AP to collaborate with Yara International on farmer education, green ammonia projects
Andhra Pradesh is set to explore collaborations with Yara International in areas including farmer education, crop nutrition, digital agriculture and green ammonia, following a meeting between an Andhra Pradesh government representative and Vaishali Chopra, Head of Public Affairs and Communications, India, Yara International.
During the meeting, Chopra briefed the state side on Yara’s fertiliser portfolio and its work in India. Discussions focused on working together to provide education and knowledge support to farmers in Andhra Pradesh, particularly around crop nutrition and modern agricultural practices.
The two sides also discussed Yara’s involvement in green ammonia offtake and the possibility of collaborating on the development of green ammonia projects in Andhra Pradesh. Green ammonia is produced using renewable energy and is being explored globally for applications including low-carbon fertiliser production and clean energy.
Another area of discussion was potential collaboration with an Agriculture University in Andhra Pradesh on crop nutrition technologies and digital agriculture. The proposed approach seeks to combine agricultural research and technology with cleaner industrial practices.
The meeting took place on the sidelines of the 13th PAFI Annual Forum 2026, being held in New Delhi on September 24–25, with Andhra Pradesh as the Partner State. The forum is focused on the theme “India 3.0: Engaging for Growth in a Disrupted World.”
Vaishali Chopra currently heads Public Affairs and Communications for Yara International in India and is part of the Public Affairs Forum of India’s managing committee.
The proposed areas of cooperation reflect an effort to link farmer-focused agricultural knowledge, digital technologies, crop nutrition and emerging clean-energy opportunities in Andhra Pradesh.
