Recognizing and Appreciating the Tireless Efforts of Farmers.
Over the years, farmers have been the cornerstone of many flourishing civilizations and have contributed towards a thriving economy. At National Farmathon, you get an opportunity to recognize and appreciate their tireless effort and labour. Natural and integral farming will be the focus of the National Farmathon. The event will also discuss and highlight sustainable natural farming, community farming and shared resources for farming.
National Farmathon is the first-of-its-kind event that attempts to bring together those who support and those involved in natural farming. The brainchild of Mr. Atchuta, Founder of non-profit organisation – Estah Society, National Farmathon aims to engage with the best minds from across India for the well-being of Indian Farmers.
At present, Estah supports more than 1,200 farmers across 5 South Indian States. In the next 1 year, National Farmathon is proposed to be conducted across 12 Cities in India. By the year 2022, Estah has a target to support over 40,000 farmers across India.
