The campaign pays tribute to India's farming communities by celebrating their innate spirit of growth and nurturance. Marico desires to bring forward the inspirational stories of Indian farmers to the people of the country.
As a part of the campaign, Parachute Kalpavriksha Foundation has launched a film to celebrate the nurturing spirit of our farmers and appreciate their undying efforts. The film also narrates Marico’s association with the Indian farming community and how PKF has been helping farmers to improve their yields. The central idea of the campaign is to equip, and support increasing number of farmers with progressive farming methods and enable them with a higher quality of life. Thus, the film invites farmers to connect with PKF through a tollfree number.
PKF has successfully spearheaded several training sessions across regions, enlightening farmers on scientific and modern practices, and boosting the agrarian tradition with technological innovation. Marico, through PKF is working on other models like deploying agriculture entrepreneurs for expanding this program at a faster pace.
