The company operates in 17 states and markets approximately 350 varieties of seed products to more than 5.5 million farmers across India. [2]
The seeds business of the NSL Group was founded by Sri Mandava Venkatramaiah in 1973, who was a farmer in the Nuziveedu town of Andhra Pradesh with a postgraduate degree in agricultural sciences. He had an interest in cotton seed technology and understood the value in hybrid cotton seeds, which he wanted to make available to cotton cultivators. [3]
