The global Agro systems currently follows UNSUSTAINABLE methods by reducing the number of species cultivated for food. We are following both inter and intra species diversity to promote biodiversity for healthy and nutritious diet. Biodiversity is paramount for adapting crops to climate change. The bottom line is out of 400,000 plant species in the world, ABOUT 300,000 ARE EDIBLE FOR HUMANS. At present ONLY ABOUT 150 SPECIES are actively cultivated and consumed.

At present, Maize, Rice, Wheat and Potatoes are the most consumed food crops in the world. JUST 15 CROPS PROVIDE 90% OF GLOBAL ENERGY IN TAKE. Most of these crops are high input intensive, causes high emissions, High water usage, Low profitability, have volatile markets, vulnerable to climatic pressures. Global food supply is extremely susceptible to pests or diseases, since farms are dominated by a few line ages of crops.

Peermade Development Society (PDS)

Our parent company, PDS Organic Spices the pioneer exporter of organic spices from India, since 1998.

PDS Organic Spices is a unit of Peermade Development Society,(PDS), a non-governmental organisation, (NGO) registered under the Travancore Cochin Literacy and Charitable Societies Registration Act of 1955. From its inception in 1980, PDS has been striving for a better quality of life for the poor and needy, especially tribal communities, marginalized farmers, women and children, spread across the Western Ghats region of Idukki district in the state of Kerala, India.

Inspired by the Bible passage “… that they may have life and have it abundantly” (John 10:10), PDS reaches out to give each individual the chance for sustainable development. Along with many other activities, like tribal development, upliftment programmes for women and children, land, water and biomass management, biodiversity conservation, climate change adaptation programmes, R&D programmes for agriculture, animal husbandry, indigenous medicines and rural technology, micro enterprise development, etc., the promotion of organic farming is one of the main objective of PDS to ensure sustainable livelihood to the small and marginal farmers and their families.

PDS started propagating the idea of sustainable farming in the early ’80s and as a result, a lot of small and marginal farmers were converted to chemical-free farming. Spices of the Western Ghats-the place of origin, from these small farmers, were aligned with the international organic movement. PDS established the PDS Organic Spices unit in the late ’90s to connect global customers and genuine local producers of quality spices.

PDS organic spices aggregated the small producers, certified their land as per the international organic standards, process their produce, and market it in the national and international market, and thereby the farmers are assured fair income. Currently, PDS Organic Spices is working with 2500 small and marginal farmers including tribals in the region.

These small farmer communities get intensive support in organic farming, protection of indigenous varieties, value addition, and quality improvement in their produces. They are continuously trained on the topics of organic agriculture, production of compost, use of organic fertilizers, prevention and cure of plant diseases with the aim to increase the quality of their produces and to protect the environment. During the purchasing time, the farmers are getting a premium price to honor the ecosystem services provided by these organic farming communities.

All the activities are characterized by professional teamwork and leadership style, aimed at self-reliant, empowered communities.  The well-established farmer management system of PDS Organic Spices, which consists of an Internal Control System and farm extension team, and extensive monitoring at all levels of production and processing helps to ensure transparency of operations and farm to fork traceability of the organic products. 

“…..that they may have life and have it abundantly” (John 10:10)

Empowerment of village communities especially the tribals, women and the marginal farmers towards sustainable development by conserving and enhancing local resources in order to have fullness of life”.

All farming activities are designed to sustain biodiversity and ecology and with the very conscious mind that what we do is for the future generations on earth and not for the present. The certification of the small and marginal farmers is being done in accordance with the guidelines of USDA NOP Organic, EU Organic, and NPOP Organic Standards of India.

Once a farmer submitted an application to become an organic farmer, the internal control inspector of PDS Organic Spices will do an inspection visit in the applicant’s farm in order to check whether the details given in the application were correct. He will submit a report along with the application to the Internal Control Manager of PDS Organic Spice, who scrutinizes and approves the application. Once the application is approved, a three-year transformation period will follow in which the farmer adjusts his cultivation to the relevant organic standards. Throughout the certification process, the farmers are supported with training on good organic farming practices and are regularly visited by the Internal Control Inspector who documents the development, supports the farmers, and helps in handling the certification process. After three years, the third-party control body audits the farmer’s land, and based on the audit report, the farm gets certified.
