Commenting on results, Vimal Kumar, Managing Director, Best Agrolife Limited, said, “Despite the challenging external environment, we have maintained a strong growth trajectory, with revenue from operations surging by 32 per cent sequentially to reach Rs 811 crores. This remarkable growth can be attributed to the success of our flagship products, including Ronfen, Tricolor, CTPR, Propique, Amito, and others. Notably, the second quarter is a pivotal season for Ronfen, and robust interest from farmers is contributing significantly to our growth. Our profit margins remain resilient, driven by an improved product mix. The consistent demand for our products has shielded us from pricing pressures that generic agrochemicals are grappling with.

 He also added that I am also pleased at the ground-breaking achievement by our subsidiary, Seedlings India, which has been granted a 20-year patent for a revolutionary Synergistic Pesticidal Composition. This composition incorporates two insecticides and a fungicide, offering innovative solutions to the challenges faced in rice cultivation. We have additionally secured a vital 20-year patent for a revolutionary herbicidal composition that promises to enhance rice crop yields. This one-shot herbicide, set to launch in the next Kharif season under the brand name ‘Orisulam’, will further bolster our herbicide portfolio. During this quarter, we introduced our patented product, Tricolor, which has garnered a very encouraging response from the farming community.
