A federation of farmer-producer organisations has tapped into the growing organic market to help members raise incomes 

Catering directly to the consumers’ needs assures better marketability and incomes. This is what nearly 10,000 farmers of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh have realised over the past decade and are now steering a silent organic movement.
