Agrochemicals commonly referred to as crop protection chemicals consist of a broad range of pesticides, including insecticides, herbicides and fungicides manufactured through chemical processes. These crop protection products contain the active ingredient in a definite concentration and are designed to protect crops from insects, diseases, weeds and play a vital role in controlling the pests and diseases that infect, consume or damage crops thereby significantly reducing the quantity and quality of food production.

Among many issues affecting agriculture in India, 'Safety and handling of Agrochemicals' and 'Proliferation of Spurious Crop Protection Chemicals and Companies' are impacting crop yield, farmer health and the environment significantly. For sustainable agriculture and a healthy ecosystem, it is imperative that technology plays an important role in improving the ground conditions.

'Krishi Kuber ' is a digital platform that has been created to capture correct information around Farm Inputs like Insecticides, Herbicide, Plant Growth Regulators and Fungicides. Through this platform we will disseminate important information about these Agrochemicals like formulations, toxicity, purpose, benefits and dosage etc. by listing product portfolios of these agrochemical manufacturers.We intend to promote the benefits and responsible usage of 'certified crop protection products', based on regulatory system information to protect people and the environment. The farmer who is unable to read this information published in product labels and leaflets will find our digital platform very useful. As a growth strategy, we will publish important information on other farm inputs like seeds and fertilizers in the near future.

Our initiative is to reach various stakeholders of the value chain including farmers, dealers, retailers, agrochemical manufacturers and several other bodies working in this field to jointly shape the agriculture that India needs!
