The product, which took about five years to develop, contains Tarma Spurt technology to provide growers with a reliable solution to improve crop quality and productivity. The company spent nearly a million dollars on the development of AgroGain, which bagged the Agrow Awards.
“We also have our own distribution channel to increase the reach of the product to maximum consumers. As we are a research organisation, we continue to upgrade and develop throughout the life cycle of the product,” Sowmya Balendiran, director, business development, Sea6Energy, told F&B News.
“We have tested our product in over 100 locations in India and overseas. We are in talks with global agri majors to take our product to various geographies around the world. We plan to launch it initially in the South-East Asian countries and then expand to the United States and Europe,” she added.
“We have launched this product in 2015, and the product has reached over a million farmers in three years. We have been fortunate to become one of the leading brands in India in the bio-stimulant segment,” Balendiran said.
“The farmers currently use fertilisers and insecticides as the major input in agriculture. The use of products to boost the growth and stimulate the plant to produce quality and additional yield has been improving in the last few years,” she added.
“We believe that our Indian farmers are always open to using new products if clear economic benefits can be demonstrated to them,” Balendiran said.
“There is a lot of thrust from the consumers about requiring organic and safe agricultural produce. Since all the products of Sea6 Energy are entirely natural without harmful chemicals and certified organic as per Indian and international standards, we believe that the farmers and consumers will benefit by using the product enabling us to continue growing in this space,” she added.
Sea6 Energy is one of the few companies globally which develop patented products backed entirely by strong scientific understanding. Though there are many players in the market, a consistent product which delivers good-quality yields to the farmers always manage to survive in the market.
“We are currently working on products which can enhance the plants ability to fight viral and fungal infections in a natural way effectively. Products that help in aiding the growth rates of fish and poultry are also underway,” she said.
