Empowering Rajasthan’s Farmers: A Royal Discussion on Agribid’s Impact During a recent meeting, our Co-founder Mr. Ashutosh Mishra had the distinct honor of discussing Agribid’s transformative impact with His Highness - The Maharaja of Jodhpur. The conversation focused on two pivotal aspects: 1. Enhancing Farmer Incomes through the Agribid Model: Our Agribid model is crafted to significantly boost farmers' incomes. By leveraging technology and innovative market strategies, Agribid ensures farmers receive the best prices for their produce. The model reduces intermediaries, provides real-time market insights, and facilitates direct access to buyers, thereby empowering farmers and enhancing their earnings. 2. Expanding the PM Annabhandaran Yojna: The discussion also covered the implementation of the PM Annabhandaran Yojna at the district level in Rajasthan. We have successfully initiated this program in Jaipur, Sikar, and Jhunjhunu. Plans are underway to extend these benefits to Jodhpur and surrounding regions. This initiative aims to create efficient storage solutions, reduce post-harvest losses, and ensure food security, contributing to the overall agricultural development of the state. We remain dedicated to expanding our reach and continuing to support the agricultural community in Rajasthan and beyond. Stay tuned with us and be a part of this transformative journey. #agribidindia #agriculturaldevelopment #rajasthan #empoweringfarmers #jaipur #pmyojana #jodhpurhighness #rajasthanfarmers #transformation #meetup

Aspirational Indians - Lower than normal consumption in rural India has impacted volume growth of consumer companies. However what was heartening when I travelled to rural markets in Maharashtra and Bihar was the urge to upgrade and have a better lifestyle. While there was optimism in Bihar, in Maharashtra, where monsoons played spoilsport, the consumers urge to buy a new car or a bike was very much there. They have merely postponed their purchases and are buying only if they really need them. The Sonepur Mela in outskirts of Patna was a symbol of aspirational India - From pizza seasonings and ready-to-eat mixes to baby products and washing machine detergents, the rural consumers didn't bat an eyelid to pay a premium. A tattoo parlour, a live pizza station and a pastry cart were few of the other attractions at the mela! #ruralconsumption #aspirations #premium Mahindra Finance Maruti Suzuki India Limited Mahindra and Mahindra Limited [Automotive and Farm Equipment Business] Godrej & Boyce Mfg.

Yesterday was the interesting moment that happened in my life .. What surprised me that I was extremely confident at the time of conversation with the people which I was talking for the first time and he was living in a totally different state..😃 I talked to the distributors of @vesta ice cream which is the subsidiary company of kse.ltd located in Kerala. I was having a discussion on the growth , sales , marketing, competition and many things with the distributors and he was happily telling me about what the company is doing for the growth.. People who are from #kerala must knowing @ks park which is Thrissur.. I get to know that Milky Mist Dairy is entering that market too and providing many schemes to shopkeepers to keep their icecreams. This I can say is my first step towards learning much more about the business which we invest.. I am not saying it is the best way to know about the business but yes this gives a confidence.. I was not aware that the company is setting new factory and warehouse near Tamil Nadu border but one of the distributors told me and I became happy.. Seeing the business from outside can keep you in a dark room but after having insights, it boosts your confidence. The company is just having a valuation of 540cr and the leader in Kerala in cattle feed business.. Godrej Group is holding 7% stake in this company from so long and this make confident about their business and even the chairman of Godrej Agrovet Limited is holding 1.3% stake. Start discussing and start looking into the business which you are investing or the product which you are using.. Sitting in bihar and looking the business of Kerala can be only possible by reading concalls, having conversations with the locals on phone and having conversations with executives.

“Sangharsh hi sabse badi kaamyaabi hai. Agar badhna hai to peeche mud kar nahi dekhna hai.” Dharambir Kamboj told to indiatimes Dharambir Kamboj, born in 1963 in Damla Village, Haryana. He was forced to quit school to support his family, he moved to Delhi in the 80s for a better pay but ended up doing odd jobs, including pulling a cycle rickshaw. Turning Point of his life: A library in Old Delhi sparked his interest in farming. An accident made him return to his village, where he pursued agricultural training. In 2004, a visit to Rajasthan inspired him to explore aloe vera farming. Learning about expensive processing machinery, he decided to build his own. Innovation and Success After investing ₹25,000 and eight months of effort, Dharambir created the Multipurpose Processing Machine. During this period his father thought he was just wasting his time. This portable machine processes various fruits, herbs, and seeds, functioning like a pressure cooker with multiple features. He patented it and now sells it in 15 countries, earning lakhs annually. His innovation earned him the Haryana State Award in 2009. Dharambir’s perseverance turned him from a struggling labourer to a successful innovator, proving that hard work and determination can overcome any obstacle.

Nestled just 55 kilometers from Nashik city, Kopurli Khurd village is a stark contrast to urban comforts. With no access to piped water supply, the 2000 residents share a common struggle for water, epitomizing the unfulfilled dream of "Nal se jal" (water from taps). Instead of taps, the village relies on common wells, replenished by water tankers. Every morning, women queue up at these wells, spending hours fetching water for daily chores. Aruna Gaikwad describes their relentless routine, where procuring water consumes most of their day, leaving little time for other tasks or earning a livelihood. Ranjana Gaikwad highlights the onset of water scarcity from April onwards, worsening with each passing month. Even when water is available, it's often unfit for consumption, leading to health issues like diarrhoea, as shared by Ranjana Kamdi, a local clinic worker. Villagers pay a premium for water, with a drum costing 60 rupees for non-drinking purposes and roughly 1 rupee per liter for drinking water. Despite a zilla panchayat water tank, it runs dry in summer, further exacerbating the crisis. With aspirations limited to piped water, the villagers' plight epitomizes the urgent need for sustainable solutions.

Exploring the Vibrant Village Vegetable Markets of Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu 🌿🍅 Recently, I had the opportunity to experience the bustling local vegetable markets in the villages around Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu. These markets are more than just places to buy and sell produce; they are the heartbeat of the community, showcasing the rich agricultural heritage of the region. From fresh, locally-grown vegetables to unique herbs and spices, these markets offer a colorful array of products that highlight the hard work and dedication of local farmers. Each visit is a sensory delight with the aroma of fresh coriander, the vivid colors of ripe tomatoes, and the lively exchanges between traders and customers. What struck me most was the sustainable, community-driven approach to agriculture and trade. The markets operate with minimal waste, relying on traditional practices and a deep connection to the land. It’s a beautiful reminder of the power of local economies and the importance of supporting small-scale farmers who are the backbone of our food supply chain. If you ever find yourself in Coimbatore, take some time to visit these village markets. You'll not only find fresh, organic produce but also experience a slice of authentic Tamil culture and hospitality. #SustainableAgriculture #LocalMarkets #Coimbatore #TamilNadu #SupportLocalFarmers #CommunityTrade #Agriculture #OrganicFarming #CulturalExperience
