eFarm launches agri business consulting & training

[Venkat]

Owing to encouraging response from our earlier talks and discussions ,
a lot of farmers, entrepreneurs, students have been approaching us for
guidance on agri business and marketing related inputs. Several of our
customers too have been requesting assistance in integrating and
streamlining their supply chain systems and processes. So far we had
been doing this on an informal basis , but as the volume of such
queries has increased, we have decided to launch a separate agri
business consulting and training division of efarm.
