Many people today own agricultural land that is either underutilised, giving very low returns, difficult to manage properly, or just simply is sitting unused. And many such people keep posting in these very subs.

We are working with landowners to help develop orchard plantations that can generate long-term income over time.

This includes: land preparation, plantation planning, drip irrigation setup, saplings and planting, soil improvement systems, and also ongoing guidance and maintenance support.

And in some cases, if the land location and your budget allow, the same land can also be developed into slow-living farm stays alongside the orchards. (We are also building a slow living farm homes brand, in-house)

The idea is simple: instead of land sitting idle, can it become something productive, beautiful, and income-generating over the long term?

We are a team of Agriculture Scientists with PhDs, designers, and execution experts.

The business is still new though, and we are actively looking to work with a few landowners and pilot projects.

Happy to connect if you have agricultural land and are exploring ideas around orchard development or farm-based stays, or just want to turn that into income generating asset over time.

I’ve been thinking a lot about how:

• store-bought herbs spoil quickly
• many people worry about pesticides
• apartment living makes gardening difficult
• most home gardening systems feel messy, expensive, or too complicated

I’m exploring an idea around a simple countertop growing setup for kitchens/apartments and wanted honest opinions.

Would people realistically use something like this regularly?

What would stop you from trying it?

I am from karnataka and just visited bihar for a week. Huge banana plantations near hajipur and muzaffarpur.

I think someone can easily start a banana fibre business there.

Hi Community,

Has anybody done bamboo farming in North Karnataka region , mainly in and around Belagavi, Dharwad, and Hubli region.. This is a crop that interests me ,so would like to learn more about it..I have a small parcel of land = 1.2 acre..
Best way to learn would be meet someone who is into this, while I try to get basic knowledge from online resources (youtube, blogs, NMB etc..)

My Agriculture experience is 1/10 😄..

Thanks in advance for any responses, leads..

Hello - I am planning to plant moringa plants to make moringa powder in my land and want to understand it if there is really demand for it. I see there are lot of sellers but want to understand if there are really that many buyers. Also, does the brand like Tata or any other big player do they buy it? Or any other wholesale buyer or exporters ? Any farmer with real experience of selling it.

I have 10 acres of land in Haryana which is very fertile and gives approx 1.2 lakh profit per acres per annum means overall 12 lakh per annum.

There are two main crops wheat and rice only but I'm looking for any good idea for use that land for more profitable business or can say modern agriculture like green house or similar like that so if anyone has good knowledge and experience in this field let me know

If you want site visit I can host you and together we can find opportunities.

I can also give 1-2 acres for experiment also.

If anyone has any profitable deals let me know

I can provide my land and other resources if needed

Thanks

Btw I'm a software engineer and currently working as a freelancer

Produced ~1000 quintals of glyphosate-free / 2,4-D-free wheat this year in India. Thought selling it would be easy because everyone talks about “chemical free food” online… reality is completely different.

Biggest challenge isn’t production. It’s logistics and retail distribution.

Most retail buyers only want 2–3 quintals at a time, but transporting small quantities across states becomes expensive and complicated very fast. Local mandi buyers don’t care about the difference and pay almost the same as regular wheat.

We avoided pre-harvest glyphosate and 2,4-D sprays completely, maintained separate handling, and focused on cleaner grain quality — but finding serious buyers is much harder than growing the crop.

Anyone here dealing with direct-to-consumer grain sales or niche agriculture products?
How are you solving:
- small order transport
- trust/certification issues
- retail packaging
- repeat customers
- interstate delivery costs

Feels like farmers can produce premium food, but the supply chain is built only for bulk commodity trading.

Hey everyone,

Looking for advice from people who are actually in the dehydrated fruit/vegetable powder business — founders, manufacturers, exporters, or anyone with real experience.

I’m from India and have been researching dehydrated and spray-dried fruit/vegetable powders for B2B, D2C, and export opportunities. I’m seriously considering starting, but I only have around $2,000 (~₹1.7L) to begin with, which is honestly my last meaningful savings.

Wanted some real feedback:

• Did you start with B2B, D2C, or exports?
• Are margins actually good?
• Manufacturing in-house or outsourcing?
• Biggest mistakes you made?
• Is there still room for new players?
• What would you do differently if starting again?

Not looking for motivational answers — just honest advice from people actually in the business. Even a “don’t do it” would help.

Would genuinely appreciate any guidance 🙏

Give me ideas guys....!

Area : Madurai, Tamil Nadu

Hello community,

I need some help around what can I start with almost 6-7 acres of land in Hardoi District, UP (Farming dominated area).

Some Context: Me and My brother are working in tech jobs. Agri land mostly was given on lease to local farmers in village which yielded very less. Major Crops grow around that area are sugercane and Wheat.

Can you guys help me with the ideas around agri business with some investment (lets say 10 lacs) My father can overlook day to day operation part of it.

Thanks.

I am looking to start a farming business and am searching for some land in Maharashtra. It does not need to be close to a city or town. What is the per acre cost if your respective village or town ?
