“Organic farming is our duty", Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, while addressing the nation on the 75th Independence Day on August 15. Modi ji mentioned organic and natural farming twice in his speech, as he talked about turning to chemical-free agriculture. This in itself is a strong signal of fast evolution of organic farming and thus organic agrochemicals in India.

The global organic agrochemical market is expected to be worth $13 billion by the end of 2022. The market will reach $25 billion by 2027, with a CAGR of 14 percent. Factors such as soil health degradation, decreased productivity, and rising instances of best interest are interesting indicators for the growth of organic agrochemicals. One of these is the indiscriminate and excessive use of chemical-based pest control methods, which will contribute to the growth of the organic and biological segment for crop protection and crop enhancement.

Making a move towards a sustainable future, MAXEEMA Biotech takes pride in introducing itself as one of the industry's pioneers in the field of certified organic/ biochemical agrochemicals for soil and crop care (crop protection and biostimulants). The company has been conducting research in this field since 1997 and is now the Top Indian Organic Crop Care Company with a state-ofthe- art production facility that adheres to GLP/GMP standards. The company has positioned itself as a responsible health organization to assist growers in providing healthy food to the world's 7.8 billion people. The firm promised to deliver new methods of protecting crop yields while also protecting biodiversity and natural resources and are leading the way with an integrated approach in which organics and synthetics coexist.

To meet the client's expectations, MAXEEMA has first and foremost demonstrated a few misconceptions about organic solutions, such as organic search results being limited, organic solutions are generally more expensive than conventional products, and they are less effective than chemical products. These are the three major myths about organic that exist in the market, so the company has proven all three hypotheses that meet.

MAXEEMA Biotech is well-known for its organic product line, as well as the 360-degree solution it provides to the market. The company’s commitment to sustainable organic agriculture drives their R&D efforts to develop organic solutions with competitive performance attributes, such as longer shelf life of the product performance at a lower use rate and compatibility with other chemicals.

MAXEEMA's green chemistry technology portfolio is among the most robust in the industry, with biostimulants, insecticides, viricides, nematicide, termiticide, fungicide, and many other new active ingredients serving as the foundation for new products that address growers' constantly evolving technological needs. The company has three different marketing divisions: contract manufacturing, retail marketing, and export. It has a robust sales network in India and the states of Nigeria. MAXEEMA has also been supplying products to numerous reputable manufacturers there as well as in the US, Germany, Israel, Kenya, Peru, Chile, and many other nations.

Most of the players in the market provide a part of the solution, either in crop protection or crop fertilizer programs. But, MAXEEMA Biotech offers an end-to-end 360-degree solution which is the key differentiator that sets it apart from competitors. It offers solutions ranging from soil treatment to seed treatment to crop harvesting for soil, seed, and crop protection, as well as fertilizer and services. Moreover, to gain the customer's trust, all of its products are certified organic by international and national standards. The company offers biopesticides like insecticides, (herbicides, larvicides, fungicides, viricides, nematicides, neem formulations, termiticides) biostimulants, PGR and agriculture adjuvants for soil, seeds and plants.

"We want to be the most admired Indian agrochemical company on the planet. Our growth will come from addition of few new verticals like microbial formulations, seeds & tissue culture division, Digital Grower advisory platform and onsite spray solutions by Drones. We are in to different phases of implementation of our future expansion goals. Our dedication to sustainable agriculture drives our 'Residue Free Farming (RFF) Initiative' to develop solutions with performance attributes that exceed the competition, including longer shelf life, performance at lower use rates, and compatibility with other chemistries. We propose to bring an IPO in late 2023 to meet the investment need for wide and deep expansion programme", concludes Kandarp Bakshi, Chairman of MAXEEMA Biotech.
