Pune Farmers Fuel Maharashtra’s Organic Boom! Maharashtra’s organic movement is thriving, with Pune leading the way as a hub for eco-friendly farming start-ups and chemical-free options. Currently contributing over 6,800 hectares of organic farmland, Pune is at the heart of a 30-40% surge in demand for organic produce, driven by health-conscious consumers, particularly in the 35-45 age group, who are now more willing to pay a premium for organic products. This shift, along with the growing preference for premium organic ingredients in the HoReCa industry, has helped Maharashtra rank among India’s top three states for sustainable farming, with ambitions to expand to 8,000 hectares in the near future. 🌱 How do you see organic farming shaping the future of sustainable living in India?
