More about Saurabh Agarwal
Founder & CEO @ GROWiT- Helping farmers grow with protective farming | Hiring for all roles
Having the desire to grow my own food, I started growing crops on my small farmland in 2017. With no prior knowledge of farming, Google was my only teacher. While scrolling the internet for more methods, me and my brother, Akshay came across the concept of "protective farming,” which was helping farmers enhance their farm produce.
Unfortunately, we didn’t find any high quality protective farming products. We decided to make these products using our own machines. Starting with mulch and crop covers, we were stunned by the results and asked two farmers to try them as well. Needless to say, they were shocked as well to see their farm produce. This gave birth to GROWiT - India’s leading protective farming company.
We have helped 25000+ farmers across 4 states with our sustainable products.
Along with GROWiT, I also co-founded Navitas Alpha - a venture into manufacturing solar panel protector films.
Prior to this, I ran my family venture, Alpha Plastomers for 15 years that taught me pretty much everything I know today along with my degrees from Cardiff university, UK and SP Jain Institute of Management and Research.
With GROWiT, our mission is to become the Largest Protective farming company of India that helps farmers double their farm output and farm income sustainably.
I love to have intriguing conversations about farming and entrepreneurship. Feel free to initiate one at [email protected]
