Success Story: This woman from Delhi is empowering farmers through organic farming
Success Story: Through her ambitious path, Shreya Agarwal, the Managing Director of Dr. Ovanics (100% Organic Farm), has revolutionized health and sustainability. Satya Pharmaceuticals, located in Sonipat, Haryana, and renowned for its clean and Ayurvedic medications, served as her inspiration. Shreya and her father were motivated by the conviction that a balanced and healthy existence starts with pure and natural resources after seeing the worldwide health catastrophe during the COVID-19 epidemic in 2020.
From the Origins of Pharmaceuticals to the Organic Revolution
Few names have as much resonance in the fields of health and sustainability as Shreya Agarwal’s. During the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, her father, Sanjay Agarwal, was determined to realize her dream. He bought an acre of property in Murthal, Haryana, and started growing medicinal, ornamental, and herbal plants organically. They started the process of transforming agricultural methods with their expertise and intense desire to learn.
For Shreya and her father, Sanjay Agarwal, the worldwide health catastrophe during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 marked a sea change. During the outbreak, Agarwal steadfastly purchased a one-acre site in Murthal, Haryana. Armed with an insatiable curiosity and a strong ambition to elevate conventional farming to a remarkable level, they started out to develop medicinal, ornamental, and herbal plants.
Establishing Foundations via Education
In an attempt to improve their methods, Shreya sought advice from the renowned Pusa Institute of Technology in Delhi, where she became an expert in contemporary agricultural solutions, including drip irrigation and organic farming. Only two committed farmers were needed to effectively produce organic fruits, vegetables, and Ayurvedic herbs on their farm by the end of 2021.
Under the name Dr. Ovanics, their organic farm was formally formed by 2022. What started out as a modest farm has grown into a successful business that produces organic vegetables, decorative plants, and medicinal herbs—many of which are essential components of Satya Pharmaceuticals’ Ayurvedic medications. Shreya has a clear objective: to combine sustainable farming methods with state-of-the-art agricultural technology while upholding unwavering standards of quality.
Encouraging Sustainability and Empowering Farmers
In addition to their agricultural endeavors, Shreya and her group are dedicated to uplifting farmers in India. They empower local farmers and encourage self-reliance by providing free training classes twice a month on contemporary agricultural methods and the use of technology. Many people have already been motivated to adopt sustainable behaviors by this effort.
Through Dr. Ovanics, Shreya also hopes to produce neem extracts, cow dung manure, vermicompost, and other organic supplements. The goal of these goods is to promote sustainable agriculture.
An Ayurvedic Family Tradition
Shreya’s love of Ayurveda stems from her family’s long history. The spirit of natural healing was embodied by her grandmother, Dr. Satyavati Gupta, an Ayurvedic physician who grew a variety of herbal plants on their balcony. The principles of honesty and purity that Shreya currently adheres to were imparted by her father, who established Satya Pharmaceuticals thirty years ago. Seven years after joining Satya Pharmaceuticals, Shreya Agarwal now sees and aspires to launch new Ayurvedic health, personal care, and cosmetic products that are completely devoid of preservatives.
A Prospective Perspective
Shreya has limitless goals for Dr. Ovanics. She intends to expand their product line in the next two years to include vermicompost, plants, crop supplements, and organic home grow kits for both local and foreign markets. In order to build a healthier, greener future, she also hopes to work with other agribusiness owners who share her values.
The Message from Shreya
Shreya has the belief that “having thorough knowledge in your area of interest is the key to opening the doors of your goals, especially in the field of agriculture,” with a sense of optimism and persistence. Her experience serves as an example of how perseverance, creativity, and a devotion to sustainability can result in revolutionary success.
The story of Shreya Agarwal demonstrates how hope can blossom into a legacy that has an impact on people’s lives everywhere when it is nourished with passion and vision. A new generation of people interested in holistic health and sustainable farming is still motivated by her work.
