The  PMKSY  has  seven components schemes viz; (i) Mega Food Parks; (ii) Integrated Cold Chain and Value Addition Infrastructure;  (iii)  Creation/Expansion  of  Food  Processing  &  Preservation  Capacities;  (iv) Infrastructure  for Agro-processing Clusters; (v) Creation of Backward and Forward Linkages (vi) Food Safety and Quality Assurance Infrastructure, (vii) Human Resources and Institutions.
