The project served the purpose of providing employment to local women and conservation of the environment. It came under UNSDG 5 (Gender Equality) and UNSDG 13 (Climate Action) of the UNSDGs.
Each seedball was priced at Fifty paise. Volunteers had contributed a total of Rs. 13,000 for the project, which enabled the production of 26,000 seedballs those were later dispersed on Magadi Road. Good quality seeds of the Indian Beech tree were procured for this project. These seeds were recommended by the environmentalists as cattle do not feed on these trees.
