Eco India Premiere: The women farmers in Maharashtra who are fighting for their right to own land

Stepping into its third season, Eco India continues to bring you stories that inspire to build a cleaner, greener and better tomorrow.

For our first story this season, we take you to eastern Maharashtra where women farmers are learning how to preserve seeds and grow nutrient-rich vegetables, grains and tubers using organic farming techniques, under a programme known as the ‘one-acre-model’ of women-led climate resilient farming.
