India: INERA Crop Science and CropNXT Partner to Expand Biological Agri-Input Access Across Five States

Partnership targets outreach to 6.5 million farmers through 5,000+ channel partners, with a projected business opportunity of ₹500 crore and adoption across 2 million acres

29 June 2026, New Delhi: INERA Crop Science and CropNXT Solutions have announced a multi-year partnership to expand the availability of biological agricultural inputs across five Indian states—Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand and Odisha. The collaboration combines INERA’s biological agri-input portfolio with CropNXT’s distribution network to increase market access for biological crop solutions.

According to the companies, the partnership has the potential to generate a business opportunity of approximately ₹500 crore over its duration, driven by increasing demand for biological agricultural inputs in India.

The companies also stated that they aim to reach 6.5 million farmers through a network of more than 5,000 channel partners and retail outlets, while promoting the adoption of biological agri-inputs across approximately 2 million acres of cultivated land.

The partnership will initially focus on Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand and Odisha, where the companies see opportunities for biological inputs in paddy, maize and vegetable production. CropNXT’s regional distribution network will be used to expand the availability of INERA’s products in these markets.

INERA will contribute its biological product portfolio, while CropNXT will provide distribution, retailer engagement and farmer outreach through its existing value-chain network in eastern and northern India.

Commenting on the partnership, Agam Khare, Founder of INERA Crop Science, said the collaboration aims to expand access to biological agricultural technologies for Indian farmers and support wider adoption of regenerative farming practices.

Ajeet Singh Chahal, Founder of CropNXT Solutions Pvt. Ltd., said the partnership will enable the company to offer biological agri-input solutions through its existing distribution ecosystem and strengthen its product portfolio for farmers and channel partners.

According to the companies, the collaboration is intended as a long-term commercial partnership focused on expanding the adoption of biological agricultural inputs across key agricultural regions of India.
