NIRD&PR initiatives tackle rural youth unemployment

Hyderabad, Nov 12 (UNI) The National Institute of Rural Development and Panchayati Raj (NIRD&PR) and Syngenta Foundation India (SFI) are tackling unemployment among rural youth and focusing on improving the plight of farmers in rural India through an Agri Entrepreneurship (AE) model.

An AE brings together services such as credit and market linkage, access to high-quality inputs and crop advisory for a group of farmers. The model is currently active across seven States and, as of October 2018, over 580 AEs are associated with SFI serving over 75,000 farmers. It is going to be scaled up to different parts of the country. State Rural Livelihood Missions are showing keen interest to transform SHG women as AEs.
