The inspirational trips with Aatapi to see the how women’s groups worked have opened the doors of my world

The inspirational trips with Aatapi to see the how women’s groups worked have opened the doors of my world. I understood the advantage of collective efforts after our visit to a women’s collective in Kutch. Forming a group of widows was my first step; next we formed the Ujaas mandali, a collective of self-help group members. Being a member of Ujaas helped me procure a small loan to start my own business. Through Aatapi, I learnt about farming and animal husbandry. Whenever there is a meeting of the Ujaas at Bharuch we are invited. I am no longer afraid to travel alone, anywhere. Our mandali, Ujaas is functioning efficiently and for this I have received an award as the best woman President of bachat mandalis from Gujarat Rajya Sahakari Sangh in Bharuch district.

After adopting natural farming, input costs decreased, vegetable income grew, and soil health improved.
My costs reduced, income increased, and I feel confident farming naturally.

Bhavishaben Patel, Woman Farmer, Samoj Village “I stopped using chemical fertilizers after learning natural farming. My input costs reduced, and my vegetable income increased. The soil is healthier now, and I am confident farming even in changing weather.”
