A New Approach to Sustainable Farming in India

India’s leading agritech company, Dhanuka Agritech, and Spain’s primary biotech firm, Kimitec, have taken a significant step towards the future of sustainable farming in India. Having signed a ‘Letter of Intent’, they have laid the ground for exploring cooperative business opportunities. These collaborative efforts could potentially lead to the establishment of a joint venture and a unique research and development facility in India itself.

Merging Efforts for a Greener Future

The partnership between these two powerhouses marks a crucial change in the field of agriculture. Their joint venture goals encompass the creation and promotion of bio-based products that support sustainable farming. These products, originated from natural materials like botany, microbiology, microalgae, and bioinformatics aim to enhance protection of crops, soil health, and facilitate better plant nutrition. They serve as a multi-purpose toolkit for Indian farmers; they can use them independently or in tandem with conventional chemical solutions, to overcome traditional agricultural hurdles.

Forging Ahead with Leaders at the Helm

The Joint Managing Director of Dhanuka Agritech, Rahul Dhanuka, has expressed his company’s dedication to providing high-quality, eco-friendly alternatives to Indian farmers. He attributes the increased demand for bio-based products in India as a primary motivator for this strategic alliance. Kimitec, on the other hand, offers its broad-based global experience, including its notable contribution to the establishment of Europe’s significant biotech innovation hub, the MAAVi Innovation Center, and a presence in over 100 countries across the globe.

Reimagining the Future of Global Food Production

Félix García, CEO of Kimitec, envisions a time where sustainable farming practices transform worldwide food production. He perceives Dhanuka Agritech, with its strong ties with top global agrochemical organizations and a firm commitment to technological advancement and precision farming, as an essential associate in making this vision a reality. The partnership intends to provide natural and efficient solutions to Indian farmers, thus molding a future where agriculture is not just productive but also environmentally sustainable.
