E-commerce is pushing boundaries and has fast pervaded even the core sectors like agriculture. Growing at a CAGR of 18% in the coming five years, the global agritech market would be worth $41,172.5 million by 2027. The agriculture sector has long been driven by the ages-old business model where farmers had hardly any say in the way their yield would turn out or the way the market demands will change. To offer inclusive and sustainable growth, the agriculture sector needs to be driven and powered by cutting edge solutions.
