Founder & CEO

Farmers don't fail because of lack of effort - they fail because of lack of timely, accurate decisions. Potato Intel exists to fix that.

About

About Harsh.

Harsh is a 3rd generation potato farmer and seasoned agronomist from Gujarat, India who has spent the last decade inside the real potato farming ecosystem — from planting to harvest, from contract networks to processing buyers.

Frustrated by how much science never reached the field, and how much field knowledge never reached the science, he started Potato Intel to close that gap.

Today he leads product vision, agronomy strategy, and ecosystem partnerships — but he still spends time in the field every season. That grounding is the engine of Potato Intel's product quality.
