ABOUT US.
Technology solutions for small farmers.
We design, adapt and implement low-cost farming solutions that help small farmers increase yield and predictability of produce. We combine these technologies with end-to-end support to give these farmers a seamless path towards income increase. We have developed a “Greenhouse-in-a-box” – an affordable, modular greenhouse, bundled with full-stack agronomy services, that uses 90% less water, grows 7 times more food, increases climate resilience, and gives farmers a steady dependable income.
OUR GREENHOUSE IN A BOX.
OUR SOLUTION.
SMALL STEPS TOWARDS LARGE SCALE IMPACT.
Eight in ten of the world’s farmers are smallholders. Beset by climate-affected harvests, our Greenhouse-in-a-Box is helping them reduce climate risk and increase yields.
We are currently working with 5000 farmers in 8 states of India. We aim to reach one million farmers by 2033!
