TATA Agrico, the oldest brand of TATA Steel, is a pioneer in superior quality agricultural implements. Since 1925, it has been the leading manufacturer of hoes, shovels, sickles, crowbars, pickaxes and hammers. These implements cater to the needs of agriculture, infrastructure as well as mining sectors. This has been the traditional product range which has now become even more richer with the addition of garden tools. Now, Agrico has also entered the hand tools market launching its own range of files, pliers, spanners, wrenches, screwdrivers and other tools. Agrico has also forayed into the mechanized implements market with the launch of consumables like rotavator blade, tiller shoe, harrow disc etc and also non-consumable tractor attachments like rotary tiller. For the mechanized agricultural sector, Agrico has introduced the sub brand Grasshopper. TATA Agrico is committed to operating in a responsible way with respect to the health, safety and wellbeing of its employees, channel partners and the communities in which it operates. It is also committed to the sustainable management of the environment and of finite resources. The division lays extreme stress on quality processes and is ISO 9001:2008 certified. The skill and knowledge acquired over half a century, modern methods of manufacture and strict supervision at every stage of manufacturing, guarantee consistently high quality and durability to Agrico products. The high quality of TATA Agrico implements makes them the first choice of farmers, carpenters, mechanics, plumbers, government agricultural departments, the Indian Railways, defence services, collieries and Central and State Government Departments.
