Dignity of Life through Sustainable Livelihood

Introduction Kodasiya Gram Panchayat is located in Lailunga block of Raigarh District. While 95% of households primarily depend on agriculture, only 5% have irrigation facilities. The villagers mainly relied on rainfall for cultivation. The farmers were facing problems due to the degradation of natural resources and low agricultural production. The water conservation approach in cultivation was in high demand. The groundwater recharge was low due to sloppy and undulating terrain and high run-off.
