What is SFI?
Soil Fertility Institute, Pune, founded by Mr. Santosh Latnekar, is dedicated to restoring soil health through innovative, sustainable, and farmer-friendly solutions.
We work closely with farmers, sugar factories, industries, and agricultural organizations to improve soil fertility, increase crop productivity, and reduce soil salinity.
Our expertise includes Jeevamrut Concentrate projects, organic soil enrichment technologies, and practical soil health management systems.
Through research, awareness programs, training sessions, and field demonstrations, we promote natural and regenerative farming practices.
Our mission is to build healthier soils, healthier crops, and a healthier future for Indian agriculture. By combining scientific knowledge with traditional wisdom, we help create sustainable solutions for long-term agricultural prosperity.
The Story of Soil & River
01
The Golden Era – Nature's Perfect Cycle
For generations, soil, water, and farming worked together in harmony. Indigenous cows, traditional compost pits (Ukirda), earthworms, and beneficial microorganisms created a self-sustaining ecosystem that kept soil fertile, groundwater abundant, and rivers naturally clean.
Healthy and fertile soil
Strong groundwater recharge
Clean, odor-free rivers and water bodies
Sustainable agricultural productivity
02
The Breakdown of Nature's Cycle
With the Green Revolution and changing rural lifestyles, traditional composting practices declined. The use of chemical fertilizers increased while beneficial soil microorganisms gradually disappeared.
Soil became hard and less fertile
Water infiltration reduced
River and groundwater quality deteriorated
Crop health weakened
Dependence on chemical fertilizers increased
Dependence on pesticides increased
03
Restoring the Natural Balance
Modern agriculture does not suffer from a shortage of minerals—it suffers from a shortage of microbiology.
Inspired by the traditional Ukirda compost system, Soil Fertility Institute developed Jeevamrut Concentrate, a high-microbial biological solution made from indigenous cow-based ingredients.

The SFI Solution
Jeevamrut Concentrate helps restore the living biological strength of soil and supports healthier, more resilient crop growth.
Restore beneficial soil microorganisms
Improve soil organic carbon
Revive earthworm activity
Unlock trapped nutrients in the soil
Strengthen root growth and plant health
Improve natural disease resistance
05
Rebuilding Nature's Living Cycle
When microorganisms return, soil becomes alive again. Water penetrates deeper into the ground, soil fertility improves, rivers benefit from natural purification, and farming becomes more sustainable.
At Soil Fertility Institute, our mission is not just to grow better crops — but to regenerate life from the soil upward and restore nature's living cycle for future generations.
How Our Solutions Create Impact
We develop microbial-based technologies for soil health, waste management, wastewater treatment and biogas systems. Our solutions improve decomposition, restore microbial balance, and enhance overall environmental performance.

Soil Fertility Institute
Rebuilding Soil. Reviving Nature. Sustaining Life.
Harnessing the power of Indigenous Cow-based bio-solutions, microbes & natural ecosystems to restore soil health, rejuvenate rivers, and eliminate waste challenges sustainably.
Nature’s Circular Intelligence at Work
At the heart of our approach lies a self-sustaining natural cycle powered by Indigenous Cow resources and microbial intelligence. What begins as dung and urine is transformed through a structured composting process, activating powerful microbes and fungi that enrich the ecosystem. This, in turn, creates a nourishing environment for earthworms, accelerating natural decomposition and soil regeneration. The result is a living system where every element works in harmony—restoring soil fertility, enhancing biological activity, and converting waste into valuable resources, just as nature intended.
