About Us
India's First Farmer Social Community
The Samriddhi Agri Service Center was established in 2018 in the village of Nani Khakhar with the goal of consistently improving agriculture and animal husbandry services to improve the community's livelihood and overall satisfaction.
The activities of the Samriddhi project are designed to meet the crucial needs of the local agrarian society, promoting a comprehensive development approach and improving community satisfaction. These initiatives were identified through a social audit conducted by CGPL – TATA POWER in the region. The audit revealed that the Samriddhi Project is a necessary and community-aligned initiative that supports traditional practices and generates livelihood opportunities.
The Samriddhi Project has worked alongside the local community to pinpoint and execute activities that address their essential requirements. These undertakings are being methodically rolled out in nearby villages with a particular set of interventions. The project is also focused on securing external funding, which will be used to reinvest in the ongoing project and the existing social capital in the region.

OUR HEALTHY CUSTOMERS!
By profession, I am a Homeopathy Doctor but since the last 15 years I have been doing farming at my native village Bidada – Kutch. I have set up Aromatic Oil Extraction Plants along with the cultivation of Palamrosa and Jamarosa. Since 2021, I have shifted to conventional farming along with the cultivation of Drum Stick Crop on 9 Acres of Land - I am a regular user of various products of the Samriddhi Centre. I have cultivated Drum Stick by using inputs from Samriddhi Centre.

I have bought all types of Bio Inputs from the Samriddhi Centre. Raju Chavda from Samriddhi Centre regularly visited my farm for guidance because I was cultivating vegetables for the first time in my farm. I got good results using the various products of Samriddhi Centre and with the help of Bio Resource Centre, I was able to cultivate all vegetables without any chemical inputs and ended up producing chemical-free vegetables and also improved the soil health of my farm.

In the year 2021-22, I cultivated Hybrid Cotton on 4.5 Acres of land with the drip irrigation system by using Bio Inputs purchased from the Samriddhi Centre. This drastically reduced the cost of chemical inputs in my farm and as a result, improved soil health which will boost my production in the coming years. For 2 years, I have been a regular customer at Samriddhi Centre and now have completely shifted to Chemical free farming and urge every famer to join this movement
