Description Forty-two villages were selected (18 in semi-arid
tropics (SAT) of peninsular India, 12 in humid tropics
of East India and 12 in Bangladesh) based on certain
relevant characteristics, as part of the Bill & Melinda
Gates Foundation (BMGF)-supported Village Dynamics
in South Asia (VDSA) Project of the International Crops
Research Institute for the Semi-Arid Tropics (ICRISAT).
The aim of the project was to track rural poverty in
household and village economies in the region, to
provide the most efficient way to understand the farming
systems in rural areas, and to identify the socioeconomic
constraints faced by the farming community. In the SAT
region, 18 villages spread across 9 districts in 5 states
were identified for the study, of which 6 were chosen
in 1975 under the erstwhile Village Level Studies (VLS)
project of the then Economics Program of ICRISAT, and
the other 12 were included in the expanded VDSA
project during 2009. Kapanimbargi is one of these 12
new villages.
