Your support could bring meaning into lives –A step towards Social Transformation

Despite availability of water sources like streams and wells, a majority of farmers are dependent on

rain-fed farming.

Agriculture contributes only 15% of our GDP, but provides a direct livelihood for 52% of our

population, and indirectly to 73%.

Poor or non available electric supply and high operational costs of diesel pumps are the reason for

a single crop produced per year.

High labour costs (hiring) and reduction of family members (migration) makes farming nonviable.

Poor farmers with small land holdings who cannot even afford quality seeds, cannot even dream

of using technology to increase the yield for reaping multiple crops.

Women have to walk 500 m to 6 km one way to fetch a pot load of water on difficult terrain

Is it then a surprise that there is large

scale migration to towns and cities,

even if to live amidst squalor &

unhygienic conditions, leaving behind

beautifully landscaped, clean

environments of their villages??

How can we use technology to

create sustainable conditions for the

return of migrants and stem further

migration from villages?

Farm Irrigation Project of 5 HP Solar Pump @ Morawane,

Ratnagiri

Combined effort of Corporate CSR, an NGO & Village

Community of Morawane

Sustainable livelihood for 20 Marginal farmers thru’ sustainable agriculture.

Mr. Mukund Chavan, proud and happy sarpanch of morawane grampanchayat (down Right corner)

Objectives:

1. Significant increase in

the farm income with

multiple crops

2. Stem the migration of

farmers & create an

environment for

others to return.

Project I

Atom Solar

CSR project of amphenol interconnect, @ pabal, rajgurunagar,

Maharashtra

At Pabal, near Rajgurunagar,

Pune, the

Janasangam

Kendra takes

care of children who are poor, homeless or

orphans. The caretaker and his family (Shri

Ghare) are farmers who have

quit farming as unviable

Of the 1 acre plot, 20 guntas was

earlier a farmland dried up due to

non availability of facility to irrigate

the land from existing well

For the past 3 years, diesel &

maintenance costs were daunting.

Hence Mr. Gharehad stopped

farming

Post installation of the solar water

pumping system, Shri Ghare has

been able to farm on 20 guntas of

land.

The entire landscape is now different -

with onions, tomatoes and

brinjals planted by Shri Ghare.

Objectives:

1. Significant increase in income

2. Provide a better diet for the

Community of 600 families.

The women of Dengachimethad to carry water in pots

and vessels on their heads for over a distance of 1000m,

uphill.

The existing diesel pump was unaffordable to operate by the villagers - thereby leaving the

existing water tank located in the middle of the village with out water.

� Visible Benefits of a central storage tank for water near their home.

� Heavy pot loads carried by women weighing approx. 25 kgs – a toll on the health of

women, now a thing of the past.

� Time spent approx. 1.5 hour per round per person to fetch water - now reduced to 10

mins.

� Concerns pertaining to health issues of women addressed.

� Time now productively spent with children and in the fields to support farming.

Project V

Atom Solar

HNIs’ & Corporate folks: from darkness to light

� Despite tall claims of the government about electrification for villages, there

are several villages / wadas within 70 kms of Pune & Nashik without electricity.

� MSEDCL proudly states that villages receiving less than 1513 hours of electricity

per year have a different rate than those with > 1513 hours of electricity. i.e. 4

hours per day.

� Dnyanupur,Andhalegaon (grampanchayat) , is a case study in this presentation

where villagers have seen light in their home after 3 generations (70 years).

Dear HNIs’ & Corporate Members, can we bring light in their homes & lives?

A mere Rs 125000 (incl. transportation & installation) would light up10

homes with 2 LED (4W) bulbs, a table fan and 2 USB ports for mobile

charging with a backup of 6 to 8 hours!
