Nirma, a farmer from Sawai Madhopur in Rajasthan, manages both her household and farm responsibilities with dedication. While working on her farm, she developed severe skin allergies due to unhygienic conditions, making it difficult for her to continue her daily tasks.

During one of the visits by our Mobile Health Unit (MHU), Nirma consulted a doctor, received timely treatment, and learned how to care for her skin in the future. With regular check-ups and medication provided through the MHU, her condition has improved significantly.

Today, Nirma is back to working comfortably in her fields, feeling healthier and more confident. She also encourages other women in her community to get regular health check-ups and prioritize their well-being.

Milan Devi, a small farmer from Satrampur, saw a real difference in her income last year. By buying seeds and selling her maize and paddy through her FPO – Kisan Ekta – she saved money on inputs and got better prices for her crops.

She no longer has to depend on local traders for quality inputs or to sell her crop. By buying directly and selling through the FPO, she avoids hidden losses and gets fair prices for her produce.

Milan Devi's journey mirrors the positive change experienced by over 3,000 women farmers across Bihar who are finding strength and prosperity by working together through FPOs. It truly shows the power of collaboration in agriculture!
