GRAMIN VIKAS TRUST, WEST BENGAL
PREAMBLE:
Gramin Vikas Trust (GVT) is operational in West Bengal, since 1995 through
facilitation of Eastern India Rainfed Farming project, supported by DFID, UK and
gradually expanded its rural resource base with the auspicious support of
National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (NABARD), backward
class welfare department (BCW), Panchayat and Rural Development
Department (P&RDD)-Go.WB, UNICEF etc. The core issues of rural livelihoods,
related to rain fed farming systems of drought prone Purulia, Paschim Midnapur,
Bankura have been addressed based on Natural Resource Management
program like Watershed Development, Orchard Development programmes. The
specific issues like household food insecurity, depletion of ground water
resources, soil erosion, chronic indebtedness of the resource poor farming
community, huge exodus of farming community to neighbouring districts/states
in search of their livelihoods (out migration), distress sell of the farming produces
due to nonexistent of sustained value chain facility, poor water/sanitation status
of the targeted village, vicious chain of social evils, illiteracy, gender inequality,
domestic violence etc. being addressed by GVT in five districts of West Bengal
since inception of its intervention.
So far, the geographical spread is concerned, Gramin Vikas Trust (GVT), in West
Bengal, has covered more than 20,000 HH (mostly tribal Households), 105025
population in 57 Gram Panchayats and 17 blocks under five (5) districts since
inception of its intervention. At present it is facilitating rural development Projects
and providing technical supports/ services in Purulia, Birbhum and Murshidabad
districts of West Bengal covering 13005 households under 10 blocks and 32 GPs
with the support of National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development( NABARD)
, Backward Class Welfare Department ( BCWD), MoRD, GoI.
Wadi Meaning -
WADI is a small horticultural orchard surrounded by forest species. Essentially
WADI projects envisage development of about 1 to 3 acres of land of each tribal
family for growing orchards surrounded by other forest species. In general it has a
holistic developmental approach and takes account of all aspects of rural life. WADI
approach can be viewed as move away from some of the earlier approaches which
has hardly been able to address the complexities attached with tribal way of life,
due to their historical, socio-cultural and geographical situations.

WADI: ITS GENESIS AND EVOLUTION –
The concept of WADI entered into the Indian scenario when NABARD launched
a development initiative in parts of Gujarat and Maharashtra in the year 1995
and 2000 respectively. NABARD has been closely associated with tribal
development through concessional rates of refinance, general line of credit for
tribal development agencies. The implementation of comprehensive Adivasi
Development Programmes (ADP) in Gujarat and Maharashtra had provided
several insights for NABARD in framing strategies for holistic development of
tribal regions. NABARD got the support of a German Bank, Kreditanstalt fur
Wiederaufbau (KfW) in this connection as this organization has chosen
NABARD as their Indian partner. The task of program implementation at ground
level has been taken up by BAIF, one of the renowned Non Governmental
Organization (NGO) in natural resource management sector. They have left a
visible impact in a short span of time and their model stands out as a sustainable
model suitable for replication in other tribal areas. BAIF started this initiative in
over 251 villages of Gujarat and Maharashtra. Project areas were largely dry
lands, which are inhabited by tribal people for many years. Each tribal family
owned at least one acre of land. These areas were mainly isolated from the
mainstream development process. Tribals had limited access to education and
were largely non-literate. Depending upon certain old traditional ways of doing
farming, they used to grow crops, such as millet, barley and ragi and drew some
income out of it. However with no access to fertilizers or pesticides for the
science of cropping, their income from the land was of a very uncertain kind, as
a result of which many of them were forced to migrate from that area.
Even though it has been more than 18 years since the program first started its
initial concept is still going strong. Today, it touches the lives of more than
25,000 families in Gujarat and Maharashtra.
WADI AND ITS RELATION WITH SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT –
Ideas of sustainable development have a long history in the literatures of both
development and environmentalism. There have been a number of important
international conferences within which actions towards sustainable development
have been debated (and contested) at the highest levels of government.
Understandably, different people often have tried to analyze sustainable
development from different perspectives. Economists view sustainability in terms
of long-term continuity and constancy of economic progress which they measure
in terms of output, income and consumption. Ecologists, on the other hand, view
sustainability in sustenance of human populations and biodiversity connection in
a given geographical area/region, endowed with limited natural resources
(F.A.O. 1989). In scientific literature, sustainable development has been
analyzed in different qualitative aspects, such as economic, social, ecologic,
institutional, ethical, political, etc. The variety of the applied research techniques
further confirms the problematic nature of the concept of sustainable
development and its evaluation (Dzemydiene 2008). Sustainable development is
currently being pursued in the context of an increasingly globalised world, but
one which is also characterized by poverty.

GRAMIN VIKAS TRUST, WEST BENGAL
But, the challenge of sustainable development lies in the complex
interdependencies of environment, social and economic development (Elliot
2006:7). As the World Bank report on sustainable developments points out that
any form of sustainable development requires some socio-economic drivers.
These drivers include (a) scientific and technological innovations (b) income
growth (c) demographic transition and (d) urban transition (World Bank 2003).
Though these drivers are related to World development, they are equally
relevant to national, regional and even tribal development level. Therefore,
sustainable tribal development must ensure livelihood security, food security and
environmental security, continuous participation of tribals in the development
process, positive development motivated mind-set along with a congenial
environment that helps in sustaining effect for a long period of time. Perhaps, the
well-known definition of sustainable development which views it as “people’s
development that meets the needs without compromising the ability of future
generations to meet their own needs” shows the possibility of incorporating two
above stated economic and ecological stability .
WADI being holistic development approach involves all such possibilities. It
merely covers all aspects of rural life. WADI program can be viewed from
different levels or perspectives. Viewed through a wide angle, it covers the
development of a designated area of land and its inhabitants in the form of a
WADI cluster. It has dimensions of farm production, natural resource
management, social mobilization and economic upliftment. From an individual
farm perspective, it is a tree-based farming system, more specifically a WADI
system, in which the physical unit interacts with other production components of
the farm such as annual crop fields and livestock. At the level of the physical
land unit, the WADI plot is an agri-horti-forestry arrangement of beneficial plant
species. The WADI program is a development strategy aimed at smallholders in
dry areas who cannot take the risk of investing in high-input intensive agriculture
because of poor land quality and limited water availability. Other development
interventions in the areas of environment, gender and health viz., soil
conservation in the WADIs, water resource development, agriculture
development, women development, health are woven around the WADI.

The economy of the Purulia district is mainly driven by the industrial sector and
tourism. Among these, the industrial sector is the backbone of the economy of the
district. From 2001, with the new industrial policies of West Bengal Government,
this district has attracted investments in Steel, Cement and Power sector. The
district has large scale industries like Santaldih Thermal Power Plant at Santaldih,
Pumped Storage Project at Baghmundi and ACC Damodar Cement Factory at
Madhukunda. The Purulia Pumped Storage Project of West Bengal State
Electricity Distribution Company Ltd consists of 4 units with a capacity of 224 MW
each, which generates 900 MW of lectricity. Currently, DVC is planning to set up a
thermal power plant in Raghunathpur sub division with a capacity of 2400 MW. In
addition the manufacturing sector specially the spong iron sector got an
investment of 306.17 crores, which is comparable to the economically developed
districts of West Bengal.
Among small scale industries, the lac industry and sericulture industry is another
major source of income of this district. Purulia produces 90% of the lac produced
in West Bengal. Lac is cultivated in all the blocks of purulia and about 70000
people are associated with this industry. Sericultar industry is supported by the
ample amount of caterpilar laves as raw materials.
Tourism is another source of income for this district. Forests, Hillocks, Rivulets,
Streams, Wild Life, Flora & Fauna have tremendous scope to be explored by the
tourist. The prominent of the district like Ajodhya Hills, Matha, Murguma Dam and
Kuilapal Forests, Jaychandi Pahar, Panchakote Raj, Duarsini Hills and Forests
attract quite a good number of visitors to Purulia every year.

Major crops in Hura-
Livelihood System
The livelihood pattern among the local communities of the area show a range of
activities, depending on their background, physical conditions around them and
nature of hardships faced by the community. This is again not a static phenomenon.
The variations due to distress situation during different times, like failure of crops,
drought, etc. have laid them to adopt different coping mechanisms, through which,
these people living in rural and subsistence conditions piece together different
activities & initiatives to secure cash & food through the year & meet contingencies.
Obviously all the tribes do not enjoy similar livelihood status. The tribal of the area
have got a heterogeneous cultural pattern with different economic conditions and
activities largely based on various agro-ecological settings. The major livelihood
systems followed by the tribal of the area can be classified into the following
categories.
Agriculture continues to be the most important occupation of tribal’s in the area, but
unfortunately, it has not been able to support a large percentage of cultivators
throughout the year. Hence, forests contribute to the tribal economy, significantly.
Deficit household are heavily reliant on the forest for collection, use and sale of fire
wood, leave and other minor forest produce
11
GRAMIN VIKAS TRUST, WEST BENGAL
ii) Labour pattern: A few households of tribal households of the area work as
unskilled and semi-skilled laborers in Hura block of Purulia and also in other parts
of the state. They also work as agricultural labourer in their villages as well as
nearby localities. Apart from this they also work in transportation, construction
works and other related activities like brick kilns, etc.
iii) Skilled trade: Although very few, but some of the tribal’s earn their livelihood by
working in different offices, hospitals, educational and administrative institutions.
iv) In some of the villages, a few of the households are engaged in stone chips making
work managed by the local contractors. Women are mostly engaged in agriculture
works. A very few of them are engaged in paddy dehusking and liquor selling work.
Cash is required to purchase almost all items like food, cloths, medicine, kerosene,
salt, livestock, agricultural inputs, expenses for ceremonies etc but sometimes they
exchange seeds with neighbor / neighboring villagers.
v) Around 15-20 % of total households of the area use to migrate every year in search
of temporary employment. Usually, after kharif harvesting poor people leave their
houses in search of job, November to June generally being the hunger period.
Some time whole family migrate during the period but in general male and female
adult member migrates leaving behind their children and elders to look after their
livestock and they usually return back before rain. Resident of these areas
migrates to Kolkatta, Assam etc for Brick making, House Construction, Agricultural
work, and tea garden etc. Though they earn Rs.80-100/- per day but high degree of
exploitation both physically and economically have been registered in workplace
especially with women
vi) Most of the households have ownership of some physical assets. The BPL
household usually keep livestock- Poultry Bird, Goats , Bullock, Cow etc and
usually sell it in the market to fulfill their needs, where as the Surplus farmers (APL)
have no need to sell their said assets in normal cases but some of them need to
sell their assets at the time of marriage, death, treatment, purchase of land etc.
BPL households have to sell their assets even for small requirements.
vii) More than 75% households from tribal community are always in debt whereas > 40
% households take short term credit every year. Debt is incurred for various
reasons depending upon the people and their economic condition. For example;
Deficit and self sufficient household take loan for food, medicine, seed, ploughing,
bullocks etc whereas surplus farmers take loan for marriage, ceremonies,
purchasing assets etc. Money is borrowed either from relatives or money lenders.
Money lenders usually charges @ Rs.10/- per hundred per month and in case of
seed sometimes they have to repay in 1:2 ratio after harvesting the crop. Since last
3-4 years back, some members of SHGs functioning in the concerned villages, use
to take loan from their group fund at a much lower rate of interest.
12
GRAMIN VIKAS TRUST, WEST BENGAL
viii) The average health condition of the villagers is very poor. Though there are PHC at
Block headquarter but most of the people depend upon Ojha, Baidya for their
treatment and sometimes go for herbal treatment. The common diseases in the
area are malaria, diarrhea, skin diseases etc.
c. Gender
a) The contribution of women to the family can’t be ignored. They are involved in
almost all the activities including agriculture, livestock grazing, firewood
collection, marketing etc. Apart from these they have to take care of their
children, water collection, cooking and many other household works. Women
from all economic and social class have to such works. There is little difference
in the nature of work of BPL and APL households. The women from APL
households don’t go to forest for fire wood collection and wage labour.

Shri Mohan Lal Murmu, S/O-Late Badal Murmu is a tribal marginal farmer of village-
Dhagora. PO-Kalaboni, GP-Kolaboni ,Dist-Purulia. He has only 10- bigha’s unfertile and
non irrigated land. The soil quality is also not good, so the said farmer compelled to cultivate
it for Black gram, Peason-pea etc. in monsoon season only, but the crop production was
inadequate to maintain his family food and lead the family in search of their threshold food
security based on some alternative livelihood options. The land is red lateritic, which needs
collecting of red soil by digging it from very deep in surface of soil. Shri Mohan Lal Murmu is
very laborious and hard worker. He seems very tired to maintain his family food and try to
forget the tormenting pain of his hunger and abject poverty by always drink liquor. Paucity
of food and drinking habit thus caused a latent conflict, frustration and dissatisfaction in his
family. Mr.H.K.S.Mahapatra, Programme Manager, GVT always was in constant touch with
the person for his sustained enhancement of his life and livelihood status by providing new
but innovative , location specific, cost effective technologies in search of alternative
livelihood opportunity. Because of this relentless effort of GVT, Shri Mohan Lal Murmu
motivated in the financial year 2013-14 for establishing of a WADI in his barren land in .80
Acres. According to the strategic suggestions, provided by GVT, he planted 40 nos. Mango
and 40 nos. cashew Plants respectively in his tiny plot, which was followed by plantation of
border plant of 200 nos. for protection and future benefit. This year he grows vegetables in
rainy and winter season as intercropping in his WADI. Variety of vegetables were Bitter-
guard, Cowpea, Bottle guard, Tomato, Ridge guard etc .He earned a net profit of Rs.6000/-
in monsoon season and Rs.8000/-in winter season, excluding some amount for self/home
consumption andpo mitigating the demand for relatives, amounted Rs7500/-.He has
developed his confidence now and gradually quitting his injurious drinking habit and as a
result his family conflict has also reached to its low ebb. His family is satisfied now and all
members are involved to maintain the WADI activities for a better tomorrow . Now his
barren land has became a remunerative one due to his hard labor and utilization of the
timely advises and opportunity provided by GVT through the auspicious support from
NABARD-GVT and his vivacious participation in the WADI Project.
