Organic Farming
Organic farming works in harmony with nature rather than against it. This involves using techniques to achieve good crop yields without harming the natural environment or the people who live and work in it. I have the required expertise to help farmers pursue organic farming on profitable lines. I have successfully helped convert several farms carrying out modern agricultural practices into organic farms. I have helped Terra-Green Ventures Private Limited shift gears from modern farming to organic strawberry cultivation in Coonoor with concomitant massive profits. I have replicated the same results in several farms while growing cereals and grain in Madurai, Rajapalayam, Kanchipuram etc . I can help farmers adopt organic farming in wide variety of horticultural and agricultural crops.
