Nepal is indeed one of the best travel destinations of the world, offering you an exceptional opportunity to experience fascinating cultures, traditions, cuisines, flora & fauna, breathtaking views of the mountains and landscapes.

Though Nepal is regarded as a paradise for vacationers across the globe, unfortunately, majority of Nepalese people are under the line of poverty and have been forced to lead a miserable life. This is because over 70% of the Nepalese people’s major occupation is agriculture, however, it is still conventional and labor-intensive. Due to difficult topography and its unscientific distribution, traditional farming system, lack of proper irrigation and research activities, Nepalese farmers cannot even produce sufficient crops for them thus growing cash crops and earning has become just a dream. This is where your invaluable help comes in. 

By joining this agriculture volunteering project in Nepal, you will indeed make a real contribution to help poor Nepali farmer lead a happy and harmonious life. After joining this amazing program, you will assist in designing, coordinating and implementing various agricultural projects that help improve the local physical landscapes as well as the living standard of the locals.
