    NABFINS- BDC's Microfinance programme aims to extend financial assistance to Self Help Groups (SHGs) in rural areas. Recognizing the challenge of providing loans directly to individual beneficiaries, the program channels funds through SHGs. CRDS facilitates doorstep loans and offers guidance on the judicious utilization of funds. This approach not only empowers SHGs but also ensures that the benefits of microfinance reach the intended beneficiaries efficiently, contributing to the socio-economic development of rural communities.

    This programme aims to implement watershed management initiatives and establish Farmers Producers Organizations (FPOs) to enhance market access for farmers. Challenges such as declining underground water levels, poor soil quality, and limited knowledge of advanced agricultural practices and marketing strategies persist. CRDS addresses these issues by ensuring fair prices for farmers' produce, supplying high-quality seeds and fertilizers, and offering guidance on modern agricultural techniques, thereby promoting sustainable agricultural practices and improving farmers' livelihoods.
