Marketing infrastructure
• A.O. Hirschman- four characteristics of infrastructure
i) the services facilitate economic activity
ii) the services are public goods because of economic externalities
iii) the services cannot be imported;
iv)investments tend to be indivisible or lumpy
• In this context, marketing infrastructure consists of a combination of national assets, sustaining the addition of place, time and form utilities

Indian Agriculture has made rapid strides since independence
• From food shortages and import
to self-sufficiency and exports.
• From subsistence farming
to intensive and technology led cultivation.
• Today , India is the front ranking
producer of many crops in the world.
• Ushered in through the
green, white, blue and yellow revolutions
Dr. R. R. K, Dy. A.M.A., MSTC, Hyderabad
India has huge supply advantages due to diverse agro-climatic conditions and wide ranging raw material base…
• 52% cultivable land compared to
11% world average
• All 15 major climates in the world exist in
India
• 46 out of 60 soil types exist in
India
• 20 agri-climatic regions
• Largest livestock population
• Largest producer of milk
• Largest producer cereals
• Second-largest fruit and
vegetable producer
• Among the top five producers worldwide of rice, wheat,
groundnuts, tea, coffee, tobacco, spices, sugar and oilseeds.
• Sunshine hours and day length
are ideally suited for round the year
cultivation
Significant Opportunity
India as a global sourcing hub
Food is the largest consumption category in India...

Significant Opportunity
India as a huge Consumer Market
Huge wastage across the supply chain leads to lower level of processing and hence low value addition…
Field Losses (Pest, Diseases, Rodents etc))
Pre-Processing(e.g. inefficient harvesting, drying, milling)
Transport(e.g. spillage, leakage)
Storage(e.g. technical deficiencies)
Processing & Packaging(e.g. excessive peeling, washing)
Marketing(e.g. spoilage, rotting in stores)

The First Ever National Agriculture Policy was announced in July 2000 has indicated a nine-fold package of policy initiatives to achieve the objectives
• Development of Sustainable agriculture• Food and Nutritional security• Generation and Transfer of Technology• Improvement of input efficiency• Provision of incentives for agriculture• Promotion of Investments in agriculture
• Strengthening of institutional infrastructure• Better risk management• Introduction of Management Reforms
The expert committee, Government of India (June 2001) made an assessment of investment requirement of Rs.268742 crore for investment in agricultural marketing Infrastructure.
The integrated pack houses catering to farms in respect of regions around 5000-10,000 hectare for washing, sorting, grading , packing, cold storing etc.
E-trading for direct marketing through kiosks in the market yard
Telephones:- only 59% of villages covered(2001) , 3.5% tele-density against world average of 16, target is 15% by 2015. Examine WCL technology.
Rural connectivity:- Only 47.83% of villages covered till mid 90s. Av. road length is 4 km. To connect each village with main road. Investment requirement is Rs 74000 cr.
Physical facilities in regulated markets:- auction platforms, shops and godowns etc; Rs 6026 crore during next 10 years
Recommendations
Specialised markets :- fruits and vegetables, 241 places in the country; 970 crore.
Farmers’ markets:- Apni Mandis in different states. Should be in every district at least.
Rural periodic market- 27294 RPMs; investment requirement is Rs. 2146 cr.
Storage/ warehousing:- 52 million tonnes storage capacity available , need for creating storages for additional 20 million tonnes now stored in the form of CAP( Covered and Plinth ), investment requirement of Rs.5400 crore
Cold storages:- 135 Million tonnes of fruits and vegetables, 30% post harvest losses, during next ten years cold storage capacity of 45 million tonnes for investment of Rs.27000 cr.
