Upaj

Sourabh Bagla, Senior Vice President

Upaj is advancing sustainable agriculture through phygital (physical plus digital) services across the Agri-Value chain, providing stakeholders with seamless access to data and services.

Central to this ecosystem is Insoil, a compact, dual photospectrometry-powered soil testing machine that restores soil health, enhances productivity, and reduces greenhouse gas emissions. Insoil delivers precise AI-powered nutrient recommendations in under 20 minutes. By optimising fertiliser use, it helps farmers increase yields, lower costs, and preserve their soil quality.

Additionally, through the Mitti Didi (Soil Sister) initiative, Upaj empowers rural women by training them as entrepreneurs to run soil labs, promoting financial independence and gender equality in agriculture.

“We applied for the RISE Accelerator to amplify Insoil’s global mission—restoring
soil health and transforming agriculture. Expanding our impact together with CSIRO
and AIM, across borders, will allow us to empower farmers worldwide with cutting-edge
solutions, driving sustainable practices that safeguard our planet’s future and ensure
food security for generations to come.”
