Adani Foundation at ACC Gagal promotes fresh produce farming among women through Poshan Vatika initiative

ACC, the cement and building material company of the diversified Adani Portfolio, in collaboration with Adani Foundation, is advancing household nutrition in Ropa village through the Poshan Vatika initiative under the Dhounkothi-Panjgain Watershed Project. Designed to reduce market dependency and promote fresh, chemical-free food, the initiative encourages women farmers to grow vegetables using traditional, organic practices.

Satyadevi, one of 40 selected women, previously focused on grain farming and often had to purchase vegetables from the market. With guidance from the project agronomist, she started cultivating cauliflower, spinach, coriander, and kharif onion in her backyard using homemade bio-fertilizers. Her family now enjoys fresh, homegrown produce for several months a year, significantly cutting costs and improving nutrition.

With initiatives like Poshan Vatika, ACC and the Adani Foundation are creating sustainable models of community development. By empowering women with the tools, knowledge, and confidence to grow their own food, the Foundation is enhancing food security, promoting health, and fostering economic independence in rural Himachal.
