Welcome To
Chetna Organic Agriculture Producer Company
The mandate “Ethics…. Environment…. Equilibrium” has been integrated into “Sustainable Organic Management Systems” to strengthen the ecosystem via training and capacity-building.
The fundamental goal of Chetna Organic Agriculture Producer Company is to improve the livelihood of tribal smallholder farmers who depend on rain-fed agriculture by making their agricultural systems more successful and long-lasting. Chetna supports organic cotton farming and conducts collaborative research on the best practices based on agro-climatic circumstances, including seed trials to increase the productivity and marketability of farmers’ produce with a major focus on the production of Non-GMO-Seed Cotton as per the organic and fairtrade standards.
The journey in pursuit of promoting organic farming started in the year 2004, with 234 tribal farmers from 19 remote villages of Maharashtra & Telangana State spread to Odisha by the year 2007. The total membership under Chetna has grown to 13170 farmers by the end of March 2023, producing over 92190 quintals of “A” grade Organic & Fairtrade Certified Non-GMO-Organic Seed cotton.
