From Colonial Scars to Ecological Hope
The Rangpur Renaissance
The Rangpur region in northern Bangladesh carries deep historical resonance with indigo. During the 18th and 19th centuries, forced indigo cultivation left scars on the region’s socio-economic landscape.
Today, Bengal Indigo is rewriting this narrative. By reintroducing Indigofera as a voluntary, high-value leguminous crop in rotation with local cropping patterns, we are turning historical land into a beacon of regenerative agriculture.
Started in Rangpur District, Bengal Indigo is expanding Indigofera cultivation in the Greater Mymensingh Region.
