By 100X Circle Pvt Ltd · 5 min read · Updated May 2026
Agricultural cooperatives, Farmer Producer Organisations (FPOs), and Krishi Vigyan Kendras (KVKs) provide shared pest management equipment to members. A thermal fogger shared among cooperative members can serve 50–200 farmers, making it cost-effective for small landholding communities.
Verdict: Cooperative Shared Fogger Model Wins
For cooperatives serving 50+ farmers, a shared portable thermal fogger from 100X Circle (₹30,000–₹70,000) is the most cost-efficient model. Each farmer's share comes to ₹600–₹1,500. Cooperative purchase also qualifies for agricultural department subsidy schemes in some states.
