The story

How the work runs on the ground.

Backed by NABARD, SEARCH facilitated the creation of 6 Farmer Producer Organizations (FPOs) across Guntur and Prakasam districts. This intervention focused on institutional building, ensuring farmers had direct access to forward and backward market linkages, ultimately increasing their negotiating power and profitability.
