Developing a farmers’ happiness index with smallholder coffee and tea farmers in Sri Lanka and India

Description
The project aims to develop a Farmers' Happiness Index with smallholder coffee and tea farmers in Sri Lanka and India using a participatory approach. This tool will systematically assess the factors that influence farmers' well-being and help policy makers focus on areas where improvements are needed. The final index can be a valuable tool for identifying strategies to promote sustainable agriculture in different contexts.
