IIT Graduate Couple Transitions from Corporate Careers to Organic Farming in Delhi-NCR
Rakesh Anand, an IIT Bombay graduate, and his wife Roopika Anand, a former Emirates banker, transitioned from corporate careers to organic farming after nearly two decades of planning. Returning to India in 2001 to care for family, they eventually leased land in Bulandshahr, Uttar Pradesh, in 2018. Without prior agricultural experience, they learned from local farmers and developed a 15-acre organic farm supplying fresh produce across Delhi-NCR. Their journey reflects a shift from corporate roles to sustainable agriculture.
