"The government aims to double the farmers' income by 2022 but we won't be able to achieve that goal until we uplift and promote the food processing sector which is also important to provide pure food to consumers, create employment opportunities for people and provide fair price to farmers for their produce," said Sadhvi Niranjan Jyoti while inaugurating ASSOCHAM National Conference on Cold chain technologies, convergence and capacity building.
