    About AgroStar: AgroStar is India's foremost AgTech start-up with a mission of #HelpingFarmersWin.

    Today, AgroStar provides full-stack solutions to millions of farmers across 6 Indian states via an omnichannel approach. Along the journey, we have built India's largest agronomy advisory center, a highly engaged digital farmer network with over 7 million users, and a retail network of 7000+ stores. These technology-enabled channels work together to help farmers produce better and achieve higher price realizations by providing appropriate advice, timely input delivery, and output market linkages.
