Abstract

In India, farmers still lack real-time information about consumers, market demand and prices, and with the growth of retail and free world trade organized by existing intermediaries in traditional supply chains, agriculture is highly knowledge-intensive, commercialized, competitive, globalized, digitized, and need to rebuild its competitiveness. In the agricultural sector, efficient supply chains benefit both farmers as well as consumers. Also, urban areas are crowded with low quality of life and highly saturated markets. Almost 60% of India's population lives in rural areas, and projections show that these figures will remain the same by 2050. There will be about. 800 million people live in rural India in the 2040-50s, providing the scale and market for the commodity supply chain to thrive. In this way, it is necessary to turn rural India into a group of sophisticated Bibran activity centers. Innovation and transformation are required at all levels of the product, process, business model, and service model. This study mainly aims to find various aspects of the supply chain of agricultural production in Assam and India as a whole. Assam can produce many types of agricultural products, but it has not yet reached an ideal position in terms of supply and distribution.
