How to make Crystal Crop ‘hara-bhara’
MUMBAI: It is good for farmers and crop at large. Crystal Crop Protection launched an interesting TV commercial on its popular fungicide – Bavistin. The evocatively-made commercial is being shown on major television channels, national as well as regional.
The main message of this TVC is it that Bavistin is a “zaroori”
(essential) product for all farmers if they want to keep their crop “swasth, and hara- bhara”(healthy).
This has been effectively captured in this imaginatively filmed TVC which takes the message home effectively. It is being aired as 30, 20 and 10 second spots on news and entertainment channels across India like Aaj tak, India TV, ABP Majha, Zee 24 Taas, DD Sahayadri, TV9, Sakshi TV, Public TV, ETV Telegu top name a few.
Crystal Group MD Ankur Aggarwal said, “With this commercial, Crystal aims to improve product awareness and provide farmers integrated solutions for crop protection”
Crystal sr. vice president marketing C S Shukla added, “Re- energizing brand Bavistin would do good with association on the aspiration and emotional levels.” Bavistin’s treated crop acreage is estimated around 70 lac acres.
Crystal works in three business verticals: agrochemicals, agro-equipment, and seeds. The company now has a strong international footprint in Egypt, Nigeria, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Turkey, and Bangladesh, and plans to expand to Latin America, Zambia, Zimbabwe, and South Africa.

NATIONAL: Amazon Ads has laid out a sharply tech-led vision for the advertising industry in 2026, arguing that artificial intelligence, streaming TV and creator partnerships will combine to turn brand building into a more precise, performance-driven business.
At the heart of the shift, the company says, is the fusion of AI with Amazon’s vast trove of shopping, browsing and streaming signals, allowing advertisers to move beyond blunt reach metrics to campaigns designed around real customer behaviour.
“The future of advertising is not about reaching more people, but the right people with messages that resonate,” said Amazon Ads India head and vice president Girish Prabhu. “By combining AI with deep customer insights, we help brands move from broadcasting campaigns to having meaningful conversations wherever audiences spend their time.”
One of the biggest changes, according to Amazon Ads, will be the collapse of the wall between media planning and creative development. Retail media, powered by first-party data, is increasingly shaping everything from brand discovery to final purchase, pushing marketers to design campaigns around audience insight rather than internal instinct.
AI is also moving from a support tool to a creative engine. Agentic AI, which automates and accelerates production, is expected to make high-quality creative accessible even to small businesses, compressing weeks of work into hours and giving challengers the ability to compete with larger brands on speed and scale.
Behind the scenes, AI-driven analytics will take on a bigger role in campaign optimisation, identifying patterns, spotting opportunities and recommending actions that would previously have required teams of analysts.
Streaming TV is another big battleground. With India’s video streaming audience now above 600 million and connected TV users at 129.2 million in 2025, advertisers are set to treat streaming not just as a branding channel but as a performance engine, measured increasingly by sales, sign-ups and bookings rather than just reach.
Finally, Amazon Ads sees creators and contextual advertising reshaping how brands tell stories. Creators will act less like influencers and more like long-term partners, while scene-aware ads on streaming platforms will allow brands to insert hyper-relevant offers into the flow of what viewers are watching.
Taken together, Amazon Ads argues, these shifts mark a move towards advertising that is both more human and more measurable, where AI handles the complexity, and creativity does the persuading.
