“With climate change emerging as a huge challenge in the agriculture sector, it is essential that we build resilience with the help of technology. The majority of India still depends on agriculture; however, the sector is still starved of technology due to it being inaccessible or too expensive. At GROWiT, our commitment is towards developing sustainable agriculture with optimization of productivity by making available affordable tools like India’s First Pocket-Friendly Soil Health Testing Device, which provides soil composition insights and crop recommendations tailored to soil types. GROWiT aims to transform agriculture by increasing yields, cutting input costs, and driving sustainable farming, positioning us as a comprehensive, one-stop solution for farmers,” he also added.
