I recently completed a life-changing internship at an NGO Mount Valley Development Association that focused on agriculture, and I must say it was an unforgettable experience. Throughout my time there, I had the opportunity to work alongside dedicated professionals, passionate about sustainable agriculture and making a positive impact on rural communities.

The NGO’s commitment to promoting environmentally friendly farming practices and empowering local farmers to improve their livelihoods was truly inspiring. From day one, I was encouraged to actively participate in various projects, gaining hands-on experience and valuable skills in agricultural techniques, soil conservation, and crop management

MVDA’s experience was very good in which we learned what problems and challenges farmers face in farming in the hilly areas of Uttarakhand. Which we did a survey related to millet. And we have come to know what decisions are made in the mountains and how much yield they give. In which we learned the importance of millet. We saw that people in the hilly areas of Uttarakhand are still attached to their farming despite facing many problems. I thank Mount Valley Development Association from the bottom of my heart for giving us this opportunity.

My experience at MVDA was fantastic. We received all necessary facilities, including food, accommodation, and transportation. We learned extensively about different types of millets and their benefits, such as barnyard millet for jaundice patients and finger millet for diabetic patients. We also discovered rare millets like Porso and foxtail millet. MVDA’s efforts to motivate farmers to grow millets and raise awareness about their nutritional value were commendable. This experience improved my communication skills through interactions with farmers, and I’m grateful to MVDA for the opportunity to learn about rural agricultural practices and the challenges they face, including crop damage by wild animals.
