Challenges
At Mitsumi, we help our customers grow a better tomorrow.
The Critical Challenges
During our financial year2022, the Indian population hit 1.35 billion and is growing every day. A rising population means we need to produce more food by 2030.
Accelerating agricultural innovation is essential to sustainably meeting the nutrition and energy needs of a growing population and rapidly changing economies. So too is utilising technology that has vastly improved agricultural productivity in recent decades that has helped feed more than one billion population, such as crop protection products.
Mitsumi is well-placed to deliver the agricultural innovation essential to enabling our industry to meet some of the India ‘s most complex challenges. Our solutions improve agricultural sustainability by allowing farmers to produce more from existing farmland.
The challenge ahead of us is to strengthen the sustainability of agriculture without jeopardizing the supply of food, fibre and fuel.
Innovating New Ideas for Crops Solutions
Progress in a Year of Disruptions
Our country was impacted by significant global supply chain disruptions throughout 2020-21 2021-22 due to severe weather events and coronavirus pandemic.
These disruptions highlight the importance of what we do: help farmers grow the crops that feed and clothe us and, increasingly, provide us with new sources of renewable energy. The disruptions also reminded us of the importance of strengthening food and fuel security to protect people’s livelihoods and wellbeing.
We made tangible progress towards achieving our sustainability targets. We have reduced our Factory pollution since FY20 as part of our efforts to reduce the pollution.
We also progressed our climate disclosures in line with the Climate-related Financial Disclosures. Since FY20 we have lowered our environmental impact through hazardous waste . And the company continued to focus on ensuring our employees feel empowered and go home safely.
Beyond our operational improvements, we have made great progress in delivering innovative solutions to farmers to improve agricultural sustainability. In 2022, and after years of development work, we launched important products specially formulated to manage spray , improve product efficacy and reduce the impact to off-target areas.
Creating a better tomorrow for millions of people!
Meeting the Future Needs
We have come a long way in harnessing the power of plant science to help farmers withstand the pressures of weeds, pests and diseases.
Crop protection products, for example, safeguard crops from the moment they are sown until they are harvested. These proven tools help farmers protect their crop yields from more than 40,000 species of weed and plant-eating insects. Protecting crops from these threats is important to the future of agricultural sustainability and preventing unnecessary food loss.
In 2022 and beyond, Mitsumi Agri Science Pvt Ltd will build on this legacy of innovation to pioneer new technology and develop new markets to accelerate the sustainable production of food, fibre and fuel.
Our 2022 sustainability report outlines our priorities, progress and plans as we continue on this journey.
Underpinning this report and our approach is a belief in technology, innovation and collaboration to advance sustainable agriculture and support farmer livelihoods. We look forward to working with diverse stakeholders to turn these formidable challenges into opportunities for people and the planet.
