Food Cold Chain Management System – From a Structured Theoretical Analysis to a Conceptual Framework on Perishable Commodities in India

Abstract

Agricultural system always had a transition period. This transition came very slowly from production for consumption to production for marketing or for exchange. Agriculture is characterised by fairly large and year to year seasonal fluctuations in production whereas consumption pattern remains almost same and unchanged. Therefore it is necessary to store and preserve large quantities of farm products for a longer period due to this conflicting nature of demand and supply pattern. Traditional storage structures and practices need to be transmuted for ensuring the quality of farm products. Cold chain management is a contemporary system that rely on modern technologies to control and monitor the temperature of perishable farm products to conserve its freshness and quality throughout the entire supply chain. It is also highly beneficial in price stabilization, proper distribution and marketing of commodities. The present paper focuses on the need of effective cold chain system in reducing the harvest and post harvest losses of perishable commodities.
