The Indian Tea industry is probably going through one of the most difficult periods in recent times. While production more or less is on schedule or even much higher compared to that of last year, it is the price factor which have been a constant bother. Moreover increasing cost of production is eating away the major share of revenue and in many cases the producers are finding it difficult to reach a break even point. Clearly a crisis seems to be at hand.
To increase the productivity of the garden also to increase remuneration for the producers, affordable to domestic consumers and yet have sufficient surplus to meet the export requirements, the implementation of Research & Development package would be essential.
ShaktiBiotech is also concerned about the dwindling price trends, intensity of pests and diseases, low return in the domestic market of the various other problems of Indian Agricultural production. In some cases, farmers are compelled to switch over to new areas of cultivation or crop production for remuneration of that which they incurred in the growing stages of the crop cultivation.
Looking at a variety of problems with varied intensity, ShaktiBiotech modestly claims to provide solutions to specific and general problems of Indian Tea and Agricultural sector which is a crying need of today. The objective of this R&D is not only to increase the brand equity quantitatively but also qualitatively by going for further value addition.
