Sustainable agriculture development by Jaivasree

Under the chairmanship of M. M. Hassan, Jaivasree caters to the sustainable development needs of agriculture and allied sectors whilst supporting the farmers associated with the sector. It is currently functioning with its headquarters in Trivandrum. The basic philosophy is to cater to the safe-food needs of the general population whilst simultaneously nurturing the grassroots level farmers, agrarians and small-scale value addition producers by means of ensuring a reasonable good income for their products. Thiruvananthapuram, being a consumer city, will benefit greatly from the upcoming Jaivasree retail department stores. Jaivasree Homes programme would motivate members to develop their homesteads into organic farms
“ Janasree is a self-help promoting institution based on family union. Prosperity, protection, self-sufficiency and economic independence of the family are our goals. Janasree promotes the coming together of self-help groups which act together and find solutions to poverty and unemployment.”
