With the agriculture and allied sector growing around 4.4 per cent per annum, several agritech companies are at play as they focus on solving supply chain inefficiencies and boosting income. The relentless focus on research and development in agricultural innovation coupled with modernisation and mechanisation has increased the output and added significantly to the economy.

Amid the rapid adoption of new technology in farming and an increase in the speed at which farms are mechanised, agricultural input sector player Nirman Agri Genetics has announced that it has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Toshan Seeds.
