16/09/2024 - François-Xavier Branthôme
A new tomato processing unit worth Indian Rupee 8.42 crore will set up in Kuppam. The proposed unit would be entrusted to the Farmers’ Cooperative Society of the region.

Chittoor District Collector Sumit Kumar announced in early August that the State government is currently working on establishing a tomato processing unit in Kuppam (Andhra Pradesh).
This announcement assumes significance in the backdrop of the promises made by Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu, during his recent visit to the Kuppam Assembly constituency.

 Mr. Kumar conducted inspections at Cheldiganipalle village of Ramakuppam mandal along with Kuppam Area Development Authority (KADA) project director Vikas Marmat. He said that the proposed tomato processing unit would be entrusted to the Farmers’ Cooperative Society of the region. After evaluating the site, the officials held discussions with progressive farmers regarding the processing unit.
The Collector announced that the government would provide 100% financial assistance to build the processing unit, amounting to ?8.42 crore (USD 1.003 million). The president of the Farmers’ Cooperative Society and the board of directors were urged to manage the unit with dedication, ensuring that all farmers benefit from it.
Mr. Kumar mentioned that if the Society’s members participate in the construction, the facility can be completed faster and with higher quality. Engineers from KADA and two members from other departments would oversee the quality, he added.
