Our natural resources are under increasing pressure as the climate changes at an unprecedented rate, and their capacity to regenerate is being seriously compromised as a result. There are many people whose livelihoods depend on the land and trees now being lost. Land degradation, biodiversity loss, and declining groundwater levels are all issues we regularly see in the dry land parts of Andhra Pradesh, where the bulk of our work is focused. With our long-term strategy for watershed management and drought resistance. Increases in crop yields, fodder production, and water availability have resulted from a resurgence in biodiversity and a recharging of groundwater supplies. The primary aspect of our strategy is to include farmers through village institutions and help them adopt demand-side management approaches for long-term resource management in rural areas.
