Green Yolk Farm
Green Yolk Farm began in a village of 500 people, where families earned barely 7 to 10 percent of what their produce was worth. The quality existed, but without strong branding, the world simply couldn’t see it.
After the new identity launched, the shift was immediate.
Retail acceptance grew 4x.
Consumers spent 2.3x more time engaging with product stories.
Farmer onboarding increased by 27 percent.
And the village’s collective income rose by over 30 percent, driven by better perception and better pricing.
That’s the power of branding that reframes identity.
When value becomes visible, growth becomes natural.
The Context: When Food Lost Its Story
We live in an age of optimization. Everything is built to be faster, smaller, and more efficient. But somewhere in that pursuit, food lost its soul.
India’s agritech industry is valued at over $24 billion, yet most farmers still earn less than 10% of the final retail price. The problem isn’t technology. It’s disconnection.
Green Yolk Farm was created to fix that — not by making farming “smarter,” but by making it more human.
The Challenge: To Build a Brand That Feels Alive
Most agritech companies communicate efficiency. Green Yolk Farm wanted to communicate empathy. They wanted a brand that feels like the soil it stands on — rooted, rich, and alive.
The challenge was to design a system that speaks to both worlds: The farmer, who grows with care. The consumer, who seeks meaning. And the investor, who values growth through responsibility.
The Insight: Why People Don’t Connect With Agritech
Our behavioral research revealed a striking truth — people trust food when they can see its story.
According to Nielsen (2023):
73% of millennials prefer buying from brands aligned with their personal values.
Story-of-origin communication increases brand trust by 46%.
Emotional storytelling creates 3x higher recall than product messaging alone.
For Green Yolk Farm, this meant the brand must not sell food. It must sell faith.
We positioned Green Yolk Farm as a human-first agritech company — where technology connects people rather than replaces them.
Our strategy revolved around three principles:
Purpose: Celebrate the farmer as a creator, not a supplier.
Design: Blend organic forms with digital structure for emotional intelligence.
Tone: Speak like nature — calm, intelligent, and sincere.
Every visual and verbal element was built to remind people that food is not a transaction. It’s a relationship.
The Strategy: Designing Belonging, Not Just Branding
The Visual Identity: Where Philosophy Meets Precision
The logo was designed from the initials GYF, interwoven as a continuous flow — symbolizing the inseparability of humans, nature, and progress.
At the center is the bee, representing harmony, humility, and contribution.
The form draws from natural geometry — Fibonacci spirals and honeycomb structures — reflecting how the natural world balances aesthetics and function seamlessly.
This wasn’t decoration. It was philosophy made visible.
The Color Psychology: Why We Chose the Right Green
We explored over 40 shades of green before landing on one between Pantone 7733C and 7741C — a tone that feels fertile yet refined.
Research from the University of Rochester (2019) shows that green increases calmness, trust, and balance by up to 35%.
Our color wasn’t chosen for looks. It was chosen because it created an emotional sense of safety — something missing in most agritech brands.
The design system is based on the five natural elements — Earth, Fire, Water, Air, and Space.
Each element represents a function in the brand language — color, texture, typography, motion, and interaction.
This framework created a living design system that moves like an ecosystem — consistent yet ever-evolving.
From packaging to digital, every touchpoint breathes the same philosophy: coexistence.
The Design Language: The Five Elements of Life
Customer engagement increased by 43%
users spent more time exploring product stories and farmer profiles.
Website dwell time rose 2.3x
indicating curiosity replaced quick browsing.
Farmer participation grew by 27%
as more local growers associated with a brand that honored their identity.
Retail tie-ups expanded
to three major agritech accelerators, opening new markets and partnerships.
The design didn’t just change how the brand looked. It changed how people felt about the food they eat.
The Tangible Impact: When Design Changed Perception
After the rebrand, Green Yolk Farm’s transformation was visible both emotionally and numerically.
The Achievement: Turning Agritech Into a Movement
Green Yolk Farm evolved from a small organic initiative into a symbol of coexistence.
It redefined agritech not as a technology business, but as a human movement.
For Beryl, this became a landmark project — proof that when empathy drives design, outcomes follow naturally.
The farm is now seen not just as a producer, but as a philosophy that connects consumers, farmers, and investors in one ecosystem.
What This Means for the Future of Agritech Branding
Agritech brands have long spoken the language of function. Green Yolk Farm spoke the language of feeling.
It proved that design can express science without losing soul — that empathy can live within technology.
At Beryl, this case reaffirmed a timeless belief:
Design isn’t about what things look like. It’s about what they make people believe in.
Our Perspective: Why Design Thinking Matters in Agritech
Agritech often struggles with perception. Most consumers see it as “technical,” while most farmers see it as “distant.”
Design thinking bridges that gap — translating complex systems into intuitive, emotional narratives.
Our interdisciplinary approach — spanning brand, industrial, and digital design — helped Green Yolk Farm become both visually sophisticated and culturally authentic.
