## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATE FOR FOOD PROCESSING INDUSTRIES (SHRI RAVNEET SINGH)

(a) to (c): The Ministry of Food Processing Industries (MOFPI) is implementing a central sector umbrella scheme Pradhan Mantri Kisan Sampada Yojana (PMKSY). Under component schemes of PMKSY, Ministry provides financial assistance up to ₹15 crore, @ 35% of eligible project cost for projects in general area & @50% of eligible project cost for projects in Difficult Areas as well as for projects of SC/ST, FPOs & SHG, for setting up food processing industries. PMKSY is demand driven in nature and applications are invited through Expression of Interest (EoI) from all over India. The funds are not allocated/sanctioned/released state-wise under any of the component schemes of PMKSY.

Ministry  periodically  reviews  the  progress  of  the  projects  approved  under  the component schemes of PMKSY. Grants in aid/ subsidy is released to the Project Implementing Agencies (PIA) after verification of the documents submitted as prescribed in the applicable Scheme guidelines and inspection of the unit to verify the physical progress commensurate with the financial progress. The release of subsidy under PMKSY is on reimbursement basis only i.e. after actual incurrence of expenditure by the PIA. MOFPI also gets third party Impact Evaluation  studies  conducted  to  evaluate  the  effectiveness  of  the  component  schemes  of PMKSY on various parameters including farmers' income and post-harvest loss.

Under component schemes of PMKSY, 55 projects are approved in the State of West Bengal with the project cost of ₹955.03 crore and approved grants in aid/subsidy of ₹254.90 crore.  So  far,  ₹190.11  crore  has  been  released  to  these  55  projects.  State-wise  details  of approved grants in aid/subsidy and released grants in aid/subsidy is at Annexure.

(d): PMKSY was envisaged as a comprehensive package that will result in creation of modern infrastructure with efficient supply chain management from farm gate to retail outlet. It will not only provide a boost to the growth of food processing sector in the country but also improve the  capacity  of  food  processing  units  which  help  in  providing  better  returns  to  farmers, especially  in  the  rural  areas,  reducing  wastage  of  agricultural  produce,  increasing  the processing  level  and  enhancing  the  export  of  the  processed  foods.  So  far,  under  various component schemes of PMKSY a total of 1646 projects have been approved out of which 1087 are completed/operational, benefitting 3317538 farmers.
