Background for KisanBandhu • Existing scenario is supply driven • The farmer is unaware of the market, produces something and sells in a mandi or to an agent and wants to get a fair price & immediate payment. • This must change. Need to create a system, where the farmer is made aware of the market demand and encouraged to produce to the requirements of the buyer • The farmer should get right inputs ,Grow the right grade of produce (most optimal grade), trade it (double auction mechanism), and sell it to get maximum Net income • The idea is to transform the way agriculture works, create a business orientation among the farming community • Thus we propose – “Corporatization of Villages” N.Viswanadham

Retail: The Indian advantage • There is a huge opportunity in this space • 12 M retail outlets employing 21 M ( 7% of total work force) people • 100% FDI is not allowed for foreign companies. • Least saturated of global markets with small organized retail. • The least competitive of all global markets studied • Lower barriers of entry for big players • Tremendous market size in both Urban, and Rural areas, • Growth potential of 20-40% as in China • Retail is going turbulent with entry of big players N.Viswanadham
Rural Retail Flow Chart The Indian postal service can take advantage of its vast network and logistical capabilities to transform itself into a profitable business and to bring a host of services to rural populations. N.Viswanadham
Conclusions • India provides huge opportunities for Food supply chain stakeholders • Retail, Food manufacturing are the Growth areas • Halal hub (Export to South-East Asia, Middle East), Vegetarian hub (20% of Indian population + overseas), Organic food hub (Europe and USA), Sea food hub N.Viswanadham
