fiogf49gjkf0d Camson Bio Technologies Ltd recently inked a pact with Vazhakkulam Pineapple Growers and Processors Pvt. Ltd (VPGP) in Kerala.
The move materialised after VPGP performed a thorough test and field trials of Camson’s products, which are based on microbial extract.
The pact, signed by Joy Mathew, MD, VPGP, and Sundaresh Krishnamoorthy, country head, institutional business, Camson Bio Technologies, marked the beginning of a new era in the pineapple farming industry, according to Camson.
“Our range of products are proved to be effective and economical. It ensures zero residue. Now VPGPL is one of the most trusted farmer associations that reaches out to over 500 large pineapple growers that cultivate the fruit over 30,000 hectare across Kerala. It felt the need to protect and enhance the soil health and decided to encourage the usage of advance zero residue technology for pineapple farming. This will help every farmer associated with the organisation to go organic, eco-friendly, improve land conditions, boost yields and reduce the cost of cultivation,” stated Krishnamoorthy.
“Further, it will lead other pineapple growers to follow our zero residue solutions to the growers not only in India but across the world,” he added.
“We have teamed up with Camson to encourage zero residue cultivation amongst the pineapple farmers of Kerala. This is all set to redefine growing practices in the pineapple industry. Also, the farmers can expect a better realisation in national as well as international markets,” observed Baby John, executive director, VPGP.
Camson’s new building constructed at its mother plant in Dodaballapur houses a new state-of-the art laboratory & research centre. While, the production facility at Dodaballapur services the markets of southern and western India, the company’s manufacturing & production facilities at its Nangal plant in Himachal Pradesh caters to the increasing demand from its strategic and key markets of northern and eastern India.
