Permaculture instructor Andrew Millison journeys to India to film the epic work of Aranya Agricultural Alternatives. We tour the village of Ellarthi, in Andhra Pradesh, where the Andhra Pradesh Drought Mitigation Project has saved dying farmland through rainwater harvesting, tree planting, composting, and bio-organic fertilizer production. Guided by Aranya Agricultural Alternative's co-founder, Padma Koppula, we visit the work and see the effects of a watershed-scale water storage project that has dramatically improved the lives, economy, ecology and stability of this region!

It is interesting to compare India and China. China is planting millions/billions of trees and sustaining them with pumped water draw from elsewhere, whereas the Indians are creating water catchment systems and harvesting the rain that falls on the area. The Indian solution appears superior.

@avantelvsitania3359 3 года назад

Indeed. China’s mentality seems to be “fighting and winning over Nature”, whereas India is more on the “Taking advantage of the local characteristics of Nature, respecting, and cooperating with it”. Harmony with the Environment will always be more successful than trying to surpass it. Because no one will ever surpass the perfection of Nature.

@bluesclues132 3 года назад

china does not have regular monsoons in it's inner lands- that is why they have to rely on pumping water, they don't need to worry about electricity consumption like india does as they have a lot of foreign reserve flows and a budding nuclear power programme. You need to adapt to your own geography.

@spik330 3 года назад

I feel like those are different problem. Mainly as one person said china doesn't have monsoons regular. As trees are known to shield the ground from winds and sun, creating a forest could be a way to help the ground retrain a lot of its moisture.

If you are reading this...please request Aranya to setup a base in north India as well. The so called literate farmers of Haryana, Punjab and other states... need to adopt these strategies rather than relying on chemicals, burning crops and not thinking about mother nature.

Haryana & Punjab doesn't have much rainfall but they have endless supply of water from Himalayan rivers. North might need a different solution.

This is by far the most interesting and inspirational channel on youtube. This is actual "work". Not some menial endeavor to get a bit of cash out of some toxic corporation. This is true, life giving work. This is holy, This is how it should be. Its almost ethereal watching this. The goal, the water, the food. Working the land for the people, with the people. Allowing space for nature. I look forward to how these beautiful places end up. Thank you so much for sharing this. I hope this mindset and perspective takes the world by storm. I would love to be a part of something like this here in Texas.

I would love to see this in richer and considerably less water strapped places. Here in Wyoming I think some of the grasslands are a lot dryer than they really should be, and tree-lined terraces seem like they could convert some dry, fast-draining land here to highly productive grass.

Thankyou from Australia. Individual farmers have started this sort of work here too, it is very needed in our dry continent. However I don’t think we have yet the kind of concentrated community education, planning and implementation that makes so much difference to widespread watershed transformation, as seen in these Indian projects.

These videos are incredibly inspirational. So many heroic visionaries in India. It's a shame that US agriculture isn't regenerative; is not predicated on the principles of permaculture. And with Bill Gates now the single larges private owner of agriculture land, Toxic chemistry and dead soils are here to stay. Amazingly, during the Public Works Program of FDR, many permaculture projects were completed, espcially in dry areas like outside of Phenoix, Arizona. Although long abandoned, they still stand today and are highly productive. Geoff Walton did a video on this subject.
