M/s Farm Fresh Banana APJ Parupayya Theni
Farm Fresh banana ripening chamber is situated in the Theni near to fruit market. The proprietor ,Shri.APJ Parupayya s forefathers hailed from neighbouring district doing the fruit trading since their coming to Painavu 15 years back. Now they are well established and are leading buyers sellers in the private fruit market. When we have enquired about the production of Banana fruit they opined that area under banana is plenty and present prices are low. Progressive farmers requested for marketing arrangements.
PREPARATION FOR THE SESSIONS: After receiving the approvals for conducting trainings from National Centre for Cold Chain
Development (NCCD), we have contacted Agricultural Research stations,Banks Regional offices
Mandi Board,Fruit Ripening Chambers owners,fruit Traders,Horticulture Department ,the
response is overwhelming.
While the trainings were sanctioned by NCCD for 25 trainees per batch, the local response from
youth was more. At the registration time approximately 40- 50 candidates showed up to
participate. All the candidates preregistered and last minute showings are also allowed to
participate in the training.
AGENDA: EMPLOYMENT GENERATION
As this is the first program of its kind, unemployed learned skills suitable for running ripening
chambers. Owners of the Ripening Chambers promised to give employment to the trained
persons in due course of time.
These trainings are planned on written demand of owners of Ripening Chambers infrastructure,
who also assured employment opportunity to the trainees. The prospective employers ie:
ripening chamber owners allowed practical trainings in their facility and actively participated
with the trainees, and clear the doubts of trainees during the practical session.
It’s a dawn of new beginning the present generation is beginning to understand the importance
and benefits of the industry. We hope to see an upcoming change in due course of time.
Actual employment generated will be monitored and reported to the NCCD
FEEDBACK FROM AGRICULTURAL UNIVERSITY
Experts from the agricultural college , expressed the necessity for such program by
which sustainable livelihood can be created to the youth. This program helps in creating
awareness about the ill effects of carbide use besides raising the issue of safe and scientific
ripening chambers for fruits.
Youth who undergo this training program would be able to handle the ripening
chambers in scientific and systematic way. Moreover they themselves can successfully become
potential entrepreneurs by taking up ripening chambers as agriculture allied activity. Thereby
they are able to create employment and also become job providers rather than job seekers.
This program would help representatives of the ripening chambers to know the scientific
and systemic approach to handle their existing units. There by able to cut down the lapses in
handling and save the quality of the fruit and gain economical benefits.
The unskilled workers from the ripening chambers would be the best benefitted as they
able to understand the scientific principle behind every operation they use to perform earlier.
Even a small skill they learnt during the program would help them to handle the existing unit
with more science and precision. This in long run would help the unit to gain efficiency and
quality output for sustainable economical benefits which would trigger entrepreneurial activity in
this direction which has direct bearing on employment generation.
FEEDBACK FROM BANKERS AND INDUSTRY EXPERTS
Soundira Murty ,suggested the entrepreneurs to come forward to take up ripening
infrastructure for which he is ready to allot space in the Market Yard.. He also stated that
ripening chamber technology is first of its kind in Painavu, they haven’t got such sort of
proposal till today, if any ripening chamber proposal with proper paper work is submitted to
bank will be encouraged and getting sanction of loan from the Bank.
Murugesan requested for conduct of more number of such trainings in view of demand,
and requested to take up ripening chambers as many as possible in the coming mango season.
He also said that many farmers are intending to go for Ripening Chamber construction.
FEEDBACK FROM TRAINEES
The participants are very happy for the skill development and the initiative taken by the
NCCD to educate and train those regarding ripening, Government help to public regarding
ripening chambers which is not known to most of the public.
They suggested that more such training programs should be conducted in different
places of Maharashtra which will enable people to know about natural ripening and help them
to do natural ripening using ripening chambers with the government help.
The participants expressed that government should implement the ban on carbide usage
in ripening of fruits.
They opined that government organizations Self Help groups (SHG’s), Consumer
protection Associations should be involved in conducting campaigns in educating the general
public about harmful effects of carbide and advantages of ethylene ripening. Many activists
attended the program and expressed that a protest against carbide ripening should made at
Painavu for which they need support from the government.
An approach must also be initiated for awareness, for a basic start by printing of
pamphlets and posters in market areas for bringing awareness. The training program is
practical hands on experience and very helpful in understanding the operations of ripening
chamber and how the Government is actively available to support the cause.
FEEDBACK FROM FACULTY
The faculty opined that the general public should be educated that ethylene ripening is
similar to natural ripening and hence the point may be highlighted.
To encourage purchasing ethylene treated fruits incentive for ethylene treated fruit may
be sanctioned by government NHB/NHM to the penultimate consumer.
The faculty is very happy for the different category of public present which is covering
all segments of people such as.
Unemployed youth.
Traders.
Farmers.
Entrepreneurs.
Agripreneurs.
