La solución

Covering an area of over 14,900 hectares across three Indian states, the Forest Farms project works with over 12,000 smallholder farmers to plant and nurture new-growth eucalyptus forests throughout the country. By channeling carbon finance to farmers in the states of Odisha, Andra Pradesh, and Chattisgarh, the project provides sustainable income streams that do not rely on cutting down the forest.

El impacto

By collaborating with small-holder farmers, who would not be able to reforest land without the financial support of the initiative, the project can reforest multiple states across the country, tackling the dual issues of deforestation and climate change. New job opportunities and training sessions related to planting techniques, replanting & nursery techniques are created, additionally leading to the upskilling of local workers.
