Hindustan Zinc Limited (NSE: HINDZINC), the world’s largest and India’s only integrated producer of zinc, continues to drive large-scale rural transformation in Rajasthan through its flagship CSR initiative, Samadhan. Launched in partnership with BAIF Development Research Foundation, the program promotes sustainable farming, livelihood diversification, and rural entrepreneurship, and has now impacted over 35,000 farmer families across the state.

Now in its latest phase, Samadhan is transforming agrarian communities by equipping farmers with knowledge, tools, and market linkages that are helping them increase productivity, reduce input costs, and adopt climate-resilient farming methods. The initiative offers training in modern agricultural practices, sustainable irrigation, cattle management, and collective marketing—empowering farmers to transition from subsistence to profitable, market-ready farming.

“Samadhan is not just a livelihood initiative—it is a rural empowerment model,” said a Hindustan Zinc spokesperson. “We are proud to support farmers in achieving income stability and long-term resilience, while contributing to the broader vision of Atmanirbhar Bharat and the UN Sustainable Development Goals.”
