 RRA

Revitalising Rainfed Agriculture (RRA) is established at Hivos in partnership with Ford Foundation. The network documents and synthesises lessons from field experiences in soil, seeds, water, millet-based crop systems, fisheries, livestock, credit, markets and institutions. It generates large-scale field experiences through comprehensive pilots in convergence with government programmes.

The network promotes partnerships with civil society organisations, research institutions, government agencies and departments and donors who see the need for increased investments in rainfed areas. A communication unit anchored by Barapani, Bangalore, provides support on communication strategy and materials.

A research unit is established under the Center for Studies in Science Policy in Jawaharlal Nehru University, Delhi, to promote macro-economic research on the issues of rainfed areas. The Centre for Budget Analysis and Governance (CBGA), Delhi, provides support in analysis of budget allocations for rainfed areas.
