Sailing Against the Wind
With the consulting system lacking an interactive model to meet the varied requirements of the clients, Clean Green Biosystems initially faced a lot of challenges when they started off in 2011. The reluctant nature of people and their unassertive approach towards new ideas and technologies proved to be a tight spot for the company. But with the help of a competent team, it was able to make its way to the top of the ladder and emerge as one of the best green consultancy companies. "We have developed a unique classification of the consultancy services viz, Design, Research, Analysis and Allied. We have also adopted GAP norms and strictly adheres to precision farming principles,"he says, profoundly.

The Growth Story
As a bootstrapped company, Clean Green Biosystems is fully managed by Dr. S. Prem and his partners. The company has shown tremendous growth over the years and has managed to set its foot in Malaysia, South Africa, Canada, USA, Ghana, and Nigeria. Recently, it has collaborated with several industry experts and started cannabis/hemp farming in the USA and Canada and has presented a PLC Controlled growing atmosphere for cannabis farming to the client."By using our organic agriculture inputs, the cannabinoid contents increased to significant level and the project was a success. Based on this, we are now in talks of signing an agreement for a commercial PLC based farming system management,"informs Dr. S. Prem.

With the landscape of agriculture consultancy gaining momentum in the country, Clean Green Biosystems now looks to offer automated agriculture /horticulture systems which are PLC based and plan to supply turnkey systems for the farming. "In this world of rapid technological advancements, we are incorporating technology in our operations for value addition of the produce which will in turn, change the face of agriculture,"he concludes.
