“Inclusive and Sustainable Agribusiness Model of Jain Irrigation

for Replication in Newer Geographies with Small Holder

Agriculture”

Technologies have to be Smallholder Compatible

India is a country of Smallholders

87 % Farmers have land holding less than 2 hectares

What Small Holder needs?

Increased Income Through Increased

What all happened?

• Our sales increased by 10 times.

• Our profitability increased 7 times.

• Farmers’ productivity increased 3.5 times.

• Salary of associates increased 4 times.

• Employment went up 3 times.

• Water saving increased 3.5 times.

• Energy saving grew by 2 times.

• Reduced rejection by about 10 times.

• Increased productivity per unit of resource employed.

• Excellence in management of:

Human resources.

Quality improvements.

Innovation in every aspect of operation.

R & D support.

Economics of scale.

• Profit did not come from increase in price

Where did profit come from?

• All in all, our approach was that we care and share with every stakeholder:

The customer: Better product at reduced price.

The associates: Higher compensation.

The environment: Saving of Water and energy.

Share holder: Higher Dividend.

Government: Higher Tax revenue.

The society: Employment generation, rural development and women empowerment.

How did each stake holder benefit?

Jain Gap- Farm Level Food Safety

• Primarily designed TO REASSURE CONSUMERS of

the Processed Products about how food is produced on

the farm by

1. Taking care of the Food Safety & health Hazard aspects

2. Reduce risks associated with the use of pesticides &

other chemical inputs

3. Ensuring workers health, safety, Hygiene, sanitation

& animal welfare

4. Sustainability of agriculture & other farm resources

5. Complete traceability of the Product upto farmer level

JAINGAP STANDARDS • JAINGAP is a Country Level scheme and

Trying to established itself as a key reference for Good Agricultural Practices any where in the country for Small & Marginal Farmers

• Pre farm-gate standard –JAINGAP covers the process from farm inputs through all farm activities till the produce leaves the farm

Innovative Approach

• The initiation of Jain GAP is innovative approach as this is happening for the first time in India in corporate agriculture.

• This will also facilitate introduction of Good agricultural practices to a vast segment of farming community of small and marginal farmers, which otherwise would not have been possible.

Jain Irrigation in the water sector is active across all levels of shared value creation

Clusters and Framework Conditions

Advocating for financial incentives that encourage greater efficiency Supporting water rights markets with appropriate valuation and water rights trading mechanisms Promoting better watershed management and/or co-investing in strengthening water infrastructure

Value Chain Productivity

Using more water-efficient processes Increasing supplier awareness of process innovations

Products and Markets

Enabling agricultural users to use water more efficiently and sustainably Enabling industrial users to reduce water consumption and reuse industrial byproducts Enabling water utilities to improve water quality and increase service reliability Enabling consumers to use less water or purify water to potable standards

The most common level of shared value creation for companies today is around value chain productivity

Integration of following components is referred as IIS

Development of Water Source.

Conveyance of water from source thru closed piping up to farm gate.

On farm Irrigation thru Micro Irrigation which applies water to roots.

Provision of Pumping, Power* network, Automation & Civil work.

O & M, training & capacity building of beneficiaries through WUAs.

What is Integrated Irrigation Solution (IIS)?

* Either Solar or Electrical.

Water footprint of Onion and Dehydrated Onion

Virtual water trade reduced

= 15,000 (total ton)*1200

(WF)*1000* 30% (DHO produced on

drip irrigated onion)

= 1,80,00,000 m3

= 18 MCM per Annum

The pilot study by Limno Tech +Nature Conservancy +Jain Irrigation + IFC

on De-Hydrated Onion (DHO) with and without drip irrigation.

Key results :

Water foot print for DHO with Drip Irrigation : - 1800L/kg

Water Foot print for DHO on Flood Irrigation : - 3000L/Kg

Savings = 1200 L/Kg per annum
