MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN
MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN
Dr. Haribandhu Panda
Chairman

The purpose of Livolink Foundation is to facilitate technology based livelihood
development initiatives in the economically underdeveloped rural regions of the
country. Since its inception in December 2010, it provides support for scaling up of
activities related to System of Rice Intensification (SRI) and Diversion Based Irrigation
(DBI) through documentation, dissemination, monitoring and capacity building of
partner organisations, community based institutions and farmers. The foundation is
grateful to Sir Dorabji Tata Trust and Allied Trusts, Mumbai for generous financial
support. I myself and fellow trustees of the Foundation convey our gratitude to Prof.
Sanjiv Phansalkar, Programmes Leader of SDTT for his vision and guidance in shaping
the Foundation. Initially SRI and DBI were housed at Harsha Trust, Bhubaneswar. We
thank the Trust for its help in smooth transition of the activities to the Foundation.
Our partners in different states have been very receptive in accepting and diffusing
the technology for the benefit of the poor farmers. Livolink found their experiences
extremely useful in fine tuning the package of practices of different technologies. We
thank them for their interactive engagement. In the years to come, we expect the
strength and size of partnership will grow by consolidating the existing technological
interventions, expanding to new technologies and being more demanding. We have a
committed team of professionals from diverse and complementary competencies to
carry forward the mandate of the Foundation and to meet the expectations of
different stakeholders.

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR'S NOTE

It gives me immense pleasure to share the first Annual Report of
Livolink Foundation. The document in a nutshell encapsulates the
evolution of the organization, its purpose and major events and
developments during the period from April 2011 to March 2012.
Although the year of inception was dedicated towards satisfying lot
of formalities in shaping the organization but due importance has been
given to our on-going SRI and DBI programmes.

Tushar Kanta Dash, ED

Our achievements have been impressive as reflected in the progress made in core
thematic areas. Our efforts have resulted in increased adoption of a promising sustainable
agricultural methodology called as System of Rice Intensification (SRI) and also in bringing a
large section of remote and tribal fringe communities into the mainstream as seen in the
Diversion Based Irrigation (DBI) programme. Both these are national level initiatives for which
Livolink has played a key role in strengthening programme objectives and wider replication. We
have periodically undertaken series of interventions that includes capacity building and offering
a range of livelihood options for strengthening food and livelihood security of poor and marginal
families. Livolink has over the period of time undertaken studies, analysis and brought out
publications and documents on such interventions for enhanced community participation and
wider replication of such ideas. We at Livolink have constantly endeavored to mainstream such
noble initiatives with government programmes for establishing convergences and with other
actors in the sector.

Livolink Foundation is fortunate enough to have an eminent board of Trustees and I take
this opportunity to sincerely thank them for their continuous involvement, encouragement and
support that has created an enabling environment within the organization to carry forward its
mandate. I do acknowledge and highly value the efforts and hardwork of our staff in building up
Livolink and its achievements.

We gratefully acknowledge the generous support extended by Sir Dorabji Tata Trust and
Allied Trusts, Mumbai, Harsha Trust, Bhubaneswar, other esteemed donors including Government
departments and our partner organizations for their continued support towards achieving our
mission of serving poor, deprived and marginalized populations of the country.

This is just a start and we have miles to go…

PURPOSE OF THE ORGANIZATION AND ITS EVOLUTION

Livolink Foundation is a registered body under the Indian Trusts Act 1882. It was registered on
th
14 December 2010 in Bhubaneswar, Dist Khurda, Odisha. A few like minded professionals converged
on an idea of establishing an entity which would focus on technology driven and market led livelihood
development of underprivileged communities in the rural areas of India. Such an entity was visioned
to empower the local community, community based institutions and network of development
organizations working for greater effectiveness and wider outreach. This finally resulted in
formation of the new entity called Livolink Foundation.

The Livolink Foundation took up the responsibility of monitoring and guiding smooth
implementation of two major ongoing National Development Programmes. These were the System of
Rice Intensification (SRI) and Diversion Based Irrigation (DBI) - both financially supported by the Sir
Dorabji Tata Trust (SDTT) and Allied Trusts, Mumbai. For the purpose of periodic monitoring of the SRI
and DBI programmes, two Secretariats were established and hosted by Harsha Trust a development
organization based in Bhubaneswar.

OBJECTIVES

The core objectives of Livolink Foundation are:

a) To establish and provide support in the establishment of associations, institutions, funds,
societies and trusts for the benefit of the community, and promote ways and means to
encourage local organizations and enterprises to develop their capacities and skills for

b) To promote appropriate prototypes, design technologies related to development and to
popularize their application in the field
c) To venture into new and innovative development projects financed by government and
donor agencies
d) To assist development agencies in planning and formulation of development projects
independently or in association with other agencies
e) To assist local organizations and local enterprises in establishing profitable and viable
linkages with market, government agencies, financial institutions, technology centres and

SRI PROGRAMME

Programme Brief

System of Rice Intensification (SRI) is a set of farming practices developed to increase the
productivity of paddy by increasing productivity factors that comprises land, water, labour and
capital by utilizing less seed, less water and less chemical fertilizer. The involvement of Sir Dorabji
Tata Trust (SDTT), Mumbai, in SRI promotion dates back to 2006, when the Trust piloted the
methodology under its existing livelihoods programme. The appreciable success of the initial years
and the encouraging studies of the report presented by an eminent rice scientist prompted the
Trusts to start a full-fledged program on System of Rice Intensification in 2008. This program was
launched as part of the Trust's strategy to address the issue of food security at household level in
rainfed areas for small and marginal farmers.

The SRI Programme is coordinated by the SRI Secretariat which is hosted by Livolink
Foundation. The Secretariat is involved in monitoring of the activities of the partners NGOs across
the eleven states of the country where the SRI programme is in operation.

Programme Achievements

Till the Rabi 2011-12 season, the SRI programme could reach to a total number of 1,50,082
poor and marginal farmers across 47,247 acres of land spanning across 94 districts in 11 states of
the country. This has been accomplished mostly in rain-fed agricultural conditions.

The following graph represents the percentage increase in yields resulting from SRI over
Conventional Practices reflected from data analyzed from eight states. The average figures
indicate a 47.6% increase in yields from SRI.

Through the SDTT SRI partners, India today has emerged as the largest initiator of the
System of Crop Intensification (SCI) efforts in the world. As a spill-over effect, several farmers
have made innovations in wheat, finger-millets, mustard, kidney beans, vegetables and
rapeseed under the SRI programme. A document, “Growing Crops with SRI Principles” has been
published by the SRI Secretariat to disseminate these innovations.

Research on SRI

Apart from extension activities, on-farm
research on System of Rice Intensification directly
through partner organizations has been part of the
programme. During the period 2011-12, a total
number of four partners were involved in on-farm
research in different agro-climatic zones on
various research aspects.

CASE STUDY OF A SRI FARMER

Shri Dharmananda Guntha is a 65 year old tribal
farmer of Sariaput village of Nandapur Block in Koraput
District, Odisha. He owns half acre of rain fed upland
land where he grows paddy. Yield from the land has been
very low (4 quintals only) - not enough for sustenance of
his family for six months. Initially, Shri Guntha had
apprehensions on doing SRI. Many fellow farmers
discouraged him to take up the new practice. But he was
determined to try it out in at least 0.10 acre of land
though it was a risky proposition for him. He started his first trial in Kharif 2008. Well known
in the locality for his contribution to community forest protection; he also motivated his two
brothers and two farmer friends to do SRI in the same year. He followed all the principles of
SRI and was able to harvest on an average of 15 quintals of paddy from his land which now
meets the food requirement of his family for the entire year. He developed innovations in
wooden weeders for his own use. The initiatives have resulted in 12 farmers of his village to
adopt SRI. Shri Guntha is now a messenger of SRI in his Panchayat and regularly disseminates
ideas on the methodology in his village and the region. His enthusiastic efforts have also
seen him in being felicitated with “SRI SAMMAN” at the district level.

DBI PROGRAMME

Programme Brief
Diversion Based Irrigation or DBI is a
simple and cost effective method that applies
gravitational force to guide water from adjacent
streams and rivers to the cropping field areas.
Hence, DBI also known as 'Gravity Flow Systems' -
is suitable for undulating, hilly and mountainous
terrains. The National Level Programme on DBI
supported by the Sir Dorabji Tata Trust and Allied
Trusts targets those families which are
predominantly from forest fringes near the
origin of streams the ones who are deprived and Conveyance System in a pipe-based

The DBI Programme of SDTT is coordinated and monitored by the DBI Secretariat hosted
by Livolink Foundation. The DBI Secretariat provides assistance to partner NGOs in the
programme for training and capacity building, technical expertise in design and implementation
of DBI structures and enables overall monitoring of the programme and cross-learning amongst
implementing partners in the operational areas.

The Sir Dorabji Tata Trust (SDTT) has been implementing the programme on diversion-
based irrigation (DBI) since early 2009 to promote the development of small scale irrigation
through diversion of water from streams. Till the financial year 2011-12, the total outlay of the
DBI programme has been over Rupees 35 crores targeting around 85,000 families & 3650 hectares
across 1150 villages in 40 districts of 13 states. The programme has aimed to promote these
systems with the focus being on undulating, hilly and mountainous (UHM) regions that are poorly
served by irrigation and are home to the poorest.

CASE STUDY OF A DBI FARMER
Mahadapur is a small backward tribal village situated on a hill top in Zari block of
Yavatmal district, Maharastra. The village is around 18 km away from the block headquarter and
90 km away from Yavatmal, the district headquarters. All households in the village rely on
rainfed agriculture and wage labour for their livelihoods.
Shri Ganpat Nagoji Atram (35), a farmer from Mahadapur belonging to Kolam, a primitive
tribal group has a family of five - his wife, 2 sons and a daughter. Ganpat has 5 acres of rain-fed
agricultural land, on which he has been doing traditional farming of cotton, pigeon-pea and
sorghum. He used to grow 4 acres of cotton with intercropping of pigeon-pea and one acre of
sorghum. In all, he got Rs 28000 to 30000 per year averaging to Rs. 5000-6000 thousand per acre.
This income was not sufficient to meet his family need of input cost, family expenses and
education of his children. This was the situation up to the year 2009 till the introduction of phad
irrigation system in the village.
In 2010, Dilasa promoted phad irrigation system in Mahadapur village and Ganpat Atram
was one of the beneficiaries of the technology. Under this irrigation system, a small check dam
has been built up through which the diversion based irrigation is being carried under gravity
without use of power (oil engine/electricity).Ganpat benefited greatly through this system and
irrigated his one acre of cotton and pigeon-pea crop in kharif season. This year, he took
production of 5 quintals of cotton and 3.5 quintals of pigeon-pea crop valued at Rs. 25000 and Rs.
15000 respectively amounting to a total of Rs. 40000 from one acre of land. His production per
acre has been enhanced to 1 to 1.5 quintals per acre and the income has increased almost 6 to 7.

SN Crops grown Crop production by adoption of Phad

1 Cotton 3 15000
2 Pigeon-pea 2 7000
3 Jawar 2 3000
4 Red gram 2.12 5300
5 Fodder 3.00 3000
Total 12.12 33300

He is now able to cultivate this one acre of land under rabi crop of red gram owing to availability
of water. He used to give 3 turns of water to his red-gram crop and got a production of 2.12
quintals from his one acre of land which fetched him an income of Rs. 5300.
Thus, Ganpat has increased his crop production up to 1.5 times since the adoption of phad
irrigation. He is now satisfied with his agricultural income and realizes the need to reach this
irrigation system to more and more farmers for sustaining their livelihood.
