Why it exists
To resolve the structural problems of the rural economy — opaque pricing, post-harvest loss and the compressed smallholder share of value.
The Mission
Project Shokkhom Explained
Why it exists, what it does, and how it differs from everything before it.

The mission, in four movements
What it does
Procurement → processing → distribution → export, with the farmer participating as a co-owner of the chain.
How it is organised
Master Company → Constituency Krishi Companies → Krishi Shokkhom Kendras, from national scale to the Union Parishad.
How it differs
Equity ownership for the farmer — not merely price intervention. The farmer holds a stake, not just a slip.
The chain, rebuilt
From the Kendra counter to the global buyer
Every transaction is transparent, electronically graded and digitally paid. Every tier issues compliant invoices and files statutory returns — formalising the rural economy as it grows it.
