July 15, 2025

Amid a crisis looming over the agriculture sector of Kerala, the Pala diocese of the Catholic Church has taken a proactive step to address the crisis by launching a food factory in Pala aimed at procuring crops directly from farmers and turning them into value-added products.

The factory will source produce from various local entities, including farmers' organisations, companies, farmers' clubs, and self-help groups within the parishes. Crops such as jackfruit, tapioca, pineapple, bananas, and a variety of other fruits and vegetables will be purchased directly from farmers at fair prices.

Inaugurating the food factory at a meeting held in Pala, Agriculture Minister P Prasad said that farmers should have the right to set the price of their products and that if they make value-added products, the farmer will get the right to set the price.
