Anand, the small Gujarat town that gave
India its dairy cooperave
movement, has
now spawned a new cooperave
that may
well grow into a genre of its own. The
Dhundi Solar Pump Irrigators' Cooperave

Enterprise (SPICE) provides the proof of
concept for promong
Solar Power as a
Remunerave
Crop (SPaRC). We argue that
SPaRC presents the best chance of taming
western India's groundwater anarchy, of
improving the finances of power distribuon

companies, of curtailing the carbon
footprint of our agriculture and of creang
a
new, risk-free source of serious cash income
for India's farmers.
