Background

Most rural households rely not just on one source of income for their everyday needs. A 2019s situational assessment report shows income from crop husbandry is just 37% of the total income, and the remaining comes from various other activities. Within crop husbandry too, farmers cultivate multiple crops often subjected to numerous uncertainties. Therefore, creating sustainable livelihoods needs a comprehensive approach i.e., working on both crop husbandry and supplementary income-generating activities. To this end, we a social enterprise promoted by a known NGO has been working, is attempting to brick various entities together, and to create an ecosystem to create that promotes sustainable livelihood opportunities for rural households. The idea of setting up the Rural Distribution Network is to internally rotate the scarce funds of the rural producers in a way that fetches maximum benefit and brings about positive changes in their lives and to provide multi-user facilities, reduce incidental expenses, and build-up an integrated value chain in order to enhance the efficiency of agricultural activities, to reduce the hardships of the producers, processors and to create multiple employment opportunities and an efficient supply of agro-products to rural members
