CSR activities:
Environment
While your Company has been delivering sustained and profitable growth over the years, it
has maintained strong focus on greater efficiency in the use of natural resources and on
reducing waste and emissions. The usage of water and energy and emission of Green House
gas and waste water, per tonne of production, has been drastically reduced over the last
decade. These efforts reinforce the trust that people have in your Company. The results of
these measures are contained in the write up on Creating Shared Value.
Community Development
Your Company has always recognized that its business is part of social fabric of the
community where it operates. The Company believes that its investments must result in longterm sustainable growth as well as economic and social progress for the community. The
relationships with the community as Partners in Progress are based on business ethics and
long-term commitment to creating Shared Value. The most obvious benefit that your
Company brings to the place that it operates in is the creation of both direct and indirect
employment that leads to the development of the whole community, as well as inclusive
growth. Economic prosperity is only on aspect of your Companys relationship with the
communities. The activities of your Company help in the transfer of technology and
knowledge that takes Indias success story to the people who need it most. Your Company
has done extensive work at Moga to develop dairy farmers. Dedicated agronomists and
veterinarians continuously educate farmers with good dairy practices and improved the supply
chain infrastructure for milk collection through installation of farm cooler and chillers. While all
this directly benefits close to 100,000 farmers, your Company is aware that women can play a
much more productive role in the villages. For the past few years your Company has been
conducting dairy development programs amongst village women to train them in good dairy
practices as well as spread awareness about personal health, hygiene, water conservation
and economic independence. Already 30,000 women from over 500 villages benefit from this
initiative.
Your Company endorses the United Nations Global Compact and the Millennium
Development Goals to promote prosperity in society. Access to clean drinking water is
necessary and your Company believes that it is important to create awareness towards this in
society. Over the past few years, your Company has been working on this programme and
setting up clean drinking water facilities in village schools around its factories. Clean and
hygienic drinking water has been found to reduce illnesses amongst the children and the
community is able to better appreciate the water education that your Company provides to the
children. The unique clean drinking water facilities are already directly benefiting 33,000
school children every year, who also become more aware of the role they can play in
protecting these resources and become ambassadors for water conservation.
