Dr. Gopalakrishna Pommaiah Shetty

Founder & Chairman

Dr. Gopalakrishna Pommaiah Shetty studied his primary and secondary education in Udupi and graduation at the famous Willington College, Sangli. After obtaining B.Sc. Hons from Pune University, he joined Shivaji University Kolhapur for his Post - Graduation. While doing M.Sc. in Plant Physiology he gets the opportunity to associate himself with Dr. G. V. Joshi, winner of the prestigious Bhatnagar Award. Impressed by Shetty's devotion to the subject Dr.Joshi persuaded him to do Doctorate. Under his guidance, Shetty obtained Ph.D. in Plant Physiology and Plant nutrients.

Being a farmer himself, Dr. Shetty felt that his knowledge should not be confined to academic corridors, but taken to the fields where it could be of practical use to the farmers. With that ambition, Dr. Shetty started Karnataka Agro Chemicals in 1974, under the guidance of his mentor Dr. G. V. Joshi who took pride of proving that the hand that can hold the apparatus could also wield the plough. He would often refer Dr. Shetty as an example for others to emulate.

Today, the seed he sowed has grown into a giant tree called MULTIPLEX GROUP OF COMPANIES, meeting the diverse needs of the farmers. With this, Dr. Shetty's ambition to serve the farmers grew Multifold. He continues to be the driving force for us.
