AGRO RANGERS TRUST

Founder: Siddhesh Sakore
Growing up in a farmer’s household, I was deeply affected by the loss of my father during the pandemic. His struggles as a small farmer, revealed by the meager INR 3,000 (about USD 35) left in his bank account, underscored the harsh reality of farming life. My father, who discouraged me from following in his footsteps, believed farming was a life of hardship and urged me to pursue engineering instead. This personal experience, combined with my research into soil degradation and its impact on marginalized farmers, inspired me to focus on regenerative organic agriculture. Through my initiative, AGRO RANGERS, I am empowering youth and farmers in
