Z T Lalrithangi hails from Sangau and initially struggled to secure a government job post-education. Redirecting her passion, she delved into strawberry farming, ultimately cultivating over 10,000 plants from her original 1,000 in just a few years. Her remarkable journey has earned her a spot among the FAO's 100 Women Heroes, highlighting her path to empowerment and financial independence through agriculture.
