Messages draw out village women to farming - The Hindu

CGIAR Climate's insight:

Ruby Mehla had little to do with farming till she started getting messages on weather forecasts on her cell phone. She continues to study for an M Tech degree after her marriage when she moved to Anjanthali village in Karnal district, Haryana.

The village was among the first to be included in the Mobile Solution programme, part of the climate smart intervention by Climate Change, Agriculture and Food Security (CCAFS), a research programme of the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR).
