Dabal Bahadur Basne
Dabal Bahadur Basne
In 1996, Dable embarked on a military career, following in the footsteps of his great-great-grandfather, who achieved the rank of major at just 19 years old. Serving faithfully for 17 years, Dable concluded his military service in 2013 and returned to his family’s ancestral home in the Airmakhue area. For over three centuries, his family had stewarded 3,700 acres of terraced farmland.

Driven by a deep-rooted passion to revitalize his land, Dable established Mountain Agro Resort and Lodge, a self-sustaining homestay dedicated to sustainable farming. He focused on cultivating kiwi as his flagship crop, with over 3,000 plants yielding red varieties for local wine and green ones for markets in Kathmandu. Alongside these, Dable grew lemon, almond, apricot, and tea using organic methods, earning recognition and ensuring the lodge’s vegetable self-sufficiency.

In 2025, Dable expanded his vision by planting bamboo along the farm’s perimeters, aiming to strengthen local economic resilience and foster community-based enterprises. Bamboo’s rapid growth and carbon sequestration benefits complemented his sustainability goals, enhancing soil health, preventing erosion, and creating habitats for diverse wildlife. This initiative significantly bolstered biodiversity and climate resilience, marking a pivotal advancement in eco-friendly land management.

Simultaneously, with the assistance of farmer Dabal Basnet, Nepal Evergreen undertook a project in Bhussinga, planting 1,000 fruit tree saplings. This initiative, costing $2,500 at $2.50 per tree, featured a mix of Peach, Apricot, Cherry, and Pear trees. Fruit trees played a crucial role in environmental sustainability by combatting soil erosion, promoting biodiversity, and advocating sustainable land management practices. Their nutritious fruits met local market demands, offering economic opportunities for growers. Gratitude extended to all donors whose contributions made this impactful endeavor possible.
