Our farms have set rigorous Internal Environmental and Bio sustainability standards for site personnel and contractual farmers with an aim to minimize our impact to land, air and water resources. Systematic environmental programs have been put in place to conserve biodiversity in plantation operations. Our constant endeavour is to move our farmer community away from sustenance & towards sustainable farming practices.
