Bringing Back
Nature to
Agriculture.
"Microbes are exquisite, omnipresent — the foundation of human survival and the future of food."
Founded in 2017 in Bengaluru, Capsber Agriscience was built on a single conviction — that biological science holds the answer to agriculture's greatest challenges. We manufacture precision biological inputs that restore the broken chains in agri-ecology.
From our two R&D centres and a team of 80+, we deploy proprietary platforms — BiointelX™, CapsElicit™, CapsulX™ and CAPSHARVEST™ — to take microbial intelligence from the lab to the field, across 20+ states and 5 international geographies.

The Science
Behind the Solution
Four interconnected platforms — from microbial discovery to precision fermentation, pharma-grade encapsulation and AI-powered advisory.
Intelligence Engine BiointelX™
A proprietary library of 30,000+ beneficial microbes — screened, sequenced and catalogued for targeted agronomic action across soil, root and foliar zones. AI-driven strain selection matches the right microbe to the right crop challenge.
- 30,000+ microbial strains catalogued and genomically profiled
- AI screening engine matches strains to crop & soil conditions
- Multi-zone action — rhizosphere, phyllosphere and endosphere
- Continuous library expansion from field isolations & academic research
Fermentation Platform CapsElicit™
Controlled fermentation that produces consistent, high-titre biological actives — maintaining colony viability and metabolite concentration at industrial scale. Every batch validated against strict QC parameters before release.
- High-titre fermentation — consistent CFU/mL across all batches
- Industrial scale capacity at Doddaballapur facility
- Metabolite profiling ensures bioactive consistency
- Batch QC validation before every commercial release
Microencapsulation CapsulX™
Borrowed from pharmaceutical science — multi-layer microencapsulation that protects biologicals from heat, UV and pH stress. Extends shelf life to 18 months and dramatically improves field bioavailability.
- Multi-layer polymer coating shields against heat, UV & pH
- 18-month shelf life — vs industry average of 6–12 months
- Controlled release in root zone for maximum bioavailability
- Pharma-grade GMP standards applied to agri-biologicals
Advisory Platform CAPSHARVEST™
A digital agronomy engine connecting 3 lakh+ farmers to real-time crop health diagnostics, personalised biological recommendations and market intelligence — in their own language.
- 3L+ active farmers across 20+ Indian states
- AI crop diagnostics — disease, pest & nutrient deficiency detection
- Personalised bio-input recommendations per crop & geography
- Multilingual vernacular interface — 8+ Indian languages
18 Formulations.
6 Categories.
50+ Crops.
From biocontrol to post-harvest — a complete biological toolkit that replaces chemicals at every stage of the crop cycle.
Pest & Pathogen Management
Microbial and botanical agents that suppress, control and eliminate fungal, bacterial and pest threats — without chemical residue.
Biological Nutrient Management
Nitrogen fixers, phosphate solubilisers, potassium mobilisers and mycorrhizal inoculants that feed the crop through the soil food web.
Elicitors & Growth Promoters
Plant elicitors, seaweed extracts and humic substances that activate the plant's innate immune response and drive yield enhancement.
Bio-Based Weed Management
The first-of-its-kind biological weed management system — targeted, residue-free and safe for soil microbiome and non-target organisms.
Plant-Extract Crop Protection
Cold-pressed and steam-distilled botanical extracts — neem, karanja, garlic, pepper — formulated for broad-spectrum protection with zero PHI.
Shelf-Life & Quality Extension
Biological coatings and ethylene inhibitors that extend shelf life by 40–60% — reducing post-harvest losses and improving export quality.

Heard in the
Field
Real farmers. Real results. Unscripted stories from the farms where biology replaced chemistry.
"I was spending ₹18,000 per acre on pesticides every season. After switching to Capsber's biological programme, my input cost dropped to ₹4,200 — and my yield went up by nearly 40%. I haven't touched a chemical in two years."
"My coffee estate had a severe white stem borer infestation for 3 seasons. Capsber's biocontrol blend cleared it in one spray cycle. No chemicals, no residue — my beans now qualify for export premium."
"CAPSHARVEST sends me alerts before disease pressure builds. Last kharif, I didn't lose a single plant to late blight — neighbours lost 60% of their crop. The app literally saved my season."
"I was sceptical about biologicals. My agronomist convinced me to try one plot. That plot gave me 12 tonnes more than the chemical plot next to it. Now my entire 40 acres is biological."
