It has been decided by the Shivraj Singh government of Madhya Pradesh state to provide small cold storage to the farmers at the block level. According to the news, farmers will be given help for cold storage for maintenance of horticulture crops, so that the farmers themselves will be able to preserve their produce.
It is worth noting that at present the government helps to install cold storage with capacity of 5000 MT near big mandis and at district level. But after this new decision, now small farmers will also get the benefit.
