Transforming Agriculture through Cold Chain Infrastructure
Cold chain infrastructure is revolutionizing India's agriculture by reducing post-harvest losses, boosting farmer income, and improving exports.
Agriculture is a core component of India's success, with around 65% of the population engaged in agricultural and allied activities, generating significant income for many households.
In FY25, India exported approximately Rs. 3,17,831 crore (US$ 36.97 billion) worth of agricultural produce to over 200 countries worldwide.
However, a substantial portion of this produce is lost due to lack of proper storage, which is where cold storage infrastructure plays a crucial role.
Cold storages maintain the product's efficacy, bridging the gap between high production and high demand markets, both domestic and international.
By maintaining the product's efficacy, cold storages bridge the gap between high production and high demand markets.
