    Bollywood actor Manoj Bajpayee has been appointed as the new brand ambassador of Krish-e, Mahindra Group's new Farming as a Service (FaaS) business. The company's chairman Anand Mahindra has expressed joy regarding Bajpayee's appointment as the brand ambassador. Mahindra wrote, "Delighted to welcome you to the Krish-e family.

    “This Dussehra, farmers will triumph over pests, diseases and weather through scientific solutions," he added.

Currently, the advisory services are available for Sugarcane, Wheat, Potato, Maize, Chilli and Paddy crops across various states. The Mahindra Group will be launching more crops soon in the coming months.

    The app comprises a complete advisory through various activity modules like a ‘crop calendar’, ‘fertilizer calculator’, and 'spray calculator'.

    A digital diary to record all types of transactions, called ‘Digital Khata’ is also available inside the app. Besides, it features ‘Len-Den Diary’ for helping farmers keep track of their finances, and An in-app ‘Helpline’ for farmers which helps them connect to Krish-e Sahayaks and get their queries resolved.
