“Once you get the right soil, water and fertiliser management skills, it’s also about setting up the right supply chain, cold storage facilities to maximize returns on farming output.” Added Renuka Khekade
“We farmers treat our trees and plantation as family. When the Tauktae cyclone struck in May 2021, we saw our trees uprooted, some damaged badly. We were in tears. Our entire farming community managed to get the necessary soil in trucks to fix the damaged trees. So it’s always trees first, we looked at our houses later. If we had better predictions on weather, our farming community would really appreciate that.” Renuka Khekade added.
The western ghats region is rich with productive soil and the mangoes from there are world-famous.
Renuka Khekade also added that they have established the right supply chain connections that deliver farm to Market the raw produce as well as process time-critical produce for related products such as mango pulp.
Companies like Quanto Agroworld Private Limited have maximum reach in the farming community for “farm to fork” based model strategy supported by the retail chain store called QU Mart located in Mumbai.
