Project and target groups

OSVSWA implements its agriculture based programs in selected districts of Odisha, which have high poverty levels, yet potential for agriculture development. Its projects and programs provide benefits to the economically backward groups such as : (i) rural small and marginal farmers living in extreme poverty, who are either landless or are producing a bare subsistence; (ii) subsistence and semi-subsistence farmers, in particular those willing to move to more commercial farming by adopting new technology and variety crop.
Besides, in collaboration with International Crops Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT), and International Center for Agricultural Research in the Dry Areas(ICARDA) of the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR), OSVSWA carryout various agricultural research activities across the State of Odisha.
