Sugarcane Bud Nursery

CherYsh’s agro-allied livelihood group, solely managed by women, marks a significant step towards empowering rural women in Haliyal, in partnership with EID Parry Ltd, a leading sugarcane industrial house in the region. CherYsh provided women with training, seed funding and expert advice to help them establish their own businesses. The pilot initiative, a sugar cane bud nursery in Mundwad, is already a very successful project, now in it’s third year. With Haliyal’s sugarcane cultivation belt offering a promising opportunity for regular income, CherYsh is exploring further opportunities to create sustainable livelihoods for rural women in the agro sector.
