What happened
High-altitude flower fields were inaugurated in Leh, Ladakh, comprising the world’s highest-altitude flower cultivation project. The twin fields, located in Choglamsar and Stakna, cover 40 acres and contain over 25 lakh flowers, including 24 lakh Lilium and 1 lakh Gladiolus. The project aims to promote commercial floriculture, diversify agriculture, and create alternative livelihoods for local communities.
Why it matters
The initiative is intended to establish a model for high-value agriculture in challenging environments. The facilities are planned to function as demonstration and training centers, teaching modern cultivation techniques and post-harvest management to farmers and young people.
