Union Cooperation Minister Amit Shah will launch the National Agricultural Cooperative Marketing Federation of India (NAFED) auction portal in New Delhi tomorrow. The launch of the portal is an important step towards strengthening transparency, efficiency and ease of operations in the auction process.
The portal is expected to provide a digital platform for streamlining auction-related activities and enhancing the overall functioning of NAFED in the interest of farmers, member institutions and stakeholders. Ministry of Cooperation informed us that during the programme, Mr Shah will also launch several important digital and farmer-centric initiatives of NAFED.
These include NAFED-KALYAN scholarship for children of farmers, DRISHTI portal for inventory management of pulses and oilseeds and Enterprise Resource Planning portal for strengthening enterprise resource planning.
Later, Mr Shah will chair a meeting with the members of NAFED’s Board of Directors. The Ministry said that during the meeting, a presentation will be made by NAFED on its activities and progress, including action taken on the directions given by the Union Minister during his previous visit and on the future roadmap of NAFED.
The launch of these digital and welfare initiatives is aligned with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of Sahkar Se Samriddhi and the Government’s efforts to strengthen cooperative institutions through technology, transparency and farmer-centric reforms.
