This video highlights changes in the agriculture ecosystem in India and the role of AgriTechs under the Financial Inclusion Lab accelerator program in supporting financial inclusion in this sector. The Lab is a part of CIIE.CO’s Bharat Inclusion Initiative and receives support from some of the largest philanthropic organizations across the world. These include the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, J.P. Morgan, Michael & Susan Dell Foundation, MetLife Foundation, and the Omidyar Network.

Agriculture is the life of the Indian economy. However, several structural challenges, such as intermediaries throughout the value chain and limited access to technology, credit, and markets, hinder this sector from reaching its full potential. This video highlights how AgriTech start-ups under the FI lab have been shaping the agriculture sector through technology and innovation.
