S3IDF has partnered with MOTHER, a grassroots organization to strengthen the Salughatte Farmer Producer Company (SFPC) so that the collective can improve farmers' livelihoods while remaining responsive to changing environmental conditions. MOTHER initially supported the formation of the SFPC by enrolling more than 450 farmers from 9 villages in the region into the collective. MOTHER, which is also a resource NGO for the Government of India's National Bank for Agriculture and Rural Development (NABARD), has been collaborating with the farmers of this SFPC in watershed development and climate change projects for the 10 years of the SFPC's operation. At this point, S3IDF is joining into a partnership with MOTHER in order to strengthen the SFPC so that it may enter into its next phase of growth, becoming a self-sustaining member-controlled organization.
