Rahul Gandhi's constituency Amethi to have first mega food park of UP

Written By Unknown on Senin, 07 Oktober 2013 | 08.20

NEW DELHI: Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi's constituency - Amethi - will have the first mega food park of Uttar Pradesh. The park, whose foundation stone was laid at Jagdishpur on Monday, will have 35 industrial units having capacity to give direct and indirect employment to about 30,000 persons.

Besides creating a market for raw material, the park is expected to act as a model for the entire region, leading to fast growth of food processing in the state. It will have modern infrastructure and world-class facilities for food processing industries.

After laying the foundation stone of the Mega Food Park, the Union minister of state for agriculture and food processing Charan Das Mahant said that the move will help small and medium sized entrepreneurs, self-help groups and farmer-groups to set up food processing industries.

"This will create a market for raw material and in turn provide better prices to farmers for their produce", he said while re-affirming Centre's support to the food processing sector in UP.

Mahant said, "Though the state produces a variety of food-grains, fruits and vegetables, the lack of infrastructural facilities deterred entrepreneurs from establishing food processing industries. The Park will fill up this void and act as a model for the entire region".

Known as 'Shaktiman Mega Food Park', it will be set up under the 'Scheme of Mega Food Parks' which aims at facilitating the establishment of a strong food processing infrastructure backed by an efficient supply chain.

This includes establishment of collection centers, primary processing centers, a central processing unit and cold chain infrastructure. The processing centers will have infrastructure required for processing, packaging, environmental protection systems, quality control labs and trade facilitation. These facilities will be shared by all industrial units in the food park.

The park, spread over 72 acres, will offer essential services like dry warehousing, cold storage, a farmer friendly bank and fully equipped education and business centers.
