Edii Tiruchirappalli Agribusinessincubation Forum

We are based out of the Navalurkuttapattu area, right there with the Anbil Dharmalingam Agricultural College in Tiruchirappalli. It’s a bit of a mouthful to say the whole name, but we’re mostly known as the agribusiness incubation forum here. We spend our days working with people who have new ideas for farming and food businesses. Since we’re located at the research institute, there is always something going on with new crops or different ways of doing things. It’s not your typical office job because we’re often out talking to folks who are just starting their own ventures. We provide a space for them to figure things out without having to worry about all the usual hurdles right away. The college campus is quite large, so there is plenty of room for all the different projects we have going on. Sometimes it gets a little disorganized when we have several groups working at once, but we figure it out as we go. We don't have a lot of polished brochures or a big marketing team. It’s just a group of us who know a bit about the industry trying to help others get their feet on the ground. Being in Trichy means we are close to a lot of farming communities, which makes sense for what we do. We just keep our heads down and focus on the practical side of agribusiness every single day.
