This Budget is for long-term growth and fiscal consolidation. The Finance Minister has focused on farmers’ development and of raising farm productivity and production.

He has also proposed to support Agriculture Ministry’s organic farming scheme, “Paramparagat Krishi Vikas Yojan”, and recommended hassle-free agriculture credit to small and marginal farmers. All this will be beneficial for our economy and will ensure growth and development of the country.

He has also focused on challenges faced by the agriculture industry.

To augment this, the industry should focus on establishing scientific agri practices and ensure that best processes are built in post harvest agri logistics.

The need of the hour is to operate warehouses agnostic of infrastructure and weather pattern across any kind of agriculture crop. Industry players should now focus on recognising and adapting scientific practices which will help in a long run, just as SLCM has been practising since inception.
