Facts

• Annually over 2.6 billion Tons of Food Grains, Pulses & Oil Seeds are grown and stored along the Chain from producers to Consumers, treating with harmful chemicals to protect the food grains from infestation.
• In the absence of scientific storage facility we loose almost 30% of our produce, that’s about one third of food grains produced is lost.
• As per estimates globally we lose nearly 500 million tons of food grains every year because of infestation, fungal attack & rotting.
• Which results in excess seeding of nearly 250 million hectares of land every year.
• That is nearly 20% more food grains would have to be produced to cater to the demand every year.
