The case for change

India’s soil and yields can’t wait.

Farmers are spending more on fertiliser and pesticide every season while their soil carbon keeps falling. Every route to yield now needs more inputs, and crops become less resilient.

NITI Aayog Task Force

Our solution

A carbon-smart regenerative input ecosystem.

One family of all-in-one organic inputs, so farms grow more, higher-quality, residue-free crops from Season 1. It works with the farmer’s own resources instead of replacing them with chemistry.

PILLAR 1

Unlock local fertility

By supercharging cattle dung, compost and other organic resources the farm already has.

PILLAR 2

Grow resilient crops

Through integrated carbon, nutrition and biology for both soil and plant.

PILLAR 3

Restore living soil

By rapidly rebuilding soil organic carbon, soil structure and soil function.

One system · four all-in-one products

From living soil to a protected harvest.

Each product combines NPK, micronutrients, organic carbon, humic and fulvic acids, amino acids, plant hormones and beneficial microbes. Together they cover the full crop cycle.

Supercharging cattle dung

India’s cattle dung can power the world’s fertiliser future.

Carbovardhak doesn’t replace a farmer’s dung or compost. It adds carbon, nutrition and beneficial microbes, so the farm’s own waste becomes a premium all-in-one crop input.

  1. SourceCattle dung, compost, FOM/LFOM, Jivamrit, biochar manure or CBG digestate.
  2. CollectKeep the material in a dung or compost repository at the right moisture.
  3. SuperchargeAdd the prescribed Carbovardhak dose. Microbes break down lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose.
  4. GrowApply the darker, nutrient-dense enriched input in the field, at roughly a third of the usual manure volume.

Technology

Carbon, nutrients and microbes, in one technology.

At the core of every XEN product is the Regenerative Carbon Matrix: an activated long-chain carbon structure that feeds microbes, carries nutrients to the root zone and holds water, so carbon, nutrition and biology work as one system.

Carbon matrixEnrichment processFor CBG plantsGaushalas & FPCsValidation

A biological carbon engine

Three interacting layers unlock, activate and retain.

01 · Unlock biomass

Lignocellulose deconstruction

Specialised microbial consortia break down lignin, cellulose and hemicellulose, releasing carbon and nutrients that would otherwise stay locked in slowly decomposing biomass.

LIGNIN · CELLULOSE · HEMICELLULOSE
02 · Bioactivate

Complete nutrition + microbes

Decomposers, nutrient mobilisers, carbon-fixing bacteria and chemoautotrophs multiply, supported by 109 herbal extracts inspired by Vriksha Ayurveda.

03 · Retain + exchange

Regenerative carbon matrix

A porous carbon matrix holds nutrients and water, gives microbes a habitat and exchanges nutrients with the root zone as the plant needs them.

CARBON-FIXING BACTERIA · CHEMOAUTOTROPHS
Illustration of raw biomass becoming dark, nutrient-dense soil through microbial activity

Three kinds of carbon

Carbon that is designed, not incidental.

Most organic inputs contain carbon. XEN designs it, integrating three carbon pools that each do a different job.

Labile carbon

Feeds microbes now

Readily available energy that starts microbial activity immediately after application.

Humic carbon

Holds water & nutrients

Humic and fulvic substances chelate nutrients and reduce their loss from the root zone.

Stable carbon

Restores soil long-term

Durable carbon that builds soil organic matter, structure and water-holding capacity over seasons.

Inside the matrix

Activated long-chain carbon: the core of soil regeneration.

Carbon stabilisation

Stabilises organic carbon and raises soil organic carbon.

Carbon food matrix

Cellulose, glucose and fructose feed every microbial strain so they thrive together instead of competing.

Humic complex architecture

Humic and fulvic substances chelate nutrients and improve availability.

Microbial habitat

A porous home for a diverse, functional microbial consortium.

Moisture lock

Bacteria bond with soil moisture to anchor carbon in the root zone and improve water holding.

Electron shuttle

Supports microbial respiration and speeds up nutrient transformation.

Nutrient carrier

Chelates and carries macro and micronutrients to the root zone.

Root-zone activation

Better root growth, nutrient uptake and rhizosphere vitality.

Five engineering pillars

Science engineered. Nature enhanced. Value unlocked.

Carbon

Carbon stabilisation & nutrient retention

Activated long-chain carbon, higher carbon density, more soil organic matter, moisture retention.

Biological

Decomposition & nutrient cycling

Cellulose and lignin degraders, nitrogen fixers, phosphate and potassium solubilisers.

Biochemical

Humic, fulvic, amino acids, enzymes

Humic architecture, peptides, organic acids, natural enzymes, chelated nutrients.

Botanical

109 Vriksha Ayurveda extracts, phytonutrients and stress-resilience compounds.

Market

Enrichment process

How Carbovardhak turns waste into wealth.

The same three biological stages, activate, multiply and stabilise, run at farm scale and at industrial scale. Choose a protocol.

DAY 0 · ACTIVATE50%Carbon charging

Dilute and mix the first half of the dose uniformly through the dung. Cover and rest. Decomposers start on the lignocellulose.

DAY 21 · MULTIPLY25%Biological enrichment

Turn and aerate the batch, apply the next quarter, remix and cover. Carbon-fixing and nutrient-mobilising microbes multiply.

DAY 31 · STABILISE25%Nutrient integration

Apply the final quarter, turn uniformly and verify readiness: brownish-black, about 40% moisture, no odour.

READY · APPLY~⅓Less material, more value

Roughly 1,000 kg/acre of enriched manure replaces about 3,000 kg of ordinary FOM, with 67% less handling.

Typical dose: 50–100 L Carbovardhak per tonne of cattle dung (500 kg FOM + 35 L Carbovardhak + 35 L water → 570 kg enriched output). Paddy straw and dung compost runs 20–35 days with three turnings.

Carbon-Centric Digestate Valorisation Platform™

One CBG plant. Two value engines.

A CBG plant is both an energy facility and an organic-resource processing facility. Energy is recovered as gas; carbon and nutrients continue through the digestate. The second value chain begins after digestion, not after disposal.

A · Energy ledger

Biogas → CBG

gas volume × methane recovery × CBG realisation

Primary plant revenue. XEN does not touch this process.

B · Digestate ledger

FOM + LFOM → premium fertiliser

FOM/LFOM quantity × verified quality × market offtake

More than 90% of the biomass leaving a digester comes out as digestate. Today it is mostly sold as low-value bulk manure.

<10% value realised

The 90% opportunity

Over 90% of digestate’s potential value is untapped.

Raw digestate has nutrients in low-available form, unstable carbon, inactive microbes, odour and pathogens, and gives farmers inconsistent results. Carbovardhak Flow activates that hidden potential and turns it into a new profit centre for the plant.

Digestate Engineering™ process

From residue to premium regenerative fertiliser.

XEN Microenterprise Network

Creating multifold income with village-level micro-entrepreneurs.

Individual entrepreneurs are XEN Farms’ primary distribution channel. They reach farmers directly, take ownership of their territory and grow with it. Do you want to lead the transformation of your area’s agriculture and build your own future?

Apply to join →1,000+ enquiries across West Bengal

Why entrepreneurs

Direct to the farmer, not through institutions first.

Legacy channel

Institutions first

FPCs, co-operatives and agri-retail chains: slower onboarding, shared margins, indirect farmer relationships.

XEN’s primary channel

Individual entrepreneurs · VLE / BLE / DLE

Direct-to-entrepreneur, faster territory rollout, dedicated last-mile ownership.

Faster rollout

New territories go live in weeks, not quarters.

Direct farmer relationships

No dilution of message, pricing or margin between XEN and the farmer.

Scalable territory model

Village → block → district replicates cleanly in new regions.

Local ownership

Entrepreneurs are invested in their own territory’s success and reputation.

The three-tier network

District oversees block. Block supports village.

A clear reporting cascade at every level, replicated block by block and district by district.

Live example · West Bengal

Winning your first farmers

Three promises. One small ask.

  1. Halve your crop input costCompared with urea, IFFCO-type fertilisers, micronutrients and pesticides, by switching to jaivik products.
  2. Increase your yield by about 10%From the very first season of use, not something you wait years to see.
  3. Get a better harvestBetter shape, size, colour and nutrition in every crop you take to market.

THE ASK

“Try it on just 1–2 katha first.”

Farmer meeting in a village hall Farmer meeting under a shed beside fields Evening farmer meeting with XEN banner Online entrepreneurship development workshop

Growth model

From 10 kathas to the whole gram panchayat.

STAGE 1 · 10 KATHASTrial plot success

A farmer tries XEN on a small plot: low risk, an easy yes, results that speak for themselves.

STAGE 2 · FARMER TO FARMERWord of mouth

Neighbours see the difference and come asking to try it themselves.

STAGE 3 · 1,000 BIGHA / GPScale to the territory

Trial success compounds into adoption across the whole gram panchayat.

One good trial plot is the seed of an entire gram panchayat.

Guarantee programme

Start on 1 katha, backed by a written contract.

XEN can guarantee crop and soil fertility outcomes by contract, so farmers start at close to half their usual input cost with documented results.

01Free soil test at the start

Baseline pH, organic carbon, NPK and micronutrients.

02Written application schedule

Crop-specific doses and timings, signed by both sides.

03Measure & compare the harvest

Yield recorded against a comparison plot.

04Free soil test at the end

Track the change in soil health.

Conditional guarantee of a 5–10% yield increase, with compensation if yield falls short as per contract terms. Guarantee is set based on soil testing and XEN VLE feedback; learn crop-specific conditions beforehand.
