Applaud Budget 2022 For Bringing In Considerable Focus On Clean Eating And Sustainable Farming

Post the Budget 2022 announcement, please find below a quote from my client, Shriya Naheta Wadhwa, Founder of Zama Organics on the Budget's focus on organic farming and a sustainable future for agriculture and the food-delivery ecosystem. 

He said, "We applaud Budget 2022 for bringing in a considerable focus on clean eating and sustainable farming with impactful steps announced in this direction. Incentives to farmers, MSMEs to adopt natural farming will encourage increasing numbers of stakeholders to look at entering organic farming space as a highly lucrative opportunity, giving a much-needed boost to the ecosystem in distress. The decision to involve education and training in organic farm practices is a step in the direction to set a strong foundation, with more talent right from entrepreneurs to farmers coming with advanced knowledge to further elevate the existing system. An applause-worthy step among the many positive decisions is Fund to be facilitated through NABARD to smoothen financing of startups in the ecosystem to beat agrarian distress is a great promise which will help reduce uncertainty for startups and attract sophisticated tech-based competencies. Additionally, focusing on warehousing and transportation to help the faster movement of supplies will aid in supplying fresh produce and uplift the larger goal of organic farming. A multi-fold approach was much anticipated and as players, in the ecosystem, the future looks promising"
