(By Mahesh Langa) Yoav Lev was a 22-year-old backpacker when he first found India in 1987.
A graduate from a great agricultural boarding school in Israel, this individual came searching for inner peacefulness from his ‘spiritual guru’, the past due H. W. L. Poonja of Lucknow, better known as Papaji. “The quest was going to find my true goal and the case self, he says. This individual eventually stayed on in India, accepting a new term, Bharat Mitra, and is currently the Founder and President of Organic India, one of India’s leading organic foods corporations. It finished 2012 with Rs 60 crore revenues and desires to15325 reach Rs 90 crore this year, with about half of its revenue in India. Five years ago, 75 % of our income came from exports and the relax from the home market.
Right now both markets have similar share: Raj Seelam Photography: A Prabhakar Rao Organic and natural foods are those made from gardening products cultivated without the utilization of pesticides or chemical fertilisers. It was by Papaji that Lev learned the treatment power of tulsi (basil plant). By 1997, he had begun cultivating 3 types of tulsi organically in Azamgarh in eastern Uttar Pradesh. In 2006 he launched Organic and natural India with tulsi tea as its flagship product. Today, the company makes 18 several flavours of tulsi tea and thirty-three different natural formulations or supplements, which can be said to have medicinal benefit.

This individual prefers to not reveal the name of the well known Indian company he can negotiating with. Lev is not alone. A clutch of entrepreneurs in India is definitely betting big on the household organic food market. Consider Raj Seelam, a great Indian Commence of Managing Ahmedabad alumnus.
When Lev first used tulsi fostering, some 1, 200 kilometers down south in Hyderabad, Seelam was still selling & nitrogen-laden fertilisers. From 1988 to 2000, this individual worked in the farm advices division of Electronic. I. Deb Parry, a Murugappa Group company, among the largest professional groups in India. “It gave me the opportunity to interact strongly with farmers and see the havoc that indiscriminate use of pesticides can easily create, he says.
