Bebe Di Rasoi, Bhatinda to aware about abusive use of agro chemicals

Ecological Agriculture Movement’s Women Group gets huge success
in marketing of traditional foods. Ladoos of Jowar, Bajra, Makka,
Makki di roti and sarso ka saag and Kheer-maal poore were
available.
Background : KVM has been working in Bhotna
village since 2006. Shortly after started working in Bhotna,
ecological agriculture among the women was also initiated.
Initially it was confined to awareness about environmental health
problems and its roots in abusive use of agro chemicals in fields.
After adoption of Bhotna village as part of Tata Trust sponsored
CSA-KVM project in 2008 several focused activities were
started.
Now near about 50 women are practicing organic kitchen
gardening. These are those women who come to attend our meetings
and the exact number of women practicing organic kitchen gardening
is more than this. Even our work is spreading in nearby villages
also.
DDS and CSA work among the women through SHGs inspired KVM to adopt
the successful model of women groups to undertake several
commercial activities within ecological agriculture fold. So KVM
made a women group in the village so that they can take this
movement ahead and spread the words.
KVN has already organized village level food festivals and one food
festival at Chandigarh at large scale. This year KVM also had a
small trail of commercial food stall at Bhotna where we got good
response. Women group earned rs 1357. It gave women confidence to
do such event in the open public program.
Bebe Di Rasoi at Prof Mohan Singh fair, Bathinda :
From 4th Nov to 6th Nov, this group organized Bebe Di Rasoi –
traditional food stall at Professor Mohan Singh fair at Bathinda.
On this food stall ladoos of Jowar, Bajra, Makka, Makki di roti and
sarso ka saag and Kheer-maal poore were available. The inauguration
of our food stall was done by Jagdev Singh Jassowal, a former
minister of Punjab and Patron of fair by eating ladoos of Jowar. On
this three days fair, we not only sold food but also make aware
people about the food and medicinal-health value of this food.
Punjabi film actor Satish Kaul also visited our food stall. Media
also covered this food stall.
The investment made by women was 13950 and they earned 30330 so net
profit was Rs. 16380. Every women get Rs 2700 as her share from net
profit. We got three offers to organize this event at another fairs
also. So we got a good response from the people and we had a
wonderful experience. Now we are formally registering Women
SHG.
I hope it will boom our ecological agriculture movement in Bhotna
village, thanks to SDTT and CSA for enabling us to take-up such
initiatives.
