Basic Information
Farm theory buys the “ugly” yet fresh and fit-for-consumption vegetables from Indian farmers and then sells and delivers the produce directly to restaurants in India. They bridge the gap between buyers and sellers of ugly produce from farms to restaurants, thereby increasing farmer incomes and reducing food waste. Restaurants can buy farm fresh ugly produce at a 30% discount for making sauces and purees. The startup gives them the option to buy regular shaped and sized fresh produce for salad dressing and presentation. Farm Theory will be leveraging the use of Artificial Intelligence to regularise the grading procedure and quality checks of the agri-produce. This technology scans for shape, size, faults, and quality. Morover, they have opened three retail stores in Bangalore and are launching campaigns to educate the public about the health and environmental benefits of ugly produce. A mobile app is under development as well.
