Natasha works with members of the Dalit and Jaanajati castes who are poor, lack opportunity and live on terraced hillsides with no irrigation. Production in these areas is generally limited to what can be grown over the monsoon season between June and August.
Farmers make the most money during this period and need support, which makes Natasha’s work invaluable. Natasha has knowledge of new and innovative farming methods that increase production and income for farmers as she helps them move from subsistence to commercial farming.
