Year: 2021
Founders: Hemant Nandaram Jamdar, Bhaskar Dilbar Wagh
Introduction
AgriBird Services Pvt. Ltd., instituted in November 2021 and based in Pune, Maharashtra, is India’s newest star in the AgriTech firmament. Its vision to transform rural agriculture through digitization is spearheaded by its digital platform, which is full-stack and covers farm inputs, agronomic advisory, and doorstep delivery. Blending user-friendly technology with critical agricultural expertise, the company equips marginal and small farmers with the capability to farm smart, save costs, and increase productivity. Within a very brief period of time, AgriBird has become a reliable partner to farmers looking for timely, transparent, and effective farming practices.
Tackling Agricultural Challenges
Pan-India farmers generally suffer from broken supply chains, poor quality input access, and no trusted crop-specific advice. These feed through into reduced yields and increased input expenses. AgriBird addresses these fundamental issues by de-mystifying procurement by means of an online-driven model—linking farmers with vetted suppliers and agronomy professionals directly. By the timely provision of inputs, available counsel, and immediate support, AgriBird enables farmers to cut reliance on middlemen, eliminate efficiency gaps in operations, and make well-educated cultivation decisions suitable for their specific crops and locations.
Key Offerings
AgriBird’s offerings are tailored to address the day-to-day needs of Indian farmers through its digital platform:
- E-commerce for Farm Inputs: Quality fertilizers, seeds, pesticides, and tools available online with doorstep delivery
- Personalized Agronomic Advisory: Crop-specific expert guidance delivered digitally and through call support
- Transparent Procurement: Safe return policies, verified product listings, and upfront pricing ensure farmer trust
- Easy Accessibility: Website and mobile interface designed for ease of use, even in low-connectivity areas
- Convenience-first Model: Inputs are delivered directly to farmers’ homes, saving time, labor, and travel costs
Real Impact
AgriBird’s impact lies in its ability to simplify farming for the digitally underserved. By delivering quality inputs directly to farms and coupling it with timely, actionable agronomy support, the startup is helping reduce input waste and crop failure. Farmers using AgriBird’s services report improved yields and greater confidence in their farming decisions. Many have significantly cut down on procurement-related travel costs and delays, translating into more efficient seasonal planning. AgriBird’s tech-first, farmer-friendly approach is not only improving profitability but also building a new level of trust in digital agriculture among rural communities.
Success Story
Take Sunil Pawar, a smallholder farmer in Maharashtra who grows vegetables on two acres. Before AgriBird, he often missed ideal sowing periods due to late delivery of inputs from local shops. After joining AgriBird, he began ordering seeds and fertilizers online, receiving them at his doorstep on time. Using AgriBird’s agronomic guidance, he improved his crop rotation pattern and adopted better pest management practices. His yields rose by nearly 25%, and he now refers AgriBird to neighboring farmers. Sunil’s experience shows how removing friction from input procurement and advice can transform rural livelihoods and create farmer champions for AgriTech adoption.
