Pit Digging
In India, forest products benefit the rural communities to secure their food needs, income, and meet their primary energy requirements (according to FAO report (2014) India, food energy accounts for about 13% of total primary energy supply (TPES)).
50,000 trees supported by DCB Bank, will create approximately 4,092 workdays of jobs in the nursery and planting activities alone and is expected offset 1,000,000 kgs of carbon/year once mature. The age of maturity of trees varies from species to species, typically 7-8 years, depending on environmental factors.
Nursery
Forest resources are revered as sources of social, environmental and economic benefits for rural people in developing countries. Restoring forest land would contribute to sustainable development, promote food security, contribute towards soil and water conservation in many fragile ecosystems and play a vital role in mitigating climate change.
