Maharashtra soon to get a new “Agriculture Product Process Unit” which will not only increase employment opportunities but also help farmers to get better facilities and a good income. Over 58 percent of the rural households depend on agriculture as their principal means of livelihood.

On 13th October 2017, a meeting with the Financial Investors of Singapore and Taiwan companies was held at the Oberoi Hotel. Chandrakant Patil said, “Maharashtra farmers who cultivate farm product do not get a good income. Therefore, in order to solve this issue, we are planning to start an Agriculture Process Unit in Maharashtra, so that the farmers can get good prices. This will further help in improving their financial condition.” He further added saying, “We will definitely try to get the same type of Food Park available in other states of Maharashtra such as Satara and Nagpur.

The Taiwan and Singapore Representatives said, “India is a massive country, a country filled with youthful people.” Hence, we see this opportunity in a positive way”. They believe that “If this investment is made in India, then it is not only India but also Taiwan and Singapore that will benefit from it.”
