| Challenge | Root Cause | Potential Mitigation |
|-----------|------------|----------------------|
| Limited cold‑storage capacity (only 1,200 MT) | High seasonal influx of vegetables & fruits | • Expand cold‑storage through PPP model.
• Promote contract‑cold‑storage with private agri‑tech firms. |
| Price volatility (especially onion & potato) | Weather shocks & market speculation | • Strengthen price‑stabilisation funds.
• Promote forward‑contract trading on e‑NAM. |
| Access to formal credit for marginal farmers (≤ 1 ha) | Lack of collateral & credit history | • Leverage digital land‑records & Kisan Credit Cards.
• Encourage micro‑finance institutions to partner with ABG. |
| Infrastructure bottlenecks (road congestion during peak season) | Inadequate last‑mile connectivity | • Upgrade NH‑19 access road to four lanes (state‑level project). |
| Regulatory compliance (food‑safety, FSSAI) | Small‑scale traders lack awareness | • Conduct periodic training workshops and provide certification assistance. |
| Time‑frame | Action | Expected Outcome |
|------------|--------|-------------------|
| 0‑12 months | • Finalise PPP agreement for a second 2,500 MT cold‑storage unit.
