BHARATI — Bharat's Hub for Agritech, Resilience, Advancement, and Incubation — is APEDA’s bold and transformative initiative to redefine India’s agricultural and processed food export landscape. At APEDA, we believe that innovation, resilience, and collaboration are the cornerstones of a thriving agri-food ecosystem. Through BHARATI, we aim to empower Farmer Producer Companies (FPCs), startups, exporters, and individuals engaged in agri-food research by promoting best practices, leveraging cutting-edge technologies, and harnessing innovation to unlock global market opportunities and transform the sector.
Beyond enabling these stakeholders, BHARATI seeks to cultivate a dynamic ecosystem aligned with India’s export ambitions. This includes fostering new thinking and approaches to exports, deploying advanced technologies and solutions to address export challenges, and leveraging actionable market intelligence. By facilitating access to critical insights, integrating into global value chains, forging strategic partnerships, and nurturing ecosystem confidence, BHARATI contributes meaningfully to the vision of Atma Nirbhar Bharat and the realization of Viksit Bharat—unlocking new avenues for growth, innovation, and global leadership.
By fostering synergies between producers, technology innovators, and solution providers, BHARATI aims to build a vibrant ecosystem for global competitiveness.
Let us unite in this transformative journey to position India as a global leader in the agri-food sector—driving sustainable growth and innovation for a prosperous future.
