OVER 9,000 FPOs are currently on the ONDC platform.

More than 200 collectives are selling products on platforms such as GeM, while sales of agri produce have also commenced in a significant way via Amazon and Flipkart.

Gujarat-based Babra Khedut Utpadak & Rupantar Sahakari Mandli, an FPO with 1,465 members, has reported sales turnover of ₹102 crore thanks to procurement of groundnut and cotton at MSP from its members on behalf of government agencies.

"We will be expanding our agri inputs business in the current fiscal to further boost the turnover," Nirav Prakashbhai Mathukiya, CEO of the group, told FE.
