Kushal Bhagia, Founder of All In Capital says, “India is largely an agri-dominated economy. However, more than 95% of farmers in the country fall under the middle-income category and do not have the resources to buy new tractors, thus limiting their production capacity. Tractor Factory is solving this major problem and addressing the vital needs of small farmers nationwide.”
