Himalayan Elevation Kashmiri Saffron Brand Launches Initiative To Train Farmers To Combat Declining Yields

New Delhi, Sep 10, 2024: Himalayan Elevation Kashmiri Saffron, a brand from Tata Consumer Products, has launched an initiative to support saffron farmers of Pampore, Kashmir, who are facing challenges due to declining yield of Kashmiri Saffron.

As part of this initiative, the brand collaborated with Matamaal Foundation, which is training Kashmiri Saffron farmers starting September, with on-ground sessions planned till October.

The entire proceeds from all packs of Himalayan Elevation Kashmiri Saffron sold online, in the week of this Himalayan Day, which is observed on September 9, will be used to train these farmers. Consumers can scan the QR code on the back of each Himalayan Elevation Kashmiri Saffron pack to see the specific farmer whose livelihood they have helped uplift. This initiative thus allows consumers to see firsthand the impact their purchase is making on the lives of these farmers. These trainings will equip them with the knowledge and tools needed to cultivate saffron more efficiently, ensuring the sustainability of their craft.

This initiative is in line with the brand’s commitment to giving back to the communities that are integral to the Himalayas. With this initiative, not only is the brand providing training to the saffron farmers of Kashmir to combat the declining yield but also giving them the hope they need to continue their craft in the face of environmental challenges.
