aayush food and herbs ltd share price Management discussions


To avoid duplication between the Board Report and the Management Discussion and Analysis, we present below a composite summary of performance of the various businesses and functions of the Company.

Present Status

The Company is providing consultancy in the Horticultural and Agricultural products. The company is also trading in Horticultural and Agricultural products.

Economy and Markets

Indias agriculture sector is likely to grow at 2.1 per cent in 2021-22, followed by Industry (4.4 per cent) and services (8.3 per cent), according to the Economic Survey 2022-23.

Credit from institutional sources will complement all such government initiatives like Soil Health Card, Input Management, Per Drop More Crop in Pradhan Mantri Krishi Sinchai Yojana (PMKSY), PMFBY, e-Nam, etc, the survey said.

Indian farmers are adapting to farm mechanisation at a faster rate in comparison to recent past. The Economic Survey further added sale of tractors to a great extent reflects the level of mechanisation.

According to the World Bank estimates, half of the Indian population would be urban by the year 2050. It is estimated that percentage of agricultural workers in total work force would drop to 25.7 per cent by 2050 from 58.2 per cent in 2001. Thus, there is a need to enhance the level of farm mechanisation in the country.

India is expected to be self-sufficient in pulses in the coming few years due to concerted efforts of scientists to get early-maturing varieties of pulses and the increase in minimum support price.

Industry Structure and Development

Opportunity and Threats

AGRICULTURE

As you all know Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi had explicitly stated in his election campaign that farmers would be the priority and the government would ensure they got 50% returns over their total costs. Keeping this in mind your company has started implementing measures to provide all round support to ensure a minimum return and also increase their production and earning multi-fold.

The buzz word in todays agricultural sector is "Farmers Producer Company". Producer companies can help smallholder farmers participate in emerging high-value markets, such as the export market and the unfolding modern retail sector in India. As elsewhere in the developing world, in India, small farmers livelihoods are being threatened due to the liberalization and privatization of Indian agriculture and the increasing interest of private capital in the agribusiness sector. The withdrawal of the state from productive and economic functions, and changes in the organization of marketing channels, present new challenges for small-scale farmers. In this environment of greater instability and competition, organization and collective action can help to enhance farmers competitiveness and increase their advantage in emerging market opportunities. We build on the ideas of value-chain governance and collective-action literature and introduce the functions and organizational structure of producer companies in India within this context.

Thus by collecting around 300 small farmers on a single corporate platform your company has formed a "Farmers Producer Company". This model will ensure at least a minimum profit to the farmers and also in the process your company will also earn handsomely

BIOTECHNOLOGY

Biotechnology is one of the "hot spots" in research and development in this century. Great chances and opportunities lie ahead, but also tremendous threats. While technology and knowledge is easily available all over the world, it can be quite difficult to access markets and to commercialize biotechnological products.

Biotechnology, regardless of red, green or white biotechnology, promises high profits. However, the field is also complex, fast moving and costly. Especially in the field of medical applications there are many risks associated with biotechnology. One example is a drug developed against multiple sclerosis, which had possible profits of 3$ billion.

After two patients developing a rare brain disease in clinical trials the profits vaporized and the stock market were in an uproar. Nevertheless does the United Nations Development Program see "biotechnology innovation and globalisation as a means of helping the poor of the world live fuller, richer and more secure lives". Only through commercialisation this promise will come true. Commercialisation is converting or moving technology into a profit making position

In our opinion the most important point is to bridge the gap between technology and markets. The matching of technological challenge and market challenge is difficult and many tools have been developed to address this problem.

Customer Development

As you all know Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi had explicitly stated in his election campaign that farmers would be the priority and the government would ensure they got 50% returns over their total costs. Keeping this in mind your company has started implementing measures to provide all round support to ensure a minimum return and also increase their production and earning multi-fold.

Research & Development

Indias agricultural research system has contributed in a large way to increasing agriculture production and productivity. Development of high yielding and disease resistant varieties has been its major hall mark. The country has one of the largest Public Agricultural Research Establishments in the world. With Indian Council of Agricultural Research (ICAR) at the top, we have 30 State Agriculture Universities, 46 Institutes including 4 Deemed Universities, 4 National Bureau, 9 Project Directorates, 31 National Research Centres, 158 Regional Stations and 80 All India Coordinated Research Projects. However, despite having such a huge manpower and infrastructure, the predominant critique has been that it is very weak in transfer of technology and does not benefit small farmers.

The company wish to set up an in-house Plant Tissue Culture Laboratory for doing research in the field of plant tissue culture and also to take such researches through steps to commercial levels.

Our Research Team wish to conduct Basic Research in Premier Institute in the country in the following prospective fields: Agriculture

• Crop Biotechnology

• Bio Fertilizers

• Bio Pesticides and Crop Management

• Plant Biotechnology

Plant Tissue Culture Micopropogation

• Bio prospecting and Molecular taxonomy

OUTLOOK

The promise of doubling farmers income by 2022 dangled heavily as reports of severe agrarian distress started pouring in from the country. Farmers dumping their produces for lack of fair price made headlines throughout 2018 and 2019. The report pointed out that agriculture and rural sector is currently in a deep crisis because during 2004-14 the countrys agriculture sector witnessed its highest ever growth "recovery phase". Despite the highest ever food grain production the year 2016-17 (275 million tonnes) and 274.55 million tonnes in 2017-18, the rural economy has completely collapsed.

As you all know Honourable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi had explicitly stated in his election campaign that farmers would be the priority and the government would ensure they got 50% returns over their total costs. Keeping this in mind your company has started implementing measures to provide all round support to ensure a minimum return and also increase their production and earning multi-fold.

Total Remuneration paid to Statutory Auditors: Rs.25,0007- Risks and concerns

There is a rich public debate about how the potential risks associated with biotechnology methods and bio industry products should be assessed and about whether and how bioethics should influence public policy. A general structure for guiding public policy discourse is emerging but is not fully developed. Groups perceive risks differently depending on their culture, scientific background, perception of government, and other factors. Expert opinion supports a range of positions. Deeply and honestly held but often conflicting beliefs and values about nature, animals, and the community good animate the debate. The result is that biotechnology issues are often highly contentious and debated on both scientific and ethical grounds. Two contemporary examples are:

? Do human social benefits such as living a longer and leading more productive life due to biotechnology outweigh the harm that an animal or groups of animals must experience to produce those benefits.

? Should an insurance company require information about an individuals genetic inheritance as a condition of eligibility for health insurance?

Biotechnologys risks are sometimes purely conjectural. Without research and clinical trials, risks cannot be fully assessed. Yet conjectural and ethical issues are important because biotechnology affects not only human practices and economic sectors, but also medical practices and the relationship between humanity, animals and the environment.

In Paul Thompsons view, [Biotechnology] is not simply another type of mechanical or chemical creation aimed at making the world better for us. In this instance, we are not simply reshaping matter, but are harnessing life. By manipulating life and natural evolution, we are taking the process that shaped our existence and that of every other living organism on the planet and restructuring it for our own benefit.
