Amrit Jal: Practicing For a Sustainable Future. As we work toward sustainable farming, we prepare Amrit Jal on our farm on a regular basis using a specific protocol with the purpose of enriching the soil with critical minerals and beneficial microbes.This strategy differs from many modern farming practices that rely largely on synthetic fertilizers, which can deteriorate soil quality over time.Sustainable practices keep the soil fertile for future generations, fostering a balanced ecology. Small-scale farmers may find that using organic fertilizers such as Amritjal is less expensive than purchasing chemical inputs. This natural fertilizer made from cow dung, urine, and jaggery is known for its capacity to improve soil health and plant development. Have you ever tried and used it for your farming practices? #Uncompromised #Sustainablefarming #Farminglife Uncompromised

This picture holds a special place in my heart and is a constant reminder of how we need to keep doing what we are doing - (re)connect children with nature. It's a story I have shared many times but recently during the ALT EFF panel discussion, I was asked "How do we teach students that we are part of a larger ecological narrative?" and this story is what surfaced for me in response. Every year, we host week-long GROW camp during Spring and Summer vacations. These are science-in-nature camps where we inspire awe and wonder at the natural world. After the day's activities are over, everyone cleans up, puts things back in place, and does any necessary planning for the next day. Once, a child just stood staring up at a tree. We had discussed photosynthesis that day, and after some time, he came to say, "Ma'am, isn't it amazing: what we breathe out, the tree takes in, and what the tree gives out, we breathe in." This is such a simple and, at the same time, deep observation about the beautiful harmony that exists in nature. We didn't have to explicitly teach it; simply being in nature led to it. The holiday season is soon approaching, do plan for some time in nature. If you need ideas, just drop us a message at Uncompromised. #outdoorlearning #learninginnature #educationforsustainability #earthstewards #futureleaders

🌾A Day at the Farm! Inspiring the Next Generation 🌱 This week, I had the privilege of hosting a group of bright young students at our farm, introducing them to the beauty and science of sustainable farming. During their visit, we explored various aspects of farming like understanding plant life cycle, hands-on seed sowing, natural pest and disease control and other sustainable farming practices The excitement and engagement of these young minds were inspiring. Watching them interact with the soil, plants, and tools reminded me of the importance of cultivating a love for nature and sustainability in future generations. Together, let’s inspire the next generation to dream of a greener, more sustainable world! 🌍 Uncompromised

Humbled. I'm incredibly grateful to be recognized as a #SheIsUdaipur awardee alongside other inspiring women making a difference in our community. A big thank you to the organizers, MyFM, Arth Diagnostics, and GMCH, for this honour. This recognition fuels my commitment to creating pathways for an #uncompromised world. Let's continue to empower and uplift each other! #grateful #womenempowerment #communityimpact

Today, I had the privilege of joining a panel discussion at the ALT EFF film festival in Udaipur. Hosted in Dharohar Foundation's Third Space, the event brought together passionate individuals to discuss our planet's critical issues. The films screened at the festival, particularly ABBA, Akunthit, A Body Called Life, and Jamna: The River Story, resonated deeply with the young audience and sparked important conversations about environmental conservation and social responsibility. In the panel discussion, we delved into a wide range of topics, from the interconnection of the earth's ecosystem and the impact of human activities on the environment to the role of technology in sustainable development. The enthusiasm and insightful questions from the students were inspiring. They are not only thinking about what they can do today but also asking questions about how they can build sustainable systems for tomorrow and how we can balance the need for progress with the need for environmental conservation. Let's continue to inspire and empower the next generation to become stewards of our planet. Together, we can create an Uncompromised.

🌱Educating farm workers: Knowledge is Power!🌱 We conducted a seminar this week to educate our farm workers about the diseases and pests of our current planted crops. As the information is shared through whatsapp and it is not possible to audit every day to all the farms so our goal is to educate them about the diseases and pests identification and making information work more efficiently. Benefits about the awareness: Early detection is key to preventing the spread of infestations and minimizing crop damage. Regular monitoring by trained personnel helps in establishing a robust pest surveillance system. Knowledge sharing promotes good biosecurity practices on the farm. By understanding how pests can enter and spread, teams can implement measures that protect crops from external threats. Training laborers in sustainable farming practices not only protects the environment but also helps maintain crop health over the long term. Let’s work together to ensure healthy harvests! 🌾💪 #Agriculture #PestManagement #FarmBiosecurity #SustainableFarming #Teamwork Uncompromised. (formerly Urban Farms)
