Some of the Group's goats!

Activities

 1. Goat Keeping
Each member brought one goat during the formation of the group.But since then the goats have reproduced and now the number has gone up to 48 goats.These goats are divided among group members and other well wishers who graze them together with their own livestock.The goat caretakers also benefit from goat milk as a way of replenishing their diet.Group members monitor the goats' progress and sell them at maturity.

2. Cash Crop farming
During rain seasons,the members lease farms for cultivation of cash crops specifically green grams which they sell for income generation
