dc.descriptionAnand, the Gujarat town that gave India its dairy cooperative movement, has now spawned in Dhundi village the world’s fi rst solar cooperative that produces Solar Power as a Remunerative Crop. When compared to other models promoting solar irrigation in the country, the SPaRC model, which has successfully completed one year in Dhundi, offers multiple benefi ts across-the-board: it will control groundwater overexploitation, reduce the subsidy burden on DISCOMs, curtail carbon footprint of agriculture, and help double farmer incomes.
