Demographies Served

Programs

  • Cattle Feed

    IFFCO Kisan Suvidha Limited, through its Cattle Feed program, aims to enhance cattle health and milk production. Its Balanced Cattle Feed is rich in proteins, minerals, and vitamins, promoting the well-being and productivity of cattle. Crafted from top-quality grains, brans, molasses, minerals, and vitamins, this feed is not only palatable but also contributes to overall animal health. Regular consumption results in denser and higher-quality milk, yielding more butter and fat content. It adheres to National Dairy Development Board guidelines, boosting immunity, enhancing digestion, and preventing illnesses and infertility. Additionally, it supports calf growth, ensuring they mature and reproduce on schedule while reducing the risk of diseases like milk fever and prolapse. Continued use of this balanced feed prolongs the period during which cows and buffaloes can produce milk.

  • Agro ICT Services

    FFCO Kisan Suvidha Limited extends its Agro ICT Services, including the innovative Green Sim programme.

Farmers can also seek expert guidance on various agricultural topics through this service. Additionally, the Samadhan service provides agro advisory services for those without Green SIM cards, offering premium features for improved crop yields. These services include a dedicated helpline for query resolution and a call-back facility, enhancing the farming community's access to valuable agricultural information.
