The project is towards enhancing the livelihoods
of 600 tribal families in seven select villages
of the Dangs district, by increasing agricultural
yield and productivity through management
of natural resources. The tribal belt of
southern Gujarat is hilly and has limited
agriculture infrastructure. Development
of water resources, combined with agricultural
development, will increase the income of
farmers and employment opportunities in
the villages, thereby reducing distressed
migration of communities. The project would
enable each household to generate an income
of about Rs. 12,000 / annum as against the
baseline of about Rs. 8,000 / annum. At
the inception, a detailed baseline of the
project villages would be carried out to
assess current income from various sources.
