Training Amrut Krushi
Dear friends,
At Krushi Teerth Bajwada, we invite people who are earnest about farming as a means of
livelihood which is not in conflict with the rest of the ecosystem. We want Krushi Teerth to be
such a place where anyone can come, stay and learn how they can live a life of mutual
cooperation and coexistence.
What is Krushi Teerth?
Krushi Teerth is an Ashram run by Malpani Trust, where Amrut Krushi is being practised for the
last five years. Currently there is one family permanently residing at the ashram living an
agriculturecentred lifestyle. The ashram has seven acres of land where different experiments are
being conducted for optimising farm production with zero external inputs. These experiments are
specifically beneficial for marginal farmers and small land holders.
The Ashram is also a study facility where various people can come, stay, study about different
aspects of farming, environmental issues etc. which helps open new vistas of thought and action
for them. Training sessions happen from one day to six months. Hundreds of people have
attended the program till now and have adopted the learning from here in their own farm. In
future, we wish that the ashram does not remain just a place of study for a few individuals or
families, but rather grow into a study facility for a larger mass audience. People who keep a keen
interest on natural/environmental issues, and who are interested in living a life of mutual
coexistence with Eco system at large are invited to the Ashram to learn the methods here and
also to share their methods and experiences. We provide Vegan food only and no drinking even
soft drinksmoking on the farm
