Our Namma Nellu ('Our Rice') programme has conserved 178 traditional paddy varieties with agronomic traits of drought tolerance, flood resistance, salinity resistant, pest resilience. We have scientifically validated nutritional and therapeutic properties of these traditional varieties, bridging ancient wisdom and modern science. Mr. Balu, Dr.Viji and other members of the team are the main people behind.
