PREPARATION FOR THE SESSIONS:

After receiving the approvals for conducting trainings from National Centre for Cold Chain Development

(NCCD), we contacted Mr. Mukesh Aggarwal, secretary, KPGI College to give wide publicity about the

training programme to the students.

The existing ripening unit in Agra was requested to allow for the field visit and were also requested to share

their entrepreneurial journey with the trainees. Mr Anurag Aggarwal, MD, Natural Fruits Pvt Ltd. co-ordinated

effectively with the organizers to ensure participation by all concerned in the industry.

The related companies, agriculture universities and bank representatives were contacted for the lectures to be

given during the training. The faculty of KPGI College was also very enthusiastic to participate in the training

program.

AGENDA: GENERATION OF EMPLOYMENT AND

ENTREPREURIAL OPPORTUNITIES; AWARENES

ABOUT HARMFUL EFFECTS OF CARBIDE

The objective of the program was to:

Train Human resources in banana ripening technology

Educate the trainees about the harmful effects of Carbide ripened fruits

Educate the trainees in real time conditions to give them hands o experience

Promotion of standards, scientific procedures and best practices in banana ripening.

Assist in providing employment opportunities to the trained candidates through our existing network of

promoters of banana ripening chambers.

Educate the potential entrepreneurs about

o The financial viability of setting up a Banana ripening chamber.

o The Technical standards on Banana Ripening established by Ministry of Agriculture.

o New MIDH guidelines and financial assistance available

o Financial assistance available from Indian Banks

Provide feedback concerning future training needs, and participate in the design of annual training

activities.

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. The trainees

were management graduates who were made aware about the benefits of entering the field of agriculture.

Many of them had traditional farms in their native places. They have been registered in our database and will

be in touch for the preparation of DPRs etc.

Actual employment generated will be monitored and reported to the NCCD

FEEDBACK FROM UNIVERSITY

Mr K P Aggarwal, Chairman, KPGI College was contacted by the organizers and invited to inaugurate the

training programme. He expressed the necessity for such program by which sustainable livelihood can be

created to the youth and appreciated the efforts being made by the government and NCCD. According to him,

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. Mr K P Aggarwal actively co-ordinated conduct of the programme.

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 talking up

ripening chambers as agriculture allied activity. Thereby they are able to create employment and also become

job providers rather than job seekers.

The University was happy to know about the financial assistance and the impetus available from the

Government to build the interest in the Agriculture sector of the country. He encouraged the students to take up

entrepreneurship seriously as the opportunities are immense and they would help the economy of the country

to grow.

He applauded the efforts of NCCD for organizing such trainings all across the country.

FEEDBACK FROM TRAINEES

The participants expressed happiness about the training programme and found it very useful. The participants

felt that the information given by experts and faculty was a great learning experience. The participants were

unaware about the fact that the most good looking fruits in the market are ripened by Carbide.

Small stickers on the fruit trays stating that the fruits have been naturally ripened and calcium carbide has not

been used as done by one of the ripening units in Agra should be given lot of publicity. They were happy to

know that Natural fruits had launched their brand of Natural Banana.

The participants appreciated the contents of Dockets printed by the organizers for giving publicity to the

training programme. A summary of the harmful effects of carbide ripened fruits, aspects of ethylene ripening

and schedule of training were given in the Dockets.

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. The efforts made by

NCCD in organizing the programme at Agra were appreciated by all.

FEEDBACK FROM FACULTY

The faculty was very keen to spread awareness about the harmful effects of carbide and encourage

people to use natural ripening.

They appreciated the efforts of the government and NCCD.

They wanted the training to have a mention about the proven ways of identifying carbide ripened fruits.
