About

Rythu Sadhikara Samstha (RySS) is a Section 8, not‑for‑profit organization established by the Government of Andhra Pradesh to implement a statewide natural farming programme covering 800,000 small and marginal farmers across all 26 districts. Leveraging a Rs 750 crore, five‑year budget under schemes such as RKVY, PKVY, and BPKP, RySS promotes climate‑resilient, chemical‑free agro‑ecological practices that enhance farmer profitability, consumer welfare, and environmental sustainability. The organization delivers services in agro‑ecological practices, community‑managed natural farming, climate resilience, and drought‑proofing, and collaborates with partners like Azim Premji Philanthropic Initiatives to provide technical support. RySS’s mission aligns with national and global Sustainable Development Goals, offering professionals the opportunity to contribute to a transformative, science‑based agricultural model rooted in Indian tradition.
