The Abtec
Roots
We believe that nothing can substitute experience and that’s exactly what our ABTEC roots serve.
ABTEC is one of the pioneers in India to establish a Microbial Inoculant based Bio Inputs production unit in India. The commercial production started during the year 1993 at industrial Area, Poovanthuruth – P.O, Kottayam, Kerala. Initially we started off as a unit manufacturing Bio fertilizers such as Azospirillum, Azatobacter, Rhizobium, Phosphobacteria, VAM and Bio Potash. Subsequently we added a number of Bio control agents, Bio Pesticides and Organic Manure to the range of products. Currently apart from full range of Bio Inputs, ABTEC is into the research & development of natural repellents, hygienic and home care products, personal care products etc.
The Tale
of Our
Beginning
The forces changed, yet the essence remains the same.
Back in 1991, when little was known about Bio fertilizers and farmers were fully into conventional farming. During that time an ambitious middle class boy from Kerala, happened to meet a young Agricultural scientist from Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore. It was K J Jacob current Chairman of ABTEC and Late. Dr. D Clarson who later together started ABTEC. The first lab was set up in 1991 in a small room in Jacob’s house in Kottayam, Kerala. They performed trials after trials and failures after failure, managed to get started with one product that is Azospirillum. Due to lack of infrastructure to maintain a sterile microbiology lab, Jacob started searching for industrial land and finally managed to get one land in a new Industrial Area developed by the industries department in Poovanthuruth, Kottayam. They had confidence in the product but had no funds to invest. Pledging Jacob’s house, he managed to get a loan from Kerala Financial Corporation (KFC). The year is 1993 and thus ABTEC was born. The then Cabinet Minister for Agriculture in India, S Krishna Kumar inaugurated the first bio fertilizer lab in Kerala on 3rd of January 1993. The rest is history.
