We are undertaking the development of an integrated horticulture project near Nagpur, India. The project is envisaged in an integrated framework, encompassing the entire chain in horticultural produce and processed fruit output in an inclusive development framework, with introduction and promotion of modern global technologies, mechanisation, efficient processes, which are accessible and affordable to farmers and stakeholders in a much larger project influence area, to bring in an overall development and prosperity in the region.
The objective of the project is to initiate the process of creation of a globally recognised cluster for horticulture produce and processed fruit, which involves a large section of population of the hinterland, thus bringing in all round prosperity and economic development in the region.
The project is envisaged to encompass the entire gamut of activities in the agriculture and food supply chain, which include farm development with modern support facilities for captive use as well as for use by farmers of the project influence area, creation of storage, preservation, packaging and marketing infrastructure, setting up of fruit processing units with focus on citrus fruits from the region with marketing in key international and domestic markets and setting up a cluster of fruit processing units, with modern common infrastructure and facilities.
