Lakhpati Didi Journey
The life of Keshovati Devi has completely been transformed after adopting the Lift Irrigation techniques. Earlier, Keshovati Devi was doing single-crop farming on her 2-acre farm land at Jama Block in Dumka, but after adopting Lift Irrigation, she has been doing multi-crop farming all over the year due to which her income has significantly increased up to Rs. 1.5 lakh. After joining Maa Bhawani Sakhi Mandal in her village, she also received vital assistance to increase her farm-produce under the Lift Irrigation Project, which further gave a push to increase her income. She also extends her knowledge and support to other farmers in the community.
Her story underscores the trans-formative impact of initiatives like the Lift Irrigation Project. By adopting lift irrigation techniques and transforming her life through vegetable farming, Keshovati not only enhanced her livelihood but has also become a source of inspiration for others in the village. With her guidance and the right resources, Keshovati epitomizes the potential for farming to thrive as a viable and prosperous occupation.
