In Mandla, MP, Champa Devi Kurram is leading a quiet agroecological revolution. From SHG member to training 1,100+ women across 11 villages, she's proving that healthy soil = healthy society. #GenderAgroecology #WomenFarmers #CoFTI #SoilHealth

Pairi - Karnataka’s tangy-sweet signal that summer’s here. Also called Raspuri, it’s juicy, aromatic, and shaped with a signature “beak.” Slightly fibrous, perfect for aamras or slurping straight from the skin. Got a Pairi memory?👇 #RipeWithMemory #Pairi #KnowYourMango #CoFTI

Imam Pasand—the regal mango of Telangana. 👑 Floral, melt-in-the-mouth & fit for royalty, it’s a seasonal gem grown in Khammam & beyond. Too delicate to travel far, it’s mango magic you have to know where to find. 🥭 Got an Imam Pasand memory? Share it! #RipeWithMemory #CoFTI

Suvarna Rekha -the golden-hued jewel of coastal Andhra. Tangy-sweet, early to ripen, and rooted in red loamy soils, this mango travels from Vizianagaram to Bengal’s mandis-carrying stories with every bite. Got a memory? Share it👇 #RipeWithMemory #SuvarnaRekha #KnowYourMango
