From Fields to Landscapes: Establishing the resilient productivity of Andhra Pradesh Community-based Natural Farming. Key insights from stakeholder engagement

Export citation

Andra Pradesh has been losing soil organic carbon, plant diversity and above ground biomass at a rapid rate. Key to increasing soil carbon storage is the implementation of farming practices that curb soil erosion and increase carbon inputs across the landscape. The From Fields to Landscapes: Establishing the resilient productivity of Andhra Pradesh Community-based Natural Farming (APCNF) project was established as a holistic approach to address the loss of usable land for agriculture in the state.
