Global Parli is a revolutionary movement of Nation Building through Rural Economic Transformation started by Mayank Gandhi with a specific goal of Increasing Farmer Incomes with focus on Environment & 360° development of our farmers & their family.
Global Parli is a not-for-profit organization that is committed to bringing Rural Economic Transformation by empowering farmers in rural areas with the knowledge, skills and resources that would help them increase their incomes, crop output and bring about overall prosperity in the field of agriculture.
Through our ‘Proof of Concept,’ we have successfully achieved an increase in farmer incomes from the figure of Rs. 10-2000 per acre to over Rs. 2,00,000 per acre. This increase can be seen in 106 villages across the Parli Taluka, situated in the drought-prone region of Marathwada.In the past 4 years, we have managed to accomplish the following:
2016 – supply 1.54 crore litre of water
2017 – initiate 360-degree development including reforms in e-learning, health-care, increasing income, going towards less cash etc.
2018 – create water capacity of 222 crore litre.2019 – plant 1.2 million fruit trees in Marathwada
2020 – plant 2.0 million fruit trees in Maharashtra & Madhya Pradesh.We have undertaken work in the following fields of operations:
Forward linkages: We currently intend to promote the development of forward-linkage units, procurement centres, sort-pack-clean units, farm-to-consumer marketing, cold storage and ‘godowns’, processing units and post-harvest management.
Replication: Our proof of concept is scalable and replicable across the nation and has the ability to raise farmer income. At present, we are trying to replicate this model across India. While the state of Madhya Pradesh has already begun its plantation journey, talks have been initiated for fruit plantations in Palghar and Ratnagiri (Maharashtra), Rae Bareli (Uttar Pradesh), Ariyalur (Tamil Nadu) and Bhavnagar (Gujarat).
Institutionalisation: We aim to work in collaboration with governments and international organizations to guide in the creation of policies and reforms. Previously, we have had reasonable discourse with important policy-makers such as the Union Agriculture Minister, Union Agricultural Secretary, ICAR Deputy Director and some other member in the Union Ministry as well.
