India is the World’s second largest producer of Fruits & Vegetables. However, the processing of perishable products in our country is very low, in comparison to the developed countries or developing countries like China, Brazil, Malaysia, Vietnam, etc. One of the main constraints in the growth of processing of fruits & vegetables in the country is non-availability of modern and suitable infrastructure with efficient supply Chain. Consequently, there is very high level of wastage of the fruits & vegetables in the country resulting in the farmer not getting adequate remuneration for his yield. A study conducted by Central Institute of Post Harvesting Engineering Technology (CIPHET), Ludhiana, an ICAR institute, reveals that wastage in various agricultural crops in the country range from 6-18% and the highest loss has been shown in fruits and vegetables.

Ministry of Food processing Industries invites views/ suggestions for reduction of these losses.

Last date for sending your suggestions is 1st February 2015.

Avoid the intermediaries, warehouse were give to corporate to reduce the wastage. In case not avoid the intermediaries in market collect HIGH RATE TDS their INCOME. Most of intermediaries not pay income tax. but they earn more than farmer. Intermediaries like commission agent for vegetable & fruits and provision items. brokers in real estate business also not show their income to GOVERNMENT. those intermediaries aand brokers mention their PAN number in registered documents like bill/invoice.

Simple way to avoid wastage, store minimum, sell them maximum. In Surat city, there are more than 50 subzi mandi in very small area covering entire city. As a result, sellers can sell their vegetables maximum and also at cheaper price. Small farmers should unite together, sell their vegetables directly to market instead of giving to mediator or wholeseller.

The losses in supply chain of frutis and vegitables may be easily solved by using GRID system , according to this system every mandi or storage block must be interconnected so if the fruits or vegetables is found to be in abundance may be used at the place where these are lacking and all these would need good management and corruption free work.

The animals are currently eating this food, however, it is not a managed process - so the stray animals like cows will eat from the rubbish bin. However, if the food was put into proper feeding trays, then cattle herders could bring their animals to the bhajji mandai and they would eat all the vegetables and greens wastage - in a more managed way.
