Project Shyamolima is part of SankalpTaru's Sustainable Agroforestry category, aimed at strengthening agriculture and enhancing farmer livelihoods in West Bengal. As one of India's leading agricultural producers, West Bengal is said to have good farming interventions; however, the state's marginal farmers do not receive a good return on their crops due to low selling rates and limited income diversification. SankalpTaru initiated Project Shyamolima with a pledge to promote biodiversity through the development of a sustainable plantation program, creating an efficient and effective self-sustaining model for project beneficiaries.
Planted across farmlands and community landscapes in West Bengal, this initiative promotes biodiversity while integrating native fruit-bearing tree solutions into traditional farming systems of the state.
Through this initiative, agroforestry-based ecosystems deliver:
Strengthened Agriculture: Integrates native fruit-bearing trees with crops to enhance farm productivity, resilience, and long-term agricultural sustainability
Enhanced Farmer Livelihoods: Diversified income through fruit cultivation reduces dependence on single-crop earnings and low market selling rates
Soil & Water Conservation: Improves soil fertility, prevents erosion, and enhances moisture retention across West Bengal's agricultural lands
Biodiversity Promotion: Encourages ecological balance by supporting native flora and fauna through sustainable plantation programs
Climate Resilience: Helps farms adapt to changing climate conditions and improves carbon absorption across the region
By supporting Project Shyamolima, you contribute to building resilient farming systems that empower farmers while restoring ecological balance in West Bengal.

Project Enrich Biodiversity is part of SankalpTaru's Sustainable Agroforestry category, aimed at strengthening agriculture and enhancing farmer livelihoods through intercropping and biodiversity restoration. In recent years, farmers have been unable to secure optimal profits through traditional farming due to the challenges of food insecurity, destabilization, and migration — threatening the long-term health of both farming communities and local ecosystems. Under this initiative, farmers are encouraged to implement intercropping with agroforestry to help replenish the lost nutrients in their soil.
Planted across farmlands and community landscapes, this initiative promotes biodiversity while integrating intercropping with agroforestry to replenish lost soil nutrients and diversify farm income.
Through this initiative, agroforestry-based ecosystems deliver:
Strengthened Agriculture: Integrates intercropping and agroforestry practices to replenish soil nutrients and enhance overall farm productivity
Enhanced Farmer Livelihoods: Diversified income through multiple fruit and nut varieties reduces vulnerability to food insecurity and market fluctuations
Soil & Water Conservation: Improves soil fertility, prevents erosion, and enhances moisture retention through root systems of diverse tree species
Biodiversity Promotion: Encourages ecological balance by supporting a rich variety of native flora and fauna across farming landscapes
Climate Resilience: Helps farming communities adapt to climate variability and reduces migration driven by crop failure and destabilization
By supporting Project Enrich Biodiversity, you contribute to building resilient farming systems that empower farmers while restoring ecological balance and biodiversity to the landscape.

Chhattisgarh is one of the richest biodiverse states of the country and is known as the rice bowl of central India, for cultivating paddy as its principal crop. As most of the farmers here practice monocropping, their livelihoods are restricted to a single source of income. To support rural farmers of Chhattisgarh, the SankalpTaru Foundation launched its project, Project Hariyar Chhattisgarh to bring relief to the farming community of the state by promoting agroforestry together with multi-cropping. The fruit-bearing trees will help the farmers to become economic resilient and encourage sustainable agriculture.

Plant trees in the Holy State of India for a rich biodiversity. Agriculture in the state of Uttar Pradesh has a major share in the state gross domestic product (SGDP). However, due to climate changes and various other factors, crop failure has become a burden to the farmers, and the farmers have shifted to cash crop farming. In order to help the farmers overcome this problem, the SankalpTaru Foundation initiated Project Harit Uttar in 2020 in various districts of the state. Under this project, we aimed to plant fruit-bearing trees of Mango, Guava, Jackfruit, Lemon, Bel Patthar etc on the lands of various farmer. Since 2015, we have witnessed improvement in the livelihoods of the farmer beneficiaries. The project has become a huge success because of the contributions of our planters and we hope to make it much better with your help and support in the future too.

Large-scale deforestation and its unpredictable weather have led to increased barren lands posing a threat to food security. In pursuit of reviving the fertile soils and rejuvenating the land with greenery, SankalpTaru is actively planting varied fruit-bearing and native plant species on the lands of small and marginal farmers of Bihar. By planting fruit-bearing trees under Project Harit Bihar, you will help us support rural livelihoods, tackle changes in the natural environment, and assist sustainable farming.

Plant Trees for a Greener and Cooler Pune City.
According to the Pune Municipal Corporation’s (PMC) Environment Status Report 2017-18, the city is going downwards as it is unable to deal with garbage, air, water, and noise pollution due to the rising population. The ESR has highly emphasized the importance of trees and urban greenery in order to keep in check the pollution and other health hazards following it in the city.
Keeping in mind the present condition of the state, the SankalpTaru Foundation has expanded its Community Land Plantation Program to Pune, in Dive village, only 35 kms from the main city. With your help and support to increase the urban greenery and improve the state of the city, we will be able to reduce the different kinds of pollution the city is facing, along with recharging the groundwater in the city.
Your contribution towards planting trees in Pune will serve as a great opportunity for the city to transform into a green place. Plant now with us!

Droughts together with technological inadequacy, crop failure, and indebtedness to agricultural loans have been becoming pertinent reasons for farmers’ suicides and migration in Karnataka. By planting fruit-bearing trees under Project Hasiru Sankalpa, you will help the farmers of the state by encouraging the farmers to adopt agroforestry and crop rotation to yield higher produce.

The residents of Uttarakhand are already experiencing the impacts of climate change, such as changing temperatures, upward-moving snowlines, receding glaciers, erratic rainfall, reduction of snow in winter, changed cropping seasons, shifting cultivation zones for certain crops, and drying up of perennial streams, as pointed out in the state government’s action plan on climate change (SAPCC). SankalpTaru introduced Project Protect Himalayas to prevent the migration of local farmers due to adverse impacts of climate change by supporting them with agroforestry. This includes planting fruit-bearing trees in their lands to help them stabilize their livelihoods along with protecting the ecosystem of the majestic Himalayas.

Project Green Leh Ladakh is a mission to support farmers through agroforestry which started with supporting a couple of farmer beneficiaries a few years ago and then slowly turned into a revolution of creating 'Apple Villages' across the region. The fruit-bearing trees that you will plant for the farmers will help this mission of 'Apple Villages' reach a wider scale going forward.

Assam has been recently facing the worst flood situation in decades. The floods and landslides have affected thousands of villages and millions of people, also leading to Large-scale erosion. By planting fruit-bearing trees under Project Kheojia Assam, you will not only help to bring back life on the lands of the state but will also help the rural farmers, living in remote areas of Assam who face challenges due to poor connectivity to the mainstream market chain, sell their fresh produce locally and uplift their livelihoods.
