This book analyses the challenges, potentials and opportunities of agribusiness sector in West Bengal and then builds a strong case for development of fruit and vegetable processing industry to overcome the twin problem of rural unemployment and huge post harvest losses. Written in a very simple and lucid style, the book attempts to document and analyse the complex processes and outcomes related to agri-business management in fruit and vegetable processing sector in West Bengal in particular and in India in general. The thematic issues of constraints to the development of agri-business, opportunities and impacts of policy interventions towards agribusiness sector, covered in this book, are expected to be of interest for a wide constituency, including researchers, agri-business entrepreneurs, rural animators, and policy makers.
