Semi-arid regions of North Gujarat face rapid loss of topsoil fertility and groundwater depletion. 'Green Horizon' was launched as a 3-year integrated agroforestry campaign to reforest 350 hectares of degraded community land and farmer bunds.
Third-party satellite geotagging confirms an 88% sapling survival rate over 24 months. Soil moisture retention in target blocks increased by 18%, and participating farmers gained supplementary fodder and shade for dairy cattle.
