Agricultural storage Infrastructure in Haryana : An Overview

Abstract

Saving grain equals producing grain. When one considers the amount of agricultural food that is wasted or lost after harvest as a result of poor supply chain management, these wise statements seem like ordinary proverbs. Post-harvest losses of this magnitude can be attributed to a number of factors, including inadequate warehousing, redundant food processing technologies, and a lack of value-added services for farmers due to a lack of scientific storage facilities and inefficient transportation. For their own consumption and usage, farmers are believed to hold roughly 65 percent of their entire harvest in a rudimentary and unscientific fashion. “In 2016–17, Haryana had the third highest per capita income in India, at 214,509 (US$3,300), compared to the national average of 112,432 (US$1,800). The state's estimated GSDP of US$95 billion in 2017-18 (52 percent services, 30 percent industries, and 18 percent agriculture) is boosted by 30 SEZs (mainly along DMIC, ADKIC, and DWPE in NCR), 7% national agricultural exports, 60% of national Basmati rice export, 67 percent cars, 60 motorcycles, 50 tractors, and 50 percent tractors. A City Mayors Foundation poll ranked Faridabad ninth globally and third in India. With respect to IT growth and current technological infrastructure, Gurugram is India's No. 1 and No. 2 respectively It is surrounded by Himachal Pradesh to the north-east, the Yamuna to the east, Rajasthan to the west and south, and the Ghaggar-Hakra River to the north. Because Haryana borders Delhi on three sides (north, west, and south), it is included in the National Capital Region for planning and development reasons.
