The study, spanning 150 farmers across 8 districts of the Cauvery Basin, examined farmers’ experiences across different stages of adoption—from onboarding, training and support received to challenges navigated during the transition to tree-based agriculture. The findings offered clear, evidence-based insights into the program’s outcomes.
- 81% of farmers reported tree survival rate above 70%
- 93% expressed satisfaction or high satisfaction with the program
- 100% of farms over five years old observed positive ecological change
