Paddy Waste
Paddy Waste to Income
Helping Indian rice farmers reduce waste burning and boost income.
This project gathers resources and expertise to demonstrate to
small rice farmers in India that they can stop burning their waste
paddy stubble. They can significantly reduce pollution and gain
additional revenue streams. We have successfully completed
pilots in Punjab where we worked with 21 farmers to help them
stop burning the stubble and save money and in Goa, where we assisted a
farmer to start a new business growing mushrooms, employing 5 people.
