It is seen that food products industry,
compared to other industries has
the largest number of factories and
engages largest number of persons as
well. Since the food products industry
does not figure in top five with respect
to fixed capital, it shows that this
sector is highly labour intensive per
unit of capital deployed. Despite low
capital intensity, the output of food
products is not compromised as it is
the largest among all industries. Thus,
every unit of capital invested in food
products industry employs largest
number of persons as compared to
other industries while generating
the highest output level as in other
industries.
Food Processing Industry is one of the
major employment intensive segments
constituting 12.43% (at 3-digit of

Table-2.4 looks at the 18 sub-sectors of food
processing industry (Source: ASI 2016-17).
In the FP industry, on an average, the fixed
capital per registered factory is Rs.5.69 crore
indicating that most of the factories in this
sector are micro and small enterprises under
the definition of Micro, Small and Medium
Enterprises Development (MSMED) Act,
2006. However, variation in fixed capital per
registered factory is as high Rs.84.35 crore in
the case of sugar mills and Rs.49.96 crore
in malt liquors and malt industry and as low
as Rs.1.2 crore in grain mill products industry,
Rs.3.37 crore in bakery products and Rs.3.61
crore in other food products inclusive of tea,
coffee, edible nuts, infant food, papad, spices
etc.

Gross Value Added (GVA) in percentage
terms on average stands at 12.47% but with
significant variation across sub-sectors. Some
of the sub-sectors with high percentage of
GVA are Manufacture of Prepared meals
and dishes at 155.16%; Soft Drinks, Mineral
Water and other bottled water at 40.6%; and
cocoa, chocolate and sugar confectionery
at 33.67%. Manufacture of Wines at 33.19%;
Manufacture of Malt, Liquors and malt
at 30.61% and Manufacture of macaroni,
noodles, couscous and similar farinaceous
products at 29.79% also display high GVA%
level. The low percentage of GVA of 3.91% in
the case of Vegetable and Animal Oils and
Fats products, 7.62% in respect of Grain Mill,
8.03% in the case of prepared animal feeds
and about 8.87% in the case of Dairy Products

is higher than the average in processing and
preservation of Fish at 16, Grain Mill products
at 15 and Meat sub-sector at 11. However,
these very sub-sectors show low levels of
GVA as well. The percentage of GVA in these
sub-sectors thus needs to be increased so
that the bulk of the persons employed in
the food processing industries earn higher
remuneration as well. Prepared meals and
dishes and Bakery product sub-sector can
set the benchmark where employment
generation is as high as 19 persons per Rs.1

of GVA require their man-power to be trained
to increase productivity which together with
technological infusion would increase value
addition.

2.2 Stages of Processing of Food: food processing industries include

The Ministry of Food Processing
Industries does not deal with a few
food items such as coffee, tea, oilseeds,
sugar, spices and alcohol made from
molasses, as these items fall within
the purview of other Ministries under
the Allocation of Business Rules for
Central Ministries. Nevertheless, since
all edible, processed food from the
economic activity point of view, data
analyzed by this Ministry includes
the entire sector. Food processing
includes
(i) Manufactured Processes: If any
raw product of agriculture, animal
husbandry or fishing is transformed

42
 through a process [involving
employees, power, machines or
money] in such a way that its original
physical properties undergo a change
and if the transformed product is
edible and has commercial value,
then it comes within the domain of
Food Processing Industries.
(ii) Other Value-Added Processes: If there
is significant value addition (increased
shelf life, shelled and ready for
consumption etc.) such produce also
comes under food processing, even
if it does not undergo manufacturing
processes.
Chart 2.3
Supply Chain in Food Processing Industries
Procurement
Inputs Production
& Storage
From an analytical perspective, food
processing can be viewed as different
levels of processing – primary,
secondary and tertiary. Primary
Processing relates to conversion of
raw agricultural produce, milk, meat
and fish into a commodity that is fit
for human consumption. It involves
steps such as cleaning, grading,
sorting, packing etc. Food Processing
Industries usually deal with higher
levels of processing where new
or higher value food products are
manufactured. The different stages of
processing of food, are as depicted in
the flow chart 2.3 below:

2.6 Harvest and Post-harvest consumption”. The different

Losses of Agri-Produce
i. Despite the production of large
scale agriculture in India, food
inflation and food security issues
are major concerns for policy
makers in the country as they affect
the basic need for the citizens i.e.
to have sufficient, healthy and
affordable food. A nation-wide
study on quantitative assessment
of harvest and post-harvest losses
for 46 agricultural produces in 106
randomly selected districts was
carried out by Central Institute
of Post-Harvest Engineering &
Technology (CIPHET), Ludhiana.
The aforesaid study considers the
quantitative loss as the material
rendered “unfit for human
stages considered for assessment
of losses are harvesting, collection,
thrashing, grading /sorting,
winnowing /cleaning, drying,
packaging, transportation, and
storage depending upon the
commodity.
ii. The report of the study was
released in 2010. The study has
estimated that harvest and post-
harvest losses of major agricultural
produces at national level was of
the order of Rs.44,143 crore per
annum at 2009 wholesale prices.
iii. A repeat Study by CIPHET, Ludhiana
on the extent of harvest and post-
harvest losses of major agricultural
produces was conducted in 2015

53
 covering 45 agricultural crops of there are high losses in farm level
107 districts. operations.

iv. The Report on the repeat study was
submitted in March 2015. The study
has estimated that annual value of
harvest and post-harvest losses
of major agricultural produces at
national level was at Rs. 92,651
crore calculated using production
data of 2012-13 at 2014 wholesale
prices.
v. In the case of cereals, majority of
losses occur at farm level during
harvesting, collection and threshing.
Storage losses are only 0.75 – 1.21
percent. In the case of fruits also,
vi. It may be seen that most of the
wastage is occurring in fruits
and vegetables. With adequate
processing facilities, much of this
wastage can be reduced thus
providing remunerative price to
the producer as well as ensuring
greater supply to the consumer.
vii. A comparative Harvest and Post-
harvest losses of major agricultural
crops and commodities in India
as per Study Reports of CIPHET
released in 2010 and 2015 is given

i. The above illustration indicates the market. Food processors and

various factors which are likely to
increase the demand for processed
food in coming years. Programmes
to increase the output of Indian
agriculture without corresponding
investments in processing facilities
are likely to lead to a mismatch
resulting in rural distress and
decline in farmers’ income. The
most important step for improving
the bargaining capacity of the
farmer is to add value to his
produce. This will come about
if farmers are able to produce
ii. It is essential to build sustainable
according to the requirements
and standards demanded by the
retailers can provide the necessary
demand for the agricultural
produce and facilitate the flow of
market information, technology
and inputs to the farmer so that
they can tailor their output to
the needs of the market. In the
process the farmers will be able to
raise their own level of income and
employment. The consumer is also
likely to benefit as there will be
an increase in the supply of food
products with a longer shelf life.
supply chains, which will link the

56
 farmer to the processing and
marketing centers seamlessly. In
the absence of on–farm cooling
and grading arrangements and
slow development of cold chain
infrastructure, the farmer is
compelled to sell his produce to
the ‘Adathiya (Broker)’ without
waiting for a better price. If the
2.9 “MAKE IN INDIA” Programme
farmer is enabled to grade and
store his produce close to farm,
the farmer will be empowered to
demand and obtain a better price
from the processors and also add
value to his produce.
iii. Considerable investments are
required in rural infrastructure and
components of the supply chain
by way of grading and packing
centers, controlled atmosphere
storage facilities, reefer vans,
testing laboratories, etc., which
may not come from private sources
at this stage of the development
of the food processing industry.
It is therefore essential that
public investment is significantly
increased to fund these
components of rural infrastructure
to enable private enterprise to take
up the remaining, commercially
viable components of the supply
chain. This is borne out by the
experience of developed countries
where the state has stepped in to
build rural infrastructure in a big
way. Carefully calibrated subsidies,
innovative strategies, empowering
rural producers & consumers
through better awareness and
support to entrepreneurs in terms
of technology and training are
some of the ways in which this
Ministry has catalyzed growth in
this sector.
i) Food processing sector has been
identified as one of the priority
sectors under “MAKE IN INDIA”, an
initiative of Hon’ble Prime Minister
of India. With a view to attract
investment to this sector, Ministry
of Food Processing Industry has
been implementing schemes for
development of infrastructure
for promoting food processing
industries. Mega Food Parks with
common utility/facility like roads,
electricity, water supply, sewage
facility and common processing
facility like pulping, packaging,
cold storage, dry storage and
logistics are being promoted in
areas with strong agricultural
resource base. These parks
provide fully developed plots and
factory sheds to entrepreneurs on
long term lease basis where they
can set up food processing units in
“plug and play model”.
ii) Government has also declared
investment in Food Parks covered
under the Harmonized List
57
 of Infrastructure Sub-sectors
(HLIS)” vide Government of India
Notification dated 13th October
2014. Following this notification,
it is expected that Mega Food
2.10 Ease of Doing Business
Parks assisted by the Ministry will
be able to access to infrastructure
lending on easier terms.
iii) In the context of “MAKE IN INDIA”
campaign, the Ministry has been
disseminating information to
potential investors to attract
investment to the sector through
a dedicated “Investors Portal”
in which a range of information
like resource base, availability of
land, state specific policies, fiscal
incentives are shared with the
potential investors. The Ministry
is also collaborating with Invest
India to help the investors in terms
of locating joint venture partners,
extending hand holding services,
expediting regulatory approvals
and providing investors after care
services. The investor can also put
their query in the Investors portal
which is promptly attended to
by the Ministry for guiding the
investors.
iv) Ministry is also organizing World
Food India like mega international
events and Road shows to attract
FDI, including FDI in retail and
promote Make in India Initiative.
The World Food India 2017 was
58
organized in November 2017
and next edition of the event is
proposed to be held in New Delhi
in November 2019.
i) The Ministry is following
transparent selection process
and on line filing of claims for
the infrastructure development
projects of Mega Food Parks and
Cold Chain and all other schemes
under Pradhan Mantri Kisan
Sampda Yojana (PMKSY).
ii) A dedicated Investors’ Portal called
‘Nivesh Bandhu’ was launched
by the Prime Minister during the
inaugural function of the World
Food India 2017 to aid and
assist potential investors in the
food processing sector in taking
informed decision. This portal is
a ‘one stop information source’
on central and state government
policies, incentives offered, Agri-
Resources and infrastructure
facilities across the country.
iii) An investor friendly Mobile APP
– ‘Nivesh Bandhu’ was developed
and launched to enable the
investor to have access to relevant
information very conveniently
and from any destination from
their mobile proving to be game
changers for the investors in taking
informed investment decisions.

4.4. MEGA FOOD PARKS SCHEME
4.4.1 Brief of Scheme
Mega Food Parks Scheme, being
implemented since 2008, aims to
create a modern food processing
infrastructure for the processing
units based on a cluster approach
and on a hub and spoke model in a
demand driven manner. The scheme
intends to facilitate establishment of
an integrated value chain, with food
processing at the core and supported
by requisite forward and backward
linkages. The central processing
center is networked with the primary
processing centers and collection
centers located at the farm gate in
production areas. The broader idea
behind the scheme is to bring together
farmers, processors and retailers and
link agricultural production to the
market so as to ensure maximization
70
of value addition, minimization of
wastages and improving farmers’
income. The Scheme of Mega Food
Parks envisages a well-defined
agri/ horticultural- Processing zone
containing state-of-the art Processing
facilities with support infrastructure
and well-established supply chain.
4.4.2 Objectives
The objectives of the scheme are as
follows:
i. Provide modern infrastructure
for food processing units in the
country in selected clusters to
be identified in a demand driven
manner.
ii. Ensure value addition of
agricultural commodities including
poultry, meat, dairy, fisheries etc.
iii. Establish a sustainable raw material
supply chain for each cluster.
iv. Facilitate induction of the latest
technology.
v. Address the issues of small and
medium nature of processing
industries through a cluster
approach with stakeholders
managing the supply chain.
vi. Provide an institutional mechanism
for producers, processors and
retailers to work together to build
the supply chain.
4.4.3 Pattern of Assistance

4.5 Scheme for Integrated Cold
Chain (ICC) and Value Addition
Infrastructure
4.5.1 Brief of Scheme
In order to minimize the post-harvest
losses and enhance value addition
in the agricultural produce, Ministry
of Food Processing Industries has
been implementing the Scheme
of Cold Chain, Value Addition and
Preservation Infrastructure since
2008. Scheme provides for promoting
integrated and complete cold chain
facilities without any break from
the farm gate to the consumer to
reduce losses by improving efficiency
in collection of farmer produce,
storage, transportation and minimal
processing.  Both horticultural and
non-horticultural produce are eligible
for support under this scheme.
4.5.2 Components of the Scheme
  The scheme allows flexibility in project
planning with special emphasis on
creation of cold chain infrastructure at
farm level. Guidelines of the scheme
have been last revised on 18.01.2019.
The scheme has the following project
components: - 
(i) Farm Level Infrastructure in the
catchment area of the targeted
produce.
92
(ii) Distribution Hub
(iii) Refrigerated/Insulated transport.
iv) Irradiation facility.
  To avail financial assistance, the
applicant has to set up farm level
infrastructure as a mandatory
component and any one or both of
the components from (ii) and (iii)
above. In view of its functional nature,
the irradiation facility can be set up
as standalone component for the
purpose of availing grant under the
scheme. 
4.5.3 Pattern of Assistance 
i. For storage infrastructure including
Pack House and Pre cooling unit,
ripening chamber and transport
infrastructure eligible for grant-
in-aid @ 35% for General Areas
and @ 50% for North East States,
Himalayan States, ITDP Areas &
Islands, of the total cost of plant
& machinery and technical civil
works.
ii. For value addition and processing
infrastructure including frozen
storage/ deep freezers associated
and integral to the processing,
grant-in-aid @ 50% for General
Areas and @ 75% for North East
States, Himalayan States, ITDP
Areas & Islands.
 iii. For irradiation facilities grant-
in-aid @ 50% for General Areas
and @ 75% for North East States,
Himalayan States, ITDP Areas &
Islands.
Note: Other salient features of the
scheme are as under:-
(i)
The maximum grant-in-aid
permitted under the scheme is Rs.
10 crore per project.
(ii)
Cost norms of Mission for
Integrated Development of
Horticulture (MIDH) issued by
Department of Agriculture, Co-
operation and Farmers Welfare
are followed wherever available.
For facilities not covered under
MIDH guidelines, cost norms as
determined by the Ministry are
followed.
(iii) The implementation schedule for
the project as per the scheme
guidelines is 20 months in General
Areas and 24 months in North-
East States, Himalayan States, ITDP
Areas and Islands. A provision
has been made in the guidelines
for imposition of penalty in case
of failure to complete the project
as per the stipulated timeline. A
penalty of 1% of the quantum of
grant installment has been laid
down for each month’s delay
beyond the stipulated time line
subject to a maximum of 5% of the
installment amount.
(iv) As per the scheme guidelines,
cold chain and preservation
infrastructure can be set up
by individuals, groups of
entrepreneurs, cooperative
societies, Self Help Groups (SHGs),
Farmer Producer Organizations
(FPOs), NGOs, Central/State PSUs,
etc. with business interest in cold
chain solutions and also by those
who manage supply chain.
(v) The SC or ST promoter(s), as the
case may be, holding majority
stake in the implementing agency
/firm, will be treated as SC/ ST
proposals and will be treated at
par with NE States for the purpose
of extending benefits under the
scheme. For any change in the
constitution / composition of such
proposals, prior permission of
Ministry shall be required.

4.9 Scheme for Food Safety and
Quality Assurance Infrastructure
4.9.1 Improving quality of food products has
become as important as expanding
processing capacities, increasing level
of processing and overall production
of food products. Growth of middle
class, globalization etc. has brought
about increasing awareness about
quality and safety aspects which
have become non-negotiable. Today,
consumers are demanding quality
foods which is wholesome, hygienic,
healthy and food articles which are
free from harmful residues. Food
products are expected to meet the
stringent regulatory specifications to
promote exports as well as to restrict
low quality food product from entering
domestic market. To ensure that food
is wholesome, hygienic and healthy,
there is a need to have infrastructure
for testing of food products, enforce
Good Hygiene Practices (GHP) and
Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP)
at the production level as well as in
the entire supply chain of logistics,
storage, packaging processes and
marketing channel till food products
reaches the table of consumers
4.9.2 Quality Assurance Scheme
The Ministry is implementing a
Scheme for Quality Assurance with
the following components.
(i)
Setting up/Up-gradation of
108
Quality Control/Food Testing
Laboratories.
With the growth of the market for and
production of food products, there
is a need for availability of facilities
to (a) test domestic production in
order to ensure that it complies
with domestic standards as well as
international standards for exports;
and (b) test all imports coming into
the country to ensure that they are
of the requisite standard and such
products are not allowed to come
in from foreign markets. The level
of contaminants, additives, and
pesticide residues in food items are
required to be monitored regularly.
Therefore, a network of laboratories
assumes importance for carrying out
various tests required to support the
food safety regulatory activities and
help the food processing industry in
regard to quality control measures,
technical guidance, awareness
creation, etc. In order to address the
needs of the industry, the Ministry
has been implementing a scheme for
setting up / up-gradation of quality
control / food testing laboratories
with the following objectives:
(i) Analyzing the samples received
from processing industries and
other stakeholders;
(ii) Reducing the time taken for
analysis of samples by reducing
transportation time of samples;
 (iii)
Ensuring compliance with Plan period (i.e up to 31.03.2016)
international and domestic were being dealt with by the Indian
standards on food in case of Council of Agricultural Research
exports as well as imports; (ICAR) as per the earlier agreement
for implementation of the scheme. It
(iv) Establishing a surveillance system
has since been decided to implement
for monitoring the quality and

SCHEME OF OPERATION GREENS
 In pursuance to budget announcement for
the year 2018-19, MoFPI has launched a new
central sector scheme “Operation Greens
– A scheme for integrated development of
Tomato, Onion and Potato” with a budgetary
allocation of Rs.500 crore till 2019-20.
Operational Guidelines for the scheme of
“Operation Greens” were uploaded on the
website of the Ministry on 05/11/2018.
Advertisement regarding Invitation of
proposal under the scheme was issued in
Newspaper on 10/11/2018.
(a) Objectives of the Scheme:
Major objectives of “Operation
Greens” are given below:
i. Enhancing value realization of
Tomato, Onion and Potato (TOP)
farmers by targeted interventions
to strengthen TOP production
clusters and their FPOs, and
linking/ connecting them with the
market.
ii. Price stabilization for producers and
consumers by proper production
planning in the TOP clusters and
introduction of dual use varieties
through convergence with the
scheme implemented by Mission
for Integrated Development of
Horticulture (MIDH) and State
Governments.
iii.
Reduction in post-harvest
losses by creation of farm gate
infrastructure, development of
suitable agri-logistics, and creation
of appropriate storage capacity
linking consumption centres.
iv. Increase in food processing
capacities and value addition in
TOP value chain by creating firm
linkages with production clusters.
v. Setting up of a market intelligence
network to collect and collate
real time data on demand and
supply and price on regional and
seasonal basis to moderate and
check localized gluts of TOP crops.
(b) Strategies:
The Scheme has two-pronged
strategies as under:
(i) Short term: Price Stabilization
Measures
  During the glut situation, when the
prices fall below preceding 3-years
average market price at the time
of harvest, evacuation of surplus
production from the producing area
to the consumption centres will
be undertaken. NAFED has been
appointed as Nodal Agency for short
term price stabilization measures.
121
(ii) Long term: Integrated Value
Chain Development Projects
Pilot projects will be implemented in
selected 3 to 4 clusters for each TOP
crops in major producing States for
development of integrated value chain.
Farmers in the production clusters will
be organized into FPOs to manage  
production, post-harvest activities,
value addition and marketing of the
TOP produce. The capacity of the
existing FPOs will also be enhanced
through appropriate training and
professional management support.
(c) Pattern of Financial Assistance
i. For Price Stabilization Measures
50% of cost of transportation and
50% of cost of hiring appropriate
storage facilities will be provided
as subsidy at the time of harvest.
ii. For Integrated value chain
development projects The projects
will be eligible for grant-in-aid
at the rate of 50% of the eligible
project cost in all areas, subject
to maximum Rs. 50 crores per
project. However, in case where
(e) No. of Project
PIA is/are FPO(s), the grant-in-aid
will be at the rate of 70% of the
eligible project cost in all areas,
subject to maximum Rs. 50 crores
per project.
(d)  Implementing Agency
i. Short Term: Price Stabilization
Measures:
122
NAFED is the Nodal Agency (NA) for
implementing short-term measures
for price stabilization of TOP crops. It
will empanel eligible entities engaged
in transportation/ warehousing/
marketing of TOP crops, based on
transparent criteria.
ii. Long Term: For Integrated value
chain development projects -
Project Implementing Agencies,
(PIA)
State Agriculture and other Marketing
Federations, Farmer Producer
Organizations (FPO), Cooperatives,
Self-help groups, Companies, food
processors, logistic operators, service
providers, supply chain operators,

SETTING UP / MODERNIZATION OF
ABATTOIRS
The issue of ensuring hygienic meat production
in the country has to be seriously considered.
There is a need for setting up / modernization
of municipal abattoirs as the domestic meat
market is fed by abattoirs owned/licenced
by municipal bodies. These municipal
abattoirs generally lack modern equipment,
proper sanitation/hygiene, facilities for
scientific slaughtering, waste management
and pollution control. Quality and hygiene
levels are low resulting in contamination /
deterioration of meat, cruelty to the animals,
wastage of meat and pollution of adjoining
areas, water bodies and rivers. Modernization
of these abattoirs is needed for production
of clean, wholesome and hygienic meat .
The qualitative and quantitative capacities of
the abattoirs need to be upgraded besides
discouraging slaughtering in unauthorised
locations.
It is imperative that the slaughter houses
supplying meat to the domestic consumers
have the basic minimum requirements such
as proper lairage facilities, proper flooring,
carcass hanging/flaying facility, adequate
water supply and lighting with proper wastage
disposal system. This has to be ensured by the
State Governments and the local bodies since
most of the abattoirs are owned/operated
or licensed by the local bodies. However,
Government of India has to play its part in
assisting the States in fulfilling this objective.
Hence the Plan Scheme for establishing
new abattoirs and modernizing of existing
abattoirs was started in the 11th Five Year Plan.
6.1 Brief of Scheme:
a. The scheme provides for hygienic
slaughtering of animals for meat
process, better technology,
backward and forward linkages.
Financial assistance is provided,
subject to necessary approval, at
50% and 75% of the cost of plant
& machinery and technical civil
work in general and difficult areas
respectively, subject to a maximum
of Rs. 15 crore for each project.
Difficult areas include North
Eastern States including Sikkim,
Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal
Pradesh, Uttarakhand and ITDP
notified areas of the States.
b.
The scheme provides for
implementation of projects
with the involvement of local
bodies (Municipal Corporations
and Panchayats)/ Public Sector
Undertakings/ Co-operatives/
125
 Boards under Government and
has the flexibility for involvement
of private investors on PPP basis.
Regulatory functions continue
to be discharged through local
bodies. This enables the local
bodies to participate in the venture
and also be assured of a stream of
income.
c. Nine abattoir projects were
approved during the 11th Plan, out
of which 6 have been completed.
Viz,
i. Modern abattoir at Dimapur
implemented by Dimapur
Municipal Council,
ii. Modern abattoir at Vadgaon
Tandli, Ahmednagar, Maharashtra
implemented by Ahmednagar
District Goat Rearing & Processing
Co-operative Federation Ltd,
iii. Modern abattoir at 74 DC Dey
Road at Tangra, Kolkata, West
Bengal implemented by Kolkata
Municipal Corporation,
iv. Modern abattoir at Lalpani, Krishna
Nagar Shimla, Himachal Pradesh
implemented by Shimla Municipal
Corporation,
v. Modern abattoir at Amberpet
and a common rendering plant
at Chengicherla Hyderabad,
126
Telangana implemented by Greater
Hyderabad Municipal Corporation
(GHMC) and
vi. Modern abattoir of sheep and
goat at Kanke, Ranchi, Jharkhand
implemented by Ranchi Municipal
Corporation (RMC) and 3 on-going
projects are at Srinagar (Jammu
& Kashmir), Jammu (Jammu &
Kashmir) and Majhitar (Sikkim).
d. A proposal for upscaling of
the scheme was approved for
setting up of 25 new abattoirs
and modernization of 25 existing
abattoirs at a total project cost
of Rs 330.84 crore, inclusive of
committed liabilities in respect
of the on- going projects of 11th
Plan.
e. The scheme was implemented
in the central sector for first two
years of the 12th Five Year Plan
i.e. 2012-13 and 2013-14. The
scheme was transferred to State
Governments for implementation
through National Mission on Food
Processing (NMFP) for the rest of
the 12th Five Year Plan i.e. w.e.f.
01.04.2014, since most of the
proposals are from the Municipal
Bodies which are closely connected
to the State Governments.
 f. However, the National Mission
on Food Processing (NMFP) has
since been delinked from Central
Government Support with effect
from 01.04.2015, except for Union
Territories. 6.3 Salient features of the scheme:
g. Scheme for modernization of
abattoirs has not been included in
the list of Schemes under PRADHAN
MANTRI KISAN SAMPADA YOJANA
(PMKSY) approved by Government.
However, the committed liabilities
of this scheme amounting to around
Rs. 210 Crore have been accounted
for along with committed liabilities
of other infrastructure related
schemes.
6.2 Objectives of the scheme:
»» Scientific and hygienic slaughtering
of the animals.
»» Application of modern technology
for slaughter waste management
and pollution control.
6.4 Pattern of financial assistance:
»» More humane treatment of
animals/minimizing transportation Financial assistance (grant-in-aid) for
of animals.
»» Better by-product utilization/value
addition.
»» Providing chilling facility to prevent
microbial activity in slaughtered
animals.
»» Better hygiene, safety and retail
cold chain management.
»» Better forward linkage facility for
finished meat and meat products.
»» The scheme involves local
bodies (Municipal Corporations
and Panchayats)/Public Sector
Undertaking/Co-operatives/
Boards under Government and
will have flexibility for facilitating
involvement of private investors on
public- private partnership basis.
»» Land for abattoirs is being
contributed by the Panchayats/
Urban Local Bodies/State Agencies.
»» Professional agencies have been
engaged as Project Management
Agency (PMA) to assist the
Ministry in project appraisal,
implementation and monitoring of
projects.
setting up of new abattoirs is provided
at 50% of cost of plant & machinery and
technical civil work (TCW) in general
areas subject to maximum of Rs. 15
crore for each project. For difficult
areas, the ceiling is 75% of cost of plant
& machinery and technical civil work
subject to maximum of Rs 15 crore for
127
 each project. The difficult areas are
North East States including Sikkim,
Jammu & Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh,
Uttarakhand and ITDP notified area of
the States.
6.7 Status of project implementation
6.5 Approval of the Scheme
During financial year 2008-09, setting
up of 10 new abattoirs was approved
by the Government. Approval
Committee accorded approval for
setting up of 9 new abattoirs during
the year 2008-09 and remaining
one was approved during the year
2010-11. Subsequently due to non-
implementation, assistance approved
for one abattoir project has been
cancelled and therefore now approved
number stands at nine.
6.6 Upscaling of the Scheme
during 12th Plan
A proposal for upscaling of the scheme
was approved to cover setting up of
25 new abattoirs and modernization
of 25 existing abattoirs at a total
project cost of Rs 330.84 crore,
inclusive of committed liabilities in
respect of on-going projects of 11th
6.8 Financial Progress:
Plan.Operational Guidelines for the
Scheme were modified for 12th Five
Year Plan to widen the eligibility to
cover projects promoted by Public
Sector Undertakings, Co-operatives
128
and Boards under Government. This
amendment is intended to provide
flexibility to State Governments in
taking up abattoir projects.
The Ministry of Food Processing
Industries had taken up 10 projects
under this scheme during 11th Plan. Of
these, 9 projects have been promoted
by municipal bodies. Subsequently,
one abattoir project at Patna, Bihar
has been cancelled and therefore
now approved number stands at
Nine (09).The projects at Dimapur,
Ahmednagar, Kolkata, Shimla, Ranchi
and Hyderabad have been completed.

surplus agri-horti produce provides
opportunities to NER to process the

return to the growers. Food processing
benefits not only the growers of
agricultural produce but also creates
employment in service sector like
transportation, packaging, advertising
and marketing.

are under various stages of
implementation and remaining two
are in the process of final approval.
(ii) 12 Cold Chain projects have been
approved in NER - two each in
Assam, Manipur, Mizoram & Sikkim,
three in Nagaland and one project
in Arunachal Pradesh. Out of these,
6 projects have become operational.

Assam (one in Tezpur and four in
Guwahati), one each in Manipur
(Nambol), Nagaland (Kohima),
Sikkim (Gangtok) and Tripura
(Agartala) have been assisted
to create infrastructure for food
safety and quality testing.
