Fasal's story of Indian farmers, the future of tech & the business of Indian agriculture
Think about this - Indian farmers were struggling with low yields for generations so much so that a country like Netherlands had more yield per acre. India has the technology skills to enable farmers to improve the yield, predict the yield and plan the supply. You would wonder why this change is yet to happen at scale.
Fasal, a startup in agritech, has proved that Indian farmers can not just improve yields, but, make sustainability a core factor in the business.
By significantly reducing the use of chemicals and water Fasal has truly enabled a new age of agritech in India. Watch this interview with Shailendra Tiwari and TDK Ventures Managing Director, Anil Achyuta.
