Sinopsis

I first discovered Sathya and his work with Keythi in a National Geographic article. I was moved by their work to improve the lives of small farmers through technology, innovation and creativity. Keythi designs, adapts and implements low-cost farming solutions that help small farmers increase yield and predictability of produce. They combine these technologies with end-to-end support to give these farmers a seamless path towards income increase. They have developed a “Greenhouse-in-a-box” – an affordable, modular greenhouse bundled with full stack services that uses 90% less water, grows 7 times more food and gives farmers a steady dependable income. Sathya started his career in accounting, taxation and finance. Quitting his job at PwC, he founded a couple of Agriculture startups to increase his happiness and increase income for farmers; this lead to the formation of Kheyti. He writes on farm matters in Business Line, HuffPost, SSIR, SciDevNet and became a Rainer Arnhold Fellow in 2018, an Aspen New Voices Fe
