What Netafim Irrigation India Pvt. Ltd does

Netafim Irrigation India Pvt. Ltd. is a wholly owned Indian subsidiary of Israel-based Netafim, itself part of Mexico-headquartered Orbia Group. Founded in 1997 and headquartered in Vadodara, Gujarat, the company designs, manufactures, and distributes precision irrigation systems — primarily drip and sprinkler networks, along with filters, valves, PE piping, and the proprietary TOOFAN pressure-compensating dripline — for Indian agriculture. It serves smallholder and commercial farmers, government agricultural bodies, dealers and distributors, and greenhouse operators across India, with operations touching 23 lakh acres (approximately 2.3 million acres) of farmland and over 10.7 lakh farmer households, supported by 1,500+ professionals and a 2,500+ associate distribution network.

The product portfolio is anchored by drip irrigation systems with pressure-compensating emitters that deliver uniform water distribution across uneven terrain, supplemented by sprinkler systems (including the Pulsar + StripNet X combination) and subsurface drip irrigation for high-efficiency applications. Above this hardware layer sits GrowSphere™, a digital farming platform comprising three modules: Crop Advisor (agronomic decision-support), Controllers (automated scheduling and remote valve control), and Monitoring (IoT sensor-based field telemetry). Beyond equipment, Netafim India provides end-to-end project services covering design, EPC execution, and O&M for open-field and greenhouse projects, backed by in-house agronomists and is ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001 certified.

Revenue is generated predominantly through hardware sales of irrigation kits and components (drip kits priced at Rs. 35,000–60,000 per acre depending on system complexity), complemented by professional services for large-scale greenhouse and community irrigation projects, and recurring revenue from digital farming subscriptions. Distribution combines a 2,500+ dealer and associate network, 12 regional sales offices covering all major Indian states, direct farmer sales (including under PMKSY "Per Drop More Crop" subsidy schemes), institutional sales to government programs (APMIP, GGRC, TANHODA), and direct-to-consumer e-commerce via Amazon India. The company operates 3 domestic manufacturing plants; global parent Netafim operates 19 manufacturing plants across 110 countries.
