, Red cabbage, Chilly etc.
