Green Saviours, a Belagavi-based NGO, is creating awareness about afforestation and is promoting the practice of agro forestry among farmers in some villages in the district.
As part of Project OMG-(One Millions Greens), it aims at planting 10 lakh trees by December 2025. As part of the project, small farmers are being provided fruit trees to set up agro forestry plots. Nearly 10 acres of land is now being converted from traditional farming to Syntropic Agro Forestry System.
Every Sunday, NGO members take up afforestation or agro forestry activities. “We began in April 2016 and we have planted and maintained trees in and around Belagavi for over 270 Sundays. The team has planted and maintained over 45,000 trees,” a spokesperson of the team Raksha Upadhye said.
