Further, ITSC, Himvanshnee, FPO, Rani Durgawati, Kareli Organic Farmers Producers Company Limited, and many other organizations are participating in the summit.

The well-organized and managed Agribusiness Summit aims to transfer value and knowledge to the farmers and participating organizations, and will also honour the work done by individuals as well as institutional organizations' excellence in the field of agriculture, agribusiness, food processing, and agricultural services, with the “Krishi Bhushan Awards”.

In the course of several years, the program has achieved huge success, with hundreds of people attending the event every year, of which many are board members of various Farmer's Organizations (FPO/FPCs) and cooperatives.
