Crop Care
Considering the stiff competition from various fruit producing countries, Indian growers have the great responsibility to keep the pesticide residue levels to the minimum to meet international standards.

Hence, it is imperative to adopt such measures which would result in a pesticide residue-free produce and thus increase the value of our export.
