## THE MINISTER OF STATE FOR FOOD PROCESSING INDUSTRIES (SHRI PRAHLAD SINGH PATEL)

(a)  to  (d): The  Ministry  of  Food  Processing  Industries  (MoFPI)  does  not  setup  any  food processing industries/ units/projects on its own. However, it is implementing a Central Sector umbrella scheme- Pradhan Mantri Kisan Sampada Yojana (PMKSY) for overall growth and development of food processing sector since 2016-17. Under component schemes of PMKSY, MoFPI provides mostly credit linked financial assistance (capital subsidy) in the form of grantsin-aid for setting up of food processing / preservation industries to eligible applicants selected through Expression of Interest issued from time to time on SAMPADA Portal.  PMKSY is not any region or state specific but demand driven and is implemented across the country including in the state of Odisha. The details of projects approved in Odisha under the component schemes of PMKSY are enclosed at Annexure .

Also as part of the Aatmanirbhar Bharat Initiative, MoFPI is implementing a Centrally Sponsored Scheme-PM  Formalisation of Micro Food Processing Enterprises  Scheme (PMFME) for providing financial, technical and business support for setting up/upgradation of 2 lakh micro food processing enterprises through credit linked subsidy during five years from 2020-21 to 2024-25 with an outlay of Rs. 10,000 cr.  Out of this, a total of 5201 units have been allocated to Odisha for five years.
