The Farmers Sector Provisional Fund (FSPF) project, supported by NABARD, was launched in 2022–23 to enhance livelihood opportunities for small and marginal farmers in Balasore district. With an investment of ₹21 lakh, the project focuses on promoting diversified agriculture practices beyond traditional paddy cultivation. Implemented in Basta block, the initiative covers the Gram Panchayats of Chormara, Darada, Mukulisi, and Kulida, benefiting 100 farmers. The project encourages vegetable farming, improved cropping systems, and modern cultivation techniques to increase productivity and income. Through training, field demonstrations, and technical support, SPARSHA helps farmers adopt sustainable, climate-resilient agricultural practices. The program aims to strengthen food security, reduce dependency on single-crop farming, and build long-term resilience within rural farming communities.
