Nadir Godrej Center for Animal R&D

Godrej Agrovet is a diversified, agri-business company, dedicated to improving the productivity of Indian farmers by innovating products and services that sustainably increase crop and livestock yields. Innovation is a key driver of our strategy. We are constantly experimenting and looking for technology-based solutions to improve farm productivity and thereby, the profitability of farmers.

Our Animal Feed business is one of the largest organised players in the Compound Feed market in India, with over a million tonnes in annual sales. We have a diverse portfolio that includes products in Cattle, Poultry, Aqua and Specialty Feed. Over the last few years, we have been investing significantly in cutting-edge Research & Development to support our innovation pipeline for this business.

In 2015, we set up the Nadir Godrej Centre for Animal Research and Development in Nashik, Maharashtra. This is one of the first private sector investments in improving the efficiency of animal agriculture in India. Our focus will be to leverage its one-of-its-kind animal husbandry research capabilities to develop cost effective solutions to improve animal productivity.
