Consequently, farmers have remained dependent on the vagaries of nature and suffer from adverse situations like low yield, crop failure, drought, floods, and stressed pricing from time to time.

COMMODITIES
The agriculture commodities market in India forms an important component of India’s economy. The market is highly fragmented and faces major challenges in marketing, storage, and distribution. Moreover, given the volatility of the commodity prices, the farmer does not get remunerative prices for his/her produce. In order to bring about a semblance of order in the volatile commodities market, both state and central governments have initiated a set of reforms from time to time.

TRAINING AND CAPACITY BUILDING
Creating sustainable growth avenues in the agribusiness and rural sectors needs the scaling of services and building of capacities. These include areas like warehousing, forward markets, agriculture marketing, rural godowns, community health, green infrastructure, agriculture financing, transport, schools, sports facilities and so on. The farming sector faces seasonal distress due to a lack of suitable warehousing and downstream cold chain facilities. As a consequence, agriculture produce often does not reach the market and gets spoiled when exposed to the elements.
TRUAGRICO helps companies, NGO’s or governments to set up the cold chain and warehousing facilities to prevent spoilage and improve the quality of food. Moreover, we help entrepreneurs to meet the growing global demand for food by building new or augmenting existing warehousing facilities. We provide training to the stakeholders in streamlining the delivery mechanism, enhancing efficiencies, improving productivity, and achieving ROI.
Setting up the above facilities leads the farmer to get suitable prices for his/her produce and ensures savings for the end consumers. We, at TRUAGRICO, offer expertise drawn from our years of experience to the government agencies, private sectors, and NGOs to set up infrastructure facilities in a number of areas. The types of facilities include food parks, agri-markets, and integrated cold chains among others. We facilitate the capacity augmentation of existing rural infrastructure by implementing projects. The implementation process involves the conduct of feasibility studies, bidding, technical inspection, and selecting the operating partners.
TRUAGRICO assists various government and non-government departments in preparing well-researched and highly relevant training modules pertaining to policy development, schemes of central and state governments in agriculture and rural development. We provide training programs for food and agribusiness entrepreneurship and help them to set up a successful business in the domain of agribusiness.
