  • Ministry of Commerce and Industry GOI

Abstract

Today there is no credible alternative facility available to a grower to meet the risks of price movements and the art of price risk management is unknown to the small growers. (In this entire report, the Task Force designates a grower upto 10ha of holding plantation land as a small grower). To provide this, the Task Force recommends that an insurance cover may be provided to the small growers and the periodical premium may be shared between the beneficiary and the Government – PSFT, roughly on 50-50 basis.
