DIRECTORS' REPORT
Dear Members,
Your Directors have the pleasure in presenting before you ththe 25 Annual Report on the business and operations of
the Company along with the Audited Accounts of the Company for the financial year ended 31st March, 2010.
DIVIDEND
Your Directors are pleased to recommend a Dividend @ st70% for the year ended 31 March, 2010. Dividend, if
approved by the members at ensuing Annual General Meeting, will absorb Rs.6.43 crores and tax on dividend will absorb Rs.1.07 crores. Your Directors have also proposed to sub-divide the equity share capital of the Company to the consequential effect that each equity share of the nominal value of Rs. 10/- will be sub-divided into 5 equity shares of Rs. 2/- each. In case the Resolution proposed is approved by the requisite majority of members, the dividend will be paid in the same proportion i.e. Rs. 1.40 for an equity share of Rs. 2/- each.
BUSINESS OPERATIONS:
The country witnessed a weak monsoon during the year with overall rainfall being less than 23% of the normal, particularly in northern and western parts, witnessing less than 36% of the normal rains resulting in fall in cultivable land of major crops, particularly paddy. However, the industry recovered in the later part of the year due to restoration of normal rainfall.
The performance of pesticide industry remains highly dependent on weather which can affect the presence of disease and pest infestations in the short term on a regional basis. Accordingly, it may negatively affect the demand for crop protection products and the mix of products used.
Our strategy of creating sustainable and meaningful linkages across the entire farmer community over the country is helping us to create an inclusive agri-business.
Also, sales of agrochemicals in the domestic retail market are highly seasonal due to monsoons, with a majority of sales materializing between June and October every year. Floods, droughts and other extreme seasonal and cyclical factors create uncertainty of demand. Owing to the experience of promoters and directors and their strategic management interventions, your Company has been able to attain a growth of nearly 17% in gross turnover and over 56% in PAT during the year as compared to last year. The gross turnover of the Company has increased to Rs.445.55 crores during the fiscal year 2009-10 from Rs.380.87 crores of the previous year, while PAT improved to Rs.37.02 crores from Rs.23.20 crores on YoY basis. On the other hand, Pesticides Industry as a whole recorded a lower turnover growth of 7%.
To become sustainable in the long-term, your Company procures some of the major raw materials from its
foreign collaborators. This ensures stable long-term input price, agreed quality and on-demand quantity. Your Company is also planning to enter into more such tie-up collaborations with the foreign suppliers to ensure further growth of business.
In order to make our growth strategy sustainable, we set our sights on the achievement of both short and long-term goals through dedicated leadership, commitment and value enhancement at different levels of management. We have made global tie-ups for creating agri-assets, capacity expansion, R&D, innovation, brand building and diversification in different arenas to ensure long term growth and leadership position in the Indian market place. Our aim is to adopt a model which can cater to the needs of billions of people in India which is one of the world's most potential and under-exploited markets.
To serve the country and farming community with increasingly safer and eco-friendly molecules, the Company has launched various new products during the year, namely Dhawa Gold, Areva, Apple, D-era and Nabood. Market has shown encouraging response to these products. Dhanzyme Gold is the product in pipeline and will be introduced shortly.

has been running successfully and has started generating revenue. More such Wind Mill Power projects are expected to be installed in the near future. In addition, the Company is entering into Agri Retail Business based on the concept of Franchiser-franchisee for which purpose, your Company has already opened 7 retail outlets under the trade name of “Dhanuka Suvidha” within the State of U.P. for the marketing of agri-products and services.
Further, the Company has plans to incur capital expenditure for expansion of its existing units R&D, innovation of new molecules and products and brand building to ensure long term growth and to achieve leadership position in the Indian market. Besides, the Company will continue with its efforts in strengthening the marketing setup in the country. The Company has opened 7 new depots during the year to strengthen its market penetration and to save on transportation cost.
Rising concerns over crop losses and declining yields have given rise to the need to use more crop protection measures to feed the burgeoning population. The low per hectare consumption of pesticides in India and increased levels of awareness among the farming community about the use of pesticides are expected to augur well for the domestic pesticide industry. Higher farm output prices are giving pesticide manufacturers enough leverage to pass on any rise in raw material costs to the farmers. On the whole, the pesticide industry appears set to grow both in value and volume terms.
In order to improve liquidity of its shares, the Company has sought approval to get its shares listed on the National Stock Exchange and is proceeding with splitting of shares.

INDUSTRY STRUCTURE & DEVELOPMENT
Due to global economic slowdown, the Agro Chemical
Industry has grown by 10-15% during the year under
review as against an excellent 21% growth in the year
2008-09. During the year under review, the Kharif
season was severely hit due to poor monsoon adversely
impacting the paddy yield. Cotton was relatively pest
free. Rabi season was characterized by low pest and
disease infestation in key crops, especially paddy.
The average per hectare consumption of agrochemicals
in India is comparatively lower than consumption in
USA, JAPAN and other developed countries. Due to this,
Pesticides industry in India has a lot of potential to grow.
One more reason supporting this growth is industry's
capability to supply agrochemicals of good quality at
economical prices. Rapid growth in acreage of Bt Cotton
hybrids resulting in improvement in yield of cotton crop
is opening new opportunities for more consumption of
pesticides for the control of sucking pests and plant
growth nutrients.
India being a tropical country, the consumption pattern
of pesticides is tilted towards insecticides, accounting for
around 58-60% of the crop protection chemical market.
It is followed by herbicides and fungicides at 20% and
18% respectively. Globally, herbicides command around
50% market share, while insecticides and fungicides
around 24% and 22% share respectively.
Future of Pesticides Industry looks to be very bright with
increasing area being covered under usage of pesticides
every year. For the year 2010-11, Company is optimistic
of recording higher growth in comparison to previous
years.
DHANUKA'S OVERALL PERFORMANCE
2009-10 was an impressive year for your Company
which has been making continuous efforts for the
introduction of new molecules and formulating them in
the most scientific manner so as to serve the Indian
Farmers. Our endeavour is to make Indian Economy self
sufficient and self-reliant in terms of availability of food
grains. The Company has achieved a gross turnover of
Rs.445.55 Crores and further cemented its strategy of
creating an integrated, sustainable growth by further
strengthening the marketing network so as to achieve
deeper penetration into urban and rural India through a
retail distribution network.
REVIEW OF OPERATIONS
Since the promoters of Dhanuka Agritech Limited are
immensely experienced in the field of pesticide business,
the Company has managed to maintain its market share
of around 6% during the year under review despite stiff
competition from both domestic and international
players. The Company expects to maintain its hold over
existing territories due to its well entrenched distribution
network.
Dhanuka has achieved the sales and profitability targets
during the year by a threefold strategy of increasing
sales, penetrating newer markets and reducing costs.
Its prominent brands Targa Super and Caldan have
performed exceptionally well among the consumer class
in some states.
Dhanuka's dealers are spreaded in most of the farming
states across India. Its products command a decent
brand recall due to its large product portfolio and
innovative marketing campaigns. Dhanuka has opened
7 new depots in order to reach targeted customers in an
efficient manner. Foreign collaborations and tie-ups with
established MNC players have ensured superior quality
products and access to specialty molecules. The
molecules are then formulated in the most efficient and
effective manner for the purpose of consumption.
The consumption of pesticides in India is very low as
compared to other countries due to lack of awareness
regarding proper use of pesticides. But the need of the
hour is to use effective pesticides and judicious mix
thereof in the Indian farms for better yield and
productivity. Your Company aims at enhancing customer
relationships and thus has taken several initiatives to
strengthen farmer contact programmes. In this regards,
Dhanuka Doctors have been appointed by the Company,
who are entrusted with the task of giving practical
demonstrations on the fields to depict the true
implication of judicious use of pesticides. Innovative
techniques like multimedia and projectors are used for
this purpose.
With the objective of achieving sustainable growth, the
Company is planning to add some new products and
molecules in its range for addressing the growing
demand for improving plant health and quality of
produce. The Company launched various new products
during the year, namely Dhawa Gold, Areva, Apple, D-
era, Nabood, Dhanzyme Gold and Ad-Fyre. The
Company's efforts are directed towards providing
effective pesticides at reasonable prices.
In addition to Pesticides, the Company has also started
two Seed Research Farms, one at Noida and second at
Hyderabad. The income from Seeds business of your
Company has also shown a growth of over 58% in
comparison to last year. The Company is in the process
of introduction of new varieties / hybrids of vegetables
and crops developed at our research stations.
KEY OPPORTUNITIES, CHALLENGES & THREATS
FOR THE INDUSTRY
Dhanuka is dependent on the sales of formulated
MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS REPORT
14
products in the domestic market because it does not
have presence in technicals, unlike most of the
established players. The Company has identified sales
through its own retail outlets and is embarking on real
estate development which is however a challenging area
of growth. Also the turnover of the Company is
dependent on monsoon, its timing and usual distribution
largely.
Rising costs and uncertainty in availability of some key
raw materials continue to be a challenge. The exchange
rate fluctuations between Dollar and Rupee also impact
the raw material prices.
Farmers' affordability is also an important factor in view
of the rising prices and inflation. However, strong
produce prices and better availability of credit would
mitigate some of the pressure on the farming
community.
Moreover, scientific research has come up with seeds
that have self-immunity towards natural adversaries.
This can be a potential threat to the business of
agrochemicals. Best example of such an introduction in
the Indian market is "Bt Cotton", which resulted in
decline in the consumption of agrochemicals on cotton
crop. However, late there have been few reports of Bt
Cotton unable to develop immunity towards new type of
pests.
Indian agrochemical industry has a great potential to
grow. Although input cost of agrochemicals has
increased in India, still overall cost of production of
agrochemicals is much lower in comparison to Western
countries. With the advancement of Indian Technology,
involvement of young generation in the industry and
policies of government, many Indian companies are
playing significant role in the industry.
But on the other side of the coin, India is a large market
for pesticides. Even today, the consumption of pesticides
in India is very low in proportion to the area covered
under agriculture. There is a large scope for innovating
new products and exploration of new markets and
governing of revenues from the still to be discovered
avenues. Your Directors are taking appropriate
measures to build recognition in the Indian Corporate
world in order to exhibit the strength and capabilities of
the Company.
SEGMENT-WISE PERFORMANCE OR PRODUCT-
WISE PERFORMANCE
Dhanuka has a pan-India distribution and retail network
both in cities and in the interiors through a combination
of C&F agents, distributors, depots and local retailers
(franchisee). The Company continues to strengthen its
position in areas of sourcing raw materials, capturing
value in supply chain and logistics, expanding
manufacturing capabilities and widening its marketing
network.
The Company is operating in pesticides formulations and
seeds business. Volume of seeds business is, however,
quite low as compared to total business volume.
Also, the project of Wind mill established by the
Company in association with M/s Suzlon Energy Limited
has proved to be quite beneficial and is expected to reap
profits in the future.
The Company's focus on sustainable and long-term
business vision has helped in impressive growth of its
profitably.
OUTLOOK
Global Agrochemical industry has grown at an average
7.1% over Years 2001-08 to US $41.7 billion. For the
year 2008, the industry registered outstanding growth
of 25% on the back of volume growth and increase in
price.
The fundamentals of the Agriculture sector continue to
be robust and will drive growth in the years to come.
With the economy showing signs of recovery, demand
for food, fodder and fuel will further go up and should
lead to robust growth in agriculture. The encouraging
prices of agricultural commodities are expected to
continue and will lead to increased investment by the
farmers to protect his crop as well as to improve his
productivity.
The yield per hectare in India is among the lowest in the
world - 2.9 mn tonnes per hectare against the US' 7.8,
Japan's 6.2 and world average of 4.0 mn tonnes per
hectare. India produces approximately 16% of the
world's total food grain production and uses only around
2% of pesticides. Avoidable crop losses are at 10-30% of
domestic crop production. Rising population, coupled
with declining rate in crop production across the world, is
expected to cause continued thrust on arresting crop
losses and, therefore, on increasing usage of pesticides.
The reason for low consumption can be attributed to
fragmented land holdings, low level of irrigation, high
dependence on monsoons and low awareness among
farmers about the benefits of using pesticides. This does
not compare well with other countries that have less
arable land under coverage.
In the light of foregoing, the future prospects of the
agrochemicals industry appear promising on account of
the increasing need to protect farm produce from pests,
higher farmer affordability and lucrative farm produce
prices.
Further, the growing varieties of various pests, diseases,
and their growing resistance to various pesticides will
keep the demand for new products upbeat. The

agrochemical space offers enough scope for growth for
both innovators as well as generic players.
Despite rise in raw material costs for pesticide players,
corresponding increase in farm output prices has made
use of pesticides more affordable to farmers. The
industry is expected to attain an impressive CAGR of 9%
in value terms in the next five years.
With initiatives taken by the Company to properly
educate and train the farmers, consumption of
agrochemicals is expected to increase. Training and
counseling are imparted to farmers to make them aware
of the latest technology of farming, judicious use of
pesticides & fertilizers so that they may get better yield
from their land.
RISKS & CONCERNS
Changes in regulations for the pesticide industry,
adverse crop conditions due to weather, lack of
innovation in the domestic pesticide industry, which
make players dependent on generics, threat from
biotech seeds, dependence of farmers on the mercy of
Lord Indra for their crops and uneven weather conditions
are some of the risks which are being faced by the agro
chemical industry in India.
An agrochemical Company has to comply with stricter
pollution laws to run the plant. The pesticides Company
has to ensure minimum waste generation and by-
products and its disposal has to ensure no negative
impact on environment. Apart from this, at the time of
introduction of any new molecule, the Company has to
undergo many rounds of field trials; process of data
generation is quite lengthy and cumbersome. Farmers
affordability, realization of dues from customers and
rising costs of inputs are other risks involved.
The Company has to take product liability insurance for
sale of all products. Imports of technicals and raw
materials face the risk of foreign exchange fluctuation.
INTERNAL CONTROL SYSTEMS
The Company has an adequate internal audit control
system commensurate with the size and nature of its
business. The management continuously reviews the
internal control system and procedures to ensure
orderly and efficient conduct of business, to safeguard
properties of the Company and compliance with policies
and statutes.
The Company has appointed Manoj Ritu and Associates,
Chartered Accountants for conducting the internal audit
or its various allied activities in order to monitor the
performance of the Company on a continuous basis and
to suggest not only remedial but improved measures for
operating the business. The Company adheres to its
written corporate policies with respect to all
transactions, financial reporting and budgeting. The
management regularly conducts Internal Audits through
Internal Audit Department to monitor small the
effectiveness of internal controls in the organization. The
Audit Committee of the Board reviews the significant
observations of the internal & statutory auditors on
financial and control concerns, which has further
strengthened the overall control on the business.
HUMAN RESOURCES
The Company has a team of well-qualified and dedicated
marketing, production, research and back office staff. As
the pesticides is a seasonal industry, the Company
employs qualified technical people called DHANUKA
DOCTORS during the season who alongwith the
marketing staff impart training to farmers about the safe
and judicious use of pesticides.
All employees of the Company are covered under various
schemes including the Group Insurance Scheme, the
premium on which is borne by the Company, to help the
family in case some mishappening occurs to the
employee. The Company also has various incentive
schemes for its marketing staff. Chairman's Trophy is
being awarded to the best branch and employee by the
Group Chairman every year. Besides, a Star Performer
award is given every month in every branch to the staff
who achieves highest sales volume with highest
collection during the month. In addition, Dhanuka

congenial atmosphere in the organization and
constructs a strong bond among the employees of
Dhanuka.
