In response to Here's how to make it big in agri business
Mahesh Kulkarni | October 29, 2005
Good news for agriculture graduates. This initiative by the company can help many to fulfill their big dream of being an entrepreneur at a very pity cost of 800,000. But the factor to look upon is that whether the farmer community in India is ready for such a cultural shift because most of the farm inputs are purchased at credit from a local outlet and payment is made only after selling the harvest at the end of the season. It seems easy to start but the operating cost will be the real investment. Can any agriculture graduate really bear it?
