Achieving considerate growth
Progress doesn’t have to come at any cost. We’re building a peanut industry that is sustainable and connected. Protecting industry stakeholders and stewarding a better marketplace wherever we’re involved.
For us, how we do business is as important as our products. That’s why we work with suppliers to drive up labour standards, environmental protections, and dignity in the workplace.
And we’re not stopping there.

Growth is our purpose
Without growth, there would be no peanuts. Here’s how we’re sharing the yield.
Contract farming
We help our growers monitor and control the quality and productivity of their peanut crops. By collaborating with governments, non-government institutions, Farmer Producer Organizations (FPOs), trusts, societies, and farmers, we integrate the value chain.
Our farmers benefit from:
-
Seed selection and the supply of certified sowing seeds
-
Soil and germination analysis
-
Fertiliser and pesticide management
-
Pre- and post-harvest critical control points
-
International best practice guidelines
-
Access to our premium processing and drying facilities
Commercial farming
Agrocrops also leases land for large-scale commercial and mechanised farming. Ranging from 100 to 500 acres, our captive farmland produces high peanut yields, following our refined quality practices.
Supported by our expert agronomist team and the latest American farm-tech and cultivation practices, we continually work to improve productivity.

Seed breeding
Our commitment to sustainability drives a focus on seed breeding to ensure the quality of our farmers’ seeds remains high. The seed industry is worth half a billion dollars in India alone, and our supply chain distribution strives to re-engineer the sector for improved peanut productivity. We work closely with ICRISAT, ICAR, and other government organizations to help farmers improve their yields.

Ending child labour

As a responsible, ethically conscious company, no children under the age of 18 are employed – directly or indirectly – by Agrocrops. We demand the same throughout our production chain, and from all our business partners and suppliers.
However, around the world millions of children are still forced to work in poor conditions. We stand against all forms of child exploitation, and are committed to a future in which they are freed from their suffering.
