About the State 

On the West coast of India lies Karnataka, a picturesque state boasting a diverse landscape of coastline, mountains, and rivers. Despite its abundant sunshine and favorable monsoons, the state faces challenges with decreasing forest cover due to rapid development.

The project Green Karnataka endeavors to benefit both the large farmer community and the environment by planting trees strategically, addressing farmer concerns, and fixing a minimum of 0.25 MT of carbon with each contribution.

Impact in Numbers 

We will plant 200,000 trees in Project Green Karnataka.

Carbon Fixed  250 Kgs per tree.

CO₂ reduction from the atmosphere by 900 Kgs per tree.

The positive impact will reach 5000 farmers.

Ecological impact

Preserve Karnataka’s amazing wildlife by planting trees and nurturing a diverse ecosystem. Our experts select trees based on soil conditions, water availability, and temperature range, ensuring every planted tree contributes to the state’s biodiversity and sustains the lives of animals and birds.

  • The trees planted shall help in controlling the soil erosion. With floods coming every year, more soil gets washed away impacting the farmers and wildlife alike.
  • The project shall be able to increase the number of trees that are less in number in the state. The trees that have been harvested for timber are very small in number.
  • Increase in the overall green cover of the state. The state has a forest cover of 20%. This needs to be increased to mitigate the growing pressure of the population.

Positive impact on farmers

  • Farmers get high-quality saplings to plant on their lands adjacent to the forests. Fruit trees, Timber trees, Medicinal plants.
  • Increase in the farmer income by 10% over a 5-year period of time.
  • Better economic conditions of the farmers help in getting education for the children, and nutrition for the family.

About the Project: Green Karnataka

Project Green Karnataka. is an ongoing project to help achieve increased greenery in the state. In this project, we identify sites and reach out to farmer groups to plant trees on their lands near forest areas. We identify high-quality seedlings of fruit trees, timber trees, medicinal plants, and forest trees, and then plant them on the farmers’ lands. Additionally, we explain to the farmers how to raise them, providing insights into best practices and the benefits they will receive in the next 2, 5, 10, and 20 years.

Furthermore, experts make periodic visits to monitor progress and guide the farmers. We record the current condition of the farmers and forest cover on a platform, updating it during every visit to track improvements. The project continually identifies new sites and farmer groups to spread the benefits to all.

Technology

Furthermore, the project team actively geotags the trees, ensuring precise tracking of their locations. GPS technology is utilized to mark the area boundary accurately. Notably, farmer details, including relevant images, are diligently captured and securely stored through mobile apps directly from the field. This comprehensive data collection process enables the project to maintain a robust database.

Additionally, the project calculates the yearly carbon fixation by employing expert-developed equations specific to different tree species within the app. Integrating these calculations into detailed reports offers valuable insights into the project’s environmental impact. Throughout the entire data acquisition, storage, and analysis process, the project maintains total transparency, ensuring the reliability and integrity of the information collected. This commitment to transparency allows for informed decision-making and effective monitoring of the project’s progress.

Impact assessment

Particularly, the project team actively measures the impact it creates for both wildlife and farmers. Regularly capturing data at defined intervals ensures a comprehensive assessment of the project’s effects. We meticulously analyze this data by comparing it with the previous data collected on the same parameters calculated a few months ago. The team precisely measure the observed changes against the planned results, enabling an accurate evaluation of progress and effectiveness.

Furthermore, this systematic monitoring allows for a deeper understanding of the project’s outcomes and facilitates informed decision-making. By comparing the current data with past records, the project can identify trends, successes, and areas for improvement. This process ensures that the project remains on track and enables the necessary adjustments to achieve the desired results.

Reports

The project reports are prepared and sent to the contributors. The report covers the following

1) Trees status as of the last visit made

2) Any mortality in the trees planted

3) Carbon fixed in MT from the start of the project

4) Quantity of fruits that are being produced by the planted trees

5) Economic impact on the farmers.

6) Ecological impact created.
