General Information
FALI is rooted in the Action Platform’s research which indicates that most children and their parents do not want the next generation to go into agriculture, largely because they see it as an unpromising activity, based upon the experience of India’s many small and marginal farmers. FALI aims to both turn around the perception of students and their parents and prepares young people to succeed in modern farming & agro- enterprise. FALI was piloted in six government-aided rural schools in Maharashtra from November 2014 to April 2015. In its Phase 10 (2023-24) FALI is now a Section 8 company and is operational in 175 schools, 141 in Maharashtra, 26 in Gujarat, and eight in Madhya Pradesh. FALI focuses on interactive learning and problem solving, practicums, field visits, business plans, and business development. FALI is inspired by the successful Future Farmers of America program, adapted to Indian realities. The companies that support FALI participate in curriculum development and provide us in-kind contributions such as shade nets, drip irrigation, soil and milk testing to the schools, help organize field trips and practicums, and regularly participate and host the FALI annual convention, innovation, and business plan contest. FALI operates on a cost-sharing agreement with Asia's largest education society, Rayat Shikshan Sanstha, Satara in thirty of their schools.
