Bihar: Solar powered cold storage facility is helping small traders in Muzaffarpur minimise their losses

All its operations have been digitalised through a mobile application. A similar story is unfolding in Himachal Pradesh, where apple farmers are benefitting from the cold storage and shelf-life monitoring, which were not so accessible earlier.
