In developing countries more than 40% of the food losses occur at post
harvest and processing levels, while in industrialized countries, more than
40% of the food losses occur at retail and consumer levels. Food waste at
consumer level in industrialized countries (222 million ton) is almost as high
as the total net food production in sub Saharan Africa (230 million ton).

Regulation through technical standards
• TSC submitted standards in February 2010, revision workshop14.10.2011
• Amount of subsidy linked to the level of technology employedthrough the following five technical standards notified
- Cold storages for storage of fresh horticulture products which do not requirepre-cooling
- Multi-commodity Cold storages for short term and long term storage of freshhorticulture products which require pre-cooling and varying storagerequirements.
- Control Atmosphere (CA) Storages: Active modified atmosphere systems,control of one or more gases (Oxygen, Nitrogen, Carbon dioxide) within anenclosed space, is a Non-chemical process.
- Scientific Fruit Ripening Units
- Specialized Transport Vehicles including insulated and or refrigerated transportvehicles for perishable food items including fresh fruits & vegetables.

Energy Saving
• Power consumption in most projects 0.16
unit/day/MT (for 5000MT store) against ideal of
0.18-0.20 unit/day/MT, against 0.14 ideal
• 10 -15% energy saving, with automation
• Weight loss reduced 8 -10% to 2.3% presently
• Quality of the produced improved Use of Automation
like VFD, PLC especially in CA Store.
• Change of trend for automation
• Standards help in selection of equipment

Observations
• Time taken in chamber loading to first temperaturerecording: 4 days
• Initial recorded chamber temperature: 13.5 degree C
• Initial recorded product temperature: 16.5 and 16.7 degree C
• Date of chamber attaining holding temperature of 1 +/- 10%degree C; 4 April '11
• Date of produce attaining holding temperature of 1+/- 10%degree C; 4 April '11
• No. of days from date of sealing in produce attaining desiredholding temperature: 8 days
• Slope of Time - Temperature curve is indicative of smoothcooling as captured by the probes; there is no rise in producttemperature either, however, material in certain pockets maybe watery causing foul smell during inspection on 27 April'11, low temperature may not have allowed its spread.

Infrastructure
• For Integrated Cold Chain, Value added Centers, PackagingCenter and Irradiation Facilities
• Infrastructure facilities without any break, from the farm gateto the consumer.
• Salient Features
a) Minimal Processing Centre at the farm level and this centreis to have facility for weighing, sorting, grading waxing,packing, pre-cooling, Controlled Atmosphere (CA)/Modified Atmosphere (MA) cold storage, normal storage andIQF.
b) Mobile Pre-cooling vans and reefer trucks
c) Distribution hubs with multi product and multi CA/MAchambers cold storage/ variable Humidity chambers, packingfacility, CIP Fog treatment, IQF and blast freezing

Prospect for cold chain development in
the next decade

Availability of Cold Storages
• India has 6,488 cold storage with a cumulative installed capacity of approximately 30
million Metric Tons
• More than 30% of the cold storage units (~10 mill tons) have been built in the previous
10 years and reports states another 30+ million tons capacity is to be built
• 12th Five year plan target 40 lakh MT for cold chain infrastructure & reefer transport

The gap in cold storage capacity in
various states
• Cold Storage Requirement: 611.30 lakh MT
• Present Capacity: 242.98 lakh MT
• Gap: 368.32 Lakh MT

• 12th Five year plan target 40 lakh MT for cold chain
infrastructure & reefer transport

PHM-Cold Store Integration
(Value Chain)
Most of the cold stores are stand alone units (84%), only 16%being part of a network (value chain). Transport services were notprovided by 80% of the cold storage units. Of the 20% thatprovided transportation, 52% had an outsourced asset base.

High Operating Expenditure will see change
• About 28% of the total expenses for cold storages in India is
accounted for by energy expenses compared to only 10% in
the West
• About 30-35% of the losses can be reduced by transporting the
freshly harvested fruits and vegetables in refrigerated
containers or in suitable containers, crates etc.
• investment costs in the back-up systems of cold storages
further makes the setting up of cold storage difficult, unviable
and uneconomical
• Alternate sources of non-conventional energy to be tapped

Role of Govt. in development process

Govt. policy interventions to develop
integrated Cold Chain
• No Clear cut policy on cold chain development, presently
• Need for Adoption of modern Technology in WarehousingBusiness Model of Cold Chain Infrastructure
• Enforcement of Technical Standards for Specialized / ReeferTransport System as regulatory tools for claiming subsidies
• Generating minimum critical mass of Skilled Man-Power
• Creating synergy for Indian produce and institutions
• Specialized Purpose Vehicle (SPV) for Cold Chain LogisticsInitiative
• National Centre for Cold Chain Development (NCCD)activation

Compliance cost and benefit to economy
- Pack house, Ropeways, Conveyor belts etc: 400
-Cold storage with mezzanine floors: 2,400
-Advance Cold storages: 640
-CA Storages: 1,440
-Onion storage: 750
-Refrigerated vans: 500
-Multi-modal transport system for horticulture produce: 100
-Fruit Ripening Chambers: 800
• Total: 7,030 (Rs. Crores in 12th Plan Working Group Report)
• Investment of about Rs 7,000 crore to go upto Rs 18,000crores, on the conservative estimates
• Sectors such as meat, fish, poultry, dairy products,confectionery and pharmaceuticals to double to Rs 40,000crores

Socio - Economic Impact of Cold Chain
• Farming Community getting better price encouragedtheir bargaining power
• Availability of large period of fruit like Apple 9months, Carrot & Lemon 5-6 months in onionthrough out of the year
• Diversification and improved quality of processedpotato and seed potato
• Wide verities of F&V imported through cold chain
• Enhancement of processing industry raw material andLCC

Synergy with other Institutions
• Indian Research Centers: CPRI (Potato Storage), CISH
(Mango Protocols) helped. ISHRAE, ASHRE can
provide inputs for critical areas
• International: GCCA for basic concepts & conditions
through WFLO, IARW, IART. India member to IIR,
Paris. GeorgiaTech Cold Chain Management & logistics
Courses; Cold chain management, Assessment and Audit,
Strategies for Successful handling of Fresh Produce,
Integration.
• Integration through Knowledge sharing and awareness by
CII, FICCI etc.

Possibility for generating synergy• Firming up critical storage condition for fresh Fruits &
Vegetables for Indian conditions taking for to accountlocally produced varieties of F&V and agro-climaticcondition; so far we have been adopting WFLO standardswithout fine tuning them for Indian conditions.
• Economically viable technology solutions in terms ofintegrated cold chain for tropical fruits like mangoes,banana and mandarin; so far cold chain technologysolutions are, generally, not fitting into economics of trade
• HRD for all levels of industry – may be with help ofexisting institutions.
• Bring cold stores under Warehousing RegulatoryAuthority system for credit receipts (initially apple, potato,spices etc)
