    Abstract

    Eight years ago, women from the Banjara (nomad) community in Madhusudangarh in Guna district of Madhya Pradesh didn't grow vegetables. Today, with the improved water availability in their fields through the Sri Dorabjee Tata Trust Project, the same women not only grow enough vegetables for their needs, they even make a small income by selling them in the local market. Since 2002, ICRISAT and BAIF (an NGO) have been working to implement 'watershed plus' activities through the project, which helped the villagers to make better use of natural resource management (NRM) practices.
