IT Job छोड़कर बनाया 5 CRORE का MORINGA FARMING BUSINESS | Agritalk by Abhinav Roy

From CEO to “Moringa Man of India” – Basaiah Hiremath’s Journey to Nourish Koppal. After rising through the ranks in the US as a tech CEO, Basaiah Hiremath returned to his roots in Koppal, Karnataka, driven by a striking global report that named his home district among the worst in child nutrition. Fueled by memories and a deeper calling, he shed his corporate life and turned to a humble, nutrient-rich tree for answers the moringa, long used in local kitchens but now rediscovered for its superfood potential. With ₹2 crore of his savings, he launched a fully organic moringa farm in arid Koppal, deploying modern techniques on barren land to cultivate and process moringa powder, which he first distributed free to malnourished children leading to tangible health improvements.

He formalized his venture into NOFH (Nandi Organic Farm House) in 2016, which achieved organic certification—and today earns ₹5 crore annually through domestic distribution and exports to markets in the US, Europe, Russia, and Southeast Asia.

In this podcast episode, “The Moringa Man of India” shares

Why moringa? How he discovered its extraordinary nutritional profile rich in 46 antioxidants, iron, calcium, and vitamins and chose it as a sustainable pathway to address malnutrition.
His vision from realization to action: The moment he decided that solutions must come from the land he grew up on and the steps he took to build a model that feeds communities while empowering them economically.
Organic farming at scale: The challenges and triumphs of cultivating moringa organically in drought-prone soil, establishing processing units, and earning global certifications.
Turning moringa into impact: The process of converting leaves into powder, distributing it for free initially, training local farmers, and transforming moringa into export-ready products that uplift rural livelihoods.

This episode isn’t just a farming storyit’s a narrative of returning home, of innovation grounded in tradition, and of using agriculture to rebuild dignity, health, and economic opportunity.
