The National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (NABARD) launched an agroecology-based programme JIVA that will promote natural farming under its existing watershed and wadi programmes in 11 states.
The JIVA programme will be implemented on a pilot basis in 25 projects across 11 states covering five agroecological zones.
For JIVA, NABARD will collaborate with national and multilateral agencies as this is a knowledge and skill-intensive programme.
NABARD will initially collaborate with the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO), Australia, for simple soil water monitoring technology and ICAR for research support for scientific validation of natural farming practices.
