Apart from the problems faced during the cultivation process, farmers also face the problem of rapid spoilage of the produce after harvesting. These problems are more common with fruit and vegetable crops. To overcome this problem, many steps are being taken by the government. The Bihar government is also taking these steps.
The Bihar government is going to give subsidies for the safe packing of vegetables and fruits. The government has decided to give a 50% subsidy on the total cost of setting up a pack house for safe packing. Let us tell you that it costs up to Rs 4 lakh to start a unit of these pack houses. 50% of this entire cost i.e. subsidy up to Rs 2 lakh will be given by the government.
