Cold Chain Infrastructure: A Critical Need for India’s Food Security

Image
Title -  Cold Chain Infrastructure: A Critical Need for India’s Food Security Introduction India produces a large amount of food every year, yet a big share never reaches consumers in good condition. Fruits, vegetables, dairy, meat, and fish often spoil before they can be sold, mainly because they are not stored or transported at the right temperature. This loss affects food availability, raises prices, and reduces the income earned by farmers and producers. Cold chain infrastructure plays a key role in fixing this gap. By keeping food fresh from farms to markets, cold storage and refrigerated transport help reduce waste and protect quality. As India’s population grows and climate patterns become less predictable, strong cold chain systems are becoming essential for food security, stable supply, and better use of agricultural output. Understanding Cold Chain Infrastructure in India Cold chain infrastructure refers to the systems that keep perishable products at the right temperatur...

Electric Fleets and Smart Warehousing: The Future of Sustainable Logistics in India

Image
Title -  Electric Fleets and Smart Warehousing: The Future of Sustainable Logistics in India India’s logistics sector is changing fast. Rising fuel costs, delivery delays, and pressure to cut emissions have pushed businesses to rethink how goods move and where they are stored. At the same time, government initiatives like the  National Logistics Policy  and  PM GatiShakti  are encouraging better planning, lower costs, and cleaner operations across the supply chain. Two changes stand out in this shift. Electric fleets are becoming common in last-mile delivery, while smart warehouses are replacing manual storage with data-driven systems. Together, they are helping logistics players reduce costs, improve efficiency, and lower environmental impact.  This article explains how electric vehicles and smart warehousing are shaping sustainable logistics in India, the benefits they offer, and the challenges that still need to be addressed. https://www.phdcci.in/blog/e...

Problems like low farm incomes, uneven productivity, climate stress, and limited access to markets continue to dwell. While government schemes have improved coverage, public resources alone are not enough to solve these issues at scale.
