PM Modi inaugurates projects worth Rs 1,000 crore in Gujarat
A large number of small farmers in the country will be directly connected with the food-processing and agriculture value chain linked with exports, as the government is focusing on the formation of 10,000 new farmer produce organisations (FPOs), said PM Narendra Modi, at the inaugural ceremony of Rs 1,000 crore worth of dairy projects, at Sabar Dairy, near Himatnagar in north Gujarat.
Over the past two years, the government has issued more than 3 crore kisan credit cards not only to farmers, but also to milk producers and fishermen across the country, the PM stated.
