2. AGRI-COLD CHAIN MANAGEMENT IN
INDIA:STATUS & FUTURE PROSPECT 2

3. F & V in India
• India is worlds number one in milk, second in fruits
and third in fish production.
• Postharvest losses account for about 25% to 30% of
production.
• Quality of produce deteriorates by the time it reaches
the consumer.
• There is more wastage of fruits and vegetables in the
southern and western regions of India due to the
tropical and humid climate.

5. GROWTH OF SCM IN AGRICULTURE
• No concrete idea of of scientific supply chain.
• Just few players such as the farmer and the
trader.
• Emergence of regulated markets.
• Emergence of corporate into fruits and
vegetables sector.
• Contract farming with the farmers.

Storages 7

9. STAGES IN COLD CHAIN
• F & V should be frozen quickly after harvesting
to maintain high quality.
• Transported to refrigerated warehouses, through
reefer vehicles where they are stored at – 20 to –
23°C, from few days to months.
• Later moves to markets through reefer vans.
9

10. • Kept in refrigerated display cases held in the
market at 3 to 5°C for unfrozen fruits and
vegetables.
• In the case of bananas, there is no storage
period. Instead, there is a period of ripening.
The best temperature for slow ripening is
14.5°C.

11. PRESENT SCENARIO OF COLD
CHAIN IN INDIA
• Short by 10 million tons of cold storage capacity.
• 6,300 cold storage facilities unevenly spread across
the country, with an installed capacity of 30.11 MT.
• Growth has averaged 3 to 4% over the past 10 years.
• Ownership is mainly in the private sector, with the
public and cooperative sectors only comprising 10% of
capacity.
• However, some 75-80 per cent of these refrigerated
warehouses are used only to store potatoes.
11

12. • 36% of these cold storages in India have capacity
below 1,000 MT.
• 65% of India’s cold chain storage capacity is
contributed by the states of Uttar Pradesh and
West Bengal
• At the current capacity only less than 11% of what
is produced can be stored.

13. EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE 13

14. EXISTING GAP 14

15. KEY CHALLENGES
• Lack of quality cold warehousing infrastructure.
• Lack of standards and protocols in construction
and operation of facilities.
• Low awareness of labor in handling temperature-
sensitive products.
• High fuel cost and power cuts.
• Lack of low cost & environment friendly
technology.
15

16. GOVERNMENT INITIATIVES:
• 100% FDI
• 5% concession on import duty, service tax
exemption, excise duty exemption on several
items.
• Subsidy of over 25 to 33.3% on the cold storage
project cost
• Establishment of National Centre for Cold Chain
Development
• Over 50 to 70% capital grant on projects.
• Proposed financial outplay for cold chain
infrastructure of US $650 million.
16

17. GROWTH EXPECTED
• Setting up cold chains with PPP model.
• Then government is also promoting the food
safety and security bill that would further cold
chain facilities in order to reduce the amount of
food wastage.
• Cold chain industry is expected to grow at a
CAGR of 28% over the next three years and reach
a market size of $13 billion in 2017.
