PROJECT PROPOSAL OF M/s. HAVILAH GREEN FOUNDATION
M/s. Havilah Green Foundation is a Non-Profit Organisation registered in India under Section 8 of the Companies Act 2013 and licensed by the Government of India to do all activities for the protection of the environment and to engage in the activities of agroforestry, forestry, reforestation and afforestation; and the doing of all such other lawful things as considered necessary for the furtherance of the above objects. The objects of the M/s. Havilah Green Foundation extend to the whole of India.
AGROFORESTRY RESEARCH CENTRE
(A Non-Profit Research Centre for Agroforestry and Afforestation)
Agroforestry Research Centre is a proposed initiative of M/s. Havilah Green Foundation to do further research on the newly invented technology titled “Havilah Bharat” for sustainable agroforestry and afforestation using less water in arid lands. And to establish agroforestry, open vertical farming, and afforestation in arid lands. The water consumption for agroforestry and afforestation through the present technology is less than that of drip irrigation methods. The new method of agroforestry and afforestation technology is the only permanent solution to reverse desertification and protect the environment from damages of climate change.
PROJECT NAME
(A Non-Profit Research Centre for Agroforestry and Afforestation)
Newly proposed project
PROJECT OBJECTIVES
Agroforestry Research Centre is a proposed initiative of M/s. Havilah Green Foundation to conduct research on the newly patented technology for sustainable agroforestry and afforestation using a minimal amount of water in arid lands. The water consumption for agroforestry through the present technology is less than that of drip irrigation methods. The new method of agroforestry and afforestation is the only permanent solution to reverse desertification and protect the environment from climate change. The project, which has shown promising results in the initial stages of use, has yielded great results in terms of agricultural output per acre and has proven to be an effective solution for large-scale agriculture with minimal input resources.
The present project emphasises agroforestry and afforestation in order to tackle the imminent dangers to human civilisation and the planet due to anthropogenic climate change.
The project would determine the correct material conditions to create a self-sustaining forest in arid land; the project would result in a determination of optimum parameters such as suitable vegetation for the area, an appropriate distance between the saplings, and nutritional inputs required in the particular area.
These parameters, when applied with the patented technology, maybe then utilised fully to develop forests in any land of the desired acreage.
PROJECT SUMMARY
Agroforestry Research Centre would utilise the proprietary patented technology to provide adequate nutrients and hydration to the planted saplings in order to support and sustain their growth. The project is eventually stated to be a forest which would be developed in arid lands, where the quality of the soil may be poor to undesirable. The project is expected to be a success regardless of the quality of the soil, because the initial patent pending invention is a multi-storey structure for green open vertical farming, which yields nine times productivity in terms of agricultural output per acre, all the while being in a soilless medium with acute control in nutritional input.
PROJECT STARTING DATE: 17/04/2023
PROJECT COMPLETION DATE: 16/12/2024
PROJECT ACTIVITIES
1). Establishment of Agroforestry Research Centre – The research centre would be an in-situ lab with all facilities required to test the quality of soil, manage the nutritional input, measure of water parameters and quantify all other features of location to effectively develop a self-sustaining agroforest.
2). Research in Agroforestry – The fundamental outcome of the project would be 2. A fully self-sustaining agroforest, and data and information into plant growth in unfavourable conditions, with appropriate metred nutritional and hydration input. Not only would this serve as an insight into the study of trees, forests and their ecosystem, but a glimpse into new agricultural mechanisms, where the plants may be grown in foreign terrains with unfavourable weather and land conditions; this includes drought struck areas and deserts.
3). Research in Afforestation and in arid lands – Since the plan is to enrich our lives by utilising unusable arid lands for the purpose of afforestation, the quality of land is bound to develop as the introduction of trees are bound to introduce and invite other species of fauna and flora. Thus, enabling a self-sustaining forest ecosystem.
4). Research in Reforestation in the desert – Much work is needed to be done in the understanding of desert agriculture. The loose sand and the lack of water are the greatest drawbacks of agriculture in desert areas. Although agriculture in the extreme temperatures of Rajasthan is being practised, they’re not present on such a scale in the deserts for obvious reasons. Since the quality of the soil does not affect the outcome of the project, the nutritional value of the soil doesn’t count for much; however, the loose sand needs some minor fortification to enable the root growth of the trees. This is bound to shed a lot of light on the development of soil and interesting outcomes in desert/high-temperature agriculture. The method of nutrition and hydration remains the same here.
5). Permanent Employment for poor and women and permanent afforestation in such arid lands – The estimation is that each acre of land being developed would require five persons to maintain the saplings and to ensure their productivity growth. The organisation has decided that the local women population would be the best candidates for much of the work, may it be tending to the saplings or research scientists in the lab. For this reason, we are ensuring that 80% of expected permanent employees are women.
PROJECT IMPACT
The project, depending on the acreage, would employ approximate 5 persons per acre. With a minimum of 50 acres and an expected large format of 2500 acres, they would generate permanent employment for 250 – 12500 people. The agroforest would naturally be a sustainable agriculture system which would not only benefit the community at the immediate level and the planet at a greater level, but it would also be a great income opportunity where the rearing of animals or free-range poultry would serve as additional income for local communities. The introduction of poultry and animals would introduce nutrient-rich faeces, which would, in turn support the peripheral plants and develop flora and fauna; which would sustain the ecosystem, creating a biosphere in itself. With the burgeoning population, it is imperative that people find sustenance and well-being outside city jobs, and this would be such a model wherein the bare necessities of food may be availed from the forest, along with salaried employment.
The afforestation and reforestation measures in the more arid and drought struck areas would be a relief for the local population as the project would naturally revitalise the biosphere and sustain the natural environment.
