This is a testing blog. Agri Logistics with its various constituents is probably one of the oldest occupations in the world. In a nutshell, Agri-logistics in India can be divided into three major components: Procurement, Storage and Distribution. Agri logistics in its modern concept covers mainly agricultural output commodities and can be charactarised with various constituent operations post harvesting including sorting, grading, transportation from field to primary storage depots from there to main or secondary storage structures and then transportation to storage structures near consumption points. The product is then transported to primary processing centres before moving to retail distribution centres from where it reaches end consumers. While the farmers and retail consumers constitute the beginning and end of agri-logistics value chain, other stakeholders in the process include the farm labourers, the road transport vendors, rake handling contractors, labour force and contractors at warehouses, packing material suppliers which mainly constitute gunny bags and HDPE bag suppliers and intermediaries, the trader community and mandi boards comprising mainly of primary and secondary arhatiyas and their network, railway network, banking and other NBFC commodity funding organisations, collateral management agencies, commodity care and pest management agencies, assaying and warehousing agencies, security agencies and distribution channel comprising mainly of wholesale and retail trading organisations.
