KEL holds a large and prime agricultural land at village Khurpia in District Udham Singh Nagar in Uttarakhand. The company has moved from traditional crops like Wheat, Paddy, Toria and Sugarcane to high value crops like Strawberry, Broccoli, Capsicum, Lettuce & flowers like Gladioli. Gerbera, Calla Lily, Roses etc. The environment consciousness has inspired us to bring considerable area under Organic farming and to establish nurseries of Agro-forestry plants i.e. Poplar and Eucalyptus etc. & Green house cultivation in 8000 Sq. meters. Seed Multiplication of Sugarcane seed through Tissue Culture and Hybrid seed production and seed processing plant are integral parts of our farm for increasing profitability.

At KEL we endeavor to create better quality crops through our Research and Development initiatives. R & D laboratories for Tissue Culture, Bio-control and Bio-fertilizers were established in 1995 at our Khurpia farm in 20000 Sq. meter area.

Sustained efforts at KEL, besides direct profit is for making qualitative and quantitative improvements in the crop patterns of our growers and therefore, their profitability and prosperity along with growth of KEL.

 
  Area using Biotechnological Approaches
 

Micro propagation of new promising Sugarcane varieties

Micro propagation of new high sugar and high yielding sugarcane varieties was started in our state of the art Tissue Culture laboratory at KEL in year 1995. The laboratory with production capability of 2 lac plants per annum is involved in the production of Tissue Culture plants. These plants are sold at subsidized rates to the local sugarcane farmers.

Micro propagation of Flowers and fruits plant species:

  • Gerbera

  • Chrysanthemum

  • Lilium

  • Fuchsia

  • Gladiolus

  • Calla Lily

  • Strawberry

  • Raspberry

  • Stevia

  • Banana

Propagation by IN-VIVO proliferation Technique (IVP)

KEL has developed a cost effective technique for rapid multiplication of Sugarcane Tissue Culture plants. In this technique, Tissue Culture plants are transplanted & multiplied in open IVP beds. As a result, plants through IVP can be produced at 25% of the cost of production in the Tissue Culture laboratory.

Insect Biological Control Laboratory (Integrated Pest Management)

In view of our concern towards environment, the use of chemical Insecticides, Fungicides and fertilizers needs to be minimized and as an alternate develop Bio-control and Bio-fertilizer facilities for:

  • Mass Multiplication of Trichogramma chilonis for control of Sugarcane and vegetable borers

  • Mass multiplication of Trichogramma japonicum for control of Sugarcane and paddy borers

  • Mass production of Pseudomonas, Azatobacter and PSB etc as bio-fertilizers

  • Mass multiplication of Corsyara cephailonica as Lab Host

Bio-control laboratory at KEL produce and provide Tricho-Cards of Trichogramma clonis & Trichogramma japonicum for our farmers on a 50% subsidized cost for the control of attack of borers of sugarcane, paddy & vegetable crops.
