In this episode, the 2Gs, our Gourmands and Geeks Sadaf and Archit are trying to understand the business of agriculture with Mark Kahn, co-founder of Omnivore, an agritech venture capital firm, based in India. Together, they discuss:
- What inspired Omnivore?
- How is tech solving the issues faced by stakeholders in the agriculture space
- What will help farmers better; subsidies or direct cash transfer?
- What has been the impact of Agritech in India so far?
- What is universal farmer income?
So, sit back and relax, get some farm-fresh carrots to munch on and explore Agritech with our 2Gs.
