Lalita Mukati is championing organic farming in MP’s Barwani district

In a quiet village in Madhya Pradesh, a silent revolution is afoot. Crop yields have increased and farmers are earning more than ever before. Most of the credit for this goes to a 50-year-old homemaker. This is the story of Lalita Mukati and her village - Borlai. With organic farming practices, Lalita today earns between Rs 80,000 and Rs 1 lakh a month and grows amla, custard apple, banana, lemon, cotton and sapota.
