In the tribal-dominated districts of Ratlam and Jhabua in Madhya Pradesh, farmers primarily grow soybean, maize, and cotton. Over the years, hybrid seeds, chemical fertilisers, and pesticides have led to higher crop yields—but they have also increased the cost of cultivation.
For Adivasi (tribal) farmers, farming remains a risky venture. Not only do they face the uncertainty of weather, but now they also live in fear of failed seeds, ineffective pesticides, and unaffordable inputs. While the production has improved, the profit margin continues to shrink.
Despite contributing to India's food security, these farmers lack the basic guarantees they need: reliable crop insurance, easy and affordable loans, and accountability from seed and pesticide companies.
This report captures the deep concerns and hopeful voices of tribal farmers who continue to farm against all odds.
