Agrocorp Aeroponics Private Limited

Agrocorp Aeroponics Private Limited. We are right on Purna Das Road. It’s on the ground floor of the building, which makes it easier for moving things in and out every day. Asok Kr Chatterjee’s name is the one on the floor here. We do aeroponics, which is basically growing plants in the air with mist. It sounds way more complicated than it actually is once you get the hang of it. Most of our time is spent checking on the pipes and the water tanks. It’s different from the usual way of farming in the ground. Being in the city means we don’t have much space at 37/1, so we go upwards with our racks. It’s a bit cramped inside with all the lights and wires, but it works for what we need. We’re usually there early in the morning to make sure the sensors are behaving correctly. It’s a bit of a mix between a workshop and a greenhouse. People walk by on the street and sometimes peek in to see what’s going on with all the plants inside. We just focus on keeping the roots healthy and the water flowing. It’s a lot of routine work, checking the pH and making sure the misting stays on schedule. We don’t have a big team, just a few of us making sure everything stays green. It’s a bit noisy with the pumps sometimes but we’ve gotten used to it. Just trying to grow things where you wouldn’t expect them.
