Abstract: Green financing, thanks to its inherent advantages, has nowadays become the most coveted attraction everywhere. The paper examines the realisation of organic farming via the formal credit overwhelmingly through the linkage between self-help groups and micro finance institutions. There was a marked increase in the growth of organic farming as the formal credit is linked through SHGs. The paper concludes that release of formal credit fructifies the cultivation of organic farming among rural folks, which prepares the ground not only for improving the lot of marginalised communities but also for guaranteeing sustainable development in developing nations.
