About Hemasundar Dhavili
AgriTech is a full-stack problem that needs a full-stack solution and agri startups have to be ready to roll up their sleeves, get their hands dirty, do the heavy lifting, be comfortable with heavy operations, and then use \"tech\" to make the entire thing faster, better and cheaper to eventually create a valuable business model. I\'ve been extremely bullish about the value-driven transformation, supported by tech, India\'s AgriFood economy and Rural supply chains are undergoing.
Experience
Co-founder COO
Jan 2021 — Present
AquaExchange addresses the fundamental challenges of shrimp & fish farming - unpredictable crop performance, high disease risk, lack of real-time monitoring, and limited access to formal credit. Farmers often operate with poor visibility into pond conditions and rely on manual, inefficient feeding and aeration practices, leading to losses and low productivity. AquaExchange provides an integrated IoT-powered automation and finance platform that includes 24x7 power and aeration monitoring, automated feeding systems, farm-health analytics, and credit/insurance enablement through real-time farm data. Our solution uniquely combines hardware + software + risk scoring + financing, making us the only full-stack aquaculture platform globally. Our USP is the IoT-powered full-stack platform, and industrial-grade automation designed for small, medium, as well as large global shrimp farms. We serve aquaculture farmers, feed companies, and financial institutions. As of 2025 end, we have IoT installations, acres under monitoring, farmers onboarded, and are scaling commercially in India and international markets.
