The 'Gola' grain storage facility in rural Odisha
The 'Gola' grain storage facility in rural Odisha

By Ashis Senapati

The gola is a traditional and eco-friendly storing facility, once a very common sight in rural Odisha. It is made out of bamboo, then slathered in mud and cow dung and topped with a thatched roof. Paddy and other grains are stored in them soon after harvesting. But, these silos are slowly vanishing.

Cold storage facilities could cut immense losses for apple farmers in Chamoli, Uttarakhand

By satyam kumar

In 2020-21, over 64,879.26 metric tonnes of apples and 3,67,309.04 metric tonnes of potatoes were produced in Uttarakhand, a large chunk of it in Chamoli district. But, due to a lack of cold storage units, farmers are forced to sell their produce at a very low rate. Setting up cold storage facilities can cut down post harvest losses and increase farmers' income.

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

By Ashish Anand

Bihar's Muzaffarpur is a hub for vegetables and fruits. Cold storage units can go a long way in cutting down losses suffered by the traders and farmers, as demonstrated by the five metric tonnes cold storage unit running in Nwera village. 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.
