Description
Story behind this
initiative
Agriculture is the backbone of Bangladesh’s economy, yet many farmers struggle with low productivity, poor access to markets, and the impacts of climate change. These challenges threaten food security and the livelihoods of millions who depend on farming as their primary source of income.
Jonoshakti’s Agriculture and Food Security initiative focuses on promoting sustainable farming practices, improving food production, and ensuring that communities have reliable access to nutritious food. We work closely with farmers to introduce innovative techniques and provide the support they need to thrive in an increasingly challenging environment.
Our approach is centered on resilience and sustainability, helping communities adapt to changing conditions while increasing agricultural productivity. By fostering strong, self-sufficient farming communities, Jonoshakti is contributing to a more secure and prosperous future for Bangladesh.
Brief Summary
Food security is essential for a healthy and prosperous society. Jonoshakti supports sustainable agricultural practices that improve food production, increase resilience to climate change, and enhance access to nutritious food.
Why it's important
Bangladesh’s agriculture sector is highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, as reported by The Business Standard (2022). Floods, droughts, and cyclones can devastate crops and reduce food production, leading to food insecurity in many regions. Farmers also face challenges due to limited access to modern farming techniques and resources.
Why it needs attention
Agriculture is the backbone of Bangladesh’s economy, and ensuring food security is essential for stability and growth. Jonoshakti’s agricultural programs aim to improve farming methods, promote sustainable practices, and enhance access to markets. By supporting farmers, we can reduce hunger and build stronger, more resilient communities.
