Fruges - From Earth For You

Fruges product Taaza Grow Seed Bombs Treated with Bio-fertilizer and Bio-Pesticides coated with Phyto-Polymers. It allows farmers to adopt organic farming fertilizing their crop, protects from any insect or disease with 10% to 50% less water. Yielding the equal harvest as of synthetic inputs in return
we get a transparent and traceable yield of safe to consume crop.

It’s energy and transportation cost required to manufacture and deliver
such huge quantity. Saving approximately 90% of the carbon emitted
during the whole supply chain.

Taaza Grow in addition of Organic Matter in soil by decomposing the
Organic waste, restores natural soil fertility, kills harmful
microbes and degrade toxic organic chemicals. Improves
crop production by 20-30%. While it also helps the farmers to generate
electricity and gas for cooking due to the ingredients being used.

The energy and transportation cost required to manufacture and deliver huge quantity of fertilizer and pesticides used for conventional farming contributes largely to the climate change due to the Carbon emitted during the whole production and supply chain. In addition, the conventional fertilizer and pesticides are destroying the agricultural biodiversity and polluting the soil, water, air and food chain. With emergence of current pandemic, we also identify that these inputs can cause resistance or mutation in genes of insect and pest. Like the moths and butterflies have developed their resistance. On the other side, with so many stuff farmers need to get its harvest, he has to interact and move to the shops number of times, with no means of understanding to social distancing. If he gets the virus, which he isn't literate of, the whole supply chain could become a subject to mass distribution of virus.

Taazagrow seed micro bomb are the combination of biological treatments, reducing cost of inputs required to fertilize the soil,  to protect crops, enhancing irrigation efficiency and for fuel required to procure & transport these inputs. Saving approx. 90% of the carbon emitted during the whole process.

Our seed micro bomb, are made up of Bio-fertilizer and Bio-Pesticides coated with Phyto Polymers, allows farmers to adopt organic farming fertilizing their crop, protects from any soil borne insect or disease with 10% to 50% less water making it one stop solution to grow their crops .

In addition of Organic Matter in soil by decomposing the Organic waste, it restores natural soil fertility, kills harmful microbes and degrade toxic organic chemicals. Upon fermenting it with organic waste, it gives liquid culture, that can be used to protect crop from air borne insect. Eventually improves crop production by 20-30%. While it also helps in enhancing the traceability and transparency of crop produced.

During our summer internship of undergrad studies, we went to conduct survey in a village, while returning we stop by a shop to have tea, when we took the first sip we identified that it lacks sugar, we asked the shop keeper, to bring some sugar, he brought it and apologize by sharing the insights that people here in the village never asked to have sugar. Insight from the shop keeper brought curiosity and upon further investigation on later days of survey we found that more than 70% of the villager were declared diabetic which was the reason for them to quit having sugar, during the warm day we decide to drink water from well, and as soon as we drank, the taste of chemical fertilizer can easily be identified, later that day farmers offered us to have fresh harvest, we move to the farm which was being sprayed by pesticides, farmer went into that farm, pluck some papaya, dip it into water and served everyone. This was an alarming situation for us, which lead us to innovate accordingly.

Taazagrow, allows farmers to adopt organic farming fertilizing their crop, protects from soil borne insect or disease with less water water.

Farming is the essential practices required to survive, to make it sustainable, ecofriendly and economical for any type of farmer is necessity. Taazagrow, allows to farmers to produce agricultural goods, with sustainable resources and less fuel.

Our business model provides the farmer to procure our seed bombs either with cash payment or if the farmer is poor and unable to pay debt, the farmer gives us their harvest, which is then sold in the market and the profit is shared among both Fruges and Farmers. With these seed bombs, it is easier to track and trace the inputs used.

Biotech and ICT allows us to integrate, trace and communicate in an efficient way.

Current: 1 Farmers and 1 Farming Community

One year: 50 Farmers and 5 Farming Communities.

Five Year: 50000 Farmers and 100 Farming Communities.

we have conducted field trials for individual treatments, & combination of pre & post treatments. The results so far are encouraging, for the farmers.

Individual trails have been done on tomato & wheat crops, while combination of trails have been done on Integrated farm on Mango, Olive, Lemon, Melon Family. Seed treatment have been done on Cotton crop which is under progress.

We don't have enough fund to file for international patent.
One most important factor we face for the most of the time is, as soon as we start producing first pilot batch, which is usually 5 - 10 kg of capacity, we receive orders of commodities in tons, having such huge order is at one point is motivating, but not having the capacity of fulfilling these orders are often depressing. We lack production capacity, brand recognition, distribution vehicles, and coding.

By Not Giving Up.

We now are working towards establishing partnership with farmers and communities and developing research and develop field which will serves as production area, r4d fields and community engagment point.
