Cultivators of the Earth are the most valuable citizens. They are the most vigorous, the most independent, and are tied to their country and wedded to its liberty and interests by the most lasting bonds". – Thomas Jefferson.
The COVID-19 pandemic has shed light on the importance of eating healthy, to have a better immunity. However, in this fast- paced world, it is difficult to manage a healthy diet due to excessive use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides in the food and unavailability of organic foods. Sri Krishnaa Seeds is striving to make a difference in the food industry.
Sri Krishnaa Seeds is one of the pioneers in the Indian seed industry committed to serve the farming community and has been in the business of seed production and marketing for the last nine years. Established in 2013 at Tamilnadu, Sri Krishnaa Seeds aims to provide best quality seeds to the farmers so as to increase the yield.
The agriculture industry has changed over the last 50 years with advances in machinery, leading to
efficient cultivation of more land. Seeds, irrigation and fertilizers have also improved to help farmers increase the yield.
The company works with farmers at grass-root level to understand the demand in the market and they also have a customer helpline number which enables farmers to sort out their queries regarding the production and cultivation. Sri Krishnaa Seeds forms a crucial link between the research and development team and the farmers and has managed to secure a strong network in Tamil Nadu by providing quality seeds production and marketing for the benefits of the farmers.
Sri Krishna Seeds strongly believes and advocates the rights of the farmers and works with a sole mission of providing the farmers with seeds that have high yield, and are marketable so as to increase the living standard of the farmers. To achieve this, Sri Krishnaa Seeds has its own Research and Development team in place at Tamil Nadu and Telangana which is advised by retired senior scientist and well equipped with latest technology for processing, storage, and quality check.
The company practices double processing to maintain quality and longevity and avoids use of pesticides and chemicals for treating the seeds, instead the seeds have a turmeric coating. By doing so, it promotes the idea of chemical free, organic seeds, since they are more sustainable and environment friendly. It also makes sure, that the seeds pass the germination test both at their laboratory and the government laboratory, before packaging.
If we maintain quality, the demand will automatically be high
Through the constant effort of the R&D team, Sri Krishnaa Seeds wants to safeguard its position as one of the leading seed producers, especially that of paddy, to farmers in Tamil Nadu. The company aims to maintain the quality of seeds to boost the yield of crops, owing to the use of innovation and technology in the field. In the future, it envisions to keep growing and providing best quality seeds to the farmers not just in South India but across the nation. “If we maintain quality, the demand will automatically be high”, says Soundara Rajan, Head of Seeds Production and Marketing team.
