## ANSWER

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

(a): In  order  to  promote  and  ensure  overall  development  of  Food  Processing  Industries, Ministry of Food Processing Industries (MoFPI) has been incentivizing setting up/expansion of related infrastructure through its two Central Sector Schemes namely Pradhan Mantri Kisan SAMPADA Yojana (PMKSY) and Production Linked Incentive Scheme for Food Processing Industry (PLISFPI). MoFPI is also implementing a Centrally sponsored scheme namely PM Formalization of Micro Food Processing Enterprises (PMFME) scheme. All the three schemes are not region specific but demand driven and are implemented across the country including Konaseema district of Andhra Pradesh.

- (b) : The details of approved food processing units under the said three schemes of MoFPI in the state of Andhra Pradesh, district wise including in the district of Konaseema is given at Annexure-I.

(c): State/UT-wise allocation of funds are not made under PMKSY & PLISFPI. However yearwise total budget allocation & utilization of funds since 2022-23 and details of Centre share of funds  under  PMFME  scheme  since  2022-23  released  to  Andhra  Pradesh  are  given  at Annexure-II.

(d): The details of operational food processing units under the said three schemes of MoFPI in the state of Andhra Pradesh, district wise including in the district of Konaseema is given at Annexure-III.

(e): The Capacity Building component of the PMFME Scheme envisages providing 24 Hours/ 3  Days,  Food  Processing  Enterprise  Development  Programme  (EDP)  Training  for  all applicants of individual and Group category (SHGs/ FPOs/ Cooperatives) recommended for availing credit linked grant by District Level Committee (DLC) and 8 hours/1day training for SHG beneficiaries of Seed Capital under PMFME scheme. So far, 7,534 beneficiaries have been  trained  in  the  State  of  Andhra  Pradesh  including  109  beneficiaries  from  Konaseema district.

(f): The details of employment generated through operational food processing units under the said three schemes of MoFPI in the state of Andhra Pradesh, district wise including in the district of Konaseema is given at Annexure-IV.

(g): PMKSY and PMFME schemes are demand driven in nature and applications are invited online. Projects are approved, as per respective scheme guidelines.

(h): One District One Product (ODOP) approach under PMFME Scheme has been adopted to reap the benefit of scale in  terms  of  procurement  of inputs,  availing  common  services  and marketing of products. It provides the framework for value chain development and alignment of support infrastructure. The ODOP are identified by States / UTs based on the agriculture production, raw material availability, perishability of the product etc.

Coir is  a  natural  fiber  and  not  a  food  product  and  thus  not  covered  under  PMFME Scheme. However, Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade has identified 'Coir' as ODOP products in Konaseema district of Andhra Pradesh.
