N2  - The Bhoochetana program in Karnataka, India, has been one of the initial exemplar attempts at scaling-out
best practices in reviving soils on a large scale involving thousands of farmers in the state. The stagnant
to declining growth of the agriculture sector in Karnataka between 2000 and 2008 demanded a multipronged
strategy to revive agriculture. Given the alarming situation, in 2009 the state initiated measures
to address soil health through a state-wide, flagship program called Bhoochetana. The program was
designed to get the state?s agriculture back on track by increasing crop productivity and strengthening
agriculture-based livelihoods.
