MEGA FOOD PARKS


42 Mega Food parks worth 2,000 crore to be set in the country: Harsimrat  Kaur Badal

The Union Food Processing Minister announced construction of mega food parks in the country . The food parks  will  have all the modern facilities like Production & Processing Plants , cold storage ,collection and transport facilities .This will  not only provide value to farmers for their hard work but also generate employment  opportunities. 
According to the minister , one  Mega Food Park will provide direct employment to 30 thousand people  and will benefit 1 lakh people indirectly. Beside this , it  will also be used to generate fuel (ethanol ) through maize. Emphasis will be given on adequate staff in agriculture Universities so that research in the field of agriculture can be done. 
This step is vital  as tonnes of grains are wasted and farmers cannot  rip full benefits of their hard work.
