MFM is a climate-tech startup developing biochar-based solutions to restore degraded soils and build climate-resilient agriculture.

Our mission is to transform agricultural waste into scalable solutions that improve soil health, increase productivity, and support sustainable farming systems.

Our journey began in the field.
In coastal regions such as West Bengal, we observed severe soil salinity and degraded farmland conditions that limited crop productivity.

Farmers were increasingly dependent on chemical fertilizers, yet soil health continued to decline.
This experience led us to develop a solution that could restore soil while remaining practical and scalable in real-world conditions.

MFM converts shrimp processing waste into biochar-based fertilizer designed for saline and climate-stressed soils.

Our system combines low-cost production, field deployment, and data-driven validation to deliver practical agricultural solutions.

Our strength lies in translating scientific hypotheses into field-proven solutions by bridging research, engineering, and real-world validation.

• Hypothesis-driven development, from lab-scale experiments to product design

• Field validation and iterative refinement under real agricultural conditions

• Data-driven analysis using NDVI, CWSI, and multi-modal sensing data

🔬MFM Research team's Capabilities

• Machine Learning & Deep Learning for agricultural sensor data analysis

• Plant Physiology-based interpretation of crop responses using spectral image and photosynthetic data

• Multi-modal data analysis (optical, environmental, and field data integration)

MFM has been selected for and supported by the Korea International Cooperation Agency CTS Seed 1 program($250K).

Our technology has been validated through field trials, international conference presentations, and ongoing peer-reviewed research paper.

We aim to:

• scale up production to significantly reduce costs and improve accessibility for local farmers

• Expand farmer education on biochar application and climate-resilient agriculture

• Create additional value through carbon credit certification
