WAVE Group Advocates Modern Farming and Processing to Boost Potato Farmers' Income
Manpreet Singh Chadha, Vice-Chairman of WAVE Group, highlighted at the India Today Group's Kisan Tak Bharat Agriculture Conference that potato farmers can increase income by adopting modern farming techniques and collaborating with food processing companies. The group has introduced European farming practices, provided seeds and inputs, and developed processing products like potato flakes and frozen French fries for export. Their contract farming model assures fixed prices and buys various potato sizes, helping farmers improve yields, reduce labor dependence, and secure better returns without selling land.
