Camson Biotechnologies

Camson Biotechnologies is an Indian agricultural biotechnology company that pioneered the use of secondary metabolites for crop protection and nutrition. The company developed a range of zero-residue products, including bio-pesticides, bio-fertilizers, and hybrid seeds, aimed at sustainable farming. Headquartered in Bangalore, it focused on replacing synthetic chemicals with microbial-based solutions. However, the company entered insolvency proceedings and has faced delisting from the Bombay Stock Exchange due to financial distress. Despite these challenges, its research into microbial fermentation and metabolite extraction remains a notable contribution to the Indian agri-biotech sector. The company's product portfolio was designed to improve soil health and crop yields while ensuring environmental safety.
