Gramsabha makes a resolution that agrochemical use in the village is not allowed and
the (State) Department of Agriculture declares that there are no shops permitted to sell agrochemicals in the village.

After proper field verification, in 2022, 110 villages with 10,264 farmers and 65,279 ha (1,63,197.50 acres) of land is declared as organic. This is the first time, a mainland agriculture area in India is declared as organic on such a large scale.
