Each APC (1-2 blocks) comprises of around 20-25 PGs where coordinated production, primary level value addition and vibrant collectives to manage and avail different services
- Selection of winner crop considering small holder farmer’s suitability, agro ecological compatibility and market attractiveness.
- Collective Nursery
- Batch-wise Planting
- Enhancing productivity through improved technologies and ensuring micro practices
- Orchard with intercrop
