Abstract: Abstract This paper assesses the impact of coffee plantation undertaken in tribal areas of Andhra Pradesh in convergence with MGNREGS. It explains various aspects of plantation and maintenance activities undertaken through MGNREGS. It makes a comparative assessment between the PVTG and non-PVTG households with regard to provision of labour through MGNREGS, financial benefits in the presence and absence of convergence, income levels and changes in non-monetary benefits due to the extended benefits of coffee plantation. The study also highlighted some challenges in the implementation process that need to be addressed to reach more and needy people.
