Vidarbha (Maharashtra) [India], May 30: In a region once known for drought and farmer distress, Asmita Organic Farms is leading a quiet revolution–rooted in tradition, strengthened by technology, and driven by a profound sense of purpose.
Founded by renowned urban development leader Muzaffar Hussain and his U.S.-educated entrepreneur son Mazhar Syed, Asmita Organic Farms has transformed acres of barren land in Maharashtra’s Vidarbha region into a thriving model of regenerative agriculture using organic farming methods. Today, the farm supports hundreds of farmers, nurtures biodiversity, and produces ethically grown, fully traceable food consumed across urban India.
“For far too long, food in India has come with vague labels and broken promises. At Asmita Organic Farms, we’re building a movement–not just a brand–rooted in radical transparency, soil-to-shelf traceability, and respect for both people and the planet. This isn’t about chasing trends; it’s about reviving Indian farming wisdom, empowering our farmers with modern tools, and giving consumers clean, honest food they can trust. Our vision is to spark a quiet revolution–where every Indian knows their food’s story and chooses nourishment that heals both body and earth,” says Mazhar Syed, Co-Founder of Asmita Organic Farms.
Spread across more than 150 acres, AsmitA Organic Farms is a model of biodiversity and sustainable agriculture. The farm grows black pepper, turmeric, ginger, black ginger, Khapli wheat, cinnamon, nutmeg, and bay leaves. It also cultivates four varieties of cashews, several types of tamarind, and 22 varieties of jackfruit. Trees such as bamboo, mahogany, silver oak, and kokum enrich the landscape. The orchards yield custard apples, sweet limes, oranges, coconuts, and cardamom bananas. A highlight is the mango collection, which features 15 premium varieties, including Gir Talala, Gujarat Kesar, Dussehri, and the rare Malihabad Chausa.
The initiative operates on a farmer-first model, offering buyback guarantees, hands-on training programs, and access to high-quality organic inputs. Special emphasis is placed on gender equity, with dedicated programs to empower and train women farmers throughout the region.
By leveraging precision farming techniques and AgriTech partnerships, Asmita integrates data-driven methods to optimize yields while protecting long-term soil health. The farm’s clean-label product line, available in over 400 retail outlets across Mumbai, Pune, Bangalore, and Indore, features QR-coded biodegradable packaging–allowing customers to trace each item from soil to shelf.
Asmita Organic’s product portfolio–including monk fruit nut butters, brown rice crisps, and cold-pressed oils–is designed with both consumer health and environmental sustainability in mind.
With a growing urban footprint and a deeply rooted rural mission, Asmita Organic Farms is redefining India’s agricultural future–prioritizing transparency over trend, community over commerce, and purpose over profit.
