Autonomous Hubs
Self-operating sorting, cold storage, and packaging facilities placed at the edge of every farming cluster.
Cultivar
Every harvest. Every farmer. Every plate.

The Problem
30–30%
of India's harvest is lost between farm and plate. Spoilage, broken cold chains, fragmented logistics — billions of meals, gone.
The Vision
Three systems. One network.
Driverless Logistics
Fleet of autonomous refrigerated trucks moving produce hub-to-hub, plate-to-plate, on routes optimized in real time.
Direct Markets
Farmers paid in seconds, not seasons. Every farm connects straight to retailers, restaurants, and exporters — no middlemen, no skimmed margins.
The Network
A network that thinks.
Twenty-five hubs. Thousands of vehicles. Millions of farmers. One coordinated intelligence routing every kilo of produce from the field it grew in to the plate it'll sit on — without a single human dispatcher.
Inside a Hub
Five zones. One coordinated system.
01Zone
Loading
Twelve docking bays. Three minutes per truck. No human handlers.
02Zone
Sorting
AI vision grades every piece in milliseconds. No mango is the same as the next.
03Zone
Cold Storage
Eight pallets high. Zone-specific climates. CO₂ refrigeration.
04Zone
Packaging
Carton-by-carton precision. Robots pack, humans handle exceptions.
05Zone
Control Center
Edge AI per hub. Federated learning across the network. No central choke point.

How It Works
From farm gate to dispatch yard in under six hours.
A single tomato enters the hub on a farmer's truck and leaves on an autonomous one — graded, cooled, packed, and routed without ever being touched by a stranger. Here is the path it takes through one of Cultivar's twenty-five hubs.
01
Loading bay
Truck reverse-docks. Crates lifted onto conveyor in under three minutes.
02
Sorting line
AI vision grades every piece. Off-spec produce diverted. Grades A, B, and C streams formed.
03
Cold storage
SRVs shelve crates eight pallets high in CO₂-cooled aisles, each tuned to its crop's climate.
04
Packaging
Robotic arms pack graded produce into buyer-sized Cultivar cartons, sealed and tagged.
05
Dispatch
Autonomous trucks depart with route, temperature, and delivery window pre-assigned.
The autonomous truck
Skateboard chassis. Solid-state battery. Solar roof. Self-routes across India.
The Storage Retrieval Vehicle (SRV)
Three-stage telescoping mast. Reaches eight pallets high. Coordinated by hub AI.
The hub master plan
200 by 150 metres. Eight zones. 2,000 tonnes of produce per day.
The Numbers
What it adds up to.
0×
Average increase in farmer income across the network.
3–3%
Post-harvest waste — down from the current 30–40%.
0.0B
People fed — every farmer and every plate, end to end.
