Agriculture is key to sustain and enhance humans’ life. Agriculture and its allied sectors, is the largest source of livelihoods in India. Farming in India has seen major shift from subsistence to commercial. Crops grown, crop varieties, cropping patterns, agricultural inputs, production and marketing methods have been changed significantly, but the traditional cultivation practices continued without any major upgradation. The resource intensive ways have raised serious sustainability issues and resulted in lowest yield from Indian farms amongst the world.

Agricultural Inputs
Agri-Input Centres
The Challenge
Agricultural Inputs is critical factor that influence the quality and quantity of produce. Agricultural Inputs relied on traditional and well established but age-old systems. There is major gap in availability and accessibility to quality agri inputs. In village levels there is only limited availability to agri inputs which are locally made or there is always problem of adulterated or fake products.
Challenge for farmer is availability of a particular products and get them on time, which many times conventional channels fail to deliver. Timeliness of application of these products, be it for crop or livestock, is very critical to get the desired results. The methods and guidance for application and usage of new age products is not available through the traditional channels who are focused merely on margins leading to sub-optimal results.
The Solution
Grow Your Farms Agri-Input Centers will be located at advantageous place in the district. Orders received from Agro Advisory Centre and AgEasy app will be packed and delivered to farmers at their doorstep. We are here collaborating with Ruralpreneurs as delivery partners. Ruralpreneur who owns delivery van will be outsourced as delivery partner. This will support rural development as well as easy to supply since the person is familiar with the geography.

Protection from pests can differ depending on climate, geological locations, and overall environment. We provide appropriate spraying program by considering these factors in order to protect the crop from damage in most efficient way.
Market Linkage
The Challenge
Farmers work hard though out the year to earn by selling the produce. Traditional Agri Output Supply Chain doesn’t allow farmer to earn enough profit for his/her produce. The moment the farmers’ produce has been harvested; the farmer is in a race against time. Smallholder farmers loss bargaining power in the Traditional Agri Output Supply Chain which force them to sell at the price decided by the intermediary. Other factors that make the supply chain more challenging are transport logistics, lack of adequate storage facility, too many intermediaries, and lack of traceability for the buyers.
The Solution
At the end of the day, what does the Indian farmer want? They want an assured buyer. Someone who can buy from them yesterday, today, tomorrow, and six months from now. What farmers need is a reliable system which can take on the principal risk on behalf of farmers and gives them an assured buyer.
