Campaigns will be launched  in order to persuade farmers to be aware of benefits of having organic compound in soil by doing agriculture without burning straw after processing or utilizing agricultural waste or materials to further their income.

As being parts of the program, low-interests loans from BAAC will be offered to farmers for procurement of modern agriculture-machinery. 
In addition agricultural know-how training will be provided in local areas so that farmers lean how to practice agriculture in more efficient and sustainable manners.
