DiOM aims to democratise the agri-business in India through its collaborative farmland ownership model offering sustained growth.
We take inspiration from time-tested agri-businesses around the world and wish to bring their inherent advantages to fuel profitability for our partners, while also putting the country at the agricultural centre stage.
DiOM focuses on sandalwood & avocado plantations as key drivers for growth. Both crops hold significant economic and ecological value, with rising global demand and substantial potential for profitability. Integrated plantation of sandalwood (primary crop) and avocado (host crop) is an extremely profitable agroforestry system, combining the short-term benefits of avocado yields with the long term value of sandalwood.
Integrating sandalwood and avocado plantations offers a sustainable and profitable farming model with numerous benefits.
The combined planting promotes biodiversity, improves soil structure, and supports nutrient cycling, resulting in a healthier ecosystem.
Farmers benefit from multiple revenue streams - short-term from avocados and long-term from sandalwood. This also helps in reducing financial risk and enhancing overall profitability.
The integration maximises land productivity, encourages water conservation, and supports sustainable farming practices.
Both tree types contribute to carbon sequestration and create favourable microclimates, helping mitigate climate change and supporting a balanced ecosystem.
Integrated plantations create job opportunities, encourage the adoption of innovative farming techniques, and promote sustainable economic growth within the community.
