1) Formation of commodity groups for semi processing of lime

Bijapur district is one of the major lime producing areas of Karnataka. Nearly 1.45 lakh tons is produced annually. Lime grown here is sold as fresh fruit and the prices vary according to seasons. During glut, there is steep fall in prices and the farmers are forced for distress sales. To fetch better price, one of the solutions in value addition. In view of the competition from the established processing units, establishment of new processing units does not seem profitable and it involves huge investments to the farming groups. Under such situations semi processing of lime with a linkage with established processing unit is a better option. Approach : Women self help groups in the 5 villages of lime growing areas of Indi and Bijapur will be selected. One self help group in each village with 15 members in each group will be formed. These groups will be trained for semi processing of lime according to specifications laid by food industries. Later these groups will be facilitated for linkage with processing units. No. of villages - 5 No. of groups to be formed - 5 No. of women in each group - 15
