Bengal's Matir Srishti Project Transforms Farmland Using Farmers

The West Bengal government started a project called Matir Srishti to help farmers whose land was damaged.

The project involves farmers working together in groups to fix the land.

Instead of hiring outside companies, the farmers themselves manage the project.

They plant trees like mango and cashew to improve the land.

Over 42,000 acres of land have been improved, and the project helps farmers by providing income through growing fruit trees.
