In agriculture, nothing is wasted if one knows how to make good use of it. Centuries of farming followed the linear approach, such as produce, consume, and discard. Additional side effects are that natural resources are being drained. A different approach now rewrites this story, namely, the circular farming systems. These systems represent the circular […]

If you have ever wondered about the reason for a considerable rise in the price of onions, or why a bag of rice seems more expensive this year than last year’s cost, commodity price volatility is generally the answer. It sounds like a technical word, but its impact is deeply human, dictating a farmer’s income, a household’s expenses at the store, and market stability overall. With significant challenges from the realities of a changing weather pattern, wars impacting trade, a

The whole world is recalling the way of enjoying meals. Processed fast foods are giving way to thoughtful decisions, and the tradition of cuisine of yesteryears is making a gigantic comeback to the contemporary plate. Pulses and whole grains are at the center here, being consumed not just for their flavour but for their tested-and-proven nutritional values. Health benefits of whole grain and the health benefits of processed pulses are now complemented by global research and n

The reality of present-day agriculture is still undecided as to which way to go. One way is to completely depend on synthetic fertilizers and chemicals, which would mean the risks of soil degradation, environmental damage, and a decline in yield over the long term. The other way is a more balanced manner: making use of nature’s partners to restore soil, increase plant strength, and do crop production in a sustainable way. Biostimulants in agricultural practice and biofertiliz

Sustainable Crop Protection with Integrated Crop Management “If the farmer is happy, the country is happy” – such wise words hold for our farm system. But the largest problem for farmers these days is crop loss to pests and diseases. Pests damage up to 40% of global crops every year, according toFAO statistics. Historically, we used pesticides, which were an answer for a while but gave rise to a plethora of problems in the long term, like a decline in soil fertility, water co

Take a stroll down a plantation, perhaps tea on hill mists, coffee under sprawling covers, or rubber under infinite fields, and you would see something consistent in the backdrop of all these: the soil. Perhaps leaves, fruits, and harvests are in sight, but it is the soil that quietly works to give life. Soil is like a long-term business partner in so many aspects. When it is taken care of, it provides support for growth over decades; when neglected, it cuts off support at an
