Quick answer

How do farmers earn with Grow Billion Trees?

Farmers in our agroforestry programmes plant fruit and timber trees on their own land, alongside their regular crops. The trees are funded by companies through their CSR and sustainability programmes; we provide saplings, planting support, training and care checks. Income from fruit and timber can raise farm income up to 3× compared with conventional two-crop farming.
