At Yara India, our commitment to corporate social responsibility (CSR) transcends business operations, focusing on the cultivation of an ecosystem that enriches both agriculture and society. We recognize the profound impact our activities can have on the communities we serve, and we are dedicated to making positive contributions that foster sustainable growth and development. By actively engaging with key stakeholders, we identify and prioritize areas for intervention, ensuring our efforts align with community needs and aspirations. Through open communication channels, we incorporate stakeholders' perspectives into our decision-making processes, mitigating potential adverse effects and enhancing our overall impact. This holistic approach underscores our dedication to nurturing vibrant communities and promoting a harmonious balance between agricultural advancement and social well-being.
The CSR plan at Yara India is executed through a dedicated Trust registered under the Indian Trusts Act 1882, overseen by six trustees who convene biannually to assess progress. Operating under the brand name 'Kiran - A Yara India Community Initiative', our CSR arm serves as the conduit between Yara India and the Trust, ensuring alignment with defined objectives. Spearheaded by an in-house team, Kiran coordinates the implementation of initiatives, collaborating with external agencies as needed. Our community interventions are strategically aligned with Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), national priorities, and local community needs, as detailed in our CSR Annual Report.
