Today, I attended the first session of the ‘Advanced Course on Non-Pesticidal Management’.

It was such an amazing session. There was such a sense of peace and calm (which is not very usual in such a technical session).

Everything was so smoothly paced.

The overall vibe was so calming. 🙂 Felt so meditative, actually.
It was really nice the way it started with the Butterfly logo, followed by the brilliant presentations from Dr. Ramoo and Chandra sir. 🙂

Organisations like Centre for Sustainable Agriculture are making every effort to make our food toxin free and hoping to make a pesticide free green revolution possible

Heartfelt congratulations to the team of CSA for their significant contributions to sustainable agriculture and to the growers of our food…I always valued the association of Hivos with CSA. They have the unique asset of being able to connect with farmers, with government, with policy makers, and with campaigns and never give up on their commitment to non pesticide and anti GMO political faiths.

I remember Dr Sanghi on this occasion.

I recall a fruitful partnership with CSA from 2004 onwards. The conversion of Punukula to a chemical pesticide free village was there inspiration for SERP to undertake NPM , which later became CMSA. The fountain of the present A.P Community managed Natural farming was laid then.
