Beschreibung
The modern world has realised that rural development is very essential for the overall development of the country as well as the community. India is a land of villages and 74.35% of its population lives there. Agriculture is still the main occupation of people in rural areas. Relying only on agriculture is likely to leads to problem of unemployment and underemployment on a large scale. The solution to this problem lies in making the rural economy multi-sectored. The focus of this book is on the Food Processing Industry. India is described to as a sleeping giant in the field of food processing, as it is a second largest producer of fruits and vegetables in the world, next to China. The food processing industry has the potential of changing the face of India. This book attempts to understand and study the various challenges that confront the growth and development of the food processing industry. It can serve as a useful guide to both academicians and entrepreneurs. For academicians this book can ignite new ideas for carrying out research and for entrepreneurs there is a wonderful opportunity to embark on a profitable new venture.
