The agro-industry provides the crucial farm-industry linkage which helps accelerate agricultural development by creating backward linkages (supply of credit, inputs and other production enhancement services) and forward linkages (processing and marketing), adding value to the farmer’s produce, generating employment opportunities, and increasing the farmer’s net income. This in turn motivates the farmer for better productivity and further opens up possibilities of industrial development.
The Domeabra Agro-Processing center has acquired new equipment to add value to farm products to enhance production to meet market demand targeting mostly female headed households.
