About India’s largest Agriculture Bank & Tribal Development Project

The India’s largest Agriculture Bank launched the Tribal Development Project to drive sustainable livelihoods and holistic development for tribal communities across India.

The Wadi (orchard-based farming) model anchors the program, integrating horticulture, food security, women’s empowerment, and market linkages.

With over 900 projects sanctioned, covering 10+ lakh tribal families and funding exceeding $5 billion, Tribal Development Project is among India’s largest rural transformation initiatives.

At a glance

  • Wadi model: orchard-based livelihoods
  • Nationwide coverage: all States & UTs
  • Strong focus on women’s participation
  • Market linkages and food security
Note: Figures are program-wide estimates shared for context.

Challenges Before AssetView

  • Tracking 900+ projects across all States & UTs was complex.
  • Paper-based reporting delayed fund monitoring and impact assessment.
  • Limited visibility of farmer-level data (survival, training, migration).
  • Ensuring accountability of ₹4–6 crore per project required robust monitoring.
