India pays 18 Tamil Nadu farmers Rs 55 lakh for sustainably growing endangered Red Sanders trees.
The National Biodiversity Authority has distributed Rs 55 lakh to 18 Red Sanders farmers in Tamil Nadu under a new benefit-sharing program, marking the first such initiative for individual cultivators in India.
The funds, disbursed via the State Biodiversity Board, stem from a 2015 NBA-appointed expert committee and support sustainable farming of the endangered tree.
A 2019 policy change now allows export of cultivated Red Sanders, reducing pressure on wild populations.
The move aligns with broader efforts to link conservation with livelihoods, following prior ABS payments totaling Rs 48 crores in other states.
