Farmers fighting climate change, desertification using nature

Climate change is exacerbating the loss of arable land as temperatures rise and rainfall becomes more irregular. To counter this, thousands of farmers in the  Anantpur district of Andhra Pradesh are using regenerative agricultural practices over 100 acres of land. They use natural fertilisers and plant crops alongside trees to reduce the effects of desertification.
