We are excited to announce that our Mint initiative has earned the runner-up spot in the prestigious FSA Growing a Better Planet Award by the SAI Platform! Our submission left a strong impression on the judges, who praised the initiative as an exemplary model of collaboration and highlighted our passion for supporting both farmers and the environment. Entries were evaluated based on their objectives, implementation strategies, collaboration efforts, and their broader impact on social, environmental, and business performance.
Since its launch in 2019, the Mint initiative has positively impacted over 6,000 small-scale mint farmers in Bareilly, Uttar Pradesh. By promoting sustainable practices such as water-saving technologies, efficient distillation, fair pricing, and transparent supply chains, we are empowering farmers to improve their profitability while also protecting the environment. This initiative exemplifies our commitment to fostering sustainability and driving meaningful change at the grassroots level.
This recognition reinforces our ongoing dedication to innovation and leadership in building a more sustainable future for agriculture and the planet. The FSA Growing a Better Planet Award is part of the SAI Platform’s efforts to raise awareness of their Farm Sustainability Assessment (FSA) tool, which helps address global challenges such as soil degradation, biodiversity loss, and climate change by promoting sustainable agricultural practices. Through this inclusive approach, the FSA connects suppliers, farmers, and businesses worldwide, enabling them to collaborate and achieve remarkable sustainability results. At Mane Kancor, we are proud to be part of this global effort, driving positive change and shaping a brighter, more sustainable future for all.
