Union Minister Sarbananda Sonowal has approved a Rs. 284.19 crore project for the 'Development of an Export-Import and Domestic Agricultural Commodity-Based Processing and Storage Facility' at JNPA, Mumbai, to be executed in a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) mode.
This facility will address logistics inefficiencies and enhance India’s agricultural export and import capabilities.
The new facility will feature advanced storage options, including a frozen store, a cold store, and dry warehouses, and will support the export of agricultural products like non-basmati rice and spices, improving logistics and reducing wastage.
