Non-farming activities

An alternative to farming activities and creating better employment opportunities in the rural sector as well.
NF plays a vital role in providing employment facilities to small-scale farm household and to the rural-urban migrating population. Not only would it contribute to the overall GNI (Gross National Income), but it would also act as a financial aid for the rural population, whose main income is vested in agriculture. NF is promoting Non-farming activities in its focus areas, which include various ventures like handicrafts, household as well as non-household small-scale manufacturing, construction, mining, quarrying, repair, transport, community service etc.
Our beneficiary

Goals of NF in non-farm activities development

  • Creating economic stability: rural non-farming activities play a major role in creating employment in the population.
  • Prevent migration: Our approach is such that, non-farming activities may prevent the migration of many rural people from rural to urban spaces, due to lack of employment opportunity.
  • Bridging gaps: when employment opportunities go beyond the dominant agricultural economy, our brotherhood with community helps to bridge the urban-rural economic lacuna.
  • Employment opportunity: Rural non-farm activities incur less capital and employ a larger percentage of manpower/ labour.
  • Equal income distribution: The rural spaces having the rural non-farming industries are seen to have much lesser unequal income distribution, compared to rural areas with the facility of farming industries.
