vision Mission
VISION: To be a leading agtech company in Bangladesh. Smallholder farming households face a triple burden –
-
Produce more food with fewer resources
-
Decrease crop productivity and increase harvest loss, and
-
Low food prices due to poor networking and connection
Planten is able to play a critical role in devising solutions to tackle these challenges.
MISSION: We bring agriculture innovation to farmers’ doorstep.
