About Sahaja Organics
Sahaja Samrudha Organic Producer Co. Ltd. (Sahaja Organics) is Karnataka's first Farmer Producer Company (FPC) owned by certified organic farmers. Established in 2010, the company was founded with a vision to empower organic farmers by creating a direct connection between producers and consumers while promoting sustainable agriculture and preserving India's rich agricultural heritage.
Today, Sahaja Organics is one of Karnataka's largest wholesalers of certified organic produce, representing 1,200+ IMO-certified organic farmers. Built on the principles of fairness, transparency, and environmental responsibility, the organization ensures farmers receive premium prices for their produce while consumers enjoy authentic, traceable, and certified organic food.
The journey of Sahaja Organics began through Sahaja Samrudha, an association of organic farmers dedicated to conserving biodiversity, protecting indigenous seeds, and encouraging sustainable farming practices. Recognizing the challenges faced by small and marginal farmers in marketing their organic produce, the association established the Farmer Producer Company to create better market access and long-term livelihoods.
Sahaja Organics offers a wide range of certified organic products, including rice, millets, pulses, cold-pressed oils, jaggery and natural sweeteners, spices, fruits, vegetables, and value-added products handcrafted by women entrepreneurs from Sahaja-certified farmer groups. Every product is carefully sourced from certified farms and monitored under internationally recognized organic certification standards by IMO Control, ensuring quality, authenticity, and trust.
The company's farmer-to-consumer model has earned national recognition. Our Honorable Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi appreciated Sahaja Organics during his Mann Ki Baat address on 24 June 2018 for its innovative approach to connecting farmers directly with consumers. Sahaja Organics has also been honored with the Jaivik India Award (First Prize) for 2021–22 and 2024–25, recognizing its outstanding contribution to India's organic farming movement. In addition, founder member and Director Shri N. R. Shetty was recognized by TV9 with the Nava Nakshatra Award for his significant contribution to agriculture.
Beyond marketing organic produce, Sahaja Organics is committed to sharing its success with its farmer members. Since its inception, the company has consistently supported its shareholders by returning profits, strengthening rural livelihoods, and encouraging more farmers to adopt certified organic farming practices.
At Sahaja Organics, every harvest represents a commitment to healthier food, healthier farmers, and a healthier planet. By bringing certified organic products directly from farmers to consumers, the organization continues to build a sustainable food system based on trust, quality, and care for nature.
