Do you have an innovative solution to reduce food loss and waste across the post-harvest value chain?

Affordable, small-scale and innovative solutions near farmgate, solving for:

- Loss due to conventional non-mechanized threshing, cleaning, and/ or winnowing techniques;
- Improper handling of the produce;
- Perishability due to ineffective drying and moisture management practices.

Cost-effective, highly efficient, modular, and multi-crop solutions solving for:

- Inaccessibility and inadequacy of existing storage infrastructure;
- Absence of decentralized storage infrastructure near farmgate;
- Absence of humidity, temperature control, real-time monitoring & quality control mechanisms in existing infrastructure;
- High capital expenditure and operational costs of cold storage systems coupled with lack of affordable access to finance
- Lack of affordable pre-cooling services near farmgate.

Affordable and efficient solutions solving for:

- Absence of aggregation and pick up solutions for first mile transport and distribution services from farmgate;
- Lack of cold transportation solutions and contamination of fresh produce due to heat & humidity.

Easy-to-use, small-scale, efficient, multi-functional, end-to-end processing and value add solutions solving for:

- Lack of access to mechanized primary processing solutions near farmgate;
- High capital expenditure and operational costs of food processing and value add technologies, coupled with lack of access to finance.

Tech-driven solutions solving for:

- Lack of access to organized and consistent markets, causing small and marginal farmers to sell their produce at lower rates;
- Inability of farmers to make data-backed decisions due to unavailability of real-time market price and demand supply information

Affordable bio-tech innovations solving for:

- High perishability of fresh produce across the food value chain due to early ripening, microbial growth and pest-attacks;
- Inefficient packaging, reducing the quality and shelf-life of fresh produce.

Innovative technologies solving for:

- Lack of optimum utilization of agriculture waste generated at the farmgate, and food waste generated at APMC’s, modern retailers and HORECA establishments;
- Limited discoverability of food waste generated at APMCs and HORECA establishments for collection and value generation
