Well its seems to be a great oppurtunity to create agriprenuers. Does it limit to only agri graduates? I to am an enterprenuer and belong to service industry. The focus should be to make the farmers make money and self sufficient. I appreciate the fact of removal of middle man from this system. The ultimate aim is to provide better service to customers and create wealth for everybody in the system. Hope that I can be one of your enterprenuer.

Good news for agriculture graduates. This initiative by the company can help many to fulfill their big dream of being an entrepreneur at a very pity cost of 800,000. But the factor to look upon is that whether the farmer community in India is ready for such a cultural shift because most of the farm inputs are purchased at credit from a local outlet and payment is made only after selling the harvest at the end of the season. It seems easy to start but the operating cost will be the real investment. Can any agriculture graduate really bear it?
