Marginal
and Small Farm Systems Crop Intensification Project
The objectives of this project were to assist small and marginal
farmers to escape the gradual process of marginalization, which often
results in landlessness, and to improve their nutritional status.
The project worked to:
- increase the productivity of cropping systems as a whole and
optimize the use of water
- increase labour productivity by making maximum use of available
resources and introducing additional income-generating activities
