Sonalika recently felicitated 15 farmers at the ‘Sonalika Krishi Samman Awards 2021’ for their contributions towards Indian agriculture and in creating innovative solutions that make agriculture convenient and profitable for all. During the ceremony, Sonalika also launched their latest book ‘Mitti Ke Sapne, Mazboot Irade: Kahani Kisano Ki’ as its gratitude towards the “Annadata” of the nation for their invaluable contribution to Indian agriculture. The book encapsulates the stories of all 15 farmers who have contributed extraordinarily to agri-sector development.

Sharing her views on the company’s new initiative, Surbhi Mittal, Director Sonalika CSR, said, ‘The incredible contribution of farmers towards the development of Indian agri-ecosystem is an inspiration for all and we truly acknowledge their role in the survival of humanity. Farmers today are willing to go beyond the conventions in creating innovative solutions that make agriculture convenient and profitable for all. And moreover, they are also playing a significant role in maintaining the natural balance by caring for plants, trees as well as animals, which is commendable. ‘Sonalika Krishi Samman Awards’ is our little effort to express gratitude towards the “Annadata” of the nation for their invaluable contribution to Indian agriculture.”

She added, “With our latest book – “Mitti Ke Sapne, Mazboot Irade: Kahani Kisano Ki”, we have tried to bring to foreground the splendid efforts of 15 farmers who have changed the way one can look at agriculture sector. With this book, we also aspire to educate the future generation about the diversity of Indian agriculture system and how they can also look at ‘Agriculture as a profession.’
