The overall goal of Repurposing the US $10 million is to achieve the food security by maintaining nutritional standard, while increasing the crop yield through developing, small and medium scale irrigation infrastructure at a grass-root level. It also aims to directly support the farmer community (through CBOs) on essential rural development.

Objectives

• To provide immediate direct benefits among the vulnerable farmer community, who are affected due to the present economic crisis.

• To ensure the efficiency of water distribution, improvement of water productivity and re-cultivation of abundant fields.

• To provide direct and immediate benefits to the farmers, who are adversely affected by the impact of Covid-19 and affected due to unavailability of chemical fertilizers.

• To uplift livelihoods and ensure the food security of farmer community.

• To contribute for mitigation and adaptation measures on adverse climate changes.
