Contractual Farming
At Shree Devgiri, we welcome farmers, companies, FPOs, NGOs, and agricultural entrepreneurs to collaborate with us under our Contractual Organic Farming Model. This initiative is designed to promote sustainable, chemical-free agriculture while ensuring assured returns and expert support.

How It Works
Under the contract farming model, farmers, landowners, and partner institutions can enter into agreements where land is either leased or used collaboratively for organic cultivation. All farming must follow a predefined organic model, with practices focused on chemical-free, sustainable methods. The harvested produce is tested in certified labs and must meet established quality and certification standards. If the output qualifies, it will be purchased at the rate agreed upon in the contract. A formal agreement is signed in advance, clearly stating the terms, pricing, quality benchmarks, and timelines. Terms and conditions apply.
Types of Contract Farming Models
(As defined by the FAO – Food and Agriculture Organization)
-
Informal Model
Seasonal, short-term contracts for fresh produce with limited processing. Higher risk but simple structure.
-
Intermediary Model
Involves agents or FPOs who act as a bridge between farmers and the buyer. Offers wider reach but reduced control.
-
Multipartite Model
Involves government, private firms, and financial institutions. Best for large-scale programs but more complex.
-
Centralized Model
One main processor or buyer contracts with several farmers. Ideal for crops needing processing (e.g., sugarcane).
-
Nucleus Estate Model
The buyer owns a core farm and also contracts with nearby smallholder farms. Common for perennial or export crops.
