SHOPIAN, Dec 12: The Department of Horticulture Planning and Marketing, Shopian today organised a distribution function at Aglar Shopian in order to hand over the keys of 2 Reefer Trucks to beneficiaries of the district under the Holistic Area Development Programme (HADP).
The Deputy Commissioner (DC) Shopian, Mohammad Shahid Saleem Dar presided over the function and handed over the keys of trucks procured by beneficiaries with substantial financial support of the government.
Each Reefer Truck has a capacity of 26 MTs, and is a recent intervention in post harvesting management initiatives capable of transporting fruits and vegetables long distances with inbuilt controlled atmosphere.
The services of these CA trucks are increasing in demand for the local Cold Chain Industry for long distance transport keeping in view they enhance the shelf life and profitability of the fruit.
Under HADP, the government provides 75% subsidy on each unit costing 25 lac under the component ‘Strengthening of Agricultural Marketing- Project 4’ for providing logistics support to the fruit industry.
The DC on the occasion appreciated the department for the feat and appealed to others, especially unemployed youth to take the benefits of livelihood and employment generation schemes for their economic upliftment.
The event was also attended by AMO, HP&M and DIO Shopian along with other officials of the department and beneficiaries. |
