Our team encourages organic farming as part of our strategy
to reduce the impact of chemical fertilisers on fields adjoining prime wildlife
areas. Part of our work includes assistance to villagers in setting up compost
pits.
During November, we motivated and assisted 2 farmers to
prepare compost pits near their farms. On November 22, Niranjan assisted Mr
Ramgopal Thakre, a farmer from Turiya village, in preparing a compost pit. 5
other villagers participated in the voluntary work programme.
A similar such compost pit was prepared near the farm of Mr
Ghanshyam Maraskolhe in Potiya village on November 26. 6 other villagers
participated in the voluntary work programme.
On November 25, Kamlesh
organised an anti-plastic campaign to spread awareness in Thuyepani village.
During the rally, 60 students of Government Middle School participated and
raised slogans on ill effects of plastic waste. During the rally, the students
collected plastic waste along the main road in the village. Plastic waste like
wrappers, polythene carry bags, plastic bottles, etc... were collected. The
students also requested the local shop owners to stop using polythene bags. A
ban on plastic carry bags has been imposed in this area by the state
authorities and the rally helped spread awareness on this issue amongst the
villagers.
On November 27, Niranjan Hinge organised an awareness rally
in Satosha village. 52 students of Government Primary School participated in the
rally. During the month of November, many villagers had spotted a tiger near
the steam flowing near the village. During the rally, the students raised
slogans to spread a message that tiger is not a threat to the villagers. The
students urged the villagers to avoid venturing deep into the forest area to
avoid any conflict.
