FEATURED STORY
Mrs. Parvati Dashrath Mane
FROM WIDOW TO SELF-RELIANT FARMER

A Farm Transformed by Water

Mrs. Parvati Dashrath Mane
Chandegaon, District Beed, Maharashtra
A widow with two children, Parvati depended entirely on 3 acres of rain-fed land. Through the ESP Project, she received an irrigation well and a 5 HP solar pump — transforming her farm completely.

For years, her farm produced very little and left the family struggling to meet basic needs. Today, with regular irrigation, she grows multiple crops, meets her children's needs with dignity, and has become an example for other women in her village.
