Sharecropper programme
Ashraf Ali Gazi is a farmer living in the district of Khulna in south-western Bangladesh, and the sole provider of his family. In 2009, Cyclone Aila struck the coastal regions of Bangladesh, leaving behind a trail of ruin and damage. The tidal surges of the cyclone flooded all his cropland, while the saline water stagnation laid waste to his rice fields. He was given a grant to cultivate hybrid sunflowers to sustain his income.
