Lamtluang Online News: In Hualtu village, a ₹60 lakh terrace construction project initiated by FOCUS (Fostering Climate Resilient Upland Farming Systems) has yielded disappointing results. Despite selecting Lungchhuan, Sialsir, Rullam, and Hualtu villages for integrated farming, farmers struggled to harvest expected crops.
The challenges stem from insufficient water supply, hindering crop growth and disappointing the farmers. According to Hualtu Terrace Chairman Lalrinmawia, around ₹60 lakh was spent on constructing terraces, internal roads, water supply, and storage.
About 40 people manage the village's terraces, but nearby villages have reported similar struggles. Undeterred, farmers remain determined to continue efforts this year and achieve better outcomes, optimistic that their hard work will eventually pay off.
