PIDT works with farmers through it’s farmers clubs where the farmers fields are linkedwith local Krishi Vigyan Kendras and become learning and research centers. As an example 600 farmers went through training in System of Rice Intensification, where water requirement for paddy cultivation is much reduced. There was 80% adoption of this technique where the yield in one year jumped 300 %– 500% . Also PIDT has been propagating the growth of vegetables , which was almost non existing in the region and enabled the farmer families to increase their nutrition content. Now large corporates like Reliance are sourcing from the area. PIDT hopes to proceed towards the strengthening of small and marginal farmer collectives. PIDT Zameenalaya is also involved in teaching the school children how to grow their own food.
