Based on the local natural resource conditions, Liziba Village vigorously develops economic forest industries such as walnuts and chestnuts, cultivates and processes tea, fungus, and edible mushrooms, cultivates traditional Chinese medicinal materials such as Tianma and Chonglou, and engages in beekeeping and chicken farming. Some farmers in Liziba Village spontaneously formed a tea cooperative, registered their own tea brand, and built an online trading platform through e-commerce, promoting the vigorous development of the green economy.  Targeted training was provided to village level management and maintenance personnel on fund management, mountain patrol and maintenance, responsibility implementation, safety education, etc., to enhance the villagers' ability and level of independent management and maintenance.                                                                                                 

The forest resource conservation in Liziba faces many challenges in various aspects, which hinder the active participation of local residents in the protection of natural resources and the sustainability of the environment. These challenges include illegal logging, theft of timber, illegal purchase of wood, poaching of wild animals, and deforestation for farming. In addition, traditional living habits that rely entirely on forest resources, such as building houses and meeting basic needs like heating and cooking, also cause destruction to forest resources and ecosystems.

Alongside the technical solution and the financial model, GIC developed a training module, which assures that farmers who adopt the solution are prepared to produce and apply biological inputs such as Jeevamrut (liquid organic fertilizer), Ghanjeevamrut (solid organic fertilizer), and Neemastra (natural pest control).

Based on this module, all adopting farmers were trained on how to safely operate the system, how to maintain it, ensuring consistent fermentation quality and system longevity, and how to carry out basic troubleshooting to avoid the need for external technical support. Furthermore, they received training on the formulation of different organic inputs and their use in soil, foliar, and drip irrigation systems. Basic principles of nutrient management were also introduced, emphasizing balanced fertilisation and the role of these inputs in maintaining soil health.

By building these skills and understanding through the practical training sessions, the module supports farmers in adopting natural farming methods with greater confidence. Furthermore, it serves as a replicable model for scaling the use of biofermenters and natural inputs across other regions and contexts.

The solar-powered biofermenter is a low-emission solution that automates the preparation of biological inputs such as jeevamrut, amritpani, and brahmastra used in natural farming. It addresses key challenges in the manual preparation process, which is time-consuming, labour-intensive, and physically demanding due to the need for daily stirring and the strong smell of fermenting materials.

The system comprises two tanks (for fermentation and filtration), a battery-powered motor, and a time controller. The fermenter operates entirely on solar energy and features an automatic slurry stirrer that stirs the mixture six times a day, supplying oxygen at regular intervals to support microbial activity and consistent fermentation. The six-stage filtration process allows the output to be used across different application methods: as slurry for soil application, as a filtered solution for foliar spraying, or through drip irrigation systems.

The biofermenter can be adopted at the individual farm level or as part of a shared model. In the community-based approach, one farmer becomes a service provider, preparing natural inputs and supplying them to nearby farmers for a nominal fee. This model supports local entrepreneurship and facilitates broader access to high-quality biological inputs, even for farmers who may not have the time or capacity to operate the fermenter themselves.
