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.
