AVI Polymers Limited has announced the launch of KrishiBuddy, an AI-powered agritech platform developed by its wholly-owned subsidiary, AVI Eco Spark Private Limited.
This platform aims to revolutionise farming practices in India by providing advanced technological solutions to smallholder farmers.
KrishiBuddy is designed to democratise access to corporate-level agricultural data for smallholder farmers in India.
The platform is equipped with a multimodal, multilingual AI interface, allowing farmers to interact using voice, text, or image uploads in regional languages such as Hindi, English, and Hinglish.
The platform integrates satellite imagery from MODIS Terra and NASA POWER, offering real-time crop health monitoring. This feature enables predictive field vigour analysis without the need for immediate hardware installation.
KrishiBuddy includes a hyper-localised 'Profit Calculator' and 'Market Price' arbitrage dashboard.
These tools help farmers calculate net margins by factoring in real-time mandi rates, transport, and commissions before sowing.
This predictive financial modelling is a significant advantage for farmers seeking to optimise their profits.
The platform utilises community-driven data and iNaturalist integrations to provide early-warning pest alerts. It also offers targeted AI recommendations for pesticide intervention, helping farmers manage pest and disease risks effectively.

The platform supports multiple monetisation channels, including a B2B agri-input marketplace and premium SaaS subscriptions for large-scale FPOs.
As of April 16, 2026, at 10:53 AM, AVI Polymers share price on BSE was trading at ₹12.29 up by 4.95% from the previous closing price.
The launch of KrishiBuddy represents a significant step for AVI Polymers in entering the high-growth agritech sector. By leveraging AI and IoT ecosystems, the platform aims to enhance farming efficiency and profitability for smallholder farmers across India.
