All Causes

- Corporate Social Responsibility

Agriasha believes that the Corporate World including FMCG Brands have a onerous responsibility on the part of the community to nurture and harness the Biodiversity and preserve the Ecosystem.
We play a vital role in establishing social integration between the Corporate and the Society by conducting periodic road shows, annual events and year long programs. The areas of our CSR facilitation are;
– Primary Health Care & Education
– Water Purification & Supply , Sanitation
– Tree Plantation in Agrarian space
– Eatable Plantation Program
– Skill Development and Fair Trade
– Creation of Localized/ region brand from Zero Km Produce
– Renewable Energy Stations
– Wetland Preservation, Forest Conservation & Green Links

People –Prosper – Planet
Agriasha solicits Corporate membership under the “People Prosper Planet ” – where business houses develop the right approach to promote integration of biodiversity considerations into business practices in an established forum for sustained and strategic dialogue about the links between business and biodiversity. All supporting Companies receive the digital Icon on validation with certificate.

- Responsible Procurement Protocol

The Foundation collaborates with large Food Manufacturers/ Brands for sustainable procurement protocols of harvest such as vegetables, fruits, poultry, fishery, spices and other produce from growers/ cooperatives and bodies in the most effective manner under responsible sourcing policy.
We adopt unique evaluation criteria for differentiation of Produce Quality of each region to authenticate and follow the secured protocol from hygiene, sanitary to technical aspects. We promote the integration of biodiversity criteria in labels, standards and agri-food certifications, to improve the performance of companies and farmers and the information that consumers receive.

We work creating alliances, promoting innovation to make conservation and development compatible

Sustainability must be understood as a shared responsibility, and the conservation of our natural values goes through finding benefits for the different interest groups that coexist in the territory Please connect with our Management Trustee for further elaboration on the schemes available to facilitate this activity.

- Bilateral Social Projects

We undertake projects in consortium with entities of European Commission through various instruments as well as initiatives, to achieve the United National Sustainable Development Goals.
Our commitment to sustainable development also includes areas that share the same environmental problems, aggravated by diverse socio-political situations as in Bangladesh, Nepal, Bhutan, Sri Lanka, Maldives, Cambodia, Thailand, Vietnam, Philippines and other countries in SAARC
In many projects, we work in alliance with other NGOs, Clubs & Communities to strengthen the social fabric and for consistent management on local level.
Our priority lines of action are:
– Local economic development
– Biodiversity
– Climate Change
– Sustainable tourism
– Conservation and sustainable management of ecosystems
– AI Data Challenge Programs related with Global Agricultural issues and resolution

- Biodiversity Action Program

The intensification of agriculture and the exploitation of agricultural land have made this activity one of the main causes of loss of biodiversity. However, biodiversity on a farm can be improved through good agricultural practices, with ecological infrastructures and soil and water management being of particular importance.

Recovering organic matter from the soil is key and for this we implant green covers, we evaluate how and when to carry out an adequate fertilization, and we promote traditional practices such as fallow or rotation with legumes.

Maintaining water points, restoring hedges or groves, and creating strips of natural vegetation that attract pollinators are some of the measures that offer tangible results for biodiversity at the foot of the field.

The Objective is also development of the crop according to agronomic criteria that are considered fundamental within the usual rotations of irrigated crops in CyL. For this, dissemination actions will be carried out to publicize the cultivation and trials carried out in the project, as well as training actions for technicians from cooperatives and processing companies. In addition, there will be:

– Essays of evaluation of the existing qualities in CyL, with monitoring of varieties, sowing dose, bottom fertilizer, cover and final quality in harvest evaluating parameters such as production, specific weight, vitrosity, protein and color.
– Evaluation of the crop cycle and incidence on pests and tolerance to diseases.
– Evaluation of qualities obtained under different ranges of humidity, soil science, rainfall and altitude. Determination of optimal harvest parameters.
– Economic evaluation of the culture in CyL. Carrying out an adapted cultivation protocol.
– Planting planning to obtain desired output
– Trials with varieties in micro plots, identification work of the quantity and type of protein in the different varieties , that allow to produce high quality produce. Including study of the protein profile, vitrosity, quality,
– A study of vulnerability to climate change on cultivation and sustainable measures of adaptation to climate change will be proposed to increase the resilience of this crop in the expected climate change scenarios. With all the results obtained, an online guide will be published and results presentation days will be organized

- Climate Change Adaption Program

The agricultural sector is the second emitter of greenhouse gases within the diffuse sectors but it can also act as a carbon sink.

This initiative aims to demonstrate how various measures can favor the adaptation to climate change of livestock farms, herbaceous crops and permanent crops. The possible environmental benefits of such measures are also discussed. The entities participating in the project work closely with farmers and ranchers, administrations, associations, schools of agricultural engineering and private entities, in order to develop transferable results.

This project is currently on conception and research stage and would be implemented upon availability of successful viability report together with the consensus of sponsors for implementation in the main Climate Risk Regions of India.
